I've got an opportunity lined up that should keep me solvent once it starts, but it won't be until about mid-late January, and I'm essentially at the last of my savings now. The $4000 I'm asking for here (ko-fi.com/sjhdoesgames) should be enough to keep me covered until that time. (2/3)

last fighting friday of the year (but not the last stream of the year, that's probably sunday)

we're probably going to be maintaining elena in sf6 ranked tonight, or something like that. We're at about $2522/63% of my rent mutual aid goal, come by to share it or hang out!

Something that I think I'm going to do once I manage to get in a stable position: a modified version of the Saitama workout to see if just doing some basic-ass fitness will help get enough momentum rolling to keep it going.

But it requires a mini-treadmill lol (1/2)

Hey— I need help.

Covering for mother’s living expenses,being out of job PTO, and increasing costs of utilities have sent my finances crashing from a downward spiral.

I have a fundraiser up in order to safely attend AGDQ, and to have a home to come back to.

Didn't receive a dime yesterday, and I wasn't able to eat anything yesterday as a result.

I know it's just a couple of days before Christmas, but can somebody—ANYBODY—help me out here? At least $30 so I can eat today? 💕💸

So the food goal wasn't cleared again. Gonna have to restart with that. Also have a bill that is due the end of this week. TOTAL GOAL of $250, any help is greatly appreciated. 🖤🤎💕💸

Thanks to very gracious community members we've smashed through to 61%, a huge gain that's unlocked a Nocturne HDR rerun at some point in either '26 or '27. I've also extended the ask into January, till the end of Jan '26.

I deeply appreciate everyone's help thus far. Thank you. #MutualAid

making a new post bc i have to give up on raising funds for food; my phone bill is due the 28th and i need to raise $60. having cell service is extremely important for me as a disabled person, anything helps 🙇🏼💸💕 #BIPOCMA #MAV bsky.app/profile/stem...

big thanks, everyone. see ya sunday for dread

My #MutualAid campaign is still going on as well. 43% ($1722) so far for my winter rent fund at ko-fi.com/sjhdoesgames, I know times are tight, but if you can spread or give it's appreciated.

For the record, this is why you gotta push back against what's wrong. Even when it seems like it might be pointless, even when it seems like you're gone talking to a wall. You have to stand up for *something* or even the possibility of change can't bloom.

So stand up, and keep standing up.
And just like that, SFWA capitulates. Keep fighting. It works.

literally had this conversation with @ludodraconisvt.bsky.social while working out feedback we got on Shootlanzer's how to play screen.

In order, her interpretation of the feedback, my plan for how to animate it, her final suggestion, & the current WIP (see next post for animated GIF).

I made a Ko-Fi donation initiative since my husband mentioned there will be fees for him being released. For now I set it at $2k, anything left over is being donated to Palestine charities. Anything helps, and I’m very grateful for all the support I’ve gotten.

Street Fighter Alpha 3
Dead or Alive 2
Dragon Ball Z Budokai 3
Guilty Gear XX Reload

I still really, really want to release a fighting game professionally someday. Or work on one, either way, but I'd have to either get someone who really knows rollback or work w/a framework with rollback. (1/2)

In all seriousness, using generative AI in any part of your process is just lazy and sucks all of the personality out of a project. You guys played ValiDate: Volume 1 and understand why we stress the importance of human creativity. AI can't replicate Coochie Man!

To all the young people in New York and across our country who count on gender-affirming care:

I won't let this administration come for you, your doctors, or your lifesaving health care. 

Your health care is still legal and protected. 

I'll always fight for you.

I had to watch Alabama's ban on gender affirming care for minors go into effect. It impacted multiple people in my life. It is cruel beyond words.

Pick up the phone. Call all of your reps. Don't tell me it won't matter--I call Tommy Tuberville. EVERY FUCKIN' TIME. I won't gift them silence on this.
This is possibly the most significant attack on trans rights in this country yet, and I can count the number of posts on my timeline about this on my hands.

If you're trying to dismiss this thinking "It'll die in the senate," DON'T! Sound the alarms now!
Bluesky tonight is neatly divided between trans people and family members appropriately angry and freaking out and everyone else who has barely noticed.

A fun fact about Shootlanzer is that all of the current voice-over work in it, temporary as it is, is done by me trying to do a low level impression of Greg Ayres circa Street Fighter Alpha 3

If you've seen the game in person in the last few months or come see it at Magfest you'll get to hear it
No texture? Scribble on white.
No material? Magenta.
No geo? Whack some primitives together?
No sounds? 8 bit fx generator. Use your voice.

Jesus fuck shit it isn't rocketscience.
