Piggy Bombs and Twitch Streams
Dear Insane Children, In case you missed yesterday’s Live Stream over on Twitch, here’s a LINK to the recorded stream on YouTube. You’ll note that it starts about 40 minutes into the already running Twitch stream because someone (ahem, me) forgot to press RECORD at the start of the stream. Oops. Anyway, you didn’t miss…

Enter The Moon Through His Mouth
Dear Insane Children, I’m surprised that no one (not our Insane Children nor our artists) has pointed out the odd fact that our Moon is a man. But as I was going through the design notes and illustrations being created by the team this morning I realized that the wrongness of this is a good…

Humming and Hawing
Dear Insane Children, What do you do when you’ve run out of things to do? Hum a tune? Whistle a diddy? Twiddle your thumbs? I don’t know about you but I can’t remember the last time I even had a chance to practice whatever-it-is-I-do… Between being a daddy, running a company, working on a variety…

The Moon
Dear Insane Children, Get your spacesuits ready! Today we’re working on The Moon.

May Day, May Day!
Dear Insane Children, It kinda snuck up on me and Font Lord so we forgot to mention it but May 1-5 in China was a National Holiday. It’s the celebration of Labor Day… though I believe the Chinese holiday is out of sync with what’s known as “Labor Day” in other countries around the world…

BK Reminder Apology
Dear Insane Children Font Lord here with an apology. It has come to my attention that Backerkit has repeatedly been sending reminder emails out about the Enamel Pins. I actually planned ahead and asked them specifically head off this problem by deactivating the ‘reminder email’ system a few weeks ago.After all, I didn’t want to…

Up(side) [Is The New] Down
Dear Insane Children, These days it feels like we’re living in an upside-down Escher painting. A barrel of oil “costs” -$35USD, toilet paper is the new gold, and a microscopic particle has brought entire nations to a grinding halt. Can we just call for an early New Year and be done with 2020 already?! Here…
