Hello 👋 Monthly proof of life to remind people of my presence here. Here's a family portrait of My Evil Giant Wife, Flop Dog the birthday balloon dog that flops about, and of course yours truly. The other night in the beautiful nation-state of Baltimore.

Not sure if the NEDS crew is on Bluesky, but @unsheathedglory.bsky.social and @dungeonsynth.bsky.social are! They’ll be performing at the Dungeon Skirmish February 28 in Worcester MA Also ft. a DJ set by Phranick (poster design by me)

There is nothing more self-harming than being an artist. Anyway, I have tapes out for my latest album, and a slew of other things. vaelastrasz.bandcamp.com

IT IS BANDCAMP FRIDAY MY OVERLORDS HAVE PUT OUT TAPES OF MY RECENT ALBUM OF SAD AMBIENT NEOFOLK SONGS GIVE THEM MONEY, OR GIVE ME MONEY WITH DIGITAL SALES vaelastrasz.bandcamp.com/album/death-...

People like to bring up stuff like the MCU and the Big Bang Theory as reasons for the death of proper nerd culture, which makes sense, but you can make a strong case that the late 2000s/early 2010s prevalence to make fun of anything 'cringe' was also a key contributor
