I just want to put this out into the universe.
If you are a homebrew developer of a GB, GBC, GBA, NES, SMS, MD/Genesis, N64, or PS1 game with a free version or a free demo of you game, I’d love to ship it with SuperStation as a physical or digital demo disk.

The UK has recognised Palestine. It must now end its complicity in its destruction, and in the genocide of its people.

Kiki's art is absolutely amazing, and Ashes to Ashley is a brilliant heart warming story about a brave and joyful bunny girl.
Anytime I see her art I usually end up thinking about it in the back of my mind later.
Inspired enough to try to make some SMS Ashley fanart. Drawing is fun!

My girlfriend, Kiki, has been ruthlessly critical of her work recently to the point of breaking down crying. I am doing my best to tell her she's a fantastic artist. Please, help me show her by sharing her ko-fi store, say something nice and consider picking up her comics.

The fundamental issue is this isn't a bug, it's a feature. There is no justice in our criminal "justice" system. It was always built for a purpose.
Yes. Speech laws have gone too far when you're not allowed to call for violence against minorities, but not when an old lady is arrested for holding up a sign calling for an end to genocide.

It is so, so important to learn to understand the difference between A Gross Thing That Freaks Me Out, versus A Thing Which Causes Actual Harm In The World
because as long as you can't navigate the difference, your disgust is a lever that can be used to manipulate you
