@melonkind.bsky.social OUR BOIS!!!!!

The solution right now is not saying “move to Mastodon, to Pillowfort, use Picarto galleries” etc, bc that won't stop this silent escalation of censorship and sexual repression on the internet. The issue is not which platform we choose, but rather raising our voices against what is happening.

I love my Seikret and my Palico.

To me, half of the fun of TTRPGs is the *creating*! I don’t want some AI slop, I want stuff made by people who care and enjoy what they’re doing

I’ll definitely keep writing music for my D&D campaign, fellow players’ characters and of course for free use for anyone running a TTRPG

Because it’s fun

if you're queer, get involved in the queer scene outside the internet pls... go support nightlife if you're able, patronize their businesses and their art, contribute to community aid, and do not dehumanize drug addicts whether they're in recovery or not

From Patreon's Discord: "Yesterday, a U.S. court ruled in the Epic v. Apple case that Apple is no longer allowed to collect fees on purchases made outside of the App Store. This is a huge victory for creators and fans. The Patreon iOS app is the number one platform for fan engagement on Patreon, and we believe this ruling allows creators to get paid without Apple taking 30% of all in-app payments. We know many creators may have questions about how this ruling will impact your Patreon communities and how you use the Patreon iOS app. We’ve been working urgently to understand what this ruling means and how to take action to ensure that you and your fans benefit as much as possible. Here’s the latest:"

"We’re already working to update the Patreon iOS app to avoid Apple’s fees As a first step, we are submitting an update to the Patreon iOS app in Apple’s App Store immediately to include an option for fans to use an alternative payment method to Apple’s in-app purchasing system. Once approved by Apple, this update would mean that new members in the U.S. who make purchases in the Patreon iOS app will be able to choose a checkout option that does not include Apple’s 30% fee. Note: This pending app update, once approved and released in Apple’s App Store, will provide alternative checkout options for U.S.-based fans signing up for new memberships. At this time, this only applies for creators on subscription billing as legacy first-of-the-month and per-creation billing models are still unable to accept new membership sign ups in iOS."

"The November 2025 subscription billing transition deadline is now on hold This is still a developing situation, but we are moving forward under the assumption that the November 2025 deadline for all Patreon creators to switch to subscription billing is no longer necessary. While additional information may come that alters Apple’s requirements for Patreon’s iOS app, we are optimistic that this ruling will give us additional flexibility in how we support creators on legacy billing models. However, for now, creators still need to be on subscription billing to be able to accept payments through the Patreon iOS app. For those who still want to proceed with switching to subscription billing, our team is happy to assist with the transition, since it still unlocks access to the latest growth tools on Patreon, like gifting, Autopilot and tier repricing. For creators on per-creation billing who are actively working with our support team to transition to subscription billing, our team will be in contact with you by the end of the day tomorrow, May 2nd, with next steps to confirm how you’d like to proceed."

"Where we go from here When we first announced rolling out Apple’s in-app purchasing requirements last year, we shared that we used three principles to guide our decision in how we planned to move forward: transparency, control, and stability. In keeping with these principles, we’ll continue actively working to learn more, and we will communicate frequently and transparently as we go. This ruling is a huge moment for creators and fans, and we will continue fighting for a future where creators are in control, communities thrive, and professional creativity is possible for all. "

Huge news on Patreon! Because of the Apple v. Epic ruling, they are not only dropping the 30% Apple Store charge on the iOS app, they are also halting the move to subscription billing for all creators - which would have affected creators like me, who use a "per video" structure than monthly.

A Mech Token Publicity image. at the top in transparent letters over a blocky white background reads ">CUSTOM:TOKENS PROJECT". The bottom, with some blue flourishes, is the logo of IPS-N, one of the Mech Foundries of LANCER TTRPG. Next to the logo reads: "IPS-N RALEIGH" in differeing sizes. The mech represented is a orange-reddish mech that vaguely looks like a cowboy, it lays its arm on the back end of its upside-down hammer. on the opposite hand is a large revolver. both weapons and the bottom part of the mech are cut off by the image. The background is a metallic sheet texture at an angle, blurry and grey. there is a very unsaturated, nearly grey, orange overlay that comes to a point behind the title at the top.

Starting off with the original blue print for this project:

A picture featuring three Lancaster Mechs from LANCER TTRPGs, the text on it asks the viewer which is their favourite with the chance of four different token broders, one classic Lancer red, one red with a dark gradient, one blue with a dark gradient and a borderless option.

Another question I had was regarding the monetization of this project. As it would take me a long time to draw the 30+ LANCER Mechs/NPCs, I'd be looking to have a part or all of this project be premium. What would you be willing to pay for access to a full/foundry token pack? any feedback welcome!

IT IS HERE! For those of you interested in following this project, it now has it's own custom feed on my bsky!

More images and extras coming out soon-ish about this but I can tell I am currently working on the Tortuga token and I am excited to share it soon!
