#TTRPG #CastingCall

I'm cooking up a couple of D&D Heist One-Shots for Black History Month. This is about to be so hyped and I'm so excited to be jumping into the GM seat for another project! #TTRPG

Donate to Chip in to help with the cost of existence while I job hunt., organized by Tanya DePass Like many of those in the games industry, I was laid off back… Tanya DePass needs your support for Chip in to help with the cost of existence while I job hunt.

So I did the thing before I chickened out (or came to my senses) and threw up a GFM as a stop gap measure. I hate doing it more than anyone will hate seeing another fund raiser.

It's Filipino Heritage Month!

Bad House Celebrates it by sharing our own series created by @rocketsandpens.bsky.social on our channel. Fabian grew up in the Philippines and their storytelling has been heavily influenced by their experiences growing up in Manila.

I’ve been told by multiple voiceover directors that I could play an anime protagonist. I did not believe it until auditioning for a protagonist this morning that fit my voice print. I now fully understand the assignment. 😂

“This isn’t who we are as a country!”

Black people:

150k views on my YouTube channel. Wow, I never pictured I would be here. I recently committed to becoming YouTube partner because my therapist told me to do it scared and start embracing more of who I am. I started and stopped this channel a many of times. I am committed to this journey.

Uhhhhh one of my YouTube Live Streams is going through something’s. 👀

Reminder, this TTRPG AP casting call closes tomorrow!!! The response as been amazing thus far! #ttrpg #improv #d&d #5e

Tomorrow I head back to grad school 🎓 for Master’s #2. Doing it my way at my school of choice. Kid Ruto is officially in his healing era.

Hi I would love to be considered for this!

I am finally casting for a TTRPG AP show that has been in the works for quite some time. My goal is to get together a super fun table. I am so hyped about this!

I am so interested in this!

Moment of transparency:
This year has been a real struggle. Both mentally and artistically. My artistic expression has suffered terribly, I was dam near down and out, but I had to tell myself "Pick yourself up buttercup, there's a job you have to do." One day I will be Twitch/YouTube partner.

There’re not many people who I can say I hope I have the privilege to work with one day or just meet, but Oscar Montoya is one of them. His inspirational story has so many elements that I related to and I hope to not only meet him in person one day, but to be able to play alongside of him.

OSCAR MONTOYA on Dimension 20, Minx, Migrating from Colombia, Coming Out as Queer, & More! YouTube video by It Takes A Universe

Whether or not you are an artist, you should watch It Takes A Universe. There are so many great interviews with so many brilliant nuggets of information in the interview series that you can apply to you life. Oscar Montoya’s interview is one of those great interviews.

youtu.be/1jJlJaFJJQQ?...

Let’s file these findings under “No” and “duh Sherlock”

Didn’t need a full blown investigation to know it was preventable.

The last election broke something in me. I have 0 patience for nonsense. I am quick to have someone escorted off the premises if they want to talk real slick. That ignorance can be taken elsewhere, because I don’t want to hear it.

Lmao she sitting there looking like a Gross Sister. Hampton Sun count your days. 😂😂😂

Several more lessons that I learned in my big 30s:
3. I want to be a performer, ok cool, but there are a lot of wolves in sheep’s clothing out here in these streets. Protection is key.
4. Knowing my worth and staying true to myself is the most important thing as a performer I can do.

Couple of big 30s lessons I learned from the disgusting things that emerged this week on social media:

1. Trust my gut when something remotely feels off about someone.
2. My social circle being small is a good thing. I am keeping my head down and doing the work to advance my career in private.

They are coming to Fort Worth! Oh it’s a wrap!
