the cover for the game "here, there, be monsters!". the title is in white letters and the background is black. there is also a monster made from several different parts: a canine head, bat wing, horns, tentacles, a rose growing from its torso, two human heads, a fish-like tail, twigs, and other unidentifiable features. the cover for the game "marvelous mutations and merry musicians". it emulates a concert poster glued on a wall. the wall is painted green, but the paint is chipped in places. in the top-right corner, there is some kind of green ivy growing down the wall and over the poster. in the bottom-left corner, there are pink tentacles crawling up. in the poster itself, there is the title in black letters over a pink background, as if made from cut paper. below the title, there is a person with their back to us, with a pink guitar on their back. there are pink lightning bolts surrounding this figure. the cover for the game "Apotheosis Janitors". the background is red with a texture that emulates old books. the title is in golden embossed letters. in the center there is a seated woman, looking at the viewer, with a chalice in her right hand and holding her left hand above her head. below her there are three figures: a monk, with shaved head, their hands clasped in what looks like a prayer; a hooded figure wearing black robes, their hands outstretched with the palms down as if casting a spell; and a nun, holding a book. a picture of wendi, a woman with black and red hair, wearing an oversized, sleeveless avenged sevenfold t-shirt, poses in front of a mural. she wears flip flops and holds a purse. the mural depicts, among various fish, a very ugly shark, with distorted features. the shark is bigger than the woman, and she poses as if kissing it.

Midnight of the Century is the next TTRPG from By Odin's Beard RPG, following on from Runecairn.

If you're excited about recreating the feeling of watching your favourite occult serial killer movies and TV shows from the '90s, like Millennium, Twin Peaks, and Silence of the Lambs, read on!
Midnight of the Century Primer. Hunt serial killers in a rain-soaked city teetering on the edge of apocalypse. A mid-'90s pre-apocalyptic serial killer investigation roleplaying game. Striking red and black, skull peering from the background with an eclipse at the centre and strange circular logo. Enochian text and imagery.

ohhh can i rec channels?
do you want something more strictly in the video essay genre like a jacob geller thing or can it be more like a freeform lesson/opinion (like a person talking to a camera with some inserts for example)?

You can still buy all their work. Being a rude, abrasive loudmouth while trans is the only unforgivable sin to these people.

were to be around him at any time for any reason due to his habitual sexual harassment and assaults. Frank Miller released one of the most savagely Islamophobic comics of all time, HOLY TERROR, and still works with DC. There are pedophiles, war criminals, confessed sexual predators on staff.

One thing I'll say about DC not only canceling Red Hood, but recalling the first issue and refunding stores for buying it, is that you can still get Neil Gaiman's work through them. They still work with Otto Schmidt. Eddie Berganza worked there for years AFTER the formation of a policy that no women

i just got a letter of acceptance to do a semester of my PhD in Germany. It's gonna make a huge difference for me, but I have no funding, and my currency is worth 6 times less than the Euro. So I’m doing a lil' crowdfunding. If you can help, here’s my ko-fi: ko-fi.com/wendiyu

lowkey why are people in this thread talking about libgen as if it’s some shady evil thing on the same level as openai or whatever. and not an incredibly useful resource for preservation & dissemination of knowledge?

3) it saddens me how almost no anglophone writer, no matter how intelligent, can understand how genres actually work, apart from market labels, and how limited their perspective is by the anglosphere cultural hegemony.

2.5) or possibly "magic realism" since I'm latina and don't operate within the same genre space as yall and you had to create this weird label to put us in instead of understanding us at our own terms

2) sad boners/sex are rich and complex, and pretty common, affective experiences which can be used to explore a wide variety of things in art. I'm working on something that basically uses sad sex as musicals use songs, for example. it'd also be classified as horror or weird fiction.
wendiyu.bsky.social
awoke from troubled dreams to see smart gringo writers saying dumb stuff about genres as usual so:
1) the lit/genre fiction split makes zero sense from outside the anglosphere and if you understand how genres/cultural categories work. don't take contextual relations as universal ontological facts.

my family changed how we pronounce our surname since it has a sound that doesn't exist in Brazil (the way they say it, it sounds more like a ü or a French u than "you"), even i can't say it right

and still people get it wrong all the time lmao
in writing I'm always "Wendy You" or something

i love being campy and calling them something thematically appropriate for the game. in my game about mutant musicians, they're the roadie. in my antifascist monsters game, they're the organizer (which I'm very proud of as a wordplay)

keeper and MC are fun as well
