Appropriate, but based on the cricket orchestra that was 2025 I'm going to have to press X to doubt.

i'm having a lovely last day of the year and everything is exploding outside so i coded some fireworks today! absolutely no concern for performance this WILL make your phone heat up orteil.dashnet.org/fireworks.html

T-minus 3.5 hours to find out if all my pre-programming makes sense and flows smoothly. It's tough when you're handing it off to be filled with secrets.

As patches set upon a little breach Discredit more in hiding of the fault Than did the fault before it was so patch’d.

We're finally getting around to playing the one-shot I made a while back, inspired by 200 word RPGs. Our stream is this Saturday, but you can getthe current rules for free over on our Patreon page: www.patreon.com/posts/major-...

It's start of a new chapter - but first, the end of a long one! Thanks for 10 fantastic years, Twitch community!

Which trailers excited you from The Game Awards? I don't seem to be the target demo for this year's trailers, but I liked the joy in a few: - The Free Shepherd (dog!) - Orbitals (80s anime co-op!) - Coven of the Chicken Foot (old witch + monster friend!) - Out of Words (stop motion co-op!)

We're moving & having a marathon to celebrate! On December 20 & 21 we'll be hosting extra-long streams on our YouTube channel to kick off our switch to our new streaming home. To Twitch, we say: Thank you, goodbye. Sat Dec 20: One-shots & game shows! Sun Dec 21: WtA: Montreal by Moonlight Ep 100!

So uh, it's been 2 months and still no batteries in stock. Hello from my new (non-pixel) phone. Please catch me up on the best of Bluesky since (and including) Halloween!

Vanishing off the municipal electors list? Not great. It taking less than 5 minutes to get verified from the comfort of my home? Super great.

Not a bad view from just outside the venue.

This. The Pixel 7a's battery is busted. Thankfully it seems I can get a free replacement, but watching my phone go "70% - warning low battery - 18% 15% - 9% - 7% - powering off" before my eyes as I'm trying to figure out how to get home at night in a transit strike has been "fun".

Lovelies, meet Brian the Bard! You'll be crossing paths with him on and off throughout the 2025 edition of Loktober, starting tomorrow! #inktober #inktober2025 #loktober #dnd #dnd5e #dndart #rpg #ttrpg #fantasy #fantasyart

Two gig opportunities have come up this week but require resume reformats I don't have time for due to tech week. Do I just send my default and hope, or wait for when I have time despite the gigs being quite last-minute postings?

Talking Silksong before the show? ★★★★★ I've had a lot of great artists on my comedy gigs this year, yet they somehow keep getting better.

every time

Today's gigs: From rehearsals in a room behind a pretty chapel (probably deconsecrated?) to a comedy show in a gritty club (I love it but it's not a fancy place).

Not me checking the news page of @remgrandmtl.bsky.social daily to see whether they've announced the launch date yet. I am once again transiting around the mountain to get to work, whereas I'd be able to take the REM right through it... Soon™

Putting the Fit in our Honda Fit. One hundred-player live-streamed-with-commentary card tournament coming right up! @netrunner.nullsignal.games 's Americas Continental Championship @ Montréal kicks off at 1:30pm today. Catch it all on youtube.com/@nullsignalg...

Canadian coins. Toonie. 1/5

yeah

I have a serious case of the Weird - despite having known the lyrics to American Pie for decades, my brain kept trying to shove "maybe Vader someday later" into the chorus.

That'll be me in two weeks! Combining my live event and live stream skillsets for the very first time, we've got a great team behind the tournament.

I seem to have gotten one question wrong on my final exam. Alas, I'll finish with a 99% Learning Java: complete.

I just saw a REM train passing through my home station! It was so quiet. And too quick for me to react and snap a pic. I'm ridiculously excited for this network to open more fully this autumn. 10 minute walk + 10 minute ride into the heart of downtown? Yes please.

Me: Makes sure to hit the power switch before pulling the IEC out of a computer tower. Also me: Mild panic when the computer doesn't power on after being moved.

This is a clipboard history appreciation post

My last living musical hero is still my hero but unfortunately no longer living. RIP to the great, great Mr. Tom Lehrer.

As is tradition.

This audience is so sweet. We've had great audiences all festival but this group is holding on to every word, laughing lots but quieting down again in eagerness to hear more. 10/10 would work this show again any day.

Last day for me, enjoy the view from the stage.

Ok but no joke I just finished working 28 out of the past 36 hours and I'm... Fine. I've been listening to this EP once a day and it's like a natural slow-release energy source. Solidground is definitely my favourite, but not by much.

Know any women, nonbinary folks, or trans people (around Montreal) who want to make their first video game? Applications for the Pixelles Make Games program are open! It's free! And no experience required 🙌 More info: pixelles.ca

The Red Set™ stands ready for the closing week: 4 days, 10 shows, 12 performances.

There's something oddly reassuring to me about car radios still losing signal in long tunnels.

hi there! i'm an artist and illustrator who loves working with colours and cute things 💮 🎨: cargocollective.com/chanartings ✉️: [email protected] thanks for your time! #PortfolioDay #KidLitArt #Illustration

Put on a new EP this morning while my coffee brewed and was fully energized halfway through the second track. 3rd track mentions staying up all night so I'm pretty sure I've found the solution to the upcoming week's late nights. ☕🎶 open.spotify.com/album/3m39bS...

JFL MTL 2025 kicks off in just a few hours!

An alert to all creatives using #WeTransfer. Basically, stop immediately! As of August, they will begin scraping everything you send for AI purposes (see the new paragraph in their Terms and Conditions below). If, like me, you’re a voice artist, they’ll clone your voice. Avoid at all costs.

Finally starting to collect my creations into one central place. Ugly placeholder website until I deem the domain name & site hosting costs worth the investment: Sites.google.com/view/zen-r0b0 Expect some embedded JS applets Soon™

Ugh. But #freeCodeCamp seems to have forgotten everything I did yesterday, breaking what would have been a 60-day streak today. Oh well, time to start a new one.

Just finished my last bit of Java coursework before the exam in August. Back to JavaScript! I may well have some silly little web apps before summer is officially over.

Purged all my Meta apps just to be forced to install WhatsApp for work. Looking forward to deleting it again in 18 days (and then reinstalling it 340 days after that).
