@partyinthefront.bsky.socialReposted by @emo-sludge.comHey everyone! So, I've had my commissions closed for a long time, and life has been bumpy, but I think I may have some time to open 1-2 cover slots, depending on volume and deadline, starting soon. Wouldn't mind some fantasy/ttrpg work. Some samples:

@mikebithell.bsky.socialReposted by @emo-sludge.comI think, if I’m being honest with myself, this is the main reason I refuse to touch these things. More so than being environmentally dilligent, even more so than wanting to avoid being a thief. I am very good at my job. I enjoy being very good at my job. I do not want to become less good at my job

@emo-sludge.comSurely everyone will want to play his bespoke game and not their own bespoke game in this fantasy world where taste is also inborn.
@emo-sludge.comGenuinely though, if you've ever been an addict or had one in your life, the delusional problem solving ideas and desire to sell your belongings for more product should be familiar.
@emo-sludge.comHe also thinks Google Earth has pixel perfect street data lol it's like when I was a kid and I thought I could find a way to open fake doors on fake buildings in video games and explore them if I just hit the right button combo.
@emo-sludge.comI think the funniest thing about this is he doesn't seem to know how eBay works. The computer can't pack and ship your stuff. Classic AI freak not knowing how anything works.

@rae.wtfReposted by @emo-sludge.comFYI for any #playdate heads in chat: i help moderate a dev-oriented, no-AI playdate discord server — it opened its doors quite recently, but has already blossomed to over 100 members, which makes my heart happy!
🪶 if you make playdate games yourself, why not come along? discord.gg/SXtWeXrdwg
@2mello.netReposted by @emo-sludge.comYouTube hasn't paid out music streaming earnings to Distrokid for almost two months with no communication, so my income has been cut in half just for fun. It's a startling reminder that the entire streaming ecosystem could just go away overnight because a tech company lets it. Buy albums if you can.
