Honestly I'm pleasantly surprised. And I should have expected to be. I was curious if the Dragon Quest Builders team would deliver again and gosh they did.

Anyway even if you don't comm me please fucking call about it and make as much noise as possible. Seriously. Enlist every normie you possibly can.

THIS ALSO APPLIES to if you've donated to trans funds, especially in heavily embattled states. No set dollar amount, you just have to prove you donated.

As a note, if you can prove you've been calling/mailing/emailing your reps about online censorship bills, I'm willing to drop NSFW pieces to our regular hourly prices. Provide screenshots of emails or call logs/photos of snail mail in proposal emails and you will get your discount.

Ack that was my typo because I meant "I" . I should have double checked before hitting reply (that's what I get for being on the internet via my phone)

It's kind of funny to read this because u have an active save for that game X3

A dorky charr wearing just pants and a pair of glasses. It's carting around a bunch of papers and tubes containing papers.

Oh damn 7k thank you ;u;

I have no cool gimmicks just a doodle of the artist as a dorky charr (a charrtist, if you will)

Gosh of it ain't true XvX

When I have appointments it's like I'm never capable of accomplishing anything before it because it's like it's looming over me the entire time even with half the day to go, and after it's like my routine was so shaken by it that I still can't accomplish anything

Labour’s Section 28 is here – act now In May 1988, the Conservative government introduced Section 28. This legal measure outlawed support for “homosexuality as a pretended family relationship” across Britain, especially in …

Bonus link: young trans people are being attacked on all fronts, in education as well as healthcare. My recent post "Labour's Section 28 is here" explains more, and again provides advice on what you can do.

But what can I do – Dr Ruth Pearce Posts about But what can I do written by Ruth

There are two things you can do right now to support young trans people in England.

1) Engage in political advocacy and community support. I've got *loads* of advice on this in my blog post and zine "But what can I do? How to fight the trans panic".

The internet, on scientists: They're secretive gatekeepers, they hoard esoterica/the truth, they don't want anyone in their ivory tower little clubs

Actual scientists: LOOK, WE FOUND A 300 MILLION YEAR OLD FOSSILIZED CLOACCAL IMPRESSION AND THE VENT IS HORIZONTAL! PLZ READ MY 67-PAGE PAPER ABOUT IT

..... I miiiiiight have fallen into a cozy pokemon post-apocalypse shaped hole.

Ok well maybe not exactly easy to kill, but it can be killed on its own.

Anyway uhh yeah still call your reps but also keep up with the most accurate info and don’t let dooming eat you alive.

ASAA isn’t in the package itself, thankfully it’s still a separate (and easy to kill) bill.

We also don’t have any indication yet Johnson will be bringing it to a floor vote anytime soon, with DHS funding and the Iran war now a problem, idk if he will.

Yesterday, the KIDS Act has Passed the E&C, and soon will be pushing into the house! This is a combination of KOSA, SCREEN Act, App Store Accountability Act, and other bills into one package.

Contact your Reps, and tell them to OPPOSE these bills! Stay strong, and fight for your rights and privacy!

All these who voted "yes" you have a chance to either contact them to try to convince them that these laws don't work or also vote against them so they don't get re elected

The fight is so neck and neck that a few reps could make a difference

Oh no you're about to fall down the hole that is Pokopia too
(I say from the deepest reaches of the pit)

I'm not gonna lie.
Throw me lore that I can unlock or find in some hidden cranny and you got a recipe to hook me to your game.

Boosting the KS for a very interesting cyberpunk rpg with some very strong con and heist mechanics snuck in there among the retro future chewiness. I’m stealing a chunk of this.

Massif Press is pretty clear they're open to hacks of the system and have made all of the game's mechanics and crunchy elements open to re-use and alteration, but that doesn't make me feel any less like I'm just re-writing their rules and putting my own set dressing on top.

#TTRPG creators, when does a game stop being a "hack" of an existing system and start becoming a rip-off? I'm working on a power metal/Arthurian knights vs. fascists game that started off very OSR in vibe but is rapidly becoming a Lancer hack, and I'm struggling to shake the feel I'm just copying.

Start getting annual bloodwork panels by 30. There are a lot of issues that are much easier to address in your 30s that will become chronic when you're in your 50s or older.

My liver is back to normal after almost a decade of cryptogenic low function. Could have been a lifelong issue if I'd waited.

It seems like a common pattern with a lot of these companies trying to poach big established talent is to be like “no budget, no rules, sky’s the limit” then arbitrarily decide that they’ve overspent their blank cheque. There’s a limit, you just won’t know until you hit it.

I feel like every week I’m seeing another production that’s solidly in development with everything stacked in its favour to succeed announce “pencils down, everyone go home”

It come free with your every coyotes!
(They are chewing on your brain.. or something idk I'm not a coyote)

I think it's pretty important to understand that algorithmically-run platforms have long understood anger and argument drives much more engagement than just showing you stuff you like, and if you find yourself being made to despair at what a platform shows you, that is the system working as intended

I was just venting to a friend the other day about how 10 years ago it was like… unheard of to see this volume of projects get so far into development before the company funding it decides “project cancelled, everyone go home” how much money is being thrown away on art no one gets to see?
