Melissa Medína: Minnesota Feisty

If you wanna be a full-time Creative, you have to be okay with the fact that you'll spend years honing your craft, devoted to making the equivalent of a perfect soufflé - only to be asked to make mac and cheese over and over again. But you'll live for the soufflé moments. 🖤

We get all kinds of wildlife but they rarely wanna hang out like this guy, he just kept coming back after we ran him off. 😆

✨Spider-Fox, Spider-Fox...Does whatever a Spider-Fox does. Can he swing from a web? No, he can’t, he’s a fox. Look out, he'll eat your face off. Spider Fox! 🦊

This is what happens when we're too smart to believe Tech CEOs, so they have to swindle dumb rich people into supporting their AI, only to fail at that too, so big daddy military industrial complex has to save your business by making you do war crimes & human rights violations.

✨I'm in the Robocop universe!✨

Many thanks to World of Tanks for bringing me back this time to voice the iconic Anne Lewis!

Hey.

Tell people when they do good job.

When you like the stuff they make.

When you like the characters they’ve created.

The stories they’ve told.

Nobody hears it as often as you think bc everyone thinks everyone hears it all the time.

Trust. They don’t.

Tell. Them.

I get muy "let me tell you everything i love about you" real fast 😆

Lol Same actually. We're pretty alright if I do say so myself.

Sometimes when I'm listening to someone talk, a little flash goes off and it hits me how endearing & beautiful this person is when I think of how transitory & unlikely it is that we are here at all.....and then I remember I just had a gummy.

This! 👆👆👆

I'm so excited I get to meet ppl this year! I'll be signing prints of course, but I'm also joining Panel Discussions on AI Ethics for Creators & giving my own talks & classes on AI, Games, & Acting. @scarygoodstudio.bsky.social was even sponsored to attend GDC! Where else should I show up? 🖤

HELL YEAH

I AM FEELING THIS RIGHT NOW AS WELL. 😫

Oh he DEFINITELY does 🤣

RIGHT? The brows add so much sass.

I mean come on Zooka, it's not even fair.
🥺🖤💥

fun with a dusty little tape loop and a hydrophone ✨

Devs already have to crunch or start over at the whim of CEOs & leadership, if the answer to that is to just "work faster" and make games faster, that's how you get inhumane dev conditions, unfinished buggy games rushed to market, & tons of soulless A*I in your games.

I guess I don't see the problem with this? People aren't supposed to blindly support & play an IP forever like it's some lifelong religion. They're supposed to play other games & IPs, be allowed to grow up and out of things. We don't need more lifelong single IPs, just look at the MCU.

He's SO FLUFFY AND SOFT LIKE A LIL COTTON BALL

Yes! He's so sweet & squishy like 95% of the time but at night he becomes a DEMON. 😂

This dog is the most adorable emotional terrorist. Sleep-deprived but happy with 'Zooka. 😂🖤 I hope you have a restful weekend!

I just wrapped vo recording for two big horror games and it's Friday the 13th. My love of Horror has never been so stronk 💪

nobody posted the clip anywhere so i went and dug the whole episode up

I love how the EU has seemed to say "yeah let's do the opposite of whatever the us is doing" per consistently lately. 😂

What even ARE time zones?? Imaginary shackles Thomas! Lol Just kidding. No I totally get it. We've worked with people in Japan, New Zealand, Spain etc so we're flexible but it does take some effort!

Well @scarygoodstudio.bsky.social has officially been around for 2 years and we've done some cool stuff. Just taking a moment to be proud of everyone we've gotten to work with not just for VO Demos but for Game Audio, Animation Audio & everything else we do. 🖤

Twin Cities tow truck driver returns abandoned vehicles to families after ICE arrests Juan Leon sends a "chase" car to check out where abandoned vehicles are located and arranges discreet drop-offs. Since late December, he estimated they have dropped off 250 cars.

ICE has grabbed so many people from their vehicles that there are abandoned cars across Minnesota.

This tow truck driver returns the cars for free as a public service, and he’s been getting death threats.

They hate the helpers.

Which is why must keep helping.
