man, dying light the beast is £58 over here..... and it's not even a full-scale huge new game... Think i'll wait till it goes on sale and maybe get the £10 days gone remaster .... Games are so expensive on ps5 in the uk, like £10 more than the US or Austrialia through direct conversion... crazy

Forgot to mention on here, but after just one stream alone, we've raised more than 30% towards the goal already! Thank you to everyone who's donated or watched the stream (as all ad revenue from the streams and super chat donations will be going towards the campaign, too!)

Streaming live rn!! youtube.com/live/6YAVvQ3...

he's such a goof

Over the next months (or, however long it takes) i'm looking to raise £1000 towards the Red Cross' Gaza Crisis Appeal. I want to get them across the £3000 goal mark. Over 60,000 Palestinians have been killed since October 7, 2023. More are severely injured. Too many displaced. tilt.fyi/P3FsHn49Wb

My surgery recovery is going OK, all things considered, but I had to buy a bunch of stuff (and still need to buy more) and it's quite expensive 😭 😭so I'm opening sketch commissions to try and recoup some costs! Please share this around 😭🙏 Examples below! forms.gle/pzkwQ2VTSVnT...

might do a star wars unlimited opening and little goody two shoes stream this week 🙏

I'm opening up my youtube thumbnail commissions again via ko-fi! (link in post below)

For those who don't have twitter, the new AI filter/restricted mode on youtube has hidden all of my videos that discuss LGBT+ and/or racial diversity topics.... Left is my channel with the filter off (how it's supposed to look), right is with the filter on.

have had to dramatically re-change the title and thumb for the latest video.. idk what's happened but .. um 😅 just to give a heads up in case anyone thinks i've made an extra video

😂NEW VID 👻 Jumpscares and punchlines both rely on anticipation. Film uses sound & motion to build it, but manga is just ink on a page. So how does it keep us on edge? Well, that’s what my new video explores, through the works of Junji Ito and Yotsuba! youtu.be/y2SrMLuRt9U

I've now opened a shop with some merch! Available at: linesinmotion.shop Everyone supporting on patreon or youtube memberships get 15% off as a cheeky bonus. Bought and tried some myself, to check the quality, and they're super comfortable.

Every time I hunker down for a big editing session, the UK decides to throw a heatwave and my PC joins in, turning my room into an active volcano.

without revealing what the topic of my next video is, this is a hilarious ooc script bit

Finally sharing the trailer for Beware the Parasight, my queer-led apocalyptic novel, coming 2026! Grounded in disturbing biological realism, it’s a chilling dive into speculative horror (with sapphicness on the side). Art: @daniju-attart.bsky.social Logo: @rubri-san.bsky.social Animation: me👋

One thing that’s taking me forever with my book draft is cutting filler words and unnecessary descriptors. After about eight passes, my writing reads so much cleaner. Like going from “He shrugs his shoulders” to just “He shrugs.” I do it so often, but I guess that's what a draft is for.

fields of mistria update today, which means more valen and juniper being in a situationship whilst I watch from the sides with popcorn

🗑️NEW VID!🗑️ Even if unintentional, Gachiakuta couldn’t exist without graffiti - and by extension, the Black artists who pioneered it in the Bronx during the 70's. Its rebellion, identity, and visual style all echo that legacy. So.. let's talk about it! youtu.be/O30hGjAAcW4

Going to be making a manga lettering focused video in the future. If there's any letterers (for manga OR comics) that would love to take part in the video - share work, insights, complaints, pros or cons, things ppl don't know - then feel free to DM me!

Over on patreon, i've given patrons the chance to vote on the next video (there's quite a few topics to choose from). If you're wanting to have a say too, you can join my patreon for less than a coffee (£1)!

Anyone else noticed recently that if someone doesn't like something, the most common rebuttal of late is, "OP just didn't understand ___". I've seen that type of comment a LOT more recently. Idk if it's just the increase in self-righteousness people have about stuff they like or??

the comments on the video have been great so far, the real test is if it reaches outside my audience... like everything on social media 😭

🔵NEW VID🔵 Blue Flag starts strong, but by the end, it undermines so much of what made it special. This video breaks down the issues where it lost me: the time skip, Masumi, Kensuke, and more. Spoilers throughout (and ofc, opinions are my own). youtu.be/qm91oU27WCw

My newest video is now available to watch early for all tiers on Patreon! You can watch my videos early, support the channel, and join my discord for just £1 🙏 www.patreon.com/posts/video-...

My Blue Flag video will be coming out next week! 🔵

the uk heat got us both.....

getting some fillings done after a 12 hour shift was NOT the move, I'm a dumbass

just watched the newest Alien: Earth trailer, and damn FX really put some budget into this thing, it looks incredible!

Just realised, because Bring her Back isn't out till august 1st over here in the UK, (sony, what the fuck are you doing?!?!). that means it releases the same day as The Bad Guys 2. That's my barbenheimer.

oh, this is sickening

don't mind the shiny-ness, but got another tat done ☺️

last 2 weeks I've been on twitter (and my phone in general tbh) less just to work on my script and do other non-phone activities like swimming/reading etc. Crazy how much i don't feel drained by seeing the worst takes imaginable.. It really be these damn phones 😭

obviously not the main concern, but i do wonder with this big DMCA issue, if mangatubers (if you will) will be hit with strikes in the future. If anything happened to my channel i'm just becoming an asmr or react channel icl

my aim for the ace drawings… 🎾

i want to design some nice illustrations for one or two pieces of merch, but every time i pick up my pen to draw my mind goes blank, you can tell i haven't drawn in ages

Can't be overstated how fucked up it is that Black folk came up with a word to express people being aware of the oppression of other people and it's now targeted by far right governments globally as something evil that must be destroyed

my dog scaring the shit out of me at 1:17am in the morning........ he was sat in the dark like this before I turned the light on

I know i need to start using clickbait video titles more, but just on principle, I can't do it 😭. I know it's just part and parcel of the job and that clickbait *always* gets views but man... I hate that getting people mad is what truly gets attention nowadays

Read Dinosaur Sanctuary, a wonderful manga that explores the logistics of maintaining a dinosaur zoo in affectionate detail.

just had a crazy pull

"My Issues with Blue Flag" is going to be the next video, which is something new on the channel, as I normally cover things positively. Don't want it to be a hate video though, but constructive, as I did like 70% of it. Just the issues I had were too big to ignore.

Opening up my youtube thumbnail comms again! DM me if you're interested 😊 ko-fi.com/linesinmotio...

You can't just drop a video with THIS much peak fiction in it, it's not fair to everyone else (everyone drop what you're doing and read I Want to Be a Wall)
