Every smartphone in the world contains a CPU descended from one designed by a trans woman in the 1980s. The Matrix is one of the most influential movie franchises of all time. Electronic music was pioneered and popularized by a trans woman. I could go on

i think my favourite part about being a trans woman is how much of an impact we have on culture. a friend reminded me today about a popular meme format she created. another friend today casually told me about how she was the most notorious roblox hacker when she was a child.

I feel like I'm the only one excited for Tormented Souls 2 later this month, but god damn I loved the first one and the demo was the second was extremely good, so you'll have to pardon me if I'm all brimming with anticipation for this one.

Only $300 between hunger, shelter, and my kids lives. Don't let us collapse while we call on you. Don't let our voices die. We are now in your hearts. Don't let us down and leave us lost between hunger and oppression. You are love for us.

I legit think all the time about how a polypropylene cone shaking really fast somehow can reproduce the sound of like a bunch of people talking and an orchestra playing all at the same time from 1 source like that's so fucking cool dude what the fuck that sounds impossible and made up but it's real.

Instead of being forced to talk about Big Tech's fake inventions we should celebrate the truly life changing feats of genius that we don't think about. The incredible "head phones." The humble toilet

A Great and Terrible Wrath, Page 7

Grandmother heads into the dining room with two plates of food.

"But you Father would rather play his little games with his boys, than just man up and ask for what he's rightfully earned."

Patience takes the covered plate and heads towards the stairs.

Perhaps, if I am swift and silent.

As Patience reaches the foot of the stairs her Grandmother approaches.

"And just where are you going young lady?"

"To bring Mother her breakfast."

"You'll not be wiling away the whole morning with your Mum. Besides, no doubt she's still sleeping."

Patience mopes into the dining room.

"Fine."

"Go eat at the table. Then Get on with your chores. I'll see that your Mother is fed when she arises.

A Great and Terrible Wrath, Page 6

Patience enters the kitchen where her grandmother cooks by the fire.

"Where has Father gone?"

"He and his little gang of miscreants took of first thing this morning. Wouldn't tell me where they were going. I swear they're up to no good. No son of mine should be socializing with that lot still. When he was a young man, well, boys will be boys. But really, at his age? I keep telling him to go speak to the Captain."

Patience's Grandmother distributes food onto three plates and places a cover over one.

"After all my boy has done for him, the Captain won't have forgotten. A straight shooter through and through. Always was."

A Great and Terrible Wrath, Page 5

Patience stands at the top of the stairs as her grandmother steps through the doorway, into the kitchen.

"Wipe your feet Patience"

A small swell of anger rises within, but reflexively, I choke it down.

"I don't want you tracking dirt onto my clean floors. And cover that mirror. Damn thing's a hazard."

Patience hangs a red sheet over the silver mirror by the window at the top of the stairs before hesitantly turning back to face the dark cellar.

I dare not articulate this sensation. I let it slip past. Wait for the feeling to collapse and pass on without taking form. I will not give it a name. For fear that my words may breath some life into the cold ether.

Once the base layer dried, I started stippling increasingly bright shades of green with big, soft makeup brushes.

I keep twisting and turning the brush to get random shapes. I'm focusing the light towards the middle of each panel.

I'll start refining after a couple more layers.

Rear of the Sanctum with no e green highlights on the rooftop.

I'm focusing the green towards the middle of each panel with the top and bottom portions in shadow.

I’m really happy people are enjoying the video. As you might’ve been able to tell…it was very personal. Truth be told it’s only half the story, I’m still dealing with the mental scars left behind by the experiences I describe, the self hatred, the fear of rejection.

In Ireland we grow up learning about how in the Dark Ages pilgrims would travel here from all over Europe to read books that had been saved here while they were lost elsewhere & I think we need to get our politicians to think like this about things like Basic Income. A light for the darkening world.

Anyway, as usual might I suggest following my curator page for more recommendations? I'm always adding new games, and some time ago I made it my policy not to include games with predatory monetization practices, so you're safe from lootboxes. 👍
