Programming for this was a treat! The whole team was awesome to work with and put their best foot forward.

I’m proud to say that I finally worked on a visual novel from start to finish.
Our VN for @novembearjam.bsky.social is out! Put a lot of effort and stressful hours into this project and would really appreciate it if y'all gave it a look!

Finishing my first VN was an amazing experience. This won't be the last VN you'll see from me!

Genuinely, as someone who plays several live service games I always have a checklist that's like
- Ask yourself if you're having fun
- Never have a "forever game", play or read or do other stuff alongside it
- Don't set paid subs to auto-renew
- Think about what you want, not what the game wants

This sounds reasonable but is 100% wrong. Whether you or agree or disagree with a study is completely immaterial. What matters is whether the study was conducted properly and generates valid results. And it's impolitic to say but it's true: you have to have some level of expertise to judge that.

I do not wish to end,
But I do wish a pause.
A chance to mend,
And apply some gauze.

To take a break!
And just breathe.
To just shake
All the rotten leaves.

To free the tree of decay
So it may bloom another day.
All it needs is a little more time
To give it all some reason and rhyme.

People who send messages assigning a shit ton of work and follow it up with "lol" deserve to be executed.

I’m gonna say it: I adore how @deadstraybear.bsky.social draws gnolls! Life goal is to get a gnoll Dirk and they’d be first on my artist list.
Its a good thing I reposted this guy last night as a refresher cuz theres nothing fresh about him. I believe on my FA or Patreon I explained that this guy is PURE himbo and actually thinks Pee is stored in the balls so he does this to mock folks.

I thought people were overreacting to the rude label but mine was set to hide and not warn and I didn't even know it. Go check your moderation settings and make sure that they're what you want.
If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

Hey folks, I know I haven’t been that active with posting art on here. I think it’s been about a year since I’ve posted art anywhere in general. I hope to change that soon! I’ve gotten a few pieces since then.
