In honor of Inktober (if that's still a thing), I'll share a couple of pieces that I designed several, SEVERAL years ago. Does the work still live up?

A collection of photos from "Inktober 2017", all drawn by the one and only Stellar Synthesizer. The sketchbook on the right is still being used to this day.

Generative AI is government sanctioned corporate piracy. Enacted on millions of unconsenting artists, at an industrialised scale that is incomparable to any other unregulated illegal market on earth. Including but not exclusive to the global drug trade.

Sometimes I see how much more attention Brazilian game developers and artists be getting with their projects online, and I wonder how much more reception I'd get if I lived in Brazil.

Practical Magic 2 was such a faithful continuation of the events of the first movie. I enjoyed every moment in this film, and the ending made me tear up a bit. 🥲 Also, Sandra Bullock is still dazzling, oh my God.

I'm really not going to make myself present for, "friends" I've been giving, and giving, and giving onto and they wouldn't do the same for me.

Oh, nearsightedness? Nah, I just have the "bilinear filter" of my eyes permanently turned on, it adds to the immersion.

That Kirby game in the direct honestly saddened me. It legit looks like a rehash of 3D Nintendo games released between 2017 and 2022. So far the only Switch 2 game I still wanna play is Air Riders...

With my game being fully ported into Game Maker Studio 2, and Nerdvana on the horizon, I'm seriously going to shake things up in my artist career going forward. It's time to make closure to projects going on since the last decade.

It's nice to hear when my close friends express their experiences in going to anime/video game expos and conventions, despite me not having an income to reflect experiencing such a luxury.

Bob "Onigiri" as he appears in Tekken 8. He is clearly referencing Terry Bogard from Fatal Fury, saying, "Okay!"

Dolly is also a reminder that we should strive to move in a way that once we leave this earth people want to celebrate our lives and not relish in our deaths.

Dolly's passing reminds me of how many people despised Beyoncé's Cowboy Carter album just because it was "country". Those same people better have gotten smacked by this point. Dolly was an angel. 🕊️🪦

I swear being a solo game developer is not easy. Some of the most tedious coding tasks can take HOURS. And it's all for the sake of performance improvement and platform accessibility.

I still get reminded of Jawanta from time to time...that man really wanted to be there for me when I was in love with that narcissist. I really wish I could've been there for him when he was struggling with himself.

Everybody thinks dating in their city sucks. There is no city where people are happy with the dating selection. For every person saying I wished I lived in NYC or ATL dating would be so much easier, there are 50 people in those cities saying that the dating scene is trash.

Good morning. You can’t complain that making friends is hard when you put 0 effort into doing so. It’s hard for everybody, sometimes you gotta do shit ya don’t wanna do. But if ya want it, go forth and figure it out to the best of your ability

Chicago knows how to party for Juneteenth. We were outside all day. Between everyone at the Obama Center, everyone at the lake popping fireworks and BBQing, everyone doing yoga at the Dusable Museum, the festivals, the music, everyone had so much fun. This was the best Juneteenth ever
