Probably the oldest illustration of mine that I don’t hate. I think this was done around 2013.

Feeling burned by social media? Now, more than ever, creators and audiences can find comfort in authenticity and community. "One way to forge a connection is to provide a stream of content - a way customers can connect with your brand beyond just buying something." - Unboxed, S1E9

Danni ☀️ @dannibelow.bsky.social · 21/01/2025

I feel social media fatigue intensely nowadays, and all it's done is isolate me from my friends. I'm drawn to the places where it feels most natural to interact with them, but it needs to be a safe place too. Topical - In S1E9, we reflected on how content drives demand (and grows community).

With the holiday season running rampant, we thought: What better time to talk about the overlap of toys and games? 🎁 "Toyetic" is a buzzword that popped up recently. If you're curious what it means, give this episode a listen! 🤔 (Also: Find out what my and Jen's formative childhood toys were 👀)

S2 Episode 3 is live and it's about toys (who doesn't like toys!?) This is a fitting last episode of the year. It might have been my favorite episode to record to date. Nostaglia will do that to you. And maybe that's why Toyetic games are coming back with a vengeance 🧐
