I hope that person who drew fanart of Simone from mindshift back when it was an MSPFA isn't too disappointed by the direction the story is taking. I think I still have that fanart somewhere on my PC.

April is Sexual assault awareness month. I haveve been sexually assaulted by multiple people. I have been raped. You are not broken if that has happened to you. It's not your fault. You didn't bring it on yourself. There is help. www.nsvrc.org/find-help/

even if you think AI doesn't do plagiarism on an industrial scale even if you don't care about the environmental implications or the health effects of those living near the data centers or the cognitive decline seen when outsourcing your brain AI will never understand your vision better than you.

TO DISCORD: Please engage in the appeals process and resolve false bans. youtu.be/t9NcbEb4uu0 Please spread this video around.

made some cute little buttons for mindshift's main menu. no you can't see them. 😈

Russian?

no, I must stop this scope creep madness!

part of me wonders how they'll handle THAT element in Persona 4 Revival. ATLUS has the opportunity to do the funniest thing ever.

I sometimes contemplating opening a patreon but then comes the problem with being someone who works off donations: way too many people view patreon/kofi/whatever as if you are paying for a service and not supporting a creator bc you like them.

From the late Jesse Hamm. My personal mantra for the past decade.

What you need to understand and you need to explain to others is that trans people are the 11th ACR in the Fulda Gap and they have been under assault and radioing for help for a long time. The enemy has decided this is the smallest and weakest point of attack and are going for it.

explained to my mom that I almost definitely have a dissociative disorder of some type and she legitimately could not compute how I explained the way my brain functions.

just started listening to more porter robinson songs than just "goodbye to a world" and holy shit I am. I just am. I have no words.

not me writing a sex scene that is like a 90:10 ratio of talking to fucking.

COVER TIME.

secret boss?

An April Fools PSA! If you came out as trans yesterday on TDoV, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DO NOT COME OUT TO ANYONE ELSE UNTIL APRIL 2ND. Learn from my mistakes! This message brought to you by my neighbors who thought me coming out as trans to them the after TDoV was a shitty April Fools Joke.

like I'm still gonna be using itch for my stuff as it still is one of the very few places online you can post NSFW stuff and still get some eyeballs on your work but man does the site have problems.

reminder: itchio went way above and beyond what the payment processors wanted them to do. also they stole people's money. also they were content with just never saying anything. They only reacted when they were called on it.

Vanya wants me to make a video on music. WHY? We are not musicians. SHE is.

I got banned from twitter in 2023 for this drawing. They called it "violent speech". It had over 40K likes and too many comments for me to read before my ban, but I still see it floating around here and there. Save a copy, and use it freely. No attribution needed. Love u #transdayofvisibility #tdov

writing yet another cover letter.

🏳️‍⚧️Happy Trans Day of Visibility🏳️‍⚧️

job hunting fucking sucks lol.

THAT'S HOW THEY DID THAT!

happy Trans Day of Visibility! I am a transfemme bigender woman who is currently making my first publicly released game which currently has a demo up. follow me on itch if you want to keep up with the game's progress. violetofthevoid.itch.io #TDOV #TransDayOfVisibility #trans

gonna speak frankly about this: localization, especially good localization that does the players of that respective language right is expensive and time consuming, often prohibitively so. it's one of those asks that so easily gets dismissed as an easy add that they should do, but it's not

sent the email and I am freaking the fuck out. I know the worst they could tell me is no but also *internal screaming*

If the ACA is destroyed I don't think people quite get the ramifications of that. The ACA abolished "pre-existing conditions" which included diabetics, disabled people, and basically all transgender people.

can we please kill the myth that trans kids are never given hrt or surgery? is it easy for them to get these things? FUCK NO. but just because it isn't easy for them to get access to these things doesn't then mean it isn't happening.

first draft of the cover letter written.

I wrote a blog post on how I made my first song for the GBA using OpenMPT. This is the blog post I wish I had found before I started. www.mattgreer.dev/blog/gba-dev...

writing a cover letter for this job I want and goddamn is this nerve wracking. I want everything to be PERFECT.

can we make this the new #1 most blocked account pls

there's no way they're gonna let trans people get invite codes to this one, they know that we're gonna hunt attie with hammers

i think you should support trans women on the basis that discrimination against us hurts us. when things are done to hurt us we feel it. we feel pain. we are real people. we want to be treated fairly right now, not in the future, but now, because it hurts now.

ideas are cheap

I think I lowkey wanna try drawing some concept art for the phantasm boss battles in mindshift. Listening to a remix of Persona 4's "I'll Face Myself" and it is conjuring images of some of these fights in my head. ~Isaak

Games are hard to make.

making music is fun. I just learned that rapidly shuffling between instruments in milkytracker can create a distinct effect that, yes is supported by gbstudio. :) #gameboymusic #music #milkytracker #gameboy #retromusic #8bitmusic

I love my thinkpad. it's a very sturdy laptop. it's not even on of the "good ones" it's an L450

I love linux. I just wish it could last forever on this machine.

Spanking your kids and other forms of corporal punishment are unequivocally horrible for their development. Don't do it. No, not even once, not even if they do something truly terrible. There is a myriad of reasons and studies that support this. Yet a lot of people still think it's acceptable.

problem is that I'd abuse the drug and wind up being a husk with no memories of anything.

I promise there's no politics in my game about a family of queer societal rejects grappling with how a cop manipulated them and did horrible things to them while benefiting from a corrupt state that functionally let him get away with it, while a revolution to overthrow an apartheid state happens

I wish there was a pill that let you forget. :(

don't let them have an inch when theyre trying to take miles. we don't concede on trans people in sports just like we wont concede on trans people anywhere else. period.

cover letter time.

my trip to visit my brother in The Big City is scarily soon and I am Freaking Out a little bit about it. like soon enough that I can see the gap in my work schedule where I'm leaving, soon.
