O man, if it was a spell I’m so grateful for the magical blessing 🙏✨ but in all seriousness I’m glad to hear you were able to set strong boundaries as well! It feels GOOD

(3/3) GDC was notably more energizing/refreshing for me this year with this added emphasis on self care. I had some FOMO for the night life, but I still got SO much out of the event without that element. I still feel like I ’got my money’s worth’. 10/10 I recommend this approach.

(2/3) I even scheduled a vacation right after GDC so I had time to recoup & rest incase I ended up getting sick or needing time to recalibrate after the event. Shockingly, I didn’t get sick and I didn’t really need time to recalibrate.

(1/3) I saw a lot of GDC 2024 advice about rest/health & I gave it a go: I took mid-day siestas either in the park or in my room, I wore a mask as much as possible & washed my hands or used hand sani frequently, I didn’t drink or go to parties & I was in bed by 11pm each night

yeeears ago I was reprimanded by a professor for hand-painting over my normal maps to achieve the exact effect I wanted & now it's a revolutionary new workflow. Rather than feeling bitter, I'm actually thankful for this growth/change in perspective because YO IT STILL LOOKS GREAT
Marco Vergantini discussed the production process behind the Mr.Freeze project, explaining how its painterly-like visual style was achieved with a brand-new texturing workflow, dubbed Painted Normal. Full breakdown: 80.lv/articles/texturing-a-s… #art #3D #Maya #zbrush #3dart

This year I broke the rules and put a selfie on my business card because last time the week after I went to GDC I had like 50 business cards on my desk and no idea which business card aligned with which person I spoke to :')

The Centers for Disease Control is no longer recommending that diseases be controlled.
The CDC is no longer recommending Americans to stay home after testing positive for COVID-19, a major shift in policy that comes as much of the country has moved on from the height of the pandemic. trib.al/wpYpdX2

I have never been as hype about an airbnb as the one I will be staying in where I get to share a yard with the host's pet pig, Mango.

7. Using oppression to deny one’s own agency. The use of social justice language to attack & dominate intimate partners is based on the compelling, yet deeply flawed idea that experiencing oppression absolves us of responsibility and agency for our own actions, our own lives.
