Neurotic cat lady and mom wench who makes dumb #KOF doodles, writes dumb KOF stories ( #illyverse ), sucks at viddy games, and swears too damn much. Occasional mildly spicy art. NO AI or NFTs! #AlwaysCreditTheArtist Pfp by @martinag.bsky.social
While the SCREEN Act failed in the committee, KOSA did move forward. Contact your senators immediately demanding it be opposed, and keep the pressure up until it comes to a vote in the Senate
The Senate Commerce Committee just passed KOSA out of committee with zero debate & failed to move the SCREEN Act. punchbowl.news/article/tech...
SCREEN Act, which would have required mandatory age-verification for sites (like this) that allow "material harmful to minors" failed to pass out of committee after thousands and thousands of people called their Senators. More work ahead!
The SCREEN Act just failed to pass in the Senate Commerce Committee! ๐ Enormous thanks to the thousands (!!) of you who told your Senators to vote no! Your voice matters and you should feel good that you made a difference. Obviously, the fight isn't over, but this was an important victory.

The way I write conversations, particularly between King and Mary, is either incredibly realistic or just outright demented. There's no in between and it might need to be studied some day. Or I might just need to be on ADD meds, who knows.
King right after her defeat in AOF, wearing a Southtown PD sweatshirt that she got from Mary. It goes along with a story I wrote ages ago. #KOF #KingofFighters #ArtofFighting #King #Fanart #AlwaysCreditTheArtist
Tomorrow marks exactly eight weeks since I broke my foot and it still hurts like hell. I wanna talk to the manager.
New pinned (2/2): I always forget to feature my writing, which can be found over at archiveofourown.org/users/illyri..., because I have the memory of a baked potato. Other stuff you'll find here: cats, unhinged musings about Resident Evil, Final Fantasy, and my family's dopey dog. Cheers!
If SCREEN were to pass, you'd be required to scan your face and upload an ID to access this site because it allows "harmful" material. This affects you even if you don't care about sex work or porn.
Mike Lee's SCREEN Act, which heads to Senate Commerce Committee for markup on Wednesday, would expand age verification requirements to a nearly limitless scope of websites, and is supported by the architects of Project 2025.
New pinned (1/2): Hi, I'm Lex: a neurotic writer and artist with a bad case of brainrot centered around KOF's King and Blue Mary. I'm also the captain of the KingxVanessa rarepair ship. I'm happily married, into nerd shit, and swear a lot. Ask me stuff at thelexhex.straw.page and enjoy your stay!
Salute to bush. The coochie kind, not the president
Me when I get legit reader comments on stories, as opposed to some weird, automated bot bullshit
Who remembers the Barbie mugshot meme from the Bad Place? Anyway, here we have pissed off King, who has done this song and dance before, and a jovial Mary greeting old coworkers. See if you can find the Easter egg(s) ๐ #KOF #KingofFighters #King #BlueMary #Fanart #AlwaysCreditTheArtist
Hey, devs? I don't know who needs to hear this, but if you're making a single player game? Start/Esc should ALWAYS, and IMMEDIATELY pause the game. I don't gaf how "epic" you think your camera is I just spilled something. My cat just puked. The dog got out. My kid fell. Fuck you, PAUSE THE GAME
A couple of random Strawpage asks came in so without further ado: That's very nice of you to say! As for advice... everyone is different, so the only thing I can really say with certainty is just... don't be an asshole.
Saw this at the Bad Place. Have at it, but just know that anything less than six months old probably won't get a redraw.
King with her mind blown after Vanessa did that thing she does with her -- never mind ๐คฃ๐ Van, meanwhile, is proud of her... handiwork. *Based on an image from The Bad Place that I'll put in the replies. #KOF #KingofFighters #King #Vanessa #KingxVan #AlwaysCreditTheArtist

Got rejected for every single other job I had applied to. Iโm officially out of choices for the time being. Obviously, if anyone has any leads for remote and/or creative work they are incredibly welcome, but mostly would appreciate Iโm not ok. But I will be.
So incredibly stoked to be able to share this new tale, which is a collaboration with a good friend that takes place during the KOF XV tournament! Presenting: Haymaker #KOF #KingofFighters #writing #illyverse archiveofourown.org/works/89045751
I haven't heard of this, no. I'll have to make a note to check it out sometime when things calm down a bit ๐
I'm being forced to take a day off (yes, I've been trying to be productive in too many ways even with a broken foot) but I'm not even sure of what to do with myself at present. More art? Work on this thing I started before all the things went haywire? Read or play something? I'm paralyzed by choice.
This will be the US if the SCREEN Act passes. Call your Senators before August 5 and tell them that you oppose the SCREEN Act, KOSA, and the KIDS Act. Use the official lookup tool at www.senate.gov/senators/sen... to find yours by state.
