in order to network in the ttrpg scene, you must: - accept that you are not everyone's cup of tea - reinvent a mechanic from first principles - make games that drive 10-30 other designers mad - speak with the confidence of someone who thinks very long and hard about how to play pretend more good

People need to keep in mind this is the line. The reason we have such a breadth of styles and niches of adult content now is because people can make a living off of it. If we have our incomes demolished, 90%+ will have to stop and disappear. Action matters now more than it ever has before.

Gretchen Felker-Martin PRE ORDER CHIMERA 2.16.27 🍉@scumbelievable.bsky.social · last yr.

The banning of pornography always, always ends with the forced removal of queer and trans people from anything remotely resembling public life. it is an attempt to keep us impoverished, to keep us desperate, to alienate us from each other and our communities.

So you know how Steam updates their TOS to restrict "NSFW" content at the request of payment processors like Visa and Mastercard? The group behind that pressure campaign is coming after Itch.io. If you are selling books on itch, this concerns you. www.pcgamer.com/gaming-indus...

Also as an addition; sign this petition ASAP if you're someone in the UK. Rather than just sitting around and doing fuck all, we need to make it clear that this Bullshit OSA won't work. Ever. Nor do folk fucking want it. Contact your MPs about the bill too. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/72...

Starting July 25, Bluesky will require users in the UK to scan their face, upload an ID or verify their identity with a bankcard. I realize that platforms feel they have no choice but to comply with the government surveillance schemes, but shocking nonetheless.

A great video on pencils that also included some alcohol markers in the mix. Not only are markers not light fast, they are VERY not light fast.

A gentle reminder that Copic markers are not lightfast, my friends! Copic and all alcohol dye based markers are a medium meant for production work; storyboards, sketches, approvals, ideas, and things that will be reproduced - like prints! It is not meant for final, original gallery style art.
