fiction is a safe space to think of unsafe things

if you feel it's messing you up, step away. don't assume it's messing everyone up and you need to eradicate it because you caught a case of the feel-bads from something. go sit with that and think about why instead of pissing in everyone else's cheerios.

"The story of America in the twenty-first century is the story of chosen scarcities. Recognizing that these scarcities are chosen—that we could choose otherwise—is thrilling. Confronting the reasons we choose otherwise is maddening." As quoted in

The Abundance Doctrine

How modern liberalism became too obsessed with saying no—and can learn to say yes again.

October 10th is Kill Bill's anniversary!🔪

So happy to have given Gogo Yubari better justice! I first cosplayed her in 2010 and it was a hot mess compared to these photos my partner Raph took & I edited last month.

So CARIMARA, from dev @bastinusrex.bsky.social, is a beautifully dark little Halloween treat of a game. It's short, cheap ($7 CAD), spooky and richly detailed.

Play it yourself first before you watch my or any other video or stream! It's worth it!

(I loved it!)

I’ve learnt that only hyperfocus can keep me from disappointing others. Sometimes.

Two-page comic about ADHD, self-doubt, and burnout.

Panels 1+2
A person with short black hair and yellow antennae recalls lifelong struggles with effort and recognition. As a child, they cry while being scolded over homework. Later, they work hard but still fail small details and receive an “F.” When they finally succeed, they can’t enjoy it—holding a medal labeled “2,” they feel it’s luck, not skill.

Panel 3+4
Page 2:
They explain how productivity fluctuates. A blue graph shows steady effort, while a pink line spikes wildly. They say, “For me, it fluctuates more extremely.” Sitting exhausted at a messy desk, they admit, “I only stop when I’m too tired to go on. The word I learned for all this was ‘lazy.’ I never learned a healthy measure or how to trust myself.”

It's okay to take a break even if you don't think you deserve one.
It's okay if you don't cross off every item on your to-do list.
It's okay to not be productive every second of every day.
You are a human, not a machine.
It's okay. You're okay.

Being an elder in your hobby community is fucking awesome. You get to be that random oldhead who helped *you* really get into the hobby when you were a kid for a whole new generation, and it's the best feeling ever.

Photo of me cosplaying "Human Disguise" Morrigan Aensland from the Night Warriors: Darkstalkers' Revenge / Vampire Hunter: The Animated Series / Darkstalkers OVA from 2021. Capcom's favorite succubus.

PoV from above as I'm sitting on the ground amongst a Halloween themed set; gravestones, candles, a skull, and fall leaves. Two bat companions on my shoulder with a third trying to hold my shirt closed. I'm making eye contact with the viewer with my hand open, perhaps offering something to the viewer.

Finally back to a sort-of-regular stream schedule AND it's SCARY-times.

Kicking things off with something that is probably our speed: Sorry We're Closed—which I've heard some great things about.

And if we have time / bandwidth this week ... maybe bonus stream?

A chibi drawing of nt3rp, styled as a zombie, is in the bottom left corner while the stream schedule for the week is presented almost like a text-messaging conversation.

For the week of October 6 to 12, the schedule is as follows.
- Tuesday, October 7 @ 7p EDT: Sorry We're Closed
