This is also the reason the abbreviation for ‘hertz’ is ‘Hz,’ as it’s named after Heinrich Rudolf Hertz.

I mean, I confirmed in my head that I’m definitely not someone who would end up in foley full time, but I could definitely do more poking around ADR. 😁

So much fun! We all had the same short sci-fi cartoon to work on in small teams, and everyone had such different audio skills and interests (composers, VAs, hobbyists, etc), so when we mixed everything this afternoon, the creativity was awesome!

When we cede control of our written voice we lose the ability to accurately describe our reality and we become lost. Your word choice is your fingerprint. Your sentence structure is your pulse.

Spent the weekend doing an intro intensive for foley and ADR (engineering, not voicing). I’ve always had huge respect for these two audio disciplines, but after trying even this little bit, I’m gonna boost that to IMMENSE respect!

This is GORGEOUS! I love that soft expression you gave Lodi in the bottom panel! Soooooo good! 🥰

I feel like our little Research Optus
buddy should be the next Destiny plushie.

…Is there supposed to be a new audio file in Veil Containment? I could have sworn I read somewhere that there’s a new voice line there about Siva helping build Neomuna, but nothing’s triggering.

Sooooooo, I have a flashing ‘arms week featured quest’ that’s telling me to speak to Lord Saladin in the Tower…is the dude having coffee? A bowl of noodles? Harassing Shaxx?

Noooooo! 😭 that’s massively inconvenient. But thanks so much for the info!

Um, is the vault broken in the Tower for anyone else? Like you can take stuff out, but not put anything in???

*Heavy breathing* why did none of you tell me that the Net-Purr shell was up for dust this week??

This shell is ADORABLE, but it comes w/the biggest missed opportunity for an audio treat. To have it make a little digital meow when you call it, like the shark floaty squeaks, wld have been perfection

Both leads being lesbian, or a lesbian/ bi/pan combo are great, so long as the bi/pan partner doesn’t magically experience a ‘true lesbian awakening’ when said bi/pan character comes into contact with her lesbian partner’s Dazzling Pussy Of Unlimited Possibilities.

…Hey, queer romance readers of Bluesky - can anyone recommend Christmas-y, wlw coming home and falling in love with a small town gal books in the style of Ashley Herring Blake’s work? (I already have her ‘Make the season bright’ in my TBR pile.)

All I want to do is curl up with a Hallmark-style Christmas romance, but wlw (at least one lead being authentic bi/pan strongly encouraged), and eat gingerbread people…or animals…or pieces of houses…I’m not fussy, I just want good quality gingerbread in my face right now. 🥺

people are going to go find their entertaining escapism elsewhere, if Bungie withholds the entertaining escapism people have expected since Forsaken! The damn numbers will shoot up for Renegades, and then drop off in their 2nd half if there’s another story desert like we currently have!

I swear to Bob, if I read one more smug ‘the player numbers are SO LOW. The game is COOKED!’ so-called article, I’m going to start rage vomiting motes. It’s the first cycle in a new way of presenting content, and we’ve gone from a steady interactive tv-like story line, to a story desert. OF COURSE

a stuffed animal is sitting at a table with a plate of donuts . Alt: Miss Piggy slams her head onto the large, posh desk in front of her, enacting a classic head-desk of frustration. Just in front of her strike zone is plate of two glazed donuts.

I had a passionate, multi post thread going about how Destiny players aren’t fleeing the game, they’re reacting to a dirth of story content, and I went to double check a point of contention on Google (something I’ve done plenty of times before)…and BS just nuked the entire thread.

Happy Thanksgiving, Canada.

I’m legally required to state a) the previous tweet was for entertainment purposes only, b) I do not intent to inflict property damage on inconsiderate coworkers, and c) I am referring to the 1926 version of Mary Poppins that is currrently in public domain in the United States.

Changing a department radio station when said radio is already on, and the station is clear and easy to hear is how you get a tire slashed.

Not asking if anyone was actually listening to that first station is how you get two tires slashed.

I’m not tense. I’m Mary Fcking Poppins in her snapped era.

I’ve honestly never heard the first pronunciation. Both types have always been ‘PRY’, for every person I’ve heard use them, even on tv dramas and documentaries. 😅

To everyone who witnessed me jamming out in the traffic to Enter Sandman, Thunderstruck, Wasteland, Can’t Stop, and finally, Californication, know this - I do not apologize, and it will happen again.

Can confirm, it is the best tea box. And more importantly, goes to a great cause!

It should be illegal in this day and age of effortless Ai manipulation, to require students to sign away their rights to their likeness if the school takes a promotional photo in class. Even for a weekend workshop.

I’m looking at you, VFS.

That’s good to know, thank you!

…

Really??? That little mission with all that ‘we don’t know how this happened/they’re taking our shit/oh look red war cabal from another time line’ exposition WAS IT???

Thanks so much clearing that up. I thought I was so out of it when I couldn’t find the next story step.
