If your game has voice acting, then working with the voice actors is half of your writing process. It's not complete until you've heard it interpreted and reimagined by a voice actor. And they always reimagine it in ways that elevate the writing, in ways you never would have imagined yourself.

In an effort to keep favor with centrists in America, Democratic leadership confirmed that they will be avoiding super-effective moves. paletteswap.site/dif...

Animation nerd/snob/evangelist thread (you’ve been warned) 🧵: I’m not seeing the HTTYD remake. I don’t need it. The originals are perfect. But I was curious about the critical reception, and so I read Brian Tallerico’s review. It’s really well-done, and this line right here gave me real pause:

Bunlith: The Witch Upstairs Episode 1 is officially available on Kickstarter! Now that it's finally launched, I can properly announce that I voice the precious pixel kitty, Void!

Wow, Target really doesn't want people to stop boycotting them, huh? I'm already getting horrific flashbacks to the last time I accidentally wandered into the AoE of a Bath and Body Works

just wanted to re-post this messaging that helped win an election

this is a reminder that we dont have to settle for newsom in 2028

Fighting back against AI is great. But please hire more trans women. One would be nice. More than one would be ideal. Zero is… telling.

Someone at Costco decided to make sure every piano at every Costco near me was not only unplugged, but set up nowhere near an outlet, and I feel tragically empty

Hi! I'm one of the millions not getting SNAP benefits this month. Because of that + the fact that I (not a member of SAG-AFTRA) survived the strike by burning my savings rather than working SL6 or NU…my finances are *rough* but not *immediately dire.* I'm open to work with clients of all sizes. ✌🏻

Breaks are important, so I spent this whole weekend reading and playing games and not much else. I think October was 10 pounds of to-do list crammed into a 5-pound container. Remember to rest when you can, it's just as important as productivity!

The anniversary for this just passed, so I'd like to highlight: "Undergrowth" was the first game to use the Game Jam Waiver—thanks in part to 2 people (in 🇫🇮 + 🇲🇾) seeing the value of protecting our actors. Sometimes, a handful of stubborn people is enough to affect change. azufx.itch.io/undergrowth

Support your art friends! 🙏💙✨🎨

This is one of those days where I need to exist in a quantum state in order to get everything I need to do actually done 😅

Indigenous horror may seem new to many, but it is ancient. It is born from stories that carry lessons, warnings, and survival through generations. What is new is seeing those stories retake their rightful space in the contemporary horror landscape. redpopnews.com/13-must-read... #redpopnews

Hey guys, As you know things have been pretty down financially for me and my family. So I've decided to set up GFM. If you can't donate, sharing is just as good. #mutualfunding #GoFundMe

I don't usually do Starbucks, but my mom got me a gift card for the TWST premiere, and they actually brought back the apple crisp drinks, so here we are. My mom is awesome!

I NEED more creators, ie on youtube or otherwise, to be explicitly direct about not using AI. There's a few channels on youtube I watch where they say in the description or even on-screen that they do not use AI, and right now, unless I see that, I can't be sure

On behalf of The 48 Hour Audio Drama Festival, I was tasked with writing a script & directing the cast for this festival. “Found” - Written & Directed by Carl G Brooks spotify.link/05eUkPjaOXb

Check out the audio drama I wrote for the 48-Hour Audio Drama Fest over the weekend! I had a great time directing this group, and Mat kicked ass engineering the whole thing, too! spotify.link/uKqSEXfpOXb

Script's done, with a few hours to spare! I'm gonna take a well-deserved nap now

10 Games to get to know me, list may be subject to change by end of year due to reasons

In a couple of hours, I get to start writing a script for an audio drama jam, got 16 hours to do this and won't get to find out what I have to work with until the event starts, wish me luck!

Brb adding this to my audition song rep and karaoke rotation youtu.be/LP2nqXYwl6Q?...

Yes!!! Rain! Glorious precipitation! BRING IT ON!

Lakitu Reveals That You’re Going To Have To Replay Mario 64 Because He Forgot To Hit the “Record” Button

Is everyone having a good day so far? Make sure to take breaks and stretch every once in a while, you've got this!

