EVERY SINGLE PART of a lily is toxic!
Petals, leaves, pollen, the water in the vase.
You can celebrate someone other ways besides killing their cat.
I worked as a vet tech for 10 years. Let me assure you, you don't want to see your cat go through this nightmare.
Hell yeah!
A photo collage of a buff, shaggy haired soldier. There are 3 images, 2 where he is standing/walking, and the last where he is holding up a large stone. In the middle is a picture of myself. The words Demons Love and Logan Smith are featured.
💪Role Announcement 🫡
It finally happened, I voiced a character named Logan 😂😂. Honored to join the animatic/animation series, Demons Love as the kind & strong Logan Smith!
I already love this guy so much! Thank you to @roddydoodles.bsky.social & @demonslove4ever.bsky.social for casting me! ❤️
I'm not a technophobe; I just believe in creating and using tech responsibly. If genAI was trained on public domain works only, ran on clean and sustainable energy, and was deployed to help streamline creative labor instead of fully replacing it, I wouldn't be so vocally against it.
The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”
That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.
Why can't people wake up? 70% of the human beings that ICE takes have no criminal background. Grass-root efforts aren't enough to dissolve this institution if the average person and mainstream media only start to care when children are taken. Which has been happening for awhile!
bro there’s a gofundme to crowdfund attorney fees for a preschooler who was kidnapped by our federal government and shipped across state lines and his senator is posting about high school hockey while every other elected official is debating whether to give a zillion more dollars to the kidnappers
THE NEW YEARS SONG COVER IS OUT!
Sirius Cover Artwork. Description: Lucero Costello posed beside a Red Wolf while their eyes glow in the darkness of a cardboard box. Also Luceros wolf-form stripes and scars also glow across their body.
Uploading a song for new years on my singing channel!
An English Cover of Sirius by Kisida Kyoudan & The Akeboshi Rockets!
It's been a long time coming and SEVERAL re-dos. But I'm not touching it for a while after this because I have a singing backlog because of it.

You've come so far and will only go further! Proud of you!
Ben Diskin lays out exactly how the current initiation system works with joining the Union. This is important to understand for anyone pursuing Voice Acting as a career and for anyone when they audition for projects listed as SAG-AFTRA.
Don't put down your own work. Plenty of people want to devalue you and the things you Make. Don't help them do it.
Some advice from a couple of years ago that I still think most creative people need to hear --
Blender is struggling. it's the best piece of 3d software on the market, and it's free. I'm not going back to autodesk.
please donate if you can!

Your task, as an actor, is as follows:
- When life happens, process and archive
- When consuming media, put on that character's boots and see their POV
- ACTIVELY engage with non-acting aspects of life and SEEK elements that add to the self-awareness
- Have fun and play

Kind things I've received from indie devs:
Copies of their games, sometimes special editions & extras to give away!
Merch of their games~
Cookies, chocolates~
Bonus pay that's around or more than several times the recording session rate!
Great for morale.
Honest talk, the closest thing to royalties I receive are from indie developers who understand the success of their products & offer bonuses to the cast, sometimes for even re-using our audio in future installments. Sometimes they offer copies/gifts! Unheard of for bigger companies, for some reason.

So, I may have been keeping one last birthday surprise under wraps. 🎉
I've officially signed with AB2 Talent for voiceover representation! This is my very first talent agency, and I am beyond honored to have been given this chance.
Chainsaw's are cool.
Scan of a typed letter from 1970, from Peanuts creator Charles Schulz, addressed to "Joel Lipton, 622 N. Foothill Road, Beverly Hills, Calif. 90210" It reads: "Dear Joel: I think it is more difficult these days to define what makes a good citizen than it has ever been before. Certainly all any of us can do is follow our own conscience and retain faith in our democracy. Sometimes it is the very people who cry out the loudest in favor of getting back to what they call "American Virtues" who lack this faith in our country. I believe that our greatest strength lies always in the protection of our smallest minorities. Sincerely yours, Charles M. Schulz" At bottom is an illustration of Charlie Brown and Snoopy, a kite wrapped around the dog house.
Written 55 years ago, Schulz's heartfelt clarity cuts through the noise, even today.
