Gosh I wish I could create private locked accounts on here. The amount of anxious venting into the void I wanna do is strong. I'd do it on this acc but I'm absolutely terrified of being so vulnerable out in the open, especially to industry figures that I respect.

my leitmotif has been playing in a minor key for like a whole year

completely obsessed with these pictures @perky.bsky.social took during the FF summer meetup 😎🔥 (team photos to follow soon)

Stop-mo PNGtuber for @foxander.bsky.social in the style of Fantastic Mr. Fox. Foxander messaged me about the idea and it seemed so cool! He sent me drawings and screenshots for the idea I got to work, it took a bit, but I streamed most of the process and am happy with the result! #3dart #vtuber

Folks my brain isn't doing too good at all lately. Please send cheerful stuff <3

I fucking wish I could go one day without seeing something that makes me uncomfortably aware of my weight.

Also like, chubby / plus-sized folks posting nudity is SO important in queer (and furry) communities. I personally see it as a sign of protest, normalizing these body types against fatphobic norms seen in the community. We should love and celebrate our bodies instead of starving them.

One thing that has surprisingly improved my body confidence is regularly taking risque pictures of my body and sharing it with friends (consensually). Like??? I love this part of the queer community. I never thought people would find my body attractive, yet here we are.

In a first-time thing for me, I'm heading to Gamescom in August! I'm available for meetings, hangs, and catch-ups! Wanna ramble about video game trailers? I'd love to chat! Wanna take a stroll around the Chocolate Museum? I'll be there in a heartbeat!

Honestly it's taken me a while to realize that folks calling me "intense" or "too much" in general conversation is incredibly ableist. It's happened FAR too often in growing up and trying to build relationships with folks. Especially from a neurodiverse perspective. I'm so tired.

just watched shadow take a 15 second long hit and then he just held it. got up and walked right out afterward. maybe he is the ultimate life form

Reporting on the R* firings has meant multiple trips to London, Edinburgh & Glasgow over the last several months in order to be on the ground as the story developed. It's been a different style of video for us, with more frequent updates, rather than one big doc right at the end of the process.
