so annoying when people give up or ragequit after setbacks in team games. Grow up and cultivate a shred of resilience

Had to dig up a hard copy for this one.

adra's mother still doesn't know that they're married and has not met criticality LMAO & ofc adra's brother aurelius is furious and wishes crit a very Die

astonishing. 'i don't like it' is pretty much the only reason you need to stop doing anything like this (tho in fact idt any of this should exist at all regardless). there is simply no good argument for collecting any of this data on anyone

"The terrible person's work was terrible anyways." No. People who are terrible can still make pretty things. That's the problem. People who equate "good things = good people" is the reason why so many are exploited, tricked, fooled, harmed, etc. As if all goodness is perceivable in any industry.

lrp 'don't worry about it' is gonna be the answer most of the time when people ask very granular questions about how the world of machine sympathy works (& as an aside it is very frustrating when the presumption is that things work just like they do in this or that other sci-fi property)

The most powerful lore explanation you can ever produce is "don't worry about it"

It's finally time for a Bloodborne Randomizer! www.twitch.tv/causeimdanjo...

still thinking about how this is probably my favorite art from the ff14 vinyl sets.

I've been ill all this month for various things and caught other things after caring for my parents. This month has been taxing for a lot of people, but if anyone can help a fellow queer out, I would be so very thankful. ko-fi.com/ruwyn_a/goal...

I have new bookmarks for your summer reads 📗✨ #booksky hellocloudyart.etsy.com

today i DM'd for the first time in like four years. my last DM experience went really sour & then ofc i got terribly debilitatingly sick, so between the psychological and physical blocks it just wasn't happening. but i was determined that this year would be the year i tried to get back into it

no peeking!!

my wife got this custom dice tower for me ages ago (bc in years past I did actually DM all the time) & i am excited to use it again with these dice (which were a christmas present)

Getting set up ...

beach cat

tonight!! the balmung gates are still open, so mosey on over 🦐

guess who has two thumbs is an idiot and fell on their fucking ankle this morning (this guy) im sad bc i really wanted to check out the hello kitty cafe 😩

some part of me will always believe everyone secretly hates me and is just waiting for the right moment to reveal it unfortunately. i wish i was not this way but considering it did literally happen i'm afraid the insecurity is inescapable. but!!

i feel like i used to have a lot of friends in the xiv rp space and now i have relatively few ... but i feel more secure in those few. i feel they're not constantly taking me in bad faith or repeating private convos or otherwise secretly holding me in contempt.

Do. Not. Use. Fucking. Sticker. Mule.

On behalf of all people who run crowdfund campaigns and artist stores, let me be the one to say it today: International shipping really is that expensive. It really costs that much. I know it's expensive. That's really what it costs. I'm sorry. I don't set the prices. But it really does cost that m

it's gonna jump up to 98F (36C) next week 😭 i just got our HVAC maintenanced so hopefully we will not melt

i like this track for meridian bc it blends a sense of industrial aggression with some ethereal vocalization, which for me creates an unsettling and otherworldly vibe ... as one might feel if meridian were ever to attack unrestrained www.youtube.com/watch?v=5UJN...

i got a pretty nasty vet bill today, and we'll probably have to go back for follow up appointments (juniper is Old) would anyone like a commission 😭 email: [email protected] more samples: jadezhang.art/comms

this post will not have much meaning to most of my TL but an anon hate community that tormented many people (including me) in my old RP space (dreamwidth) was effectively shut down today and i'm pleased as punch

happy 27th nameday to my little siren 🤍 #sunforged

the problem with loving my hobonichi so much is that now i'm really gonna want one for next year and they sell out SO fast 😭

I've made two of my older fanzines available on Itch, free to download!!! 🖤 If you never got a chance to check them out before, or simply want to add them to your library, they are now there to enjoy! 📖 machinelotus.itch.io

finished watching tadc and it was funny and sweet, but its (good!) messages are so transparently and plainly and literally directly stated that i can't believe the fandom has such turmoil in it shdgh. how frightening

Bean in a bag

it's a physical sensation when you've observed that something has happened but you know you can't really ask about it bc it's not strictly your business ... but the curiosity ...
