Thanks to the spectacular efforts of @maxwellalbritten.bsky.social, now I've got my very first main with me even when I venture out to other fighting games. Manon's looking great! Shout-out also to @yalc321.bsky.social for running this gift exchange for DB crafters!
Had my first-ever crusade match this past Sunday. Didn't pull off the win, but I only lost by 10 points despite getting tabled. #warhammer40k #crusade
Crusade group is starting a new campaign soon, likely Pariah Nexus from the looks of things, and i need help breaking the mental stalemate of who to play. The shortlist is Thousand Sons or Drukhari. #warhammer40k
I've never enjoyed fighting Dhalsim before, but this set in the ranked queue last night was the most fun I've ever had in SF6. I lost the set (hell, they Perfect'd me in the last round) but I had a blast and in the moment some stuff just fundamentally clicked in place. You're rad, random Dhalsim!

Fired up SF6 last night and on a whim gave Kimberly a real go...I really like her. I've been on Manon the last 2 years and as much as I love farming command grabs, Kimmie has felt a lot more natural, and most importantly, fun. #FGC
I rarely do projectsthat involve a lot of sewing because I find the process tedious & fiddly. But watching all the bits come together feels nearly satisfying enough to make up for it. #crochet #fiberarts
If you can, put art on your walls. It doesn’t matter what it is, just make sure whatever it is makes you looks twice, stare, smile, think…
That's...That's a lot of timbits. Good job, Desert Bus. My favorite week of the year was, as always, Wonderful. #DB2025
Look at all that fire! One Million Dollars baby! #DB2025
My silent auction has now closed. Thank you everyone who bid, and much love to duaiwe for putting in a whole $3105 for the win. I hope you enjoy your new buddies! #DB2025
We are officially live. ~8 hours and counting!
Today's the day my little video game creatures find a new home! Silent auction starts at 1pm Eastern, and after Nighwatch's...spirited Final Fantasy discussion last night, I hope some folks get excited for them.

In the midst of getting frustrated at Dayne St. Clair's antics and my team's apparent inability to not bounce PK's off the frame, I finished writing a Locked Tomb oneshot yesterday. It's now up on ao3 if anyone happens to feel like taking a look. archiveofourown.org/works/73935216
Locked in for Match 3 🫡
Wonderwall is a good song, it made for a great reoccurring gag at Desert Bus last year, but by Tzeentch I do NOT want to hear the Minnesota fans singing it 2 hours from now.
Today is a day of Soccer & hobbies for me. A couple UK matches this morning and then 3 MLS playoff match-ups later. Looking forward to getting some crochet and writing done while the action happens on the various fields.
#DesertBus2025 Donations are open and the Prize schedule has been fully revealed! And there's some really cool stuff that's up for grabs!

Its almost time...
Spent my evening playing a World of Darkness mod for Crusader Kings, wherein I played an Angel of Death-turned Lust demon and conquered half of Russia while under the domain of Baba Yaga.
Fun times. Might try playing as one of the fae rulers next.
Necessary tools from the bad old days (or: the smallest taste of why marriage equality matters.)
Craft-Along part 2 is officially finished! All thats left is to send them off and tune in to #DesertBus2025
Two weeks later and the weird green peanut now has arms, a tail, and most of a cloak! This year's craft-along is taking a bit more time than previous entries, but it's on track. #DesertBus2025
Craftalong update! With the first little dude finished, the second is now underway. Here's the current state. #DesertBus2025
I've been terrible at doing my typical updates for #DesertBus2025 craft along, but half the project is complete.
The @mlspa.bsky.social has put out this statement about the shirts players are wearing during pregame.
Acceptance email for the Craft-Along came in. We're officially on the road to @desertbus.org 2025!
Coming up on the end of The Shadow Over Cyberspace (It's amazing), and I find myself wishing we could see what would happen if @fictionfactorygames.com were given the chance to play around in the World of Darkness. Particularly with @jacobburgess.bsky.social lending his myriad talents to the effort.
It's time for a craftalong update! I may be too close to be a proper judge, but I feel like at this point it's fairly obvious what I'm making.
