Surely this multi billion dollar costing device that so far is only being used to advertise products that nobody will pay for will turn a massive profit somehow. Let's leverage all the economies of the world on it.

Reminds me of the college years. Work through summer to afford not working during school. Do a little yoyoing to keep the party bus moving on.

Next month marks 3 years since I stopped working to pursue art full time. Im still at least another 3 years away from being good enough to make any mullah from it, especially with how little love my posts usually get.

I may have to dip my toes back into regular people work to keep the wheels going

Man, rewatching mgs4 and @thedavidhayter.bsky.social put out a masterpiece of voice acting. Watching Old Snake slowly degrading in health is rough, my poor boi.

Anybody else doing swordtember this year? Using it as a way to workshop some character ideas.

I really need to hone in on my shape language and start to work towards some sorta style instead of just winging it.
