Idk, will I? 👀

You know the niche horror genre where the characters board a deserted ship and it's immediately clear that something is *very* wrong there? I'm thinking of movies like Triangle (2009) or the game Man of Medan

(I also played House of Ashes right before writing this which is pretty apparent)

Theatrical poster for the 2009 British-Australian movie "Triangle", showing an axe-wielding woman aboard an empty ship and a masked figure reflected in a pool of blood below.

A screenshot from the 2021 game "House of Ashes", from The Dark Pictures anthology of horror games. A lit brazier sheds light on a blood-splattered wall adorned with a relief of a winged figure with a bird's head wielding a knife.

(Kraków is a Tremere stronghold in my mind, yes I'm making my own lore)

Today, Freya experienced a sudden medical crisis. I found her lying limp and barely responsive. When we got her to the vet, her pulse, BP, and blood sugar were all dangerously low. Vet said if we'd waited an hour, she might not have survived.

It is, I'm glad someone noticed!
I had an Indonesian cultural consultant on the project, the titular kingdom of Jarajakti is made up of four nations inspired by different parts of Indonesia 💖

Every time the number on the KS goes up I check if it's from the US and it usually is
I've had to cancel three pledges so far because of the tariff situation and people not reading the page
Feels bad 💀

If you're not in the US, pledge away: www.kickstarter.com/projects/161...

I've been completely out of the loop when it comes to Tollywood, I haven't seen a single Telugu movie since Pushpa 2
I may be suffering from Tollywood withdrawal symptoms

Managed to drag my sister to a protest for 🇵🇸 today
She kept wanting to stand as far away from it as possible because she thinks it's somehow controversial or dangerous to be there 💀
But hey, we contributed a bit to the crowd, which is good
