Anyone else going as Pumpkin Hill from Sonic Adventure 2 for Halloween this year or just me? 🎃⛰️ The costume has a treasure hunting minigame where you can move Knuckles across the “level” and the radar necklace will blink as you get closer to the hidden emerald in the pockets 💎 I love Halloween!!

I’m building a team.

One of the best show on television sounds like it's coming back hitting hard.

5 Days left! #Literaryagents, #editors, come find over 200 amazing kids-YA graphic novel pitches and #KidlitGN .com

I've been writing a monthly newsletter for 6 years now: each one ends with a link to a Cool artist's website (that is not an IG account). That's 72 Cool artists to discover SO FAR. The goal is to make a page on my website dedicated to the people who have inspired me. It's coming along!

Bookmark websites, make a list, create a blog roll, write down portfolio URLs in a text file, a blog post, a chat message, anything! Not only does it make you type/remember the artist's name (as opposed to scrolling by) but it encourages us to keep making and maintaining a website.

i say slow mind that child, takes 2 hours to watch sixty minutes

Took my students on a trip to Graffiti Alley & surrounding areas to talk about environmental storytelling. All the signs of the garment district, the security measures, the gentrifying vs street & community effects, the hidden people... One student happily said "I feel like a detective!" Sweet!

Share your art and nationality! Picking some pictures inspired by my city.

This 1-2 punch of Asgardian annuals I think was my introduction to Art Adams, who has the opposite of same face syndrome. So many well realized characters. Fun stories but the art was miles above what I was used to.

The amazing, but short-lived Vidiyo line had enough Daft-Punk adjacent pieces I made a little off-brand robot rock a while ago. The promise of new stuff to build is magnifique.

For Marvel, I bought a module with the X-Men in it. It starts with all but one character in the danger room, and it says "take 1 player aside & let them know they are controlling the danger room for a fun reveal" Every time I tried, the other kids hounded us going to another room. Relentless aholes.

My first 5 TTRPGs Red Box D&D (read, never played) 1. Fighting Fantasy books Made Gamma World characters, never played 2. AD&D 3. Marvel Super Heroes (2 minutes before a fight broke out) 4. Spy game my friend made up Made Vampire characters, never played 5. West End Star Wars (1 time)
