All the cool kids are doing it, so allow me to re-introduce myself.

I'm Brian, photographer, gamer, Twitch streamer, and silly person. I share my photography here (some NSFW), and also like to share occasional brain droppings.

You can find me all over the web via Carrd: brianjfrench.carrd.co

New ISP's come and gone and has connected me to fiber (which was already here from the previous owners, just needed to make sure everything was still working after having been shut off for 3 years). Did a speed test. I should never have to worry about bandwidth issues again for Twitch streaming.

Companies just can't resist shooting themselves in the foot using the "think of the children" excuse, can they?

So it finally happened to me in a D&D game -- my character made an attack roll with advantage, so I rolled my two d20s...and they rolled a 1 and 2.

Dice jail got crowded.

People are so stressed out and traumatized from the last decade, going all the way back to 2016 that they’re turning their brains off, especially online. Lashing out in unthinking anger even at friends they should show grace to, isolating themselves, and not challenging themself in art or life.

Someone liked an #aceo I did of #katemulgrew as Kove from over ten years ago I almost forgot about. I did this and one of #janeway I was able to give her at #startrek Las Vegas. Good memories! 🥰 #atc #sketchcards #watercolor #inks #artistsofbsky

In case you have a mind to watch something that isn't a 4-hour parade of advertisements with some occasional football, the 2nd and final stream of my Stray playthrough is up on my YouTube channel. Surely a cat's more entertaining. youtu.be/dJBB6sjd1Hg

the magic of the Muppets is that there are two fourth walls. they constantly break the one that reminds the audience they are performers. they NEVER break the one that reminds the audience they are puppets. this dynamic is the key to their entire comedy style
MY KIDS: so why are there muppets in the AUDIENCE

ME: THE CONCEIT!! IS THAT THEY'RE PUTTING ON A VARIETY SHOW!!! IN A WORLD WHERE MUPPET AND HUMAN COEXIST!!! YOU ARE WATCHING A DOCUMENTARY!! FILMED!! IN REAL TIME!!!

So weird that many millions of us are going to watch a 4-hour or so parade of advertisements with some occasional sports and even a short concert thrown in to break up the barrage of said ads.

The cat shenanigans of Stray are done, and so the next game I'll be doing is one from my childhood, a RARE first-person shooter, and the only game I've ever beaten in this franchise -- Turok 2: Seeds of Evil! Join me next Friday as I begin my quest to take down the Primagen.

Internet seems to be cooperating, so let's give the 2nd and final part of my Stray playthrough a try (because we're absolutely finishing this tonight)-- come stop by and watch me play as an adorable cat! www.twitch.tv/eroivas

Small chance of streaming on Twitch tonight and finishing my Stray playthrough, otherwise I'll be streaming it on my Discord.
I'm now in the process of changing internet service providers because these sudden drops in upload speed to nearly 0 (mostly in the evenings) are unacceptable.

Anything helps right now so I can get food and pay bus fare.
Getting low on funds and won’t be getting my first paycheck until sometime in February. If anyone would like to help toss some coin my way to get food and stuff, that’d be awesome~🥹
