Got a lot of really exciting real world stuff that's gonna make me a lot of money going on, but I'll save that for another post. Let's talk my August creative plans! I meant to make this post a week ago, but then I spent it playing Gran Turismo 2, watching that boxset of Penn & Teller: Bullshit! I got from the library sale back in June, and recuperating instead. I need to shut off more—2025 will absolutely have more of that. So back in May of last year now, I picked up a grey cat adopt from Read more

Well, August 1st would normally mean the end of the annual art trading extravaganza Art Fight (here's my profile—note that all Art Fight links require a login), but they extended it to the 3rd this year!

I gotta fuckin' write something, this Art Fight stuff is a grind. Conveniently for the journal, to give us two whole posts this month, I have something to ramble about!

Well, we're eleven days into July and I still haven't updated the journal yet this month! Literally all of my free time has been spent lately either writing album reviews (follow the RSS feed, I've got a run of one of day going!), working, and most importantly, participating in Art Fight! I've gotten four attacks done in eight days. One attack every two goddamn days. Here's some highlights: It's been good, really! It's nice to get some more dynamic, character-driven art done, given how much of Read more

I've been meaning to write this post for literally a week now! I'm just...really busy at this point. And likely to fall asleep the moment I get out of work. I haven't talked much about my job on here because I think everyone around me is a little sick of the "Cammy doesn't like his job" carousel even though this one probably legitimately deserves the complaints. At my last two jobs, I was at fault, really—a lot of me being a baby for no reason, a lot of issues with customers and other employees Read more
