This is a R18 VN and one about sexual assault and abuse, so heads up about that. I probably won't be posting about it much more on this account since minors can follow me.
6. Cross Channel (game)
When I was doing the final parts of the true ending, I stopped updating my reaction thread. I have so much to say. I have nothing to say. There's a lot of "fluff" in this game. But when it chooses to hit, it truly does, and it wouldn't be as good w/o the space between hits.

TIL: poison sumac has a very small range in eastern North America. I've lived in some of the few places where it's possible to find poison ivy, poison oak, OR poison sumac.

i will get hate for this but: all posts on here are public anyway. it is important to verify this account so people know specifically it is real and they shouldnt fuck with it

fact that it is the most blocked account is a good sign everything is working well, banning it would make bluesky a target
Bluesky allows and verifies the government ICE account

For all of it's "API decentralization" it's still acting like one giant centralized server, which makes it politically difficult to ban the account (just like Twitter)

On Mastodon, any reasonable server would just ban the account. Done. Easy.

Coverage for Gaza has died down recently, so I wanted to remind folks that lots of people are still struggling. The Gaza Soup Kitchen opened its 14th location recently, and they are accepting donations. If you have some money to spare, please consider sending some spare funds their way.

Siren's Call: Second Wind on Steam
A wedding where one of the guests arrives dead. A strange black hole eclipsing the Florida sun. And your best friend? Gone. Is all this a butterfly dream or is reality breaking? Is their story romance...

Stickerapp, stickerninja, diecutstickers, stickerrobot, bumperactive, literally any other sticker website is better than Stickermule. Hell, printing them yourself on plain paper, cutting them out with dull scissors, and applying glue stick to the back by hand is better than Stickermule.
The latest move by Sticker Mule's owner. Please don't give these people your money (or honestly send them your artwork, you never know).

I should draw the rest of my kids sometime... (my Undertale OCs). I drew two of them a while ago and I really should settle the rest at some point

@antonyjohnston.bsky.social Hi! The closing notes said notifying you was fine, so here we are. I ended up with 115 points at the conclusion of it all. It was really interesting to see a CYOA mystery novel, especially as someone who's read quite a few mystery visual novels since discovering CYOAs.
5. Can You Solve the Murder? by Antony Johnson
This is a really awful book to get from the library tbh (as much as I love it). If I owned it myself I'd have the freedom to play around w/ it as much as I want. It's been a while since my last CYOA. It frustrated me at points, but there's still merit

Draw that one cringe thing that you don't dare drawing because you think people will judge you for it. You have the power of creation, use it to make yourself happy.
