I know I’ve been absent but if you don’t mind that I still have a little bit of a cough I’d like to maybe do a cheeky stream on Saturday. I have two big announcements of things coming up next week (!!) and then we can stress test to make sure everything still works.

It’s #NationalComingOutDay so I want to say I see you, even if you can’t be fully out to everyone right now.

New logo for the stream team cosmic hearts. The graphic has a colorful stylized pixelated style in purples, pinks, and yellows. A pink heart shows in the middle with a yellow ring around it similar to a planets' ring. Text reads cosmic hearts

Oh hi Bluesky!

My button is already proudly being displayed on my jacket and will be shown off all day when I return to the con tomorrow.

I was all set to do Steam Next Fest demos next week but guess who caught themselves a nasty virus... I'm powering through 2 days of NYCC then taking it easy and hoping I can get over this thing quickly. Why do I always get sick *before* the cons 😩

Digital illustration of a crow combined with the art prompt “cemetery.” The body is a stone urn topped with a crow head partially covered with a cloth. The outstretched wings and tail are made from ornate iron fencing.

Kept it quick and easy today with help from the symmetry tool, but I’d love to revisit this concept!

I finally convinced Kaiser to grant me an MRI after weeks of frustrating doc visits and unrelenting back pain. It's this Friday and it's gonna cost me $500. I have $384 until I get paid on the 17th. If you are able to chip in a little, that'd be cool.

I really wanna get back into this one soon. We're doing a Hades warmup stream then a Halloween special then we'll pick this one back up.

If you enjoyed watching me play the demo of this, the full game is now available to buy on Steam

My solo writer debut, Lock and Key, is now available. This story is something deeply personal, and it has been the greatest honor of my life to see that story fully realized by an unbelievably talented team. All I have to give is here in this game. Please enjoy. Thank you!

It can be incredibly hard to see your progress when recovering from depression or burnout. The whole world keeps demanding certain benchmarks of you to the point that it’s easy to feel like a failure despite your hard work. Remember your progress is your own journey. Every win means something.

I have on more than one occasion told SkaBeast I feel like I hold him back and then apologize that I keep making him reassure me, so I’m probably being doubly annoying

I’ve been having to remind myself of this a lot lately. Having chronic pain sometimes you feel like a burden.

Your brain is being mean to you. You’re not a burden.
You’re allowed to ask for help sometimes
It’s ok to not be ok

That’s so scary! Glad it wasn’t worse.

You’re doing amazing sweetie! 💜

Good morning bsky and happy Campaign 4 opening day to all my fellow critters out there!

Update: news at 11! No stream Friday but I did just plot out the next two weeks when I can maybe stream, and unless I'm super not feeling it I'm really gonna give it a go for reals this time. I need to make sure I'm properly back from hiatus before the Rainbow Relay!

I did! It was lovely hanging out today.

It’s ok, I cried too and I wasn’t even the one playing 😆

No promises but if I feel up to it after work Friday I’ll jump on for a makeup stream. We can catchup and get a Hades run in. Should be around 6pm ET.

I did the dishes and folded my laundry and then Ellie went live and I decided I deserve some Silksong time after all the adulting. We'll get back to streaming here one of these days 😅

Stream now might be closer to 4pm ET & might just be catch up on what’s been going on & what we have to look forward to & then we’ll see. Idk how long I can go & the later the start time the less time I have. It almost doesn’t feel worth it but if my body is behaving I wanna take advantage of that.

I did a bit of a sleep in but I'm still down for a co-working stream later today at around 3:30pm ET. You can help me make sure nothing broke while I was gone while listening to some chill beats. Plus I have updates for you of things both past and future. Hope to see you later!

Oops the day got away from me and I never got a chance to tell you I'm going to try to do a cheeky co-working stream tomorrow afternoon. I have finally hit the point I absolutely have to start working on DA Day if I want to have everything sorted in time for the event. See you around maybe?

So it turns out scrolling on bsky or discord for too long is a migraine trigger. Guess I'm going to have to continue not being online much. Take care of yourselves while I'm gone. Don't forget to hydrate and take your meds.

When insurance okayed mine I made the snarkiest comment at the email but it never occurred to me it would get denied and I think I would have gone postal on them. I’m sorry.

I've made a couple posts on here this month but otherwise have done zero scrolling because life has been too overwhelming to be online. But I just dipped my toe in & it's nice to see what everyone is up to. Leave a little comment with 1 thing you've been excited about recently. I miss my community.

Saudi Arabia & Other Investors Nearing $50 Billion Deal To Buy EA The massive deal might be announced officially as soon as next week according to sources with knowledge of the situation

Buyers: So your games... guns and football, yes?

EA: Mmhmm, mmhmm, mostly guns and football, yep.

Buyers: No gay stuff? No politics we're not going to like?

EA: Haha, definitely not! Hey, could you give me one sec? I just need to shut down a studio real quick.

Sery told me to appreciate the little things today so here it goes - earlier today I had a nice little moment snuggling with my guy on the couch while catching up on @elliejoypanic.bsky.social Silksong shenanigans. It was a good afternoon.
