Happy Pride month!
I'm still pretty new on Bluesky, so for those who don't know:
Hi! 👋 I'm your friendly neighborhood genderqueer (quite literally genderFAE 😂), bisexual changeling! 😊✨🏳️‍🌈
I mostly use she/her pronouns, cuz my gender is too all over the place to figure out other pronouns 😵‍💫
#lgbtq #🏳️‍🌈

Currently dealing with a bit of an existential crisis and anxiety/depression (this has been an on again, off again thing since I was 11).
This animation was weirdly soothing and poignant, and the timing was uncanny lol

Just got told by one of my closest friends that I am an enigma; she doesn't know how I'm going to respond 60% of the time.

In highschool, I desperately wanted to be the ✨mysterious new kid✨
Teen me would be delighted to know that I've finally reached ✨mysterious✨ status, simply by being a weirdo 😂

It's wild to me that I was thinking to myself back in 2019 "Man, if only Lackadaisy was an animated show, THAT series is something special. Oh well, it's still fantastic just as a webcomic 🤷"
Not knowing that's EXACTLY what was in the works AT THAT EXACT MOMENT.
I'm so happy for you, Tracy 😄

*looks at animation*
*looks over at Knights of Guinevere*

*looks at comics*
*looks at Lackadaisy and tons of other comics, webtoons etc*

Indie Creators in entertainment in general, really.

"gaming is dead"

My dude gaming has never been more alive. Ya just gotta stop hoping that big studios are gonna stop shitting on their own dicks out of greed, and go look at smaller dev teams and indie devs

Welp, I've been called out 😶
...On 60-70% of my life choices 😓

I'm dealing with a sudden onset, intense head cold, and this silly little ad just cheered me up so much 😂

Ind!go @faestoryteller.bsky.social · 10d

I slightly understand the monopoly concerns, but Glitch and everyone involved with them seems VERY adamant about protecting artists, and giving them space to flourish and tell the stories they want to tell *without* any corporate censorship.
This development is a GOOD thing!

Ind!go @faestoryteller.bsky.social · 11d

Hell yeah! Maybe he would be able to make some of the drinks in the show! 😄

(8) It truly *does* just sound like a misunderstanding that got blown way out of proportion, some people weren't happy with the results not fitting THEIR narrative, and the Lackadaisy team was just trying to prevent further dog-piling from people who weren't listening. I think we're all good 👍

Ind!go @faestoryteller.bsky.social · 11d

(7) I can see where the misunderstanding took place, I can see exactly why people were concerned, but it looks like they did everything they could to clear the air. I trust a trans person's judgement on trans issues, especially with someone they know personally 🤷

Ind!go @faestoryteller.bsky.social · 11d

(6) After even more searching, it sounds like the stuff with the "problematic" person was all a genuine misunderstanding, Fable themself looked into it and worked really hard to make sure that their community/team was safe, and they and multiple others VERY confidently trust this person

Ind!go @faestoryteller.bsky.social · 11d

Oh yes, how will they ever survive without their 2nd yacht?? 😂

Ind!go @faestoryteller.bsky.social · 11d

A few different series I've enjoyed over the years have done that. Most recently, Good Omens is (or was 😭) known for that.
Honestly, it makes a lot more sense to me for smaller, indie series to follow that format.
Big corporate-backed series though?? Idk man, seems cheap on their part 😮‍💨

Ind!go @faestoryteller.bsky.social · 11d

Yes, yes it is lol
I barely even touched Twitter, and even *I* know that

Ind!go @faestoryteller.bsky.social · 11d

(5) Especially since, in all my years of being a Lackadaisy fan, this is the ONLY controversy I've heard about the team, and they generally have a good track record. Plus I'm genderqueer myself. I truly don't feel that this is the huge issue it's being made out to be

Ind!go @faestoryteller.bsky.social · 11d

(4) Sometimes you get stuck working with less-than-ideal people, and have to be VERY careful about how you handle certain situations. Doesn't mean you automatically condone or agree with things they've done.
I think people should cut them some slack.

Ind!go @faestoryteller.bsky.social · 11d

(3) Tracy herself has always been very careful and considerate and respectful about how she handles portraying different groups and cultures. It's HIGHLY unlikely that the crew itself is transphobic.
I used to be in the cancel culture crowd, and this just seems like more Antis being toxic

Ind!go @faestoryteller.bsky.social · 11d

(2) I don't want to overstep or accidentally spread misinformation on either side of the argument, so all I'll say is that there are trans/genderqueer people on the Lackadaisy team, they've posted about condemning anti-trans bills and whatnot-

Ind!go @faestoryteller.bsky.social · 11d

(1) I'm no expert on the matter, but from what I've been able to find, this whole situation looks and sounds like just a bunch of Antis trying to stir up drama now that Lackadaisy is getting more popular

Welp, time to listen to this song until I make myself sick of it! 🥰

(My GOD, it's so GOOD! So many parts of this song gave me the music appreciation "stank" face lol
It's just so JAZZY! ✨)

This scene is GORGEOUS! The colors and effects all make my brain glimmer! ✨😄
Also, congrats on teaming up with Glitch, that's HUGE! 🥳

Ind!go @faestoryteller.bsky.social · 13d

I commented on the YouTube post already, but I am SO excited! This is huge news!! I'm so happy for you guys!

"Why are you like this??"

Well you see, my grandma sat me down to watch Ferngully when I was 3, and I haven't been the same since.
