i ask myself, WWBTPFSD (what would billy the puppet from saw do)? the answer is usually "ride a tricycle"

abandoned games are often kept alive by women through fashion, art, and instagram (/ _ ; ) in a way, these games feel like my children in need of nutrients

example: the bloodborne and alice prints i just got in the mail from rusa1ka_prypiackaja 🛎️ i don’t know if i should cry or set a tea party!

the world feels like it's crumbling in the foolish hands of the disgraceful US government, and i'm crumbling with it. maybe the leather nun from nightreign can keep me from losing it completely 🍇

not with a wimple, but a bang. new blog:

on behalf of the first 🏔️ snow day in nyc — a blog about vicar amelia from bloodborne using some 14th century epic poetry conventions ^-^ 🐏 heroic couplets in iambic pentameter, alliterative verse, etc. because she's worth it ⛪⛓️

little goody two shoes from @astralshiftpro.com launched 3 years ago 🦢 but it just got a 600+ page digital artbook 🧁

consider this my plea to support "girl games" longterm! the devs that make them are some of the most committed to beauty, mythology, and ART, and i think the biz needs more of that
