At UPS to mail a thing and was delighted to hear the dulcet voice of Bing Crosby as I walk up, Don’t Fence Me In. In line, I quip “Ay! UPS rockin’ the Bing!” The clerk gave me a strange look. Whatever, not everyone knows quality. I hum along a bit, finish, leave. The music follows. From my pocket.

It's surreal enough to say I had the privilege of casting and directing the original EN voice of Sailor Moon herself, Terri Hawkes, in an amazing new indie game still in the works. But to say that I had the privilege of directing her in her FIRST VIDEOGAME EVER is, quite frankly, beyond belief.

You have no obligation to defend or explain the behavior of random street protesters. We have a lawless government that is flagrantly violating its legal, moral, even philosophical obligations to us. Everything else is secondary

ICE is a domestic terrorist organization and should be treated as such. Whoever leads the country after this is stamped out better have the courage to do the swift Nuremberg justice that should’ve been done after January 6th.

News from the world of companies using AI to cheat, lie, and steal. Share this story. It is despicable, and what’s worse, in due time it’s going to be tragically typical and unremarkable. Unless we fight them. NOW. www.bbc.com/news/article...

HEY NONNIE, I'M IN A GAME! Section 13 has some of the best writing I've ever seen in a game, and the sessions were outstandingly fun. Love my misunderstood boy Exosuit, AKA ███ ██████. ...Oh hey sup fellow "Problematic Hottie" @frydawolff.bsky.social 🤘 store.steampowered.com/news/app/211...

Cast announcement: ME! I mean obviously me but usually nobody tells me when a thing I'm in comes out or when I'm allowed to say I'm in it. But this time I was told I'm allowed to say I'm in it, and Section 13 is out on Mon 5/26. Oh hey sup fellow "Problematic Hottie" @michaelschwalbe.bsky.social 👋

Finally correcting a tragedy -- enjoyed a wildly-long-overdue in-person meeting with my amazing agent Peter Varano. Literally been almost 3 years since leaving CESD for AVO but I just so rarely leave the wastelands! I couldn't be happier with the team. Here's to the next 3, Peter!

I’m SO stoked! After sitting down with the Boruto Podcast a couple weeks ago, they surprised me with this kickass gift - a Kawaki hoodie! I’ve been looking for an official Kawaki shirt for like two years, and now I finally have one hell yeah 🤘

Strike Talk: The studio proposals are SO grimy. Here's a direct example that they clarified in negotiations: If they prompt an LLM with 'Harrison Ford', he gets a chance to refuse, all sorts of protections, pay, etc. If they prompt with 'Indiana Jones', he gets NOTHING. They can just take it.
