Going to share on & offline, but if anyone wishes to help spread word, they can repost/upload these.

We came up with some different designs for call to action on our Kickstarter Campaign. Both Zach and Fern took time to pair their graphic design sense alongside Cal's wonderful art.

It took a lot of people and coordination to get us this far, let's hope #Arisan is able to reach more folks!

That time we jammed on Luigi's Mansion at @vgmcon.bsky.social (one of my favorite conventions btw)

@yusefkelliebrew.bsky.social on drums!

Shout out to @joeyz64.bsky.social for hosting the jam session panel!!

One more #Arisan bump for the night.

Even if you've already supported, for the physical tiers up, you or one of your characters can appear for a special celebration when our campaign's all done.

We'd love to see you there with Nyx and the others!

Hey everyone, #Arisan update!

We're celebrating 15% funding. 56 of you have gotten us over $2500!

We're honored by your belief and care. If you're so willing, please continue to share where you can with others, but we're so grateful for the journey so far!

This is amazing, but we can get them higher! How fast can we get them to 25%!? LET'S GOOOOOO!!! :D

We are the home of the civil rights movement, and you want me to believe that we can only be defined by the loud minority of racist people? Georgia has led movements. Our state led our nation time after time. Let’s continue honoring that legacy and building the Georgia we deserve.

thanks Doug

Every bsky staff member keeps talking about how the goal is Nice Social Media but then the second they're even remotely pushed back against for something shitty, and they immediately crash out for multiple days crying about their subhuman userbase.

Absolutely devastated to have to deliver this news.

I have loved working at BuzzFeed so much but I have to stand up for what I believe in.

Please DO NOT send hate to anyone!

If anything changes regarding this, I will let you know.

While the US slides deeper into the Dark Ages, the European Medicines Agency has approved a vaccine that protects against both the flu & COVID.

KOSA and several other bills got merged to form the KIDS Act, presumably because Rs know how deeply unpopular KOSA is. Tell your reps that the KIDS Act is harmful and they should vote NO on it

We've freed Cookie's Bustle from copyright hell. Here's how. | Video Game History Foundation We've stopped a persistent copyright troll who was trying to impede our work. Here's everything we learned—and how we beat them.

BREAKING: We've freed Cookie.

Following an investigation by VGHF, Ukie and Web Capio have suspended DMCA takedowns for Cookie's Bustle on behalf of Graceware, SL.

AOC: He impulsively went in on Venezuela. He impulsively went in on Iran. It led to increased global instability and every time he’s done that, it has been consistent with a spike in what is happening with the Epstein files. I think that he feels existentially tied to it.

Good morning to Megaton Girl fans.

And if you haven’t listened yet:

While we're sharing about our community, I wanna remind y'all to look at Austin's work.

You might know them for their voice work foremost, but Ausin's a passionate creator, from Megaton Girl (below) to the upcomiing Halcyon Dazed.

Here's a clip and a link to their site: www.austinleematthews.com

Bro, ICE is still here kidnapping people, now they’ve even got transit vans advertising fake companies.

Yo, if anyone who follows me wants to check out something new that's made by some incredibly skilled creators, then take a look at this!

It's an incredibly sick concept, and it'd be awesome if you could show it some support.

Beneath The Grove's cover.

happy march!! here's your almost-spring reminder @cirrostatus.bsky.social and I have an ongoing webcomic that's still fresh off the presses (and very easy for you to catch up!) for you to read.

Don't let them kill free speech, call your reps ahead of Thursday when bills including KOSA will be discussed again

We’re officially on the ballot.

Thank you to everyone who’s supported this campaign from day 1 & welcome to those just joining us. This movement belongs to every Georgian who believes our future should meet our full potential.

It’s the honor of my life to run. I’m standing tall and ready to work.

This is becoming a panic point for so many people I know. Their thermostats are set at 55. They are wearing multiple layers. Blankets at their doorstops. These are not wasteful people. $600 electric bills. Insane. Unsustainable for my neighbors

Lmfao this is so fucking sad 😂😂😂

@mayor.nyc.gov and @newyorkstateag.bsky.social, you must fulfill your promises and immediately penalize NY hospitals that have discontinued care for trans people. You must also immediately devote city and state resources to ensuring people can receive care.

BREAKING: Today Bernie Sanders is proposing new legislation to raise $4.4 trillion in taxes from America’s billionaires — a move that would virtually cut their massive fortunes in half.

A chunk of the money raised would go toward sending a $3K stimulus check to every person earning under $150K.
