Happy women Wednesday. Check in on the dolls in your life. Buy them an expensive coffee. Give them that hand me down you keep meaning to give them.

Thank you to everyone who has picked up a copy of the paid rules of HYBAGG. I was hoping to get about $1k of sales from the itch funding and purchases right before/after July and we basically got there. This means I can spend more time developing the game, which rules! notwriting.itch.io/hybagg
thank you., a game of gratitude, is another way you can support me. you pay for the game, you win the game. your purchase also includes a PNG of the "thank you." logo with transparent background, licensed cc by 4.0, so you can use it in your projects. jnbutlerart.itch.io/thank-you

Figuring out you're trans is like being stuck on a puzzle in a video game. You overthought it you dumb bitch.
Guys will listen to male influencer bullshit about needing to have a six pack and manipulate everyone and meanwhile women will go “you know who is the sexiest fucking guy I’ve ever seen?” and post this
Idk man I think a worker owned collective of journalists who aren't afraid to report complicated situations of harm in our industry is really good and I'd like to see it continue and hopefully one day expand. I'd love for said journalists to be able to earn a livable wage while doing it too. 💙

We need Rascal in this space. Think of all the bad actors, the shitty goings on, that would never have been called out without independent journalism. But that costs and that's where we come in. Unlike some other sites they can't take a sponsor because of potential bias. WE have to be their sponsor.

I'd participate in the "Without downloading new pics what's it like dating you" meme but uh... Not ready to show those sorts of pics online yet. 🔥🥵
*Looking up at the sky as it rains during Pride weekend* I know you're trying to help with the heat but I just wanted to bring you in to let you know you're actually being homophobic right now.
Too tired to be gay today I had a full day of being gay yesterday and have another full day of being gay tomorrow.
Getting Too Excited About Projects And Forgetting To Eat: the december story Anyway looking forward to spending less money on Magic The Gathering and way more time on making proxies.
The fiction we were told about the real world feels so porous now that when you see other people replicate it like this, it’s a shock.
Hendrik is writing an ashcan about nuns@napel.itch.io · 4d agoWe shouldn't be too down on a game like Dungeons & Kittens winning an Ennie even though it lacks imagination or innovation. We should be down on it because the game re-introduce the civilized-savage dichotomy into a setting about talking adventure cats on the first page of its introduction.
![Humans have disappeared from the planet, leaving only a few remains dotted throughout the newly lush vegitation. [...] However, humans did leave something for animals: the gifts of speech and imagination, the ability to anticipate and predict, the power to invent. But not all creatures accepted those gifts. There are animals who speak, walk, and use objects and tools; and there are beasts, who remain speechless and fierce, and kept their original nature.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:uer5fkbpt7o4ht5lyp7uwk57/bafkreidxv67ry5izssk4gqwt2znuwidplmqcvd72xs5uvb2t2kcahe6pqu)
