played homo-i mean, homicipher last night, mr. crawling my beloved... can't believe i'm conducting linguistic studies to be able to communicate with him and the other monster waifus (<- idiot playing on the hardest difficulty)

i don't think i've expressed how much i love gdt's portrayal of the creature and it drives me insane that jacob elordi did such an amazing job of capturing the essence of how the creature is portrayed within the book

i'm really glad people are waking up to how so much of the technological devolution we're having is deeply intertwined with the current GenAI craze. even the noticeably high outages we experience from AWS to cloudflare are related to this, since companies across the board are prioritizing GenAI

let me tell you a story #mightynein #calebwidogast

the reception to this years tga is understandable once you realize it attracted more viewers than the super bowl and people have grave misunderstandings how award shows work. it's not about quality, it's about popularity. there are phenomenal games that i've played that haven't even gotten noticed

caleb widogast.. . . . #mightynein

being an artist drawn to several genres at once is difficult mostly because it means you attract a variety of followers, but the intersection between those interests are next to nonexistent. like yes i read classics, i also read danmei, but i also watch tons of movies, and watch anime and-

happy (belated) frankenstein day

Hello! I've finally decided to take on some writing commissions! These will be open indefinitely and I've included a form with more detailed information ❤️ Likes & shares are much appreciated! forms.gle/aa3zWRLpaUW9...

halfway through now and wondering if this was deeply influenced by count of monte cristo since the revenge plot is so ridiculously similar + edmond dantes/the count and heathcliff are the pinnacle emo gothic boys. man, can always rely on 1800s gothic novels to deliver

reading wuthering heights for the first time (it was marketed heavily as romance and i'm not the biggest fan, only realizing i was MISLED), and heathcliff is such a well written character i'm absolutely obsessed

just to piggyback on this: change isn't made through silence because your absence will not be noticed if you're not directly funneling money into their pockets. you do it by making your presence (and your grievances) known by wearing them down. that is how change is made time and time again

already saw the moderation team for this site fumbling the bag from a billion miles away. disappointing to see the decisions being made here, but not entirely surprised. just extremely frustrating how depictions of problematic elements in fiction are becoming more and more limited

HAPPY 5 YEARS OF HADES!!! I’m super excited for Hades 2, supergiant is one of my favorite game studios ever and their games have helped me thru rough times!!! still have these companion sticker sheets I made last month! michiums.bigcartel.com/product/eter... #hades #hadesgame #art #stickersheets

world is awful so i'm indulging in illustrating a few things for myself here and there even if i'm confident it'll get no traction, but i promise i'll be back to posting fairly consistently once i find my footing in this chaotic ass job market

what tale will you tell? #SultansGame #苏丹的游戏

so this censorship against nsfw works of any kind huh.......

also once again, i hate to get sappy and melodramatic but the only reason why i don't descend into a doomerist spiel is because of other marginalized individuals who continue being stalwart allies to the palestinian cause and not falling into the same traps as... other prominent figures

damn, weaponizing the suffering of marginalized people against a whole genocide sure is a Take

see things as they are #clairobscurexpedition33 #expedition33

to boil it down to a party predicament is whitewashing the suffering of all marginalized individuals. war has happened under every party, families have been erased countlessly year after year. this is not a peculiarity, this was an inevitably of all the suffering america has been allowed to do

my insanity on full display

being middle eastern means one catastrophic news update after another, it's absolutely wonderful

the old man yaoi potential of javert and jean valjean

being a kid of refugees makes this ordeal against ICE hit harder than most because i fully understand what drives immigrants, legal or not, to do what they do. imagine the desperation that drives families to seek out a new life elsewhere, imagine these very same families being deported long after

i think i've reached a level of political exhaustion that i've never anticipated before because of the daily clownery of the events and the fact that the public responds to it fairly consistently e.g (old) news resurfaces -> EVERYONE is talking about it -> it soon gets buried in favor of other news

new capcom game, suda51 game, beautiful environments/monster designs of silent hill f... safe to say this state of play is pretty good

watching the witcher 4 ue5 demo and i'm frothing at the mouth. even though i have my misgivings against an AAA studio adopting ue5, it still looks as ridiculously beautiful as their games usually are... i absolutely cannot wait to be absolutely obnoxious about it

happy pride month btw

"i ought to be thy adam, but i am rather the fallen angel" #frankenstein

rewatching black sails since i have nearly forgotten most things about it but man. shows like this have somehow become rarer and rarer where it captures the sexual liberation of a society that is unbound by western control and staunchly against imperialism in its overarching narrative

nearing the end-ish of the game and i'm constantly surprised that no one is talking about the first berserker: khazan as much as it deserves, especially when the main character looks like this

i love finding reasons to procrastinate on catching up to wha (i was such an early reader that i read it when it just released the orufrey betrayal chapter and i've been avoiding it since). finally ran out of said reasons and been chipping away at it and man. dagda and coustas. Man

just going to post at any time now, i've lost all energy to care

replayed dmc1 #devilmaycry

i think this test doesn't know i don't have a single functioning brain cell bouncing around my skull

i wish bsky had drafts because it'd be ass o'clock at night and i'd remember drawings that i wanted to share, but then i keep forgetting to share them when i wake up the morning after

finding it harder and harder to yap like i usually do on twitter about things i've enjoyed recently not only because the algo loves to boost negativity, but it seems like even the people there have generally grown more reactionary on both sides and even rising fascistic sentiments from the left

another obscure oc illustration

#CastlevaniaNocturne doodles that i definitely did not forget about

i feel like a few years ago, there has been a drought of stories that i was looking forward to and now, there's so many... like after a long stretch of no new additions to the witcher, andrzej sapkowski finally released a book centering on young geralt and the eng translation is coming out sept

the first berserker: khazan is so. SO much fun. it contains the same level of enjoyability as lies of p for me in recent years, where the mcs hold as much intrigue as the worldbuilding but most importantly, it's essentially about guts and griffith but this time around, guts has the unrequited crush
