Wolf Bride - Spring is out! ylvanaar.itch.io/wolf-bride (The Summer Early Access is also out, and for this weekend you can get it for a discounted price. See below for more:)

Wolf Bride - Spring launches the day after tomorrow, on Friday! For those of you who are into #romantasy and #werewolf romances, make sure to come check the launch out! There will also be a Ko-Fi sales weekend for the tier that will give you Early Access for the first part of Summer 👀 (👇)

I'm plugging Scrivener again today. This is not a subscription program; you pay a one-time license fee. The software is installed on your computer, and you don't need to be online to use it. It's worth the $60 but discounts float around. They once generously gave ficwip one for our writers!

"The results are astonishingly clear. On rewilded land, biodiversity surged across the board, with the number of bird species up 261%. The variety of bumblebee and butterfly species more than doubled, their abundance increased over 10x." The cure for nature loss exists. share.google/w30RUdw1902W...

comics are so hard to make. give ur local cartoonist a big kiss

How to piss off a tyrannical government in 1 easy step: READ Read what? Anything you want. Fluffy romance, the entire works of Tolkien, poetry, Paddington bear, whatever you want. Carving out 1hr a day to read helps develop thinking skills that tyrants fear.

I have no idea where to put this, but I'm making a new summer dress and filming a small cozy compilation about it! Perhaps I will just put it here and make it because making it has been pleasant for me <3

*taps the sign again*

QTP with women 🌓 Happy Women's Day! (Pictured: the four genders; Whimsical, Soldier Maiden, The Other Of The Forest, and Trauma)

I need every single male artist that follows me to read this. It's not very long. You need to bear witness to this shit. You have to see it with your own eyes because you never will in your everyday life. I'm serious, read it all please

I posted to my Ko-Fi about making art, working on multiple disciplines and mediums at the same time, about storytelling and about this way of life that is of creation. ko-fi.com/post/To-be-a...

I posted a public update on my Ko-Fi to show what is on the calendar! (There is also info about an upcoming discount for the Shimmering Moon tier, so make sure to check that out 👀) ko-fi.com/i/IJ3J81V575K

Happy #Pokemon30 ! Happy #PokemonDay ! And very happy waiting for #PokemonWinds #PokemonWaves

Fridays are for #dnd

March will be #WolfBride month - or, as I fondly like to call it, "Engine Punch Month". That's when I take out my notebooks, my sketching document on my app, and start putting the text into the engine, or "punching it in". 21 days until "Spring" comes out. That means I'm writing "Summer" now.

It is wild to me that Wolf Bride has reached such an audience already, when the Spring chapter that adds 50 000 words to the story and some very crucial plot beats only comes out in a bit over 20 days! I'm grateful - clearly there is not enough #werewolf romance out there.

Read this thread. This is why that taboo art you don't like needs to exist. Block it if it upsets you. Move on with your life. But dont destroy the safety nets and frameworks for actual victims that would come about by forcing everything right back into another Hays Code cuz you can't press a button

Things that have happened in my Ko-Fi recently: - Brand of Gold early access (kink and polyamory 101 discussions) - Old Magic early access (true name magic) - Sketchbook dump Next month, when Wolf Bride - Spring comes out, Summer progress will be on Early Access 🐺! ko-fi.com/ylvanaar/gal...

Hey. Tell people when they do good job. When you like the stuff they make. When you like the characters they’ve created. The stories they’ve told. Nobody hears it as often as you think bc everyone thinks everyone hears it all the time. Trust. They don’t. Tell. Them.

one of the coolest games we are publishing!! - for every copy sold we'll PLANT 1 REAL TREE!! - with "we" I mean developer @henrydriver.bsky.social who lives on a farm with space for trees - Treeplanter, a nature diorama builder - demo out now for Steam next fest. link below - full game coming soon

In three days, me and mine have heard of three people being temporarily or permanently laid off, or being in the danger of doing so. It's really rough times for a lot of people. I'm grateful every day to have a job that can pull us through - I thought the economy is getting better?

If you're doing callout posts about artists creating fictional taboo content, you may not consider yourself a fascist, but you are one. You are their stupid tool at the bare minimum. The good news is you can stop doing that at any time

Tales from Tech Support goes #espanõl ! El Cuervo De Soporte Técnico esta en Tapas: tapas.io/episode/3816...

Writing tip: you don't have to imagine super villain dialogue, you can just get it from the news.

Our healer, Elena: "Has anyone taken damage? Izar? Aleph?" Me: "Izar has more than one HP left." Our paladin: "Aleph too." Me: "Nice." Healer: *Makes concerned #healer noises*

Things you can only do in #dnd with people you know and trust: Our paladin, Aleph: "I step closer to the enemies to take my attack." Me right at my next storm, already setting up Lightning Bolt: "Aleph, how much HP do you have?" The answer was "Enough".

Whoops oh no I dropped something… you saw mine and @ylvanaar.bsky.social ’s two new pages of Exorcism!! how will I recover www.patreon.com/posts/exorci... #nsfwcomics #comicoop

My other recent #Elfbruary offerings include but are not limited to...

It's almost time for Ramadan, as Muslims tonight peered to the crescent moon to see if the month of Ramadan starts tonight or the day after. As with every year, I'm starting this thread so that people can ask questions, and learn about Ramadan from one person's perspective of it.

Happy #LunarNewYear!

YOU MUST HAVE SOMETHING TO EAT TO HAVE STRENGTH TO CRUSH YOUR ENEMIES.

Wait wait wait... I think I finally figured out who they are. Who the customer is for this AI: the IDEA GUY. You know, that dude who breezes into your mentions who thinks their idea is special. That it's the most important thing. To them, the prompt IS the game! How did I not see this sooner?

No story. No arc. No progression. No clever level design. No motivation for the player to *want* to continue playing. All of these things require intention, and if "character running through an environment" is enough to impress you? Your notion of how things work is, shall we say, vague as f.

"Bro, the games industry is cooked!" and it's always a video of some character running through an environment. Shooting enemies, maybe, or picking up hearts? Mostly running. Sure, the environment looks decent, from a distance... but this is, apparently, all they think is needed to show "potential".

This #ValentinesDay, why not check out the love story, a sapphic creation myth, and a confession all in one free poetry book, "We Grew Into Each Other"? ylvanaar.itch.io/we-grew-into...

Today you will get information about me: I have a habit of losing my tea. I make a cup of tea, then something happens, and the teacup is no longer in my hands. Where is my evening tea? Your guess is as good as mine. I now have to get up and wander around the apartment like a ghost to find it.

It’s #Elfbruary and I’m taking part with a small Cutter doodle ❤️

Again I find myself angered by the fact that people seem to believe that all art is supposed to make you happy. Art isn’t meant to make you happy. It’s not for your happiness. It’s for your sadness, your anger, your fear, and yes, sometimes, a lot of the time, for your joy. But not always.

A reminder: this is an Irishman with valid papers speaking about how he's being held in US concentration camps. If you don't have to go to the US, do not go to the US. "GDC" is not "have to go". One denial at the border is going to mark you for life, and that's the best of the bad outcomes.

Hey y'all. A South African dev released a blackity black game during BHM and it's currently getting the usual suspects in the reviews. Imma grab this up myself anyway, but can we all be some chums and help push the racists out of the reviews? 🙂

For anyone looking for #Discord replacement, check out Stoat. Looks the same and functions the same, but it's EU-based and, IF you feel like you want to give it a go, supports self-hosting.

It's so wild that we live in a world where the response to "teenagers don't like genocide" is politicians pushing "let's stop teenagers from using the internet" so hard that Discord has opted to shoot its own foot off www.theverge.com/tech/875309/...

Sorry to vent on main but I'm just so sick of being a grown-ass adult online who can't openly enjoy talking about or drawing sex stuff even in completely adult spaces where all minors are completely banned just because everyone has gotta be such fascist controlling fucking babies about it

Some more #Elfbruary things. This time we have Dragon Age 2, World of Warcraft, a shadar-kai and Zelda from Tears of the Kingdom!

Played some Soul Calibur with @muggshotter.bsky.social and Kilik's long pokes just never failed at round start
