iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

to this day some of the best art in Magic has come from the player rewards cards. I used to dream about owning the full art Cryptic Command

Cryptic Command by Wayne England from the 2008 player rewards cards

I was doing my annual replay of Pokemon white 2 when I found this hot pink bitch named Minccino - her name is now Cappa and she’s the second ever full odds shiny I’ve ever encountered

A random pink creature appeared - it’s a shiny Minccino

My first novella is in the hands of a seasoned horror beta reader (my buddy), I’m talking with a cover artist, and all of this is making me wanna hurl

Pim lies in his own filth. The weight of his sins is slowly drowning him.

had a great moment in Townfall this morning where I opened the door to the clinic but didn’t realize the rolling gate would make the loudest noise possible and attract the fucking axe head monster to rip me limb from limb I was yelling “fuck fuck fuck OPEN OPEN OPEN”

No, I'm sorry but we are not doing this "widely agreed upon bad movies were actually good," discourse for 6 of the worst movies ever made by humans.

I’m doing too much with this story. And by too much, I mean there’s more than 3 characters. This’ll be the first time I sit and plan shit out like an adult

a new silent hill always means emotional devastation and the most delicious atmosphere of all time set to gameplay that’s like the boys at Konami just remembered how to make a video game

my boy had a righteous shift in the “fuck I can’t find the one item I need” factory last night for Townfall

I don't google stuff when I game unless I really get to
THAT point
I've been running around tbis stupid fucking town looking for an item I missed, went full circle and wound up back where I started and finally gave in and googled
The missing item was literally just in the place I started

Moral here is that my friend and I are fucking morons

“With AI I can finally achieve my dreams of being an artist and creator!” No. You can’t. There won’t be a learning curve for you. There will never come a time where you understand why one word works better than the other or why you should cut that sentence. You simply are not creating

RIP to Chris Christie’s 2028 campaign, murdered by an octogenarian mere hours after launch

Joyce Carol Oates • @JoyceCarolOates
really, this is a serious question: why on earth would Chris Christie imagine that anyone, anywhere, ever would want him to run for President? what sparks such a delusion? granted, his wife might enjoy having him out of the house & on the campaign trail; but better just get an inexpensive hobby instead.

It’s done. Psychopomp and Circumstance is done. It took so long because I didn’t want to reread it after editing it only to discover that it sucked ass I’m happy to say that it doesn’t suck ass Ebook soon. Softcover soon.

A poster offers what is, honestly, a bad opinion. But this is the beauty of discourse! I disagree and lambast them! They disagree with me and lambast me in return! The world spins! I yearn for release!

if they kill off Jace Beleren I’ll actually be sad that Aleksi Briclot media promo of the original Planeswalker card is half the reason I got into the game

sometimes I don’t like writing very much, especially when I try to do too much. That’s why there’s been a lot of articles recently bc they’re easy to churn out and don’t need to be as focused. Still, I’m working on a lot of stories, and PnC is about to be done
