I love getting to help indie designers showcase their work. Working with @casperdanbghost.bsky.social to showcase their new card game Back of the House.

Also love having so many amazing folks to pull in and work with in Atlanta. @shawnbanerjee.bsky.social @howdylovedarlin.bsky.social

Thanks to @magis-ghast.bsky.social for the Cobb puppet. I just screamed as Cobb on TikTok for over an hour.

And thanks to @strucci.bsky.social for reminding me close to a full hour in that I should mention that I run a podcast network.

Can't believe @magis-ghast.bsky.social made a fully functioning Cobb puppet. I cannot wait to unleash the ridiculousness that is Cobb on the world now.
