I enjoy how the mentally unstable internet lesbians talk about Joan of Arc like she's Laura Palmer

speaking of bundles i've been following the updates about the bundle Games for Gaza, which was from last year, and the lack of response and transparency from itch.io

you can read the organizer's thread here:

tl;dr essentially itch.io has completely ghosted them since December, and MAP has NOT received the $365k that was raised. both the organizer and MAP separately reached out to itch.io with no response. apparently itch.io's payout system is notoriously bad, but itch.io has failed to do their part within the timeline they set with no updates and no communication. since Esther posted, Leaf (the founder of itch.io) has gotten directly involved, but the funds have still not been passed on to MAP.

worth stressing this is apparently not a unique circumstance and is typical of itch.io payouts.

really really disappointing behavior from itch.io. that money at this point genuinely could have saved lives. i've been posting about the other bundle that's planning to raise money for the PCRF but after this i would be wary donating through itch.io. i'm waiting to see exactly what steps Leaf is going to take to make this right.

For the last goddamn time...

"Kill your darlings" means "if something is holding you back, get rid of it, even if it sounds pretty."

That's it! That's all it means! It means if you're stuck and stalled out on your story and you could fix the whole block by removing something but you're avoiding removing that thing because it's good, you remove that thing. That's the darling.

It does NOT mean

That you have to get rid of your self-indulgent writing

That you should delete something just because you like it (?wtf?)

That you need to kill off characters (??? what)

That you have to pare your story down to the absolute bare bones

That you have to delete anything whatsoever if you don't want to

The POINT is that you STOP FEELING GUILTY for throwing out good writing that isn't SERVING THE STORY.

The POINT is that you don't get so HUNG UP on the details that you lose sight of the BIG PICTURE.

Good grief....

I get (and mostly agree with) the posts on here talking about the importance of physical media vs digital but sometimes the tone of like 'if it's physical media you'll always have it unlike digital media' you get in these posts is deeply silly like this is in fact something that's notably famously not true of physical media actually. you can quite literally lose everything by only having physical media. both is good etc etc.

Playing pokemon today and had a nice little picnic and I left it running for 5 minutes when I went to pee, and I came back to 6 fucking eggs in my basket. This is my party.

They are all male except my goddamn houndoom. I have 6 houndour eggs from when I looked away for a couple of minutes, and as someone with no idea about egg groups I have no idea who the father is.

Slut Shame Her.
