The official "Drift" tumblr page!

This is the official tumblr page for Tobias Spark's (me!!!) audio drama, Drift. Welcome! Five young adults with absolutely no training get sent to space for a two week mission, proving the safety and ease-of-use of a new shuttle for a big malicious tech-bro corporation. It's set in 2061, where space travel is becoming more widespread and easily accessible; thus, of course, capitalism is working its way through every fiber of the industry. What will happen, though, when they realize they might not have enough fuel to make it back? PREPARE FOR LOVE. LOSS. HATE. BETRAYAL. CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT. A ROACH NAMED SLUNK. DEATH. AND SO MUCH MORE!

Expect updates, casting calls, and the occasional shitpost. <3

hello everyone! i'm a queer black woman living in the west coast, and i have been struggling with my housing for quite a bit of time. where i live, the heat can get especially intense, and with me and my family mostly living out of our car, trying to sleep during these hot nights proves to be a huge problem when the heat can reach the 100's. we're lucky to get any sleep at all sometimes what i'm asking for is a bit of cash so that me and my family can sometimes afford to spend the night in air-conditioned hotels, even if it's just for the coming days hotels in my town tend to cost anywhere between $150-$200 per night, and any extra funds can go towards us affording food, clothes, and other necessities i'm only asking people who can help out, i know a lot of people are struggling, but if you see this post, please spread it around. surviving the summer in my position is nothing short of absolute hell and if you can help me make a difference, i'd appreciate it. thanks for reading

TL;DR: it's approaching the summertime (it may as well be summer at this point) and getting sleep when you don't have a home is hard enough. i'd love some help so i can afford to sleep indoors instead of my hot car

do people still like audio dramas?

like obviously im sure a number of people still listen to audio dramas. but like. i feel like i remember 2020-22 being peak popularity for a lot of shows, and as someone who's been mostly off tumblr and tiktok for a couple years, i'm just wondering what people think that vibe is these days when it comes to audio dramas? i'd love to make my own, but im wondering if there's still much of an audience for that these days

[lawofnamesmedia]

The answer to “should I add my creative work to the world” is almost invariably “yes, please.”

Just saying.

[clinical-space-podcast]

Make it.

Make it for you.

Make it for the art that inspired it.

Make it if it gets 3 fans or 30,000.

Make it if you do 1 season or 7.

Make it if you fall in love with making it and end up forming a production company about it or if it's just a brief passing hobby.

If it's within you and wants to get out, make it. You won't regret the time spent.

Also, related, @podcast-bookclub is starting their annual podjam event soon. It's a perfect opportunity for beginners looking for collaboration to get something out into the world.

👏 Make 👏 That 👏 Podcast! 👏

“Make it for you” is so important. Even if the audio drama space is no longer a crowded as it was back in the early 2020s, that doesn’t make your project any less worthwhile.

If scouting a fanbase or a huge audience is your current drive, try to see past it to the joy of Making A Thing, especially in a world like audio drama, where Making A Thing is so very possible!

[thedriftvoyager]

Make it, dude!

My friends above got it spot-on. And, past that, remember: no matter how niche, there WILL always be at least a couple people.

your lab coat is probably some boring color like white. zero swag. youre nothing

[thedriftvoyager]

Not true it has red splotches and splashes on it.

i <3 when women characters feel they aren't able to express sadness in "normal" ways because they don't feel safe enough to cry in their environment so instead they opt for the more acceptable strong emotion of rage and they get recklessly angry at the people around them in fits of misplaced sadness and terror and make irreversible decisions and hurt others. i dont care as much when this happens to a man

wears a big t-shirt that says I ♥️ WHEN CHARACTERS ARE NASTY AND FLAWED AND ANNOYING AND HURT EACH OTHER AND THEMSELVES

[butch-yaoi]

three cheers for female characters that lack empathy
