  • The Death Storm

    Dear Insane Children,  I won’t lie. I like a good typhoon. Certainly not while out sailing or riding my scooter. But viewed safely from indoors with Lulu and Yan by my side (actually, Yan’s at work right now; thank god for Lulu)… they can be a bit of fun.  Shanghai is now in the middle…


  • Be Still, My Bleeding Heart

    Dear Insane Children,  Are we heading towards 3000 Patrons at the end of August? Insane!  Myself, Martin, Lulu, and the rest of the Asylum team cannot say THANK YOU enough for all the support, trust, and love you’re sending our way! I did a public post earlier today where I shared a snippet of the…


  • FAQ Announcement – August 16th

    Dear Insane Children, A quick public post containing info about The Chaos Coin and the livestream for this week. First, a Giant Welcome to all our new inmates! As I write this, we’re at 2152 (and still growing). Wow!  If you are not yet an Inmate and want a Chaos Coin, then join now! There’s…


  • 2000! You Did It!

    Dear Insane Children, WOOOOOAAHHHH! AMAZING! Congrats on unlocking the Chaos Coin Goal! A few things to keep in mind as we head towards the end of the month with 2000+ Patrons… 1) We’ll send out as many coins as needed and there’s no cap at 2000. If you pledge above 2000 then you will still…


  • One Night in Bangkok

    Dear Insane Children,  Actually, we’ve been here more than one night but tonight is THE NIGHT. Yan and I are heading to see Nine Inch Nails at MoonStar Studio. It’s been over 20 years since I last saw Trent in person – back when we were doing sound/music for Quake. Lots has happened in the…

  • Wonderful

    Sometimes you get a batch of art that makes you feel wonderful*. Images from a team of artists around the world which come together in a magical mix of what has been and what can be. Reminding me of all the times in the past, when I’ve seen art and concepts *click* in that distinctly…


  • The (Anti-PC) Pun Cannon

    Dear Insane Children,  This post was meant to start with 3-pages of me talking about political correctness and the importance of living life With Teeth but cooler heads prevailed. I was reminded of the precarious nature of our situation – all the eyes on us and what I’m saying. And the fact that I deleted…


  • Weapons of Mass PO!

    Dear Insane Children, Inmate Alyssa asked in the comment section of the previous post about weapons – and I told her she was going to LOVE the next post. And, hey, that’s THIS post! So… get ready because… incoming!!! Joey’s been working on a series of weapon designs per our “toys as weapons” design direction.…


  • Tis But a Scratch

    Dear Insane Children,  I seek the finest and the bravest knights in the land to join me in my Court of Camelot! You have proved yourself worthy… but none (or at least not all) shall pass. It’s the same story every month. We add, on average, around 400 new Patrons per month but then lose…
