Yep, that's it! The League of Legends fanbase has a really bad reputation 😶

The show, on the other hand, is an absolute masterpiece - every frame is art, so many nuances and details scattered thru the show that I'm STILL finding new things every time I watch. Soundtrack is 🔥🔥🔥.

Arcane!!! I was initially hesitant bc I'm not a LoL player (and ofc I hear about the toxic fan base of LoL), but DAMN was I blown away by this show!

I was planning on buying a proper mic for voice acting (looking at used AT2020 mics), but my grandma visited, proceeded to be a nightmare of a houseguest for THREE WEEKS, & wiped out all of my savings for business 😭

...So yeah, I'm fundraising for VA stuff! Also, if anyone has an old AT2020/etc...

Abdirak from Baldur's Gate 3

Kar'niss from Baldur's Gate 3

WTF DO YOU MEAN THERES NO ABDIRAK OR KAR'NISS ASMR/ROLEPLAY VIDEOS ON YOUTUBE?!?

I am appalled and have the BIG SAD, but also heyyy I guess there's a need I can fill!

My current microphone is, sadly, not great for picking up the low end of my voice (or too much flair, which Kar'niss uses A LOT).

And if you're an artist who's work is not NSFW/not currently being threatened?

Step. The. Fuck. Up.

Speak up and speak out for folks who create in ways you don't. Add your voices to theirs and lend stability with your solid footing.

We must protect agency and creative freedom in all forms.

Forgot to post photos of my drag'd up Brika Brak from this year's RESCU Rally!

Aww, I'm glad you feel lighter! I mean, of course I miss seeing so much of your content on there (a MASSIVE amount of my saved posts are you), but it's so nice that you don't have that stress!

I miss doing that content, but I have NO social life IRL (too rural). Working on getting back to creating!

Oh yeah, and since it's trans day of visibility...

We got 6 pages full of deadnames this year - 3 times what we got in 2024.

To those who were scared to approach while with family - I saw you. Hang in there. Things will eventually get better. 🫂🩵🩷🤍

Oh. My. Gods. I freaking LOVE what you did with the back of that shirt!!!

AN OSTENTATION OMFG 🤣

...I'm finally getting my Astarion cosplay together for renfaire this year (yay! I finally get to go to renfaire again after 20 years!), and TBH I'm hoping I see another Astarion there so we can do the Spider-Man meme lmaooo

My voice coach also helped me learn a technique when I had an asthma attack during our first meeting, bc apparently a lot of my breathing issues are anxiety/panic related. She guided me through a breathing exercise and that's helped so much that I hardly use my inhaler anymore, which is new for me

Then if the digital art therapy isn't helping, I'll try using one of my fountain pens to just... Doodle, scribble, make ink blobs, whatever. I have different inks in my pens, and different nibs, and some of my pens have different textures (they're all metal-body pens). LOTS of tactile feedback!

Also, getting out my tablet and doodling in my art program (I use Krita) seems very helpful. Not trying to make art, just playing around with the brushes, the textures, colors, etc. Finding the right stylus for me helped a lot with making this more effective as well (I use the Lamy EMR stylus most)

I've found that red light therapy helps me IMMENSELY, I started using red light for some skin conditions and for pain, but realized that my anxiety/PTSD/etc all are much more manageable on days when I do the red light.

Ok, so I have a few tricks. Recently I got one of those "lil ouchie" fidget toys, that helps a lot, especially since constantly getting piercings for that pain therapy isn't that great an idea LOL

Bad Dragon is the Hobby Lobby of fantasy dongs. 🙄

I seriously love this so much! Clever, hilarious, and DAMN they just look amazing!

I finally have a consult scheduled (of course it's a long time away 😭), so naturally I'm already trying to figure out the tattoos I want there after it's healed!

"And I have just been visited by a representative of Queen Titania. She agrees that yous a bitch."

Because the fae would...

Gosh, I adore @qsy.bsky.social's art 🥰 The lines! The forms! The color palettes! The expressions! The linework! The way it evokes art styles of bygone eras, without being exact copies of those styles!

Today in "fate doesn't work right around Critical Role,"
What are the odds they'd stream their Chicago Liveshow on the same day the Chicago Pope was elected?

One is a group of strange men in funny costumes isolating people from across the world into a bizarre contest, & the other is Critical Role.

I just think it’s hilarious that people went to college with the Pope. “What’s Ken up to these days? Partner at a law firm outside Pittsburgh, that’s nice. And Bob? Oh, he’s the Pope.”

I loved my original Creature of Desire mix, but I wanted MORE!!!

...I also recently got better headphones (proper studio ones) for improved editing quality, and some of the nuances I missed when I was working with low-quality headphones are now glaringly obvious to me, LOL 😬

I may or may not have just started working on a new, better, full-length mix of "Desire" by Bob Moses & ZHU (feat. dialogue by @masonalexanderpark.bsky.social )... 👀

While you wait, here's my original "Creature of Desire" mix! ♥️

Ahhh, I do love the sound of rain on a metal roof. I'd never had that before moving to Oregon, and every roof I've lived under our here has had a metal roof (at least partially). One of the most relaxing sounds ever.

This awful trope spills over into fetishizing the dignity and pride of the oppressed, expecting them to either accept or protest their position in the same way - quietly, with deference to decorum and civility. It's all status-quo entrenching nonsense.

Nobody implies that a CEO hiring a tax lawyer to ensure he pays as little of possible of his rightful taxes has compromised his dignity. That's "smart"

The best trick the rich ever pulled was making poor people feel personally ashamed for a system that put them exactly where it intended to put them

Elon Musk has received at least $38 BILLION dollars in government loans, subsidies, tax credits and government contracts and it’s a huge reason why he’s the richest man in the world.

So badass!!! 😍
