Me: It's past the point that I should have heard back about that submission but I know from experience these things can get delayed. Be patient, give it another month then maybe try elsewhere. Don't worry about it.

You ever wonder if some of the monsters and entities in the Backrooms aren't actually native and just no-clipped in from their own reality?

Like they're just as lost and confused as any humans who get stuck there but they're also better at adapting to the new environment than we are.

My body decided I'm starting February with bloodshed and internal chainsaws!

I hate this uterus so much 😡

So I've just seen Markiplier's Iron Lung film and WOW! If you get the chance to see it you really should, this was an incredibly intense film experience. It's tense, claustrophobic and uncomfortable yet utterly mesmerizing; I barely blinked throughout the whole runtime.

The dress bloody worked! I've been doing little half hour burts and have got a few thousand words written, and even when I started to drift I found myself looking at things to edit. Taking a break to make dinner but then I'm eager to get back into it.

This is now officially my writing dress!
Welp depression is making productivity hard and I really want to write so I decided to try something I've always wanted to do. Got dressed up in my gothic dress just for a writing session. Honestly just wearing this dress makes me feel happy so hopefully that motivates me.

Wish me luck 🤞

Poolscape by CosmicArcade is an INCREDIBLE poolrooms inspired game with gorgeous PSX graphics and an immaculate sound design, it really hits that balance between peaceful exploration and unsettling ambience. Definitely recommend giving this demo a go.

Why don’t we have an abundance of YA fiction where shit like THIS is the premise rather than “kids have to murder each other in the murder game.”??
🚨BREAKING🚨

Zohran Mamdani will FORCE all New Yorkers to complete a MANDATORY playthrough of Lifeline for the PS2 using untested third party PS2 microphones.

What are your thoughts on this!?

Deviantart. I was introduced to it through a friend who also got me into fanfiction and stayed on it for years. It was a great early platform to share stories and characters, interact with other fans and have fun. My account is gone (deleted it when AI got introduced) but I still have fond memories.
Okay, let's get nostalgic

What was the VERY FIRST online platform that you became addicted to posting on?????

Decided to look at the Steam wrap for this year and this right here? This confirms something I've been thinking for ages. A perfect game for me (that I'm pretty sure nobody will ever make unless I learn how to make it myself) is a horror life-sim game.

Welp, time for me to once again ramble for far too many posts (that I don't think people actually read but I don't care I will keep doing it) about the newest game by my favourite developer @arcadekitten.bsky.social

And yes, Lucky Rabbit Club is AMAZING!

Merry Unbirthday to me!

Wait... no that's the other 364 days of the year, today is my actual birthday.

Somehow that's less fun to say.

Oh no what if the cenobites from Hellraiser are just waiting for a safe-word and that's what's wrong!!!

Turned on my computer and this was the date showing so... greetings from the future!

Things aren't too bad. You can all look forward to poached ice cream, Saw XXXVII and the official annexation of Finland into the Insect Empire.

Just got my first ending of Silent Hill F.

...

I need to jump straight into New Game Plus and get more information because goddammit Ryukishi07 gave me just enough information to put together a picture but hid enough pieces that curiosity is ripping my brain to shreds!

So my Silent Hill game suddenly became Onimusha.

...

I don't know how to feel about that.

So after umming and ahhing over pre-ordering Silent Hill F I still haven't finished my first run 🤣

Part of that is because I had a holiday to go on and part of it is a frustrating cough that will not leave (currently waiting on X ray results).

But how is the game so far?

AMAZING!
