I have been absolutely *terrible* for reading this year. But when I finally picked up a book to read last night, I read it cover to cover. My dreams were...interesting.
If liminal horror in a taxidermy museum is your jam, I very much recommend @tkingfisher.com's "The Hollow Places"
Finally got my claws on an @effinbirds.com mug for Christmas, as well as some t-shirts that voice my inside thoughts. Very chuffed!
ADHD hyperfocus go brrrrrrrrr
The beginnings of a triangle knitted shawl in variegated purples, blues and greens, mostly garter stitch with one small section of lace mesh sits on a desk mat filled with eldritch alchemy symbols, appropriately and authentically stained.
Turns out when you manage to get rid of some of the anxiety and stress that's been sitting on you like an unwanted sack of potatoes, it feels really nice to do some crafting...
Poster for Frostpunk 2 DLC, Fractured Utopias. It shows a man in snow gear with block of ice slowly covering his image.
Frostpunk 2 DLC lands later today!
We recorded a LOT of new content for this so go forth and send the children back down the mines...
Thanks as always to @11bitstudios.bsky.social for letting me embrace the snowlands once again!

Spotify Wrapped just calling me out like this...

I knew this year had been a good year for me on Twitch but holy heck.
Not bad for an old lady with a dry sense of humour...
#Twitchrecap
Absolutely not using #Hallowstream to cover up my terrible impulse control for fabric buying...
Got bored, made a pumpkin prototype.
Be Me.
Finally get time to binge listen @worldsbeyondnumber.bsky.social
Get to Episode 14 and hear The Rain Road.
Immediately filled with a mighty need to learn the song.
Realise there's full SATB, accompaniments and lyrics on Patreon.
Patreon refuses to load them.
Cry for the second time.
We got off to a great start to #Hallowstream2025 with a wee spot of Strange Horticulture.
Take a gander at this week's schedule and see what else takes your fancy!

I am still Not Well, and thus I took a nap on a stuffed chicken for 2 hours. As you do.
I am not a well bean from over-exerting massively during the weekend's catering. So to feel better I bought myself Halloween candles and a bin.
Rock and roll life, right here.
Ah yes, baking day. When the cry of "Where in the flying fuck has my rolling pin gone???" echoes throughout these lofty halls whilst the mixer whirs in the background.
But...they're the best bit!
Going live with some more Strange Horticulture. I'm sure everything's absolutely fine in Undermere and giving out powerful artifacts to dubious people will have NO consequences.
At least there's Jupiter.

Going live with Strange Antiquities by @badvikinggames.bsky.social in just under 45 minutes! I have been looking forward to this game since its predecessor, and can't wait to get back to Undermere!

The most important bit about this is that there is a cat and you can pet them.
(I'm still gutted I missed the Hellebore plush, but at least there is always a cat)
Anyone else set an alarm for @octopus.energy's free electricity sessions?
Just Me?
Oh well.
I cannot WAIT for Strange Antiquities!!
A short woman with white hair in a white frilled shirt and black skirt stands with her back to the camera. She is standing in an abandoned yet opulent opera theatre looking toward the stage. On it, the ghostly pale blue image of a young boy playing a spectral piano sits.
I'm finishing the main story for @expedition33.bsky.social tomorrow and I am NOT ready. There is something to be said for a game I do not want to finish because I am enjoying it so much, but also NEED to know how it ends...
Me: Sees a part-time job as a social media manager for a Really Cool Company come up.
Also Me: Sees it is US locked.
GORRAMNIT D:
There are many stressful things in this world, but today there is soup and cheese on toast, and that is good.
Went to visit the cat I'm sitting for this morning, and she's still not particularly keen on me as Substitute Human, but that didn't stop her sticking her face in my shoe.
I am such an adult, I have finally bought myself a new iron and table top ironing board.
The fact that it is for my sewing projects and not my clothing is irrelevant.
Start with something simple, don't overcomplicate things. Allow your players the options to roam but don't be afraid to bring the plot to them if they wander off. Above all, remember that your plan will not survive first contact, and they will try and adopt something.
Just learn to parry XD
