Paid games are tough because it's always struck me as something I wouldnt get on with in practice but on the other hand I'd like to think people would be down if I put a little bit of effort into it and money....

The mecha community needs to balkanize. I need a subgroup with the ferocious vigor of mechsploitation but for the space politics parts of Fang of the Sun Dogrum. I want 300 trans women foaming at the mouth over flowcharts and meetings in spaceship corridors and writing imaginary paperwork.

80s are nobodies favorite Bowie era but Loving the Alien is a top 5 track for me. Especially that Reality Tour version, but I love even the 80s production of the original track. Would kill to hear that legendary demo of this.

I like creating my own things but if I do it's going to be much more painterly and vague and tonal, I'd get too lonely doing the kind of worldbuilding I love reading by myself. Need a social driver, and gming big high effort games and stuff can be a weirdly solitary experience otherwise.

One day I'll make someone original and by that I mean I'll get somebody to steal me to illustrate their existing worldbuilding project. I need a person to talk too at all times with these sorta creative endeavors, creating by myself makes me feel so cut off.

Been trying to work out why I seem to enjoy working as closely as I can to a big setting book so much more than making my own thing, and this is kinda it. I like the communal hobby of a good prepublished world, even if I dont interact with it. I can add something to this thing other people also love

Developed in the last years of the Second Committee, the Everest pattern now known as the Sagarmatha experienced some of the bloodiest infighting ever witnessed in Union's history. Both SecComm loyalists and revolutionary forces fielded countless variants in fratricidal struggle.

Watching the new season of Shark Tank and they managed to immediately become a parody of itself by having one of the pitches be Ball 2, the sequel to Ball, powered by AI. To really seal the deal, the ball 2's battery is not rechargeable or designed to be replaced.

It's funny how reception changes opinion. If Digger was a success I probably wouldn't be saying this, but it's not. It's one of the biggest flops in history. What a useless fucking movie, these things aren't gonna save us. Probably the last movie of its kind. All hail Digger, death of cinema ig.

Impossible to make up my mind of this one. One of the worst movies of the decade, so I guess I have to congratulate it on that since it's the point? I was thinking of Cruise's last moviestar fanwank persona. Digger seems like nothing less than a response to that- fuck off. Skydance owns this all now

Unfunny, juvenile, the exact sort of thing you'd expect from a big budget climate satire starring Tom Cruise. If you've seen the miserable Don't Look Up you know what I'm on about. Also self hating and cynical- Digger hates itself, and Digger hates movies, and Digger hates you. Maybe watch Digger?

Okay the kiwibank sheep broke local containment but kiwibank making a reponse post where they fed the 3d asset into a generative AI model and sincerely equate joke furry porn of a mascot to AI serial sexual harassment is pretty disgusting. Who the fuck approved this. Wildly tonedeaf.

I'm too broke to go the movies regularly these days, but I miss it so I decided I could see one this week. Primetime or Digger were both showing today, and Primetime looks pretty good but it'll be really funny to say "I saw Digger in an empty cinema" in 3 years. Seeing Digger I guess.

The Panam attached good ending where your clearly intended to have romanced her and like every woman in the Witcher I will never buy that these games have like great stories or characters. Pretty to look at, fun to ride around in, abit embarrassing whenever your in a dialogue cutscene!

The entire Witcher franchise occupies this sort of nasty subgenre of the sleazy paperback fantasy vibe for me. Love that game but like the books aren't cool enough to be a Moorcock sword and sorcery take or good enough to be Martin dark fantasy, just sorta greasy and dull. Shlock but not pulp enough

Felt like drawing some nasties: the Watcher under the water, and the balrog.

Realised I never posted this Rivendell drawing I did from my Lord of the Rings phase last year.
