- Trying to stay positive lately and it’s been exceptionally hard. The weather is not helping rn.

- This was genuinely a shocking read — Hiveworks is a huge staple in the webcomic space. I’m horrified reading through this — and hope artists in their press find security.
- The Hiveworks Artist Guild has released a public statement alleging years of labor abuses, financial mismanagement, and misconduct at Hiveworks at the hands of Xellette “Xel” Velamist and Isabelle “Isa” Melançon. Read their full statement at: cartoonist.coop/hiveworks-gu...
- Yeah.
- Every list of best games that doesn’t have Devil May Cry 3 or 5 is factually wrong.

- My dog, me and some cool things I got to work on that came out last year. Onto 2026.
- There’s so much to be done this year. So much I have to get done — I’ve already started sprinting into it.
- Reposted by SON M. 🔜 D.I.C.E.Expect to see a lot of this classic Onion headline, from 23 years ago, over the coming weeks.
- Really baffles me when video games have a lot of non-voiced dialogue but choose not to do *any* SFX to support tone or text scrolling or anything. Just pure silence / minimal ambience. I really recommend, especially indie devs, to never undervalue the importance of SFX.
- Happy holidays!! Did you know you can read all of @istehlurvz.bsky.social and I’s comic ANIMALHEADS for FREE on tapas? Enjoy the season! tapas.io/series/ANIMA...
- You should read one of these really cool comics.
- Time to watch my fave Christmas movie

- People don’t understand than in an era where audiences are demanding more intentionality in their work — genAI actively diminishes that intentionality.
- Need to contract an artist for games related stuff coming start of 2026 and seeing the flood of people joining bsky after the shite news at X is a marvel, despite its tragedy.
- Really feeling these moods lately.

- Reposted by SON M. 🔜 D.I.C.E.Heads up to artists still using Twitter- Twitter is now adding an "Edit image" button under all images posted on the site that allows everyone to feed it into genAI and modify it as they wish with a prompt
- Please tell you’ve played demonschool this holiday. It’s very appropriate for this time of year (darkness) store.steampowered.com/app/1900250/...

- Finally embraced what ANIMALHEADS was threatening and am writing a polycule in my medieval novel, methinks. A toxic one, but one nonetheless.

- This is one of those games that’s gonna last as a MUST play
- Paradise Killer is currently FREE on Epic Games Store as one of their festive free games! 😱 May the Silent Goat walk with you! 💗💜💙 store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/paradise-ki…
- I used to talk a LOT about spite being the biggest motivator to achieving the impossible against all odds in games. With this year ending, I’ll say spite is FUN and a good piece of entertainment — but the thing that will keep you alive is making games with people likeminded. With people you enjoy.
- One of the best series out there right now!absolutely needs to be on your read list!!
- You can pickup three issues of my new ongoing series with @morganbeem.bsky.social, The Author Immortal, right now at your local comic shop or digital. A beautiful watercolor portal fantasy that explores death of the author, identity, and what happens when you outgrow stories that raised you.

- The urge to constantly convince close friends to do omakase tasting experiences with me.
- THE HOLLOWED NIGHT #2 is seeping through the mail towards those who backed the kickstarter! Thank you for supporting this small, campy action comic about a bunch of supernatural creatures trying to kill a monster hunter! Here’s to another year!
- Reposted by SON M. 🔜 D.I.C.E.As a multiple language speaker it's also frustrating to see people using AI for translation because the English speaking world tends to treat translators like workers for hire instead of co authors of text and this feels like more of it. Translation at the literary level is creative work. (2/?)

- THE HOLLOWED NIGHT #2 is arriving to some backers now and it’s so beautiful to see!! 😭💖
- People are tired of “witty” protagonists but I haven’t played an RPG that truly let me be a fucking clown.
