🧵Canadian friends: if you want to vote for the next leader of the NDP, you have *just one week left* to buy a (cheap) party membership. After that, there will be a big English debate and lots of media coverage, but it will be too late to have a say. Only members can vote for leader. link below:

Really enjoyed playing The Roottrees are Dead this weekend! Flew through the main game, got surprised by the DLC game, and am now struggling 😂 There is more distraction content in the DLC game which adds nice flavour but I'm finding it decently more difficult 🧐

Welp, I hadn't planned on getting hooked on Hollow Knight because it didn't jive with me previously but I played for 6 hours 😬 But now back to the office 😭

Spending my last day of winter break speed running the games we bought in the Steam Winter sale. First up is Baba is You.

Spending holiday break learning a new painting style that I was terrified of. Hair done, all the rest to go and this is just the first shading pass 😱

If you have already finished your annual Lord of the Rings holiday viewing, may I recommend Haunted Hotel. Linking it to Rick and Morty is a huge disservice (couldn't find a basic image without that line) as it's a genuinely funny and mature show without being edgy or gross.

Thank you all so much for your support this year! 🌺 A reference pack with all 165 freebies from 2025 is available now. You can get it here: ko-fi.com/s/c09a29cf04

I know the Switch was given a hard time for joycon drift but in seven years I only replaced my joycons once. I'm now about to buy my 4th PS5 controller in 4 years cause they all have the exact same drift 😤😤😤

I have officially launched TrueRef's new timed gesture tool (Flow) & free pose library (Pose)! Both are linked on trueref.io. While limited right now, both will contain our full free library by the 1st. 🤍 Flow: community.trueref.io/trueref_gest... Pose: community.trueref.io/free_referen...

have you shipped a game with dialogue where, during dev, you also had a big wiki/notion/document/google doc/something full of lore and information about your characters/settings/tone/style/reference for writing/game design, etc? Can I see it? DM me.

Been really enjoying spending holiday time making a new D&D character who loves their big bird headed scythe.

It's here, my most anticipated blog post of the year (to me). Book wrap up! I read 50 books this year 😱 The post shares my top 3, a big section on books with dragons, and then my point score for all the books. Pls recommended dragon books to me 🙏 #BookSky www.kymira.ca/blog/books-2...

The capsule art for Ball x Pit implies that the characters shoot the balls from their mouths. Does the 'x' in the title hide an 's' to make it Ball Spit? 🤔
