I've been talking about this with some people, and I really think this might happen, and I'm going to do my part as well to make it so. 2026 the year of anthologies and magazines and building communities through making things together. I'm starting early with eraserflag: ehronlime.itch.io/eraserflag

Communication is key!
While it may not feel great, telling your team you forsee being late on a deadline ASAP is HUGE for making everyone's life easier. Tasks can be juggled around, others may be able to pick up the slack.
But none of that can happen if you don't communicate.

Y'all gotta get better at communicating.
Some of y'all are approaching 30, or past it, still unable to communicate your thoughts & feelings with other people.
Even if it feels tough, it's better to communicate your inability to communicate with others than just ghosting them for days or weeks.

Hello, hello.
Earlier this year, after some medical appointments, my medicine costs hiked a lot. The job search has also not panned out yet. I've incurred a little bit of debt because of these expenses and would like to ask for some help.
