A new developer podcast is up today with @museofpvd.bsky.social from @triplecastgames.bsky.social to discuss making the TTRPG the Hidden Keys youtu.be/KHP3DDygPgE and the second half will be focusing on horror design and writing. #indiegamedev

Caustic goes New Jack Swing? YEAH BOY!!!!

New track, feat an gorgeous intro from my pal @museofpvd.bsky.social !

NOT GOING ANYWHERE, up NOW on streamin'!

I'ma be real. The thing that worries me the most about releasing my first original IP in #TTRPGs is seeing the way some folks (including ppl on here) talk about them. Mainly, the levying of sometimes brutal criticism with zero suggestion of what could have been done better. 1/

I'm pretty sure she's accepting wedding gifts alongside belated birthday ones now #wedding #nextweek #5days

Unexpected costs have put some dampeners on the last of my wedding prep, please have a look over my art print shop and if you like any of the prints, place an order! It would really help me out!

Character art commissions are open too

This week has been very busy, but I did manage a small idea.

My character commissions are open and a selection of etching prints are on my big cartel, both are found in my linktree in bio!

An image of a huge jackboot crushing a comic artist and a bunch of comic pages. The boot is marked by the logos for MasterCard, Visa, Paypal, and Stripe. Below the image there is text which reads: Don't let Payment Processors tell YOU what you can buy! It is not a payment processor's role to decide what kind of content you can or cannot spend money on, so long as it is a legal transaction. Fight back against the unjust policies hurting artists and creators online! https://yellat.money/ https://stop-paypros.neocities.org/

Let's Keep Calling!

Anthropomorphic dip-pen and inkwell stand infront of a table stacked with books. Pen holds a sign with '18+' drawn on the center, with a heart around it. Inkwell is holding a paper colored rainbow with 'LGBTQA' upon it. Inkwell is holding a hand up in a 'stop' motion. Behind the table is the vague sense of a crowd also holding signs. Above image it reads: "CARTOONISTS Against Adult Content CENSORSHIP"

The Cartoonist Co-op stands against the censorship and pay discrimination of 18+, erotic, and NSFW artists.

A PayPal call center supervisor said they actually completely agree with me. They said that if enough people call PayPal they would be forced to take notice. I explained the Patreon/Itch/Steam situation and they said they're a creative themselves & that they hope the situation improves.

CALL THEM

how I feel since 2016 or so

Glad to announce my prints that were recently purchased from my shop have made it safe and sound and already have frames! Thank you for your support!

We have done this experiment one billion times and it has worked great all one billion times.

And here is the other sketch I decided to ink yesterday!

My character commissions are open and a selection of etching prints are on my big cartel, both are found in my linktree in bio!

I think its cool that people are talking about alternatives to itch (having more options is never bad), but i think the important aspect for would be alternatives is to figure out how to avoid or be resistant to the payment processors systematically - it cant just be "taking a stand"...

If 1000 calls is all it took to get the ball rolling shouldn't we kick up an absolute shit storm of calls in response?

Please help me replace my hard drive so I can continue to write queer and sexy stories to anger Collective Shout

So uh, my team was laid off this week (fml) and I now have a ton of time to work on this.

So, who's interested?

I feel like today is a good day to talk about this, isn't?

I cannot stress enough how literally everyone should be up in arms about this. They will not stop at this, they will not stop here

You can sign the ACLU petition here:

Sign the Petition Tell MasterCard, Visa & Activist Groups: Stop Controlling What We Can Watch, Read, or Play

They said this situation developed since April, people are only able to react to the delisting now. I can be mad that the puritanical fascists have a 4 month headstart on their pressure. We can be mad at itch for giving them a comfortable headstart.

HELLO COMRADES

Could anyone affected by Itch removing items please send any evidence they may have to myself? I am filing a report with the Australian Consumer Commission, as I have reason to believe that Itch removing access may be a violation of Australian Consumers rights!

Drop em below or DM!!

Can you spare a minute to help this campaign? Tell MasterCard, Visa & Activist Groups: Stop Controlling What We Can Watch, Read, or Play
