A pixel art drawing. On the left, a person with brown hair, and a yellow top is reaching out with their left arm. Their hand is placed upon a pentagram engraved in a boulder, which has moss and flowers growing off of it. In the background, the night sky, and distant clouds can be seen.

Itโ€™s important to remember that this is not going to be fixed in 24 hours. We might have to do activist work on this for a hot minute. But, if we all stay focused and support each other, we can keep this going for a really long time. Longer than any of these companies have the patience for.

1000 people calling one company, each taking up 5 minutes of their time, would occupy 10 customer support staff for a full 8 hours

you could do this every day in the time it takes to brush your teeth, and contribute to fully locking up a support team

If you want to actually solve the problem, instead of punishing itch, start calling payment cos

Collective Shout, which is run by people who get published by Spinifex, a very terf-seeming organization, apparently needed 1,000 people to yell at visa to get this done.

We got more than 1000 people.

Mastercard: Sex Work is Work. End Your Unjust Policy. Mastercard's new policy unfairly targets the adult content industry, making sex workers more vulnerable, especially Black trans women. It must be stopped.

Idk how long it will take, but there's only 2-3 chapters I want to rewrite (the first three chapters you'll have access to) Also like, maybe a few more new cgs to draw too.

Everyone who's into fighting games should go wishlist, get the demo, and/or buy the game on itch.

I've finally beaten arcade mode yesterday (for all my love of the genre, I'm not actually very good at it), and it was a lot of fun! Great graphics, gameplay, and really cool characters.

It's such a surreal feeling being like essentially done with the story mode (unless I change things while testing) after working for so long on it, like I happy cried a little last night when I finished it
