Canada Post “lost” 1 billion dollars last year? How about, “it cost Canadians 1 billion dollars to have a national postal service” which works out to costing about $25 a year per person (population of Canada in 2024 = 40 million). Seems like a pretty reasonable cost to me.

I graciously had huge help from a good friend this month for main bills, but it's been offset by a total BS surprise bill that I can't ignore, right before rent. I am pretty much beyond stress and nothing is selling. I know this'll be probably impossible by the 1st but I'll take any help I can get.

hiii, no stream today, taking a rest day <3

In case AI art didn't made you mad already.

i got myself a dragon sona btw, their name is fumeya! i immediately resonated w this design when I saw it ;; (art and design by @carnaroe.bsky.social )

It's difficult to overstate the influence Recettear's surprise hit of a digital English release was in terms of getting the Japanese games industry to turn their heads towards PC as a viable release platform. We all owe a lot to Andrew and his work and I'm so sad to hear this.

Absolutely devastated by this news. SpaceDrake was no doubt a huge influence in drumming up interest for Japanese indie games localized into English and pushing for them on digital distribution storefronts like steam. Huge loss. Might be time for another playthrough of Recettear in his honour.

small delay, one of my colab partners is MIA

Neurodivergent folks should all be paid a stipend to do things we like to do, and the world would end up benefiting from it.

So, from no true Elder Dragons in MH Wilds to GOG-FUCKING-MAZIOS?!?!?! The ENORMOUS gunpowder-eating, Fortress-destroying boy exclusive to MH4u's G-Rank? What a hell of a first Elder holy shit

Sometimes in my work I need to delete the Blender Default Cube, but don't worry, the cube consents to this!

Tonight on Mass Effect, more main story shenanigans! Along with probably some questing and/or panicking at hacking minigames. We'll get started in just over an hour from now! Waiting room: www.youtube.com/watch?v=JgpQ...

it's so nice to see what a functioning judiciary looks like "A transgender woman in the East African nation of Kenya has won a landmark court victory in which the judge not only found in her favour, but ordered the government to pass a Transgender Protection Rights Act." fuck yeah

I cannot emphasize this enough: The regime has overextended itself. It is vulnerable to protest and dissent. They have not consolidated power and we are entirely capable of keeping them from doing so. Doomers are not realists.

Schedule time! Another Trifecta week with the usuals!~ #StreamSchedule | #Vtuber | #envtuber | #Vsky

I love artists I love supporting artists I love commissioning artists I used to be so anxious when I commissioned things but now I just get all giddy when I do

Some of you might recognize konane and indeed have played it! It's in Bannerlord as the Sturgia tavern game. If you've tried it before, this article might be interesting to you

Blackouts only really work if what you’re targeting is dependent on your continued presence for monetization. Given that BlueSky has zero monetization it makes more sense to stick around and be as loud as possible. In fact they’re probably losing money from you being here.

people with EDS should get a free reset button for their joints, a button that pops and relocates and readjusts all of them and gets all the tension out.

BREAKING: The U.K., Canada and Australia officially recognize a Palestinian state, a significant shift away from alignment with the U.S.

I'm still aiming for 1000 Twitch followers by the end of the year. I think it's gonna be tough, but I want to try. If you feel like helping me out with that... 🥺👉👈 twitch.tv/theproloe #Vtuber #ENVTuber #VSky

This is a BAD idea from a tactical pov all this means is an issue that bsky mods do NOT want controversy around will have NO posting about it for a full week a large number of people who come back from the "blackout" will likely not start up the complaints again it hamstrings the cause

Sketched the princess when she was pregnant 🥺

This shit makes me so mad because people don't understand how much power we have over these companies and the only thing we need to do is not give them money. The only thing we need to do is to not do anything. It's the easiest shit! *wearily* collective action does work, it really does

The solution right now is not saying “move to Mastodon, to Pillowfort, use Picarto galleries” etc, bc that won't stop this silent escalation of censorship and sexual repression on the internet. The issue is not which platform we choose, but rather raising our voices against what is happening.

🌳💕🫂

ftr this isn't the first time bluesky has done stupid as fuck shit. I was here in the trenches in 2023 watching them pull dumb moves and get yelled down by everyone to back down, successfully. the people running this place are not on your side but they are hilariously easy to bully. go hard.

I just realized that every incredibly small, hand-sized person i know is pink as heck, from my partners Elfi and @luetta.bsky.social, to those around me like @proloe.gay? So many small pink cuties.........

The confession

Long haul yall, it is making a difference. We don't know how we're affecting things behind the scenes until we know.

One of the sillier aspects of combating issues like this is that as the corpos start to realize they don’t actually have wide support, they start going silent. CS did the same after about the 3rd week The lack of feedback can have a pseudo-chilling effect on activists, don’t let it Do those dailies

Random reminder as I'm slowly reclaiming my energy for creating stuff, I have commissions for pixel art open! Feel free to reach out here on bluesky or through my discord if you want anything made~ #pixelart

Okay, I really hate that I have to do this but... In about two months I'm not gonna have anywhere to go and I don't have enough money to get a place. I'm not exactly sure what I really need, financially, but anything is helpful so... here's my kofi I guess... ko-fi.com/proloe

Let's respond to hate with love. Let's respond to love with big love. To those who are anti-transgender, Chiitan isn't asking you to understand transgender people. I ask that you quietly watch over us. Transgender people just want to be happy with the people they love🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

As you cancel streaming services, here is a casual reminder that only 16% of Americans read for pleasure anymore, and your local library has hundreds or thousands of books you haven't read. They would love to see you stop by and renew your library card.

Gorillaz using their return coming out as super pro Palestine, with their highly anticipated new album about to come out, takes some serious bravery to do Hat off to them, they rule

Okay but why is the new version of GUMI doing the "let's take ibuprofen together" pose?

Games called DELIVERY MUST COMPLETE now #gamedev #indiedev

Oh my gosh well hello there! That was really quick, I'm so glad everyone's so eager to see my 2.0 reveal! I'm a real dwagon now! 🐲👉👈 Still need to get rigged, debut date TBD! I know bsky will probably kill the quality so I'll also post it on my discord and probably The Dragon Council discord also!
