Signal boosting this again as well. I'm back on the job hunt and would love to rock at your studio or company.
Social Media, Community Management, and comms work is my wheelhouse, but I would love to take a shot at a Producer or Developer Relations role.
Hey folks, just got the news I'll be laid off mid April.
I'll be looking for concept and cinematic storyboarding gigs and anything else in between. I've gotten to do feature ownership, mentoring, some ad work, texture vis dev: generally cool but invisible stuff. Translating 2d to 3d is my jam.

hey another bill was brought to my attention - it establishes a sort of student bill of rights and implements specific policies for protecting trans students!! go "Support" this bill if u live in WA! app.leg.wa.gov/pbc/bill/1296
this is more likely to matter I think so spread the word :3
Washington State Legislature is considering a bill that would ban gender affirming care for trans youth.
If you live here, let them know we oppose this! Took me like 2 minutes to fill out:

As Compulsion's CM & a Black Southern woman, our game is so much more than just a game to me.
See you in April ♥️
I'd vote for A! Not to say that B wouldn't also be awesome, but chatting about anything and everything during games like this definitely hits that nostalgic/cozy vibe (at least for me).
The famous green owl app Duolingo is going even harder into AI made by stolen content. It's not curated by native speakers so you have no idea if what you're learning is correct. Their algorithm overall tries to hit the happy brain juices instead of helping you learn. So here are some alternatives!
Oh lawd he COMIN'
The Palestinian-made game Dreams on a Pillow is 413 dollars and 13 backers short of respectively 60K raised and 1,000 supporters. Who wants to help push it over towards those milestones?

So, bad news. The studio I just joined, Thought Pennies, has run into some major trouble and laid off most of the staff. That includes me! I am laid off again! Truly, very bad luck. I was only there two weeks before stuff went down.
THE BLACK TTRPG INDUSTRY STARTER PACK!
I've created a starter pack of black voices within the TTRPG space for two reasons. One, for community so black folks can find other like-minded individuals. Two, for visibility & to clearly show that we DO exist.
go.bsky.app/38LPH9G
Alright the initial starter pack is set up. I'll be adding people who reply to this post and remember the cap is 150 and you need 7 to start. Note, bookmark, etc to keep up with this as I add people.
Again it is with consent and opt in for people I know to be added.

I took a bit of a social media break but am back just in time for something very special.
As CM for Compulsion Games (who will be on Bsky soon!), I'm very proud to share our official "making of" South of Midnight documentary - you might even see a familiar face at the end! ♥️

A dark road leads off into the distance with headlights shining on it, a swirling vortex leads into an eye, overlayed on a nebula in the night sky as busses spin through the air. You are entering the Desert Bus zone.
It's happening again! https://desertbus.org/2024/
Each year I help out Desert Bus by making a poster of their antics, that then is sold during the run, gets a BIG version of it auctioned, and helps raise even more for charity.
Check out the start for this year!
