We're now officially 1 week into my ENDLESS FANTASIA Kickstarter campaign and we're already 45% funded!

This is my first-ever attempt at crowdfunding and I'm genuinely humbled by the turnout so far. Y'all are real ones.

Let's keep it rolling and hit 50% this week!

As of this post, the ENDLESS FANTASIA Kickstarter campaign is 45% funded with 280 backers! 52 days to go!

The fact that #PokemonChampions is the next game for VGC holds some absolutely wild implications for the future of Pokemon games as a whole, and I'm still processing all that potential. Like dang, the gameplay for the mainline titles is no longer tied to a strict set of rules????

On a related note: don't track your periods on apps/online. I use a physical notebook, so the only people with access to that info is me.

Saw this post got a fair amount of attention, so I'll take the opportunity to let more people know about Startpage!

You want a search engine that gives you Google's search results without any ads or AI garbage, and doesn't track you or sell your personal data? This is it.

On the front page, there should be a button for "Install on firefox" if not, you may need to go into Settings -> Search -> Search Shortcuts and add it

I used it for years, can confirm, Startpage is the GOAT!!!
Except, there's one issue I've noticed. Recently, it's been getting rate limited and blocking me on ProtonVPN. (I used a different one before and had no issues)

If that's an issue, then I suggest ecosia.org as an alternative.

Ecosia - the search engine that plants trees

Ecosia uses 100% of its profits for the planet and produces enough renewable energy to power all searches twice over.

Sorry for spamming! Had to repost a few times, BC bsky doesn't have native gif support, and tenor might take a while to approve it, so I had to make it into a video. Yeah, there was no GIFs for this anime so I had to make my own!

Wouldn't be a posting "challenge" if there wasn't a problem to solve!
