i created my very first visual novel for the #otomejam on itch.io! it's called NIGHTMARE GIRL and it's a story about learning to trust and letting go of the past. there are elements of horror, friendship, and (if you so choose) romance!

On the heels of the failure of big money pushes for NFTs, crypto, wearables, and the metaverse, it is absurd to hold the position of "AI is inevitable and we must learn to live with it."
It's also a craven position that suggests we shouldn't fight for what we value. We decide our own fates.

personally don't trust people who claim to love a manga series and can't name the artist/creator(s) who made it. and there are more such people than you'd think!!!

i cannot prove this by any means but that has not stopped me from becoming unreasonably convinced that arachne's voice and character design from hades 2 was modelled on kristen chenoweth

So fun story, I was laid off from my job earlier this week w/ no notice. Support for my content is really important right now. Especially on YouTube & Twitch where I'm monetized already. I've also increased my Ko-fi goal, but every little bit helps. Sharing is appreciated! 💖 ko-fi.com/blerdyotome

watched the apartment (1960) and vertigo (1958) over the weekend because they make a pretty good double feature if you don't mind the somewhat depressing thing they have in common #filmsky

art as escapism is fine but art cannot JUST be escapism, art cannot always be comforting, or make you happy, or bring you joy. sometimes art does the opposite, for a reason (or not!), and that kind of art is just as important too, if not more sometimes

wholeheartedly agree with the premise of 'make it exist first, you can make it good later' but also most of the artwork i've seen in the specific meme format that's been floating around already looks good even at the make it exist stage lol

I'm seeing less posts about the Visa and Mastercard situation and I want to make it plain as day. You need to keep calling and bothering them, and losing them money.
Because if we lose this, they are going to cut more and more from what's available until you can only buy what they approve of.

Spoke with an anon source who had an interesting insight into Visa policy. Per a convo with their bank on the Steam/itchio situation today, Visa put new restrictions into place due to a new "government policy." The exact phrase used by Visa. No specific country was listed as the source of the policy
