A disabled friend going to FanFest is concerned about the lack of consideration for disabilities and may end up selling their ticket. If anyone can pass along to SE or someone in fanfest, would be appreciated. would be sad if someone couldn't enjoy the event because of obstacles.

i don't understand why Steam Defender is a type of guy. like a week ago someone left a comment on a decade-old post of mine to correct me about all the value steam provides in exchange for taking a third of your revenue

bro they have a third of my revenue they don't need your help
this again but from steam defenders about Santa Ragione
to be specific, the exact energy being manifested by the itch hating crowd is "mark wahlberg re 9/11"

Alright I'm definitely gonna have to be more annoying about commissions, I'm short on rent and I don't get paid until the 4th so, y'know, any help would be greatly appreciated!
Good news: My eyes are totally healthy!

Bad news: Still had to come out of pocket more than I wanted so uh I guess I'm opening commissions now! Only taking two slots so be quick with it!

Reshares are appreciated!

I once saw an adult game get nuked because the main character's boobs were too small, causing an anonymous Valve employee to flag the game for having characters that are "too childlike"

Is that the real reason?? That's the fun of manual reviews by people with unknowable beefs with your art form 😃
"i would have simply made a work that didn't trigger the invisible hand of an anonymous valve employee with a highly specific unknowable beef"

"and if i did, i would throw away that project and start anew, confident somehow that this new project would not suffer the same fate"

Remember your favorite creator possibly might be struggling with imposter syndrome and doubt and this timeline sucks.. so if you find yourself thinking “wow I really relate to this persons work” or that persons work gives you joy, you should probably tell them. It’s a hard time to be a creative.

Dubbing will continue to stagnate until serious time and consideration is given to the pattern of severe undercutting that is prevalent in the industry. Budgets are getting slashed on workers who were already expected to cut corners with low pay. Adapters and translators are your backbone.

It would be extremely cool if a bunch of people called payment processors over Black Friday weekend to ask why they're telling people what they can and can't buy with their own money. This holiday season, give the gift of calling payment processors over Black Friday weekend
Spoke with a source who told me the call volume is so high, a call center for both Mastercard & Visa is bringing out pizza and ice cream so agents don’t quite amid the rush. Long waits are causing dropped calls.

What you’re doing is working. Call MC & Visa.

Canada made weird tv shows because it was all being done with government funded art grant money so they fell in this wacky middle ground between “shoestring budget” and “no expectation to generate shareholder value” which is really the best way to make art

Also we've stumbled across a bit more stock of a few prints, so certain things that were sold out before may be available again!

50% off still of course!

if you internalize codes of conduct that apply only to the working class you're on a dismal road. no one pirates a movie or book or game or album they love and pats their empty wallet thinking "ha ha! these suckers will never get my $20." they think "I can only support this through word of mouth."

people pirate most stuff when they're broke as shit and buy all they can when they're not, except for all the shit you can't see without piracy 'cause no one sells it. people pay when they have the cash and, increasingly, they have no cash. blame The End Of Mass Prosperity In The Imperial Core.
piracy discourse is so exhausting and passe, but i will observe that every truly great collector of physical media I know has a big harddrive of pirated books and movies. you literally cannot have one without the other

this week indie studio santa ragione announced that it's on the verge of closure after steam blocked the release of its upcoming provocative art game, horses. valve, despite all of its algorithms and purposefully vague policyspeak, is once again telling us exactly where it stands

I think we would all be happier with a return to more shows with looser budgets, longer runtime, and episodic standalone stories. Flat adaptations only work when the source is already extremely rich. Filler is the spice of life.
