in making Things I've come to notice that some of the characters I get the strongest positive feedback on are the minor ones that usually start as one-off gags

the dragon obsessed cultists who share a brain cell and go "oh my gawwwwwd" exemplify this best lol

it's #FCF again and it's time to post the Flattest of Cats on main for y'all to marvel at

he is exceptionally Flat today and this should be celebrated

in celebration of auspicious election news here is a rare photo of my three cats on their cat tree together

look I don't need much pretext to post pussy but I'll take what I can get

ever have a story idea pop up that both has you excited about where it could go and curious as to if you can adequately do it justice

just had one that feels like it'd need to go in a video game (RPG) but I need to figure out the rest (and how to make it happen lol)

rolled credits on the Dragon Quest I remake after 18 hours

it was fun and very much expanded on the original in a way that felt organic and connected to III

now on to Dragon Quest II lol
let's see how long that one is

just because it's getting cold and my garden is in its last throes doesn't mean I can't get one last batch of pesto from my garden

because if it ain't green, I'm not interested

over 50k words into a manuscript and I have no idea how good it actually is

this feels like a normal part of the process lol

at this point I reckon that at least 69% of what ai post is #Cat content

this is no exception

(why 69, you may ask; it's because both sides benefit)

subject: #FCF

yes I used that one before but it's simple and effective when presenting Cat that is Flat

upside of buying things online: the cats get a new box

going from the girthy Xenoblade games to Pokémon Legends Z-A was fun considering that it took about half the time to roll credits on it

Legends is really fun though
definitely feels like they nailed Lumiose City feeling like Paris this time and it was an enjoyable romp throughout

apropos of nothing here are some old travel pictures lol
October 18, 2025 at 12:37 AM
on this #FCF y'all get it extra Flat lol
October 17, 2025 at 4:51 AM
just rolled credits on Xenoblade Chronicles 3 after a more reasonable 72 hours of playtime (compared to 88 for the second one)

it was fun lol
definitely enjoyed the ride

getting lost in a girthy RPG is an underrated feeling
October 16, 2025 at 6:19 PM
all right it's live lol

"Shadowmaker", a little gay urban fantasy with plenty of weird shit, is live
wouldn't call it my best work but I think it's a fun enough romp

Saturdays are for posting the softest and most hateful kittens or something

two years ago I published the 1.0 version of my first video game. "Chronicles of Dramarith I"
yes I am still proud of having done it

here's some screenshots from that game I don't think I posted here yet
feel free to be horrified
