So, I’m still getting bludgeoned over the head with work from other places, including one new place that pays extra nice in comparison to what I’m doing nowadays. That’ll be linked to later however, so for now, here are a few things from the local, including one incredibly out of date article. Hilariously, Recast is getting people incredibly upset which tends to be my accidental forte.
