i'm not gonna stop beating this drum:

if you're a leftist, idk what you're doing supporting the union busters and employee abusers at Rockstar by pre-ordering and talking about GTA 6 positively or at all gesturing that you're gonna be giving them money. there are so many indies you could be supporting and picking up instead. or, hell, find a mutual aid fundraiser or something to donate to if that $80 is really burning a hole in your pocket

not completely sure if i just want to stay solo, but you can def DM me if you wanna talk about working on a queer, leftist gaming YouTube thing. i've brought it up a few times and got some bites. mostly, i think there's a gap worth trying to fill where a small team of lefty queers who hate ai talk about and review current (and past) releases.

i've had to take a break from my channel with some computer/health issues, and a big move across the country, but i have things better in order, and i want to get back to game crit! (1/5)

how do i explain my taste in video game characters? i guess somewhere around Thane from Mass Effect 2 and Lae'zel from Baldur's Gate 3

just know you're siding with puritanical anti feminists and christian evangelicals when you say sex scenes are bad and never add anything to a story. also, stop being a nerd

might as well slip this into the world:

i'm a horror/sci-fi writer and a sound designer. i think one of my audio drama scripts that never got produced could adapt really well into a short kinetic visual novel.

would like to partner with a coder and an artist. was in talks with a couple others, but it fell through. i can do all writing and sfx, and i have a composer to do music.

i'd love for it to be in a 1-bit, black and white style. i was very inspired looking at the game Wold of Horror. because of this, i think it'd work especially well for the Playdate. it's this console pictured that has a crank on the side — which i think serves itself well to a horror story.

let me know if you have thoughts! i'd def share the script with you and be open to creative input. i'm all about collaboration and would love for us all to be a team!

hey, fuck Pete Docter (the ceo of Pixar) for making a queer director cut a storyline about growing up gay because, and quote: "We’re making a movie, not hundreds of millions of dollars of therapy." i'm sure there's great people working at Pixar still, but this is so backward. it shows that, at their core, they don't care about art. they could be making deodorant for all they care. as long as they're useful and profitable for Disney, that's all that matters now. #pixar #disney #movies

less people should be parents and that's totally okay

@cy @Fragglemuppet not always so easy when you're in a small conservative village with very little money to drive places

@Fragglemuppet i hope we can find remedies. i see the appeal to this small town life, but it's not for me. at the very least, though, i wish finding fellow queer folks was easier

moving to this small village across the country has wrecked my social life

psst, it's my birthday in a couple days. i could use help for groceries, but i'd also love to take myself to the movies, if anyone wants to help out :blobcat_party: https://ko-fi.com/wizardneedsfood

is a chilly morning over here :blobcat_comfy:

i guess i've just kind of accepted that most artists over 50 i love don't care much about trans people

as a writer, i've got novels, comics, and movies in me, but i will always come back to audio drama

why do i say full sentences to my cat

i should be vegan

i have too many food insecurities and anxieties because of money and health that keep me from going vegan. shifting my diet is a big hurdle for me, but i already love beans and rice. i could live off different forms of those probs forever lol

i've done such a good job not drinking alcohol! it's been a full year :blobcat_party:

@Fragglemuppet has the day been treating you well?

hi! :blobcat_cute:
