Drop some CLOWNS
The cover of an old Champions Third Edition sourcebook from Hero Games. The title is C.L.O.W.N., with the leters all askew as they've been knocked around by the title characters. Below it are two men, one in a fancy suit and hat, the other in a bright blue and yellow jester's outfit with pale make-up and red cheeks. They are struggling to shove the Liberty Bell into the front trunk of a green Volkswagen Beetle that is *far* too small for such a large monument. The text near the bottom says it's by Stan West. At the very bottom it spells out what C.L.O.W.N. stands for: The Criminal Legion Of Wacky Non-conformists.

I keep meaning, and forgetting, to post this here. My witch done in a dapper suit by @yamino.bsky.social, who has an entire commission slot just for dapper suits for people to consider. Because what suits your character like a suit?
Tryse, a tall, thin witch in a dapper suit and her hair pulled back into a long braid. All green, with a purple tie. She's holding a hat and has on high heeled wingtips. Art by Yamino. She looks kind of nervous, and that's probably because it's about to be her first date with the girl she's going to confess to. She's gonna recite Sappho at her. She's a sap. It'll work, though.

Post a female character you love
A picture of Jun the Swan from Science Ninja Team Gatchaman. The centerpiece is her in mid-jump, whipping a ribbon at the viewer. On the right is a picture of her crying. On the left is her, in helmet, looking determined. It's done up like a watercolor painting. It's from the Pioneer laserdisc scans.

Honestly, if bluesky doesn't manage to unfuck itself, I dunno. I have a pillowfort.social account and their people seem fairly serious about keeping NSFW material on their site. They ban AI images, too. Maybe I'll gently guide people towards that as a bluesky alternative.
Hi all, we want to address some concerns that have come up in our community as a result of recent events surrounding NSFW content, payment processors, and age verification. It's clear a lot is changing recently concerning access to adult content on the web. First, regarding the removal/delisting of "adult content" by Steam and itch.io recently: we do not expect that Pillowfort will be affected by this. For one thing, we do not sell access to adult content, so the rules that have caused Steam & itch to make these decisions don't apply for us as we are not selling games or other content. However, even without selling adult content, simply having adult content on one's site can create issues with payment processors who don't allow clients to even host that kind of content. You don't have to worry about this regarding Pillowfort, because we have already dealt with that issue. Early PF adoptees may remember that we used to accept payments through PayPal, but Paypal closed our account without warning years ago simply because we allow our users to upload adult content. As such, we have to use a payment processor that specifically handles "high risk" clients such as adult content-related businesses. This comes with much higher processing fees than "regular" payment processors to compensate for the "risk," which adds to our financial challenges. The benefit is though, that unless something drastically changes, we should be safe from payment processor censorship. However, if you are mad about these recent developments, we greatly encourage you to let Visa/Mastercard know! It would be a huge game changer for us if services like PayPal and Stripe could be pressured into relaxing their content restrictions for their clients. Secondly, we have been asked about the recent legislation enacted in the UK that requires sites that host adult content to require age verification, even those hosted outside the UK. This is a hairier issue since the guidelines are very loosely-defined in places, and frankly we do not yet know how this will affect us, but we are reaching out to sources that can help us navigate this. We hate the idea of forcing our UK users to submit to privacy-violating age verification, but we cannot deny that it may simply be necessary for us to implement it to avoid fines and litigation. We will let you all know if any changes will be coming as we explore our options. Thank you all for your concern and for supporting Pillowfort through all this. It's a turbulent time on the web, and a reminder of why it is necessary for independent spaces to exist that protect the creative freedom of their users. Best, Staff

Belatedly, @alzandah.bsky.social did this fantastic commission of one of my OCs, Tryse, for me very recently and I haven't bragged about it here yet.
An image of a witch with inky/watercolor stylings, either mid-leap or mid-fall. The primary colors are black, blue, and purple.

if you see this, quote with a robot that isn't from STAR WARS, STAR TREK, DR WHO, or TRANSFORMERS.

Unrelated to any happenings today:
Two panels from a comic. The first one, a man, Chief Judge Cal (short for Caligula, very subtle), mad ruler of Mega-City One, waves and says "Thank you. Thank you. You're too kind." The second one, he whispers to another judge, "Remind me to have a check-up after this, Slocum. I know there must be HUGE CROWDS but my eyes can't seem to Focus on them." A compic book panel. Two men are in a parade going through empty streets. A Judge says "I'm afraid there AREN'T any crowds, Chief Judge. Th-the streets are DESERTED!" Chief Judge Cal screams "They're WHAAAT!"

C-tier is full of fruits I've had, but don't actually remember very well, or ones I just kinda like. And also bananas, which I DO like, but apparently I'm slightly allergic to? They make my throat itch.

It's a tier listing of fruit.

Why are gold dragons the favorite of all trans adventurers?

Again, surprising no one who knows me, I'm very fond of the old Iron Manual, that 90s 'journal' of Tony Stark's where he talks about his process of making suits. But somehow I'm not as fond when Star Wars does it.

Used to love the Visual Dictionaries as a kid, not so much anymore. Dunno why.

You’ve been kidnapped. The characters from the last show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who is coming to save you?

I think I'll be fine. Probably get *way* more involved than I really planned, but I'll be fine.
Two Men, staring at the camera. On the left, Illya Kuryakin. On the right, Napoleon Solo. Either one can call himself The Man from U.N.C.L.E.

Me: I'm not a huge fan of overly silly anachronistic stuff in my fantasy RPGs. At some point you're doing less fantasy and more just modern stuff with a fantasy aesthetic.
Also me: One of my favorite D&D items is this thing -
From The Book of Wondrous Inventions, Ardraken's Refreshment Simulacrum. It's a magic soda machine that sometimes attacks buyers.
