hoping to see some game dev friends this week! reach out and say hi :-)

I picked up a stack of tapes at a thrift store. Some things I'd seen before: Holiday Inn, Mission: Impossible, As Good As It Gets. Others, were new to me: Les Girls, Beat the Devil, Intolerable Cruelty. The latter had a "1-Day Rental" sticker from who knows when prominently displayed. I left it.

picked up a CRT from a record store in Little Tokyo. The store was on the second floor, inside of a bar called Hello Stranger. The TV was free; the man getting rid of it wanted a "more vintage looking one", this was one was taking up space. I pulled my car around and put on my flashers.

ah, my favorite holiday tradition has arrived: the letter from my landlady informing me they're raising my rent by $100 a month starting in 2026

this is a great deal from one of my favorite independent publishers! get on it

maybe i am going insane

I spent the better part of a day driving around town to pick up a CRT and a VCR and RCA cables and when I finally got everything all hooked up the first thing the VCR did was eat the tape lol RIP Independence Day, you didn't deserve to go out like that

His Story 🤷‍♂️

Chatting with Future Class inductees for my latest at @theguardian.com. They paint a pretty clear picture of the perils of performative allyship. Thanks to all who spoke with me, and always, to Keza for the chance to do important work!

WHEN THERE’S TREASURE BEHIND THE WATERFALL: Oh wow. Yes, very clever! Waterfall treasure! No one’s ever done that before. Lazy jackass WHEN THERE’S NO TREASURE BEHIND THE WATERFALL: Wow. Too stuck-up to put treasure there huh? Too much of a fucking ICONOCLAST for that? Piece of shit. FUCK you

Watched the pilot episode of Friday night lights just to feel something

KRAMER: I'm hunting him, Jerry JERRY: Who? KRAMER: My friend Bob Sacamano. He sacrificed the Band of the Hawk to become one of the God Hand. Now I'm marked with this Brand of Sacrifice and haunted by demons. GEORGE: You live a fascinating life, don't you? KRAMER: [wild hand gesture] Oh yeah

honestly it's wild how feeling more stable in your situation can make creativity easier.

Putting on one of my dads old records while I do some writing and wishing I’d talked to him more about the music he liked

-i'm going to swing by a restaurant and drop off a resume -oh thats weird my printer isn't printing, let me troubleshoot -huh the normal troubleshooting didn't solve my problem, let me get on a chat with customer service -oh no, its been two and a half hours and my printer still wont print

my life is so not what i thought it would be eight years ago and that is really weighing me down today

A few years ago I bought that printer that everyone swears by- the Brother laser printer/ scanner thing- never given me an issue. And then today it starts acting up out of nowhere. is this the singularity

i'm inadvertently having a hot Cronenberg summer- watched A History of Violence, The Fly, Scanners, and Videodrome within the last few weeks. i've got the brood and Cosmopolis on deck, and I'm extremely eager to watch Crimes of the Future. Incredible director

When I was a kid for my birthday parties I would write and host a video game quiz/ trivia show for my friends in the vein of jeopardy or wheel of fortune. The winner would get "first controller" on the n64 and the honor of choosing what games we would play first

Can't post the video because it's slightly over three minutes long but for #portfolioday I wanted to highlight my hosting sizzle reel that the fantastic @michaelbarryte.bsky.social edited for me. Right there on my website :-) Consider me for hosting, event support, or writing gigs! www.camdaxon.com

My best friend was the head of communications for USAID in Ethiopia, Kenya, and Rwanda for over eight years. He wrote about what the agency's dismantling means and how the government failed to communicate the mission of USAID to average American archive.ph/xJsib

These are the kinds of notifications I like receiving @aftermath.site

what you want to do is put an impossible amount of pressure on yourself to “succeed” and tell yourself constantly that you are wasting your “potential.” do this until you die

Good sign #abolishice #fuckice

you know that feeling when you bend back a fingernail really far a little queasy, a little bracing you can feel it thrill down your hand into your arm i feel like that all the time
