In Demon King's Gardener, there's a board game called Ascension based on the way the first demon king of the United Demon Realm gained the Blessing of Ascension from the demon god of kings, Maenscul. It's a strategy game the MC plays with his bestie almost every day while they talk over their days.

Primordia by Wormwood Studios is 70% off in the Steam Autumn sale!

Life has ceased. Man is but a myth. And now, even the machines have begun to fail. Primordia is a fascinating journey through a crumbling world populated by robots.

▶ store.steampowered.com/app/227000/P...

I don’t mean to sound extreme, but I don’t think we should have torture camps for people with criminal records either.

I had so much fun playing Primordia, excited to look into more of these!

But if you want post-apocolyptic robot societies on the brink of collapse, Primordia might be the game for you!

So uh. Weird request.

Just realized today that I deleted all my old fanfics by accidentally overwriting a folder. It's been months, so there's really no way to recover them.

If anyone out there has any saved fanfics by sbdrag, I'd really appreciate if you could send them to me. 🥲

Thank you!

If we can only have art from people who "aren't in it for the money" that means we can only have art from privileged middle-class dilettantes. Making art being a viable career is responsible for nearly all worthwhile art, and if it's not a viable career any more we will get drastically less of it.

I had to write about Horses for @aftermath.site aftermath.site/horses-indie...

I just hit 30k in my trans monster romance 'A Damning Desire'. I am so close to this story becoming a novel (the length requirement is 40k).

I am not even done! I am in the middle of the 2nd act!

CITY OF STRIFE got a review on Tor Dot Com during Pride 2018, at which time it was conveniently on sale, and it skyrocketed my sales. It was also the month BAKER THIEF released, and I went from 1-5 sales per month to 1 per day for years.

I’m snarling and biting the bars of my cage! I love these SO much! I can’t wait until they get here! Look at these phenomenal Kieran hoofsies! Perfect for grabbing snacks and bugs.

Oh before I opened it I thought it was a haotzin. I hope you are also aware of haotzin - their babies have claws on their wings at the joint. Another very cool birb!

Fantastic thread. You can read literally all my books through a combination of...

✨Kobo Plus and Kindle Unlimited
✨Hoopla via your library (free!)
✨Steep sales I advertise here and on my newsletter
✨ARC requests for new releases (free!)
✨Short stories published in various places (usually free!)

Love how I shared the more mild discomfort reaction like my other aspec character doesn't have a full blown panic attack when his betrothed (of convenience) confesses and he realizes he's really falling for his love interest 🙃

Negative reactions to first-time love are cool

A little red dragon (Ember, from the book "The Bakery Dragon" by Devin Elle Kurtz) is seen from above in this digital painting. He is sitting on cobblestones, which are wet with puddles after a rainstorm. He gazes up at the much larger dragons in the sky above him. They have dropped some gold coins they carry.

Big Dreams

Assisted Dying as Canada & parts of Europe practice it is eugenics, they push disabled people into a corner by never offering the support folks need to have dignity into their lives & say but death's right here!

I think some of you forget that part of being sex positive and normalizing sex also includes normalizing not being into sex or being horny all the time

Throw in being autistic and needing 3-5 business days to realize what Emotions you're having doesn’t help him, either...

Not exactly dislike, but when my aroace-spec character starts experiencing attraction to his eventual partner, he at first thinks he's coming down with an illness because yeah. The cognitive dissonance is one thing, but the physical aspects of attraction are also kind of unpleasant 😅

For graphic novels, especially adult genre fiction, it's incredibly helpful to review it online, talk about it, recommend it to a friend—adult fiction in the graphic novel space is difficult to place, and nothing convinces readers that they'll like a book more than the personal testimonial.

All seeing, all knowing- 2025

They're not the pronouns I use but as an enby that wants to be viewed as more of a what than a who, the "dehumanization" is kind of the vibe/appeal. Like, forget gender, I want to be an ethereal, benign cryptid that wanders the bog and doesn't have to pay taxes.
