What would life be like if you moved to a city where plants carry magic like cables carry electricity in our world? What does a queer Arab fantasy world feel like? We’re making a solo-journaling TTRPG set in that world for zine month🐸 sliding scale PDF available!

Over 1,000 Ubisoft workers around the world have walked off the job.

In response to a return-to-office mandate, layoffs, and the cancellation of several games, workers launched a three-day strike.

The workers walked out in response to five French unions issuing the strike call.
Ubisoft workers are on strike: 'We are treated like children'
The strike comes after the publisher revealed plans to cut up to 200 jobs and ordered remote workers back into the office

Sending love to any fellow composers (or anyone really!) who was able to do their craft as their full-time job for awhile but had to go back to having a day job due to the state of things. This is something I constantly have a lot of weird feelings about despite actually really liking my day job!

PS don't worry I'm still a Cubase girlie. I just figured it would be good to know how to use a DAW that doesn't cost $500 that I can then have my music composition students use

Trying out a cool new underground DAW called Reaper. Who knows, maybe it'll take off someday

For some reason it never really registered with me how big the chalices are in the RWS 2 of cups art. These people must be SMASHED

Thank you to everyone who sent me pet photos as a reward for getting my work done. Here is your reward for sending me good pet photos
February 11, 2026 at 12:09 AM
Ok I did it (and it didn’t take me nearly as long as I thought it would), show me your pets!!!!!

Keep in mind that I did this as a way to help with my lack of motivation caused by my ADHD, so it’s actually ableist if you don’t reply with a pet photo. Thank you
Hello I am committing myself to finishing a Divinuet task today and as my reward I will be requesting pet pictures. DO NOT SEND THEM YET because I have not yet earned them but now I have declared it publicly so I have to do it. I think this will cure my ADHD okay thank you goodbye

I want to be clear that this was lot a “haha sportsball” post, it was a “it’s the fourth quarter and there was finally a touchdown” post okay thank you

Hello algorithm please stop giving me ads that are like “learn how to compose music for films: a course for people who don’t know how to compose music for films” you are hurting my feelings

What does “touchdown” mean, I feel like I’ve heard the word before but it was a long time ago
