This weekend I finally hit 20 with my second character. I did a quick little drawing of a Titan this afternoon to commemorate it.

The first iteration of today's post is a good example of how I became known by this moniker. I am at home, and very sick, and occasionally a cat "helped" with the typing, but even so: I set myself toward the feverish resolution of these errors. "Feverish" is a double entendre there. Chrome is trying to tell me that entendre isn't a word, but I entend to stick with it. Also, it wanted me to change "prostrate zombie" in the post to "prostate zombie," which, I mean... tell me more.

I'm still trying to figure out if I'm a Dying Light person. You may be surprised to learn that I have a neurotic compulsion as relates to some aspect of a game, I'll pause while you absorb the shock, but if a game has co-op I always wonder if I'm "doin' it rong" playing it in single player, with neither co nor op. Sometimes I don't get back to games if I can't find a partner. It happens.

It's Monday and that means it's time for another sketchdump. I've got a bunch of stuff from the last week to share with you. I've also had a few people ask if I could talk a bit about my process when I'm sketching. I'll try and do that this time for those interested.

One function of age is that you have the "opportunity" to perceive cyclic phenomenon.

Joystiq was the last gaming news site I still maintained a bookmark for. I don’t have much to say about it except that I hope the folks there land on their feet.

So I think I need to transform into IT Dad and start controlling some access at the Router Level; a week without regular sleep transformed my son into some kind of marmot. I solicited tactical advice from others in the caretaker continuum, and learned that not all advice is equally useful.

I had a pretty busy week what with PAX South and all but I still managed to do some sketching on the flight down here to Texas. My goal is to post sketches every Monday so here's a look at some Daughters I drew on the plane.

When I was first in Rome, like 12 years ago, people spoke Italian constantly. Basically all the time with the Italian. I expected someone to wink at me eventually and be like, aw, we're just joshing. Come on everybody, let's all speak the sweet English that we secretly crave.

What constitutes "amazing" for you is dependent on a number of factors; having one's awesome-ometer calibrated by the modern world almost certainly has an effect on your affect. I have to say, though, I love the idea that he is already bored with 3D printing. And I'm glad of it, because I need him to invent the next thing while my sensing organs are still moist.

PAX South kicks off tomorrow and Brian asked if I would share our merchandise offerings.

I talked about some of this stuff a couple weeks ago I think, this Jackbox Party Pack stuff, but I've run a couple experiments in the meantime and it's only cemented the necessity of owning this game. Oh! And Gabriel is bad.

So, if you have been around since the first teetering steps of the consumer Internet, technically nothing should startle you anymore. Even if a novel, specific instance of a thing occurs you should be able to place it in or near one of the holes this medium has already gouged in your psyche. But a website that lets you create arbitrary dildos you can then 3D print on your 3D printer and subsequently… admire (?) has no place in my taxonomy.

I want to give you all a heads up and let you know the comic might look weird for a bit. What’s going on? Well I’m trying not to suck anymore.

There will be a bunch of new pins dropping at PAX South next week and I've got the details for you:
