Look at dis and contact ya reps about how bad this is if it helps Kosa passing would mean almost every site online especially social media and YouTube or such will need ID verification and it won't be optional x.com/i/status/206...

Thank you for a wonderful ride @gooseworx.bsky.social

“Died of sadness,” according to family. An immeasurable loss.

A new op-ed in the Washington Times finally says the quiet part out loud: Fascism demands sexual repression. "Pornography corrodes the exact social foundation that supports national strength... A society marked by loneliness, weakened families and diminished social trust becomes brittle."

I think this article is supposed to make me turn my nose up at Gabe here but I think yelling at a person you pay trying to pressure you into caving to the whims of puritanical credit card companies is wholly appropriate

happy pride 💕

Big news regarding TCM’s next major update, please take a moment to read this carefully! After a lot of deliberation, I have decided to charge for the full release of the game but that price doesn't apply if the game's in your steam library. Read more for deets. www.tumblr.com/tricitymonst...

Pick it up

My team and I are facing a UI design issue and gameuidatabase.com is incredibly helpful in showing a full spectrum of ways to approach & address it. Why reinvent the wheel when you can look at 1000 other designs at a glance?! What an amazing (and free!) resource.

We also got DESK MATS up in the Merch store so if you're looking to support TCM with hot sexy dollars, this is a great way to do it! tricitymonstermarket.etsy.com

Here comes the good time boy!!!

They aren't walking back their stance on NSFW, they're only walking back the restrictions on "implied" or "artistic" nudity/nsfw. Pornography is still outright banned, which means KS is still a no go for most NSFW projects.

Kickstarter has reverted their policy changes on Adult Content! They issued an apology, siting Stripe as the reason. The pressure we put on them worked. This is a step in the right direction. But the threat of Stripe remains. It’d be great to see KS end ties with them & process payments elsewhere.

what it feels like to be an nsfw artist sometimes

Annoy the living daylights out of both payment processors and your local government. Never let them know peace while they are disturbing yours.

I guess I should be glad I ran my Kickstarter when I did. There's really going to be no future for indie adult content if indie creators can't subsist off their labor.

I understand Nintendo fans want everything to be cartoon cereal mascot games but I'd like to point out from an artist's standpoint, that the new game's art style is adapting the style from the SNES game's artwork into a modern look and I personally think that's really cool!

Mori's route is getting close to the climax!!

"Age Verification" is a dog whistle for "Government Control of who uses a computer" 'Safety' is the favorite Trojan horse for authoritarianism. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xa3-...

BAFTA pulling a trailer for an autobiographical game about surviving sexual assault only hours before it was said to be a part of a showcase is an exceptionally bad look.

the bill is 'H.R.8250' while usually i'd take a "wait and see" approach to a bill that has only been introduced, the us govt is moving FAST wrt age verification, so please, contact your representatives (particularly the house) and advocate against AV on device laws www.congress.gov/members/find...

A statement regarding the removal of DDLC from the Google Play Store:

To everyone asking for a template: voila 🤲🏽 I even added a frame! Just in time for somebody to put live-action Maui in there Please meme responsibly 🫶🏽

I finally finished it, that was fun! I'm slowly getting comfortable with using a digital tablet for actual drawing, and finding methods that work for me. My #OC Nergui's profile for @tricitymonsters.com VN~ If you like sexy monsters, compelling stories and inclusive MC options, give it a read!

Inititives like this are a huge part of how developers in Canada, Germany, and other countries with such grants were able to wind up such flourishing indie scenes tbh

Im at Game On Expo in Phoenix, come say hi for some freebies!💜💜💜

In the light of recent Subscribestar situation I think it's a good time to dust off this post from a while ago. Still very much on point.

Re: contacting your reps: don't overthink your method too much. Just contact. Express your concerns. And do it often. Once a week, if you can. We need action now. No hesitation because you're worried "what is best" or "how you sound" -- these are things you'll get better at doing so just ACT.

Reminder that the only time Mastercard has flinched is when outrage was directed at them. Attacking platforms like SubscribeStar for Visa/Mastercard's extralegal censorship is exactly the deflection they want.

You need to call your reps and demand that they OPPOSE: -the KIDS Act -KOSA -the Screen Act -Sammy's Law -the App Store Accountability Act And additionally, oppose: -reforming/sunsetting Section 230 -online age verification/ID laws www.congress.gov/members/find...

I'll be at Game On Expo in Phoenix, Arizona this Friday! More details forthcoming but if you're gonna be there come say hi!

YYYYYEAAAAAAAH BOYYYYYY

My 9 most formative games: Not necessarily all 10/10 experiences across the board but very inspiring to my voice as a writer.

Gonna be that guy again: you have to support trans work while you know you can. It's more at risk than ever and I know some of you are engaging with the art and just not telling the creator! So take this as your sign to tell somebody you enjoyed their work. It makes a difference.

This thread is now dedicated to organizing aid for trans refugees If you need help or have help to offer, please @ me Instructions and updates to follow in below 🧵 www.erininthemorning.com/p/kansas-sen...

I had some feelings about the Gooseworx situation that I expounded on over on the tumblr www.tumblr.com/tricitymonst... Tldr indies are not protected from their audience at all, and im not saying crit/complaints are off the table but please remember thats a person fighting to make something cool.

"Congratulations on your niche online subculture breaking containment and finding commercial success! Your punishment for succeeding when you're not supposed to will be endless scrutiny over your sexual interests and judgement over what you're allowed to like under the hetero-patriarchy."

husband reveal 💫

they're very sorry they got caught

You and your trusted third party partners leaked thousands of people's information so no, only requiring Facial Scans and Govt IDs for some users is still not good enough. You're actively making the internet less safe.

Amir chapter 7 is OUT! Go play it on Steam or Itch!!

もう少し…

Amir says you deserve a reward for waiting so patiently 💜

i am both wound and blade, the torturer and the flayed #berserk

Reminder that I'll be at Taiyoucon tomorrow afternoon/evening so if you're in attendance def come find me for some TCM goodies! More details and I guess a face reveal TBA soon!

Thank you SPECIFICALLY to the person who toggles between cams on the @montereybayaquarium.org live view of the bay this morning to make sure I saw that sea otter swim across frame. If I can't be there in person, this is the next best arrangement and at least I'm still getting work done. 💜

Quint.
