Behold! The whimsy! I hate the feel of sweaty watch bands so I wanted to make something that could be washed and worn. Now I need my jewellery making tools so I can finish it with some ✨embellishment✨

Have you published on the Storyteller’s Vault?
I would love to pick your brains about the process and your experience with the platform.

Well, I found out what features are restricted for me in Australia until I “verify I’m an adult …”

Look, we know truth when we see it…

What do we do when we feel overwhelmed by everything going on? We have a meltdown, then we create, because art and whimsy in the face of adversity and global-scale cruelty is revolutionary.

the kind of wisdom one would hope to find in anxient tomes 🩸

Woohoo!!!!! 🥳

They're hoping we'll forget about this in a few months and that we'll resubscribe to Nitro so they can get back their funding for this nonsense. Cancel yours and do not forget about this.

Aaaaah. I am using an iPhone emoji that is a pink heart, so that may not translate if you’re using a different operating system.
But this is another layer to the problem. That symbol will be read out as a different code, so strips any context for the symbol.

Now imagine if you have a more complex emoji as your bullet point.
It delays getting to the point. What takes a sighted person with no cognitive difficulties a fraction of a second to assess the contextual meaning of that emoji image, will take someone using a screen reader longer to hear.

The way it causes delay is, if you’re using a screen reader, you will hear it like this:

Pink heart emoji this is a bullet point

Pink heart emoji this is another bullet point

Pink heart emoji this is a third bullet point

Not quite. I’m sure you’ve seen copy in posts like this:

🩷 this is a bullet point

🩷 this is another bullet point

🩷 this is a third bullet point

Did you know?
Using emojis as bullet points in your social media posts and emails can be an accessibility nightmare for those using screen readers?
The reader will “read out” each emoji using its description, causing massive delays to the read.
Use Unicode bullets (* or -) instead.

We can’t be the only ones who see the similarity?

Hells yeah!

Maybe see if you can find a clip in fringe for a bit?

Hells yeah!

Hey.

Tell people when they do good job.

When you like the stuff they make.

When you like the characters they’ve created.

The stories they’ve told.

Nobody hears it as often as you think bc everyone thinks everyone hears it all the time.

Trust. They don’t.

Tell. Them.

Surely it would just be easiest to have them display in alphabetical order regardless of location?

And also the Blood Potency screen

Also, you know what would be super helpful? A search in the “Pick advantages & flaws” section. Coz there’s a lot and some of us make a lot of characters and just want to get it done.

I have also noticed that in some steps of the character creation process, the explanation text box that opens up isn’t repo since to the window size. Case in point: the “disciplines description” box here doesn’t wrap to the size of the window like it doesn’t elsewhere in the creation process.

Hey @demiplane.com - just curious why the predator types in the VtM nexus aren’t in alphabetical order? Makes scanning the list really difficult.

Hey! That tshirt has a pretty great group on it too! 🤣

PSA for Discord's new age verification!

If you get hit by it and refuse to give them any ID or face scans as you should, here's a way to just... bypass it.

Go to Settings - Family Centre and then just enter a date of birth that's 18+

It's really that simple. Give them nothing.

I am thinking I will set myself the task of learning what goes into laying out a manuscript, and the process for publishing on these platforms, and then see if I think there is a feasible timeline to getting my work up to scratch. I’ll probably use provided art for my first release, but we’ll see.
