just this week:
-- OpenAI killed Sora
-- Disney subsequently cancelled its investment in OpenAI
-- Wikipedia is now banning LLM-generated content
...tell me again how this is all "inevitable" and you have to "get on board or get left behind"?
Working on new magical tattoos for D&D5e for our new book…
My “first ideas that come to mind” are already over 30 ideas 😎🔥
The White Vault is finished! Very proud to have been part of this story over the past few years. Huge congratulations to Kaitlin Statz @ventravis.bsky.social and the amazing team and cast. 🌒
This last week was a lot of work…
Finished our big show, listening party, promo, and all.
Read 8 scripts for the next story.
Finished 2 unrelated episodes in Japanese and English.
Dove into production on a different show.
This week is going to be a bunch of emails. I can already feel it
I think it's funnier this way too
Genuinely amused.
Had an interaction on reddit explaining some of the lore behind The White Vault.
The first reply was basically "you can have your own head canon but you're making a lot of assumptions." 😂 Then I got downvoted
It's almost 2am I just finished catching up with and listening to the finale of @thewhitevault.bsky.social and @ventravis.bsky.social I am CRYING. CRYING. What a beautiful, terrifying, heartwrenching, wild story. Kaitlin was right- stories should have an ending, and that was an amazing one.
No. No, I’m reasonably sure that this is not what he’s saying 🤣
I regularly see people wondering how it's possible that there are so many musicians and writers and film makers and artists from a tiny nation like Iceland.
And the answer is really simple: State funding for art education and artists. I literally get a salary from the government to write books.
Just dark dice is affected, but thank you!
This is a phenomenon wholly unique to podcasting.
Does anyone else swap out episodes of their horror podcast on Friday the 13th with darker alternate versions to confuse their listeners?
...Then replace them with the normal versions the next day?
...Just me?
Just a reminder that today is Friday the 13th....
We have been told that some of the episodes on our horror podcast are different today, and have darker alternate endings.
That couldn't possibly be true, right?
... 24 hours remain to find out.
On this day (technically yesterday), 8 years ago, we sat down to roll the dark dice…
And our lives were forever changes!!
Have me in mind for you landscape painting needs in 2026!
It didn't do its homework and made stuff up.
They also said my band 'Random Encounter' covered Metroid - Which we never have and never will because we love @stemage.bsky.social's works and will never compare.
Also, according to the AI slop'pedia, I wasn't in my band and didn't work on the albums.
Gr*kipedia is inaccurate and dumb...
I'm listed and incorrectly credited to things I had nothing to do with. They flat out made up stuff, without citation, like how worked on @thetruthfiction.bsky.social or Penumbra.
(Great shows - but I didn't)
It's genuine AI Slop and should not be trusted.
If you are working on a TTRPG project, have a friend like @pennylescroche.transtapir.games with you. Because they sometimes remind you not to compromise on your design ideas because it's important to the entire theme.
welcome to the week where decades happen.
It’s harder to say verbally to people who ask, if that makes sense
Seriously, that exit tax is brutal
Me: I'm an immigrant.
Them: When did you immigrate to America?
Me: No, I'm immigrating FROM America.
Them: Like we said.
Me: No, I'm leaving America.
Them: Don't you mean Expat?
Me: No, I am immigrating away FROM America.
Seriously, try googling this. It keeps "correcting" me.

#AmEditing
No one will be the wiser when it is out Tuesday 😎
Gotta say, editing a 2-hour, 8 person, PvP battle and making it entertaining as a podcast will be one of my crowning achievements as an editor if I successfully pull this off.
I'm also really hoping that the final episode hits 25 minutes in length 😅
On Today's "Editing Magic"
I am editing a script where one of the lead actors didn't send me their lines, and hasn't replied to emails/messages in the last month.
... And I am going to steal from every other episode we've recorded to form the sentences I need for Tuesday's release.
This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares)
I know some people are going to hate the stuff I make. They're not going to get my inside jokes, or a messy story, they'll hate the inclusion of diverse collaborators, they'll 1-star bomb us on apple or imdb before an episode even drops.
But I'm not making stories for those folks.
I'm having fun
