Also, hello to new followers from Twitter! I'm Loira. Some of you might vaguely recall me from WoW. These days I sometimes write TTRPG reviews! I stream cozy-horror games on Twitch even more rarely!
Mostly I help out my friends in Urban Heat, and write about my time on the road with them.

Update: Along with this, I am also updating the suggestion/voting form AND the free gallery.
The new free gallery will be accessible to everyone no user account needed, easy to download from and have a faves system. Did I mention free?
Really excited! It will be all less hodgepodge than it is now.

I'm creating a really fun user gallery for Trueref.io!
It'll have an appreciates system that's not tied to user accounts. And a front page art feature system, inspired by DeviantArt's old Daily Deviantations!
Other cool things too to try and help pump your socials & show off your art.

Reminder to fellow SADers that turning on your SAD lamp is transformational. I finally turned mine on and felt my whole face drawn toward it like a starving moth.

Who do I know who knows things about computers? I built mine almost a decade ago, have not touched it since, and feel like upgrading to a prebuilt will, at this point, be more cost effective than upgrading parts.
But don't know what I don't know. 😅

"What if one of YOUR favorite politicians/celebrities/etc is on the list?" Did you all not notice how quickly we dropped Neil Gaiman when we found out about the things he did? Do you know how beloved that guy used to be and how loathed he is now? I think that right there should answer your question.

If you have any questions, I would be happy to provide answers. Thank you everyone! I hate asking, but I'm genuinely strapped for cash. Tony seems to have adopted our porch as his safe space, so I'd like to keep it that way for him until we can make alternative plans for him.
