Caught the last half or so of this on streamed on YouTube! Since I couldn't pop off in the chat in real time I wanted to offer a very enthusiastic GG here, that was incredible to watch.

Been watching the slow tweaking of SvH rules from near the beginning, and just wanted to say thank you for all your hard work! Silksong is such a different beast in so many ways, I'm sure trying to speedrun getting the ruleset relatively polished has been eventful.

Good luck! Fingers crossed for you!

Anything by Octavia Butler, but Bloodchild (a short story anthology) and the Lilith's Brood trilogy are my two favorites of hers. One of my favorite sci-fi writers.

#Animorphs fans, a reminder!

As the series turns 30 this year, the first three books are being released with beautiful new cover art by @creepcaptain.bsky.social. Out May 5! Here's a link to book one: bookshop.org/p/books/anim...

I did flipbooks for all of the Animorphs covers I did, but they appeared in black and white and very small, so I am posting them here so you can see them large and in color. No AI here--just Elastic Reality and painting. You can buy a signed print of this cover here:

To my friends from LiveJournal I still think about you Wonder if you finally quit, Do you still speak to your mom? I remember when you went to Japan How you swore you'd never forgive him. I can't remember to take my meds but I remember you wanted to live on a houseboat. It's a strange intimacy, all of us unspooling across decades of internet space Like balls of yarn leaving a trail behind us of everywhere and everyone we've ever been I hope you got your houseboat. I hope you got everything. -Hayley DeRoche

No Players Online - the full version of the viral abandoned online FPS horror game - is back on Steam. 🎉

The game was falsely removed weeks ago, just after launching, which has severely impacted the studio's survivability.

Please spread the word, and support it! ❤️

On Faith, Eternity, and Impossibility in Hollow Knight: Silksong’s Pharloom: A Symptomatic Reading - Unwinnable For those residing in the Underworks, faith only serves to ensure obedience to the system of oppression.

"For Pharloom’s past, present, and future, faith functions as an omnipresent mediator, embodied and exploited in varied ways depending on the social position of its interlocutors."

Christopher Spina examines the various facets of faith in Hollow Knight: Silksong:

I'd love a thought out balance patch, but I'm cynical that it'll happen. Unfortunate- I'm okay with and having fun with the difficulty so far, but I also recognize it is very, very much not for everyone, and it's a bummer that there are people who would otherwise enjoy the game who won't be able to.

Thank you for hitting the nail for why I'm struggling on the head. I've only played a few hours today and I am EXHAUSTED... I agree it isn't necessarily a bad design choice, but it sure is intense.

I'm having a hard time putting why into words, but this deeply moved me. Something about the mutual lack of fear, I think, despite how small she is compared to you and how very close to your fingers her stinger is, and knowing that that ham would have gone to her little siblings... very sweet.

I love Hollow Knight, played over 1,000hrs. I'm sure I will enjoy Silksong. But the general entitlement from fans, the misunderstanding of budget ≠ faster development, and the absolutely cynical nature of the conversation over the past few years has really soured me on the whole thing. 🧵

hey so maybe "the horrors" aren't like Doctor Who's Weeping Angles. Maybe they don't slow down when you look at them. Maybe the best thing for your mental health is to occasionally put the phone down. I know, "what will the horrors do while I'm not looking?" Something awful, I'm sure. But rest.

Mary Shelley doesn't get enough credit for not only anticipating the silver-spooned narcissist techbro who recklessly creates technology without thinking through the consequences, but also for knowing that said techbro would be an absolutely terrible father.
