#artshop #vgencommission

A colourful cast of characters in an anime style, all sporting new outfits designed by OP via Vgen commissions. Characters range from elves, to tieflings, to humans, to dragons, and to a stardragon (furry lite)

Character body types vary in weight, height, and muscle size.

A man in sunglasses enthusiastically points to a sign with a huge grin and a phone up to his ear. The sign has been edited to look like my Vgen shop services list.

Like Pepe the Frog, “waffles” has quickly gone from being a quirky internet meme about online discourse, to a transphobe dogwhistle signifier - one not only pushed forward by one of the biggest bigots on Bluesky right now, but PARROTED by the very CEO of this site.

I fear it doesn’t get any better.

There are these WAFFLES places in Berlin that, in a nice touch, will write your name in chocolate sauce. This was a good effort! Lebanese (I think) staff working in Germany trying to understand an American guy's name. I love this world.

Rest in Peace, Minnesota State Rep. Melissa Hortman.
She was targeted and assassinated on June 14, 2025 between 2 am and 3:35 am CDT in Brooklyn Park, Minnesota. Vance Boelter was targeting 70+ Democrats at the time of the incident.

Melissa Hortman was assassinated by a Trump loving right wing extremist who killed her husband and her dog as well in the attack. This was targeted and pre-meditated political terrorism of which the assassin, Republican Vance Boelter, was trying to get about 70 more people at the time of his rampage. 2 others were injured.

Can we please understand what is happening? He is disarming us as a prelude to our extermination. And making us mentally unfit to own firearms as a matter of law will exclude us from all manner of legal rights.

Like the obvious solution is "just do d&d or pathfinder rules" or whatever else but it doesn't really fit with my head-vision?

I'm just hoping someday I look back and realize how much I overthought this stuff lmao

There's a chat-based RPG thing I've been slowly figuring out in my head (and on maps/notes) since..2001 on IRC that I'm hoping I can *finally* start this or next year on Discord. It's also where Ketsen originated!

Slowly gauging interest, but eternally stuck deciding on systems for it.
