I just contacted my representatives and also donated a little money to help the wolf conservation center continue their work. Please consider taking time to make your voice heard. Wolves need our protection. 🐺💗
🚨URGENT: Congress prepares to push forward wolf slaughter bill that would remove federal protections for gray wolves across the lower 48 states and prohibit judicial review. Decision will be voted on Dec. 15 and could move to a House vote next week.

It's been a while since we've provided an update on this project. We put it down after the third sizing alteration (back in May) picked it up in October, and have done two more iterations since. So here's the final form of the main body - straps/blocking remain.

This is fucking pathetic on Steam’s part. There’s no way in hell “has muslims” should be approved as criticism, and the DEI whining is the same hateful sentiment with a flimsy cover draped on.
I can only assume Valve *agrees* with the bigotry if it’s gonna keep claiming such nerdzi shit is valid.

We had an Overwhelmingly Positive score on Steam, then these two reviews rolled in
Why does Valve allow this?

valve doesn't allow artistic nudity in a genre historically full of it, but it does allow you to use their review system as a soapbox to tell everyone how much you hate muslims and transgender people 👍🏼 its about ethics guys. In games journalism.
Since I posted this yesterday:
- The writer of the "I hate muslims" review has doubled down, and added that they also hate transgender people
- Valve removed my flag from the review, with nothing done about it. The review remains up and on our Steam page
I say again: Is this what Steam is now?

I'm hoping for more articles on this situation, because we cannot stay quiet: www.gamesradar.com/games/simula...
Publisher says Valve rejected complaint about hateful Steam review: "'Has Muslims, not recommended' is literal racism, so there should be no conversation needed"
"I just don't know what to do about this"

Your hyperfixations are something to be celebrated. leaned in to. embraced. It's your greatest strength. find what they are and get MORE fixated on them. Then double that. triple that. You find your people this way. Never hide from your passions, never worry about being annoying. You are a treasure

I think if we were taught to give ourselves understanding and compassion rather than doubt and mistrust we'd have much healthier people.
I often feel like advocating for myself and my needs in any way is narcissistic.
This has led me to ignore my own needs too long and now I'm trying to save Me.

One of my fundamental beliefs is that I should not have to talk to people who have been cruel to me. You might be surprised to learn how often -- and vociferously -- people disagree with me about that.

Draw your kinks y’all.
Your dirty, nasty kinks that so called normal society will look down on you for.
Because it doesn’t matter. Because drawing any porn is distasteful to them. You could draw the most basic missionary crap and they’ll still want to hang you.
Be free. Be a lil weird. Be loved.

People with power are really out here these days saying things like ‘people who worry about climate change are nostalgically living in the past’ and ‘it would be a waste if resources to prevent pandemics’ and the public is dead silent

this is the level of funding where all the possibilities for American politics that have been described as hyperbolic over the past decades - the comparisons to Nazi Germany and other nightmares of the 20th century - become logistically possible and politically likely

Once more for those in the back: bush v gore, decided 25 years ago next week (12/12), was the 21st century’s original sin.
Everything that has gone wrong for the US, and by extension the world, stems from that corrupt and shameless decision. #scotus

Agree with this thread. Worth reading in full.
25 years ago John Roberts, Brett Kavanaugh, and AC Barrett all worked on GWBush's 2000 Florida recount team. What they're doing now is, if anything, more nakedly partisan.
Fire-breathing dissent by Kagan, with Sotomayor and Jackson.

They're not even trying to appear nonpartisan anymore.

It drives me nuts when people label my work as the "respectable" kind of queer art just because it's basically PG-13.
Bitch don't pull that nonsense, we stand up for porn in this house. Always defend the weird, ugly, uncomfortable, and cringe, because if we don't push boundaries we don't exist.

The fascists are counting on you finding erotica and porn too distasteful to support. Because they always start here. And even if they ended here, sexuality and erotism are integral components of queer expression. You can't support queer creators without supporting 'nsfw' content.

Even queers who are "just little guys" living the most inoffensive possible life with their stuffies and their cozy games and their soft colors will just end up accused of "sexualizing children" the same way that babyfurs are accused. If you are queer you are offensive
