my essay on The Evil Within, sex, and violence makes an appearance in this week's roundup, alongside incredible pieces by talented writers that you should also read

I socialised and I think even remote hang outs can be good for the brain brr.

species that give good hugs

Oh no, that is so awful. Sending thots and prayers in this trying time, I can only imagine how rough it must be on the couch, playing some BF and being forced to get rid of that candy like that. I'm so sorry. 🫂

Oh it legit works with so many things, even a simple cheese toasty/grilled cheese made with it is fucking delightful.

Funnily enough I made some jalapeno sour dough to have with it, we love a good baker.

I don't often brag about my cooking, it's against my nature but I do make a fucking good chilli.

So in an attempt to pull my brain from the well of despair I made a cauldron of chilli today, all fresh ingredients and slow cooked throughout the day and good gravy was it delicious and I have enough for the entire next week and some more.

there are two kinds of gays on halloween and unfortunately I am both of them

Arc Raiders

Of all the breakout hit games this year - most of them indies - how many were made using AI?

Fucking none?

I'm genuinely disheartened seeing people in the industry hyping up a game that uses ai to replace artists this last week, while countless jobs are being culled under the weight of capitalism in their own industry and they celebrate a game using ai, it just feels ghoulish.

With regards to other people in the industry fawning over it yes, because it tells me they're ok with AI replacing artists when it suits them and that is a big let down.

I will say, it has made unfollowing people nice and easy when I see someone wanking off over arc raiders.

do you die each time you go through a transporter

Proud of you, my most recent back pain was caused by a sneeze while lying down. It's a wild ride as the meat suit starts to fail as we age.

The Hunger A horror

For Halloween I've published Part I of a new two-part horror story unlike anything I've ever put online before. It's violent, gross and sexually explicit about organ meats, among other things.

Read at your own risk, or don't!

Of course there are a whole bunch of fireworks displays going on tonight, I'm sure they're entirely necessary. I'd like to turn humans off at the wall for a while now please.

Ok I'm done ranting, but I'm still very disappointed in a lot of people I wrongfully assumed would be anti ai when it came to replacing artists. Anyway, let's have a cuppa and touch some grass, or watch Twin Peaks.

I see so many people rallying against ai but you can't pick and choose your anti artistic theft/replacement battler because title X gives you brain go brrr tingles.

I've been genuinely disheartened by the worryingly high number of industry people I've seen excited about a game that openly uses ai to substitute artists. If this is what y'all are about then no wonder the industry is collapsing under the weight of capitalism. Ghouls.

Please watch this, I was so nervous planning my this that we weren’t going to get anything and the trip would be a waste BUT BOY WERE THOSE FEARS UNFOUNDED, we go so much stuff that we had to leave EARLY… and then we investigated our studio after 👀

We just hit 50,000 wishlists on Steam and over 30,000 demo downloads! 🐗💚

Our cozy game began with hikes in the Cevennes and a rescued baby boar. And we are so happy that so many of you are supporting us!

Spent the afternoon with my ex gaming husband inside me and it was delightful. He's still terrible at communication or basic spatial awareness but we chuckled a lot.

Happy Halloween! 🎃

To celebrate this scary day and from recently finishing silent hill f, here’s some artwork I was inspired to create. ♥️

It could be the opioids in my system or the general mental disconnect but I have really enjoyed seeing everyone's ween costume posts today, we need more whimsy and joy in this timeline when we can muster it.

Gather round and listen to our spooky silly sketch show special!

Sorry I should have been more specific, I'm dressing up as slutty "railed in a sundress".

Excuse my error.