I think it's well and good that people showed up for Kimmel regarding censorship (as in the legal sense of the term, not "waaahhh private citizens corrected me"). I ask that you also please defend rainbow crosswalks in TX & FL. That is also censorship. We could lose state funding for having them.

It’s out now on Prime Video, so I can finally announce that I got to provide additional voices for The Royal Cat! Thank you so much Studio Nano for the opportunity to work on this beautifully animated movie!🐱

RIP Drew Struzan A master.

Ah, my favorite weather! I'm glad it started raining early this season!

Whenever indie devs use AI, it hurts their sales potential and retention because it’s a 🚩red flag for generalized unprofessionalism and cut corners. Getting real art from a pro will make you look like a pro.

🔥ROLE ANNOUNCEMENT, BUCKLE IN! 🔥 I'm the English voice of Ortho Shroud in Twisted Wonderland: The Animation! Huge shout-out to @nyavpost.bsky.social, @thereubeh.bsky.social, and so many more. Be sure to catch it on Disney+ October 29th! (I really, REALLY wish I had blue fire emoji for this)

KEEP DRAWING!

Good night, Bluesky. Wishing all of my fellow authors, artists, and other creators all of the creativity, motivation, and self-love that the Internet will hold. So grateful for you. You bring beauty to this world. Don't let anyone tell you differently.

The Orphan Crusher is here to stay. If we don’t feed more Orphans to the Crusher the Orphan Crushing industry will die. It’s time to wake up to the reality of the Orphan Crusher. The Orphan Crusher is worth billions. We need to teach people to use the Orphan Crusher. It’s here to stay.

I didn't make a 2024 videogame visual reel because of the strike, so...here, have both 2024 *and* 2025! For any new folks: hi there! I'm Jett, a British-American voice actor based in California. ✨ Masc, femme, and nonbinary characters ✨ Phonetic analysis goblin ✨ Studio specs et al: jettbarker.com

My brother's album is out in time for Halloween season. I think he might be possessed, actually. Possessed and not sure why everyone is awake at 2am, himself included. open.spotify.com/album/7r4rqT...

It’s so annoying that we all have to just continually point out how rules around/between decorum and violation are applied asymmetrically to vulnerable groups versus the people who are always hassling them, and it’s extra insulting that the people in charge are trying to lol it away.

If eight of my artist/games/writer friends could make $100,000 a year it would be completely life changing for every single one of them. It's hard to overstate how infuriating and inhumane this feels "lol"

Oh yeah, I'm also playing this guy Nathan in the definitely-very-much-not-death-or-destruction-filled Nova's Ship! You should play the heck out of it for several fun surprises! The surprises could be death or sea shanties. Or death. I am very trustworthy. azufx.itch.io/novas-ship #SpooktoberVNJam

I promise, this is a nice game about sailing and pirates with cute children and critters and no awful things happen in it whatsoever 😐

Calico Ghost Town had a facial hair contest, and I got to take home the first place trophy for Best Beard of 2025 on a technicality. Never let *anyone* tell you that your dreams are impossible, and always travel with a big squirrel puppet 😆

Attn creatives. Artists4SafeAI is sending a letter asking @governor.ca.gov to sign SB53, which puts transparency & independent oversight for AI into law. 24 hours left to gather signatures. Add your name here: artistsforsafeai.com Here's more about the effort: artists4safeai.com #aiprotections

Bacially almost all the major black and white characters were born out of homages to minstrelsy. I talk about this in my Character Design classes actually

I will never see Sticker Mule mentioned and NOT share that @printinkling.bsky.social is a superior choice in every way. They're an awesome independent shop and I'd like to see them get SO much business they have to turn projects away.

Pause your doomscrolling and listen to this story.

I'm told Icicle Yeti Cookie got a Bear Jelly suit in Cookie Run Kingdom and I'm wondering if that actually counts as the third bear needed for the Goldilocks combo or not. They're not a real bear, and every special cookie who currently exists got one. Schrodinger's Bear, I guess?
