The aim of this project is to ensure Filipino artists, who are historically overworked and underpaid (like, $50 a week underpaid) can get paid for their art, which makes up half of this Kickstarter's goal!

The other half is to cover printing and delivery~

Help us hit 20% before the weekend!

It has always been our ethos to stand against racism, fascism, and colonialism, and we’re not stopping now. As artists, radical imagination is our tool for carving better worlds into existence — worlds where everyone can live in prosperity and dignity.

Hope is a weapon. Let’s wield it together.

MERCY being described as a 'phantasmagoria' is everything 🥹

Thank you @jochiang.bsky.social for the listen & lovely write-up! It is always a pleasure to hear your thoughts 💕💕

⚰️ MERCY S1Ep3-5: I've been plowing through this phantasmagoria of a show and am moved by Sawyer's losses, a child torn from him long ago & a beloved taken so recently. Both tragedies feed into each other, despite the time between them. Give the man a hug. cc: @strangekindstudio.bsky.social

Our featured friend of the show is The Foxkey Chronicles by the incredible Eleana and Cole Hill!

FC is a queer western folk horror that follows the Foxkeys, a family of witches, and the enigmatic darkness that haunts the town of Murkwood, Texas.

#audiodrama #recs

The official show poster for Foxkey Chronicles with monochrome artwork of the cast of character against a black backdrop and red highlights.

A fanart digital artwork for the Foxkey Chronicles by Jae-in Hwan with the title painted in white across the top. The image shows a brunette white man in a green suit and brown vest, glasses, and white shirt, reading a weathered red book which he hold in his right hand. He embraces a small child in his left arm. The child has rosy-brown skin and black hair, wears a purple bonnet and blue dress. She is wrapped in a pink blanket as she snuggles the man's side in her sleep. The other side of the child sits a woman with similar complexion and long black hair. She is wearing a pale yellow blouse and a small gray tie/bow, and a gray/purple skirt. She has an orange shawl. The woman has a hand raised as she tries to touch fireflies that are flying around the trio. The border of the image is adorned in autumnal leaves. The artist signature in the bottom right corner.
