After having played most of the Zelda series, I’ve FINALLY started A Link to the Past!!!
Smol Link with pink hair is <3. Drew this to merge the signature pink into his blond cover art/sequel color palette— inspired in part by the Hero of Legend’s pink-dipped hair in the Linked Universe AU✨. Gotta love these old-school heroes :)

Is Palia enough of a Farm Game for me to post here?
Maybe, it might be, it's got a lot of Farm Game elements at least
I'm going to go ahead and make a really long post about it because it's my blog and I can do what I want and I've been following this game for a while now and if you like what you see I'd appreciate it if you used my Refer-A-Friend link if you want to make your own account to play this used someone else's Refer-A-Friend link if you want to make your own account to play this because I got all the stuff already and you should give the benefits to someone else who needs them
Disclaimer: I've never played this game, it's not out yet, I've never done the alpha and I don't work for them, all the information and photos are from Palia's website, social media, and discord
What Is Palia?
Palia (pronounced pay-lee-uh) is an upcoming cozy mmo being developed by Singularity 6
It's a Free-To-Play game which will only monetize optional cosmetics, it will not be a pay-to-win game, there are no loot boxes, you can read more about it here
Palia is going into closed beta on August 2nd, 2023 and into open beta about a week later on August 10th, 2023 for PC. It's also coming to Nintendo Switch this holiday season
You can create your account now for a chance to get into the closed beta, you can use my a Refer-A-Friend link, I'll talk more about it later
Cool, What's The Game Like Though?
You play as a human that recently returned to the world of Palia after all of them disappeared thousands of years ago, so mysterious~ The story unfolds as you make friends with NPCs and build yourself a new home
In Palia you can:
Fish
Forage
Hunt
Mine
Catch insects
Cook
Make furniture
And garden! Which is basically farming ;)
You can also befriend and romance NPCs like these two:
I don't know all of the ones you CAN romance because I couldn't find a specific list but they have confirmed romantic options are not limited by gender and are also completely optional
A lot of these are pretty standard Farm Game fare so I feel like it might be fairly appealing to y'all, it is at least to me
You can also play with other people since it's an mmo, or solo, they said that almost everything can be done alone but might be easier or more fun with friends (we could be in game friends when it comes out c: make sure to tell me your character's name though)
Okay, What's The Link You Keep Bringing Up?
In order to play Palia, you need to make an account (regardless of if you're planning on playing on PC or Switch) which can be done now even though the game isn't out. In order to help reach more users the devs made a Refer-A-Friend promotion where if you have an account, you get a link to share with your friends (or strangers on the internet) in hopes 5 people will use it to make their account so you get cool in game stuff
I want got the stuff. Please use someone else's link, there's a lot of them in Palia's discord in the Refer-A-Friend section
When you use someone's Refer-A-Friend link to make your account, YOU get a fruit basket item in game! and the ability to attempt to get people to use your new code to get those items up there, it's absolutely multi-level marketing but they need players and I everyone want items
Conclusion
I think this game looks fun, I'm not sure if I'll keep talking about it, it really could just be a Game With Farming and not a Farm Game, time will tell but I had to take the opportunity of hocking my Link here since I was getting nowhere on my personal blog or in their discord (but now I've got it, thank you!!)
Palia is doing a gameplay preview presentation thing tomorrow at 10am PT on youtube and twitch, check that out if you'd like to see more
Ever since making my human Shockwave design, both my original one and this one, I've been thinking of what arm he would have because even if you have access to a cannon arm as a human it's logical to have a functional arm prosthetic maybe idk-
An extra ever since after reading @nukeli 's SG Shockwave fic I've also been thinking of human Shockwave having a donor arm like what happens in the oneshot, it being mismatched because though demand is high supply is very very low and replacement body parts don't last-
it's almost the two year anniversary of the time terfs came into my inbox to tell me I would suffer organ prolapse from getting my uterus removed and I just want them all to know - it never happened and i'm perfectly fine and happy :)
I was in the mood for a shitty movie tonight (A Princess For Christmas, no idea why but who cares? Katie looks stunning and after watching it 10 times I learned to completely ignore that guy's, whatever his name is, existence) but I can't find it anywhere that works properly, I found it on YouTube which is great but the image quality sucks and on a (very suspicious) random website the quality is amazing but 3 minutes into it the sound gets messed up, what does a poor gay woman needs to do to get her daily dose of Katie McGrath in this place? This is outrageous
Katherine thought had envisioned it in her mind so clearly, this grand summit that would bring together all the important bloodlines in Paris. The city that would star as the center of the very earth for the time they were all present. She had painted the faces of known royals in the canvas of her mind, in ballrooms and tournaments, for the entire journey to France. The trip had taken so long she could have managed to create half a novel. It was a welcome escape from the endless fields of grass, rocky cliffs and calm blue waters. And it let her prepare, or at least so she thought. Because it turned out, what her mind could picture on its own was hardly a spec of the grandeur that awaited.
If it hadn’t been for her mother’s many lessons, she doubted she could have kept her face as seamless as she had during the church gathering. Her mind went through many stages that first day. During the ceremony she came to terms with the reality that she had been absolutely clueless as to what divinity truly looked like. Nor had she had any clue of what splendor mankind could create. As her lips mimicked the latin words she had spoken so many times before, and she watched her father receive the gilded insignia, she failed to recall a time in her life in which she had felt as small and unimportant. And in silence she made a promise to herself that it was not the feeling she would leave the country with. For her own sake, as well as that of England.
A night of restless sleep did not help in shaking the feeling from the day before, nor did breakfast. Her father had already left to attend meetings of importance, and both her sisters had vanished as well. Their energy seemingly had not run out like hers had. - Apple in hand, she made her way out into the courtyard. Her gaze scanning the surroundings, that somehow looked quite unlike the night before. Trying to figure out in which direction to go, and if she was in need of either a carriage ride or a horse to reach her desired destination. “How do these people all seem so certain as to where they are heading?” she mumbled underneath her breath, as she stood still a little off the center of the courtyard. Trying to make up her mind as to where her sisters could have gone.
ok this is a giant mess that skips all around due to my erraticass reading habits & tendency to forget to enter things, but for the past year or so, i've been tossing almost everything i read into this monstrosity
it's just a bigass list of comics that records every (significant) character appearance in each individual issue with combination filters so you can sort by characters & character combos (along with a couple other things)
again i stress: a MESS. this is the first time i've ever fucked with coding. if you're someone who actually knows about this shit, avert your eyes for your own sanity, but hopefully some of y'all will find it useful!
when jane dies, the government recovers her body without anyone’s knowledge in order to study it and do their own experiments. she had a funeral, was lowered into the ground, but no one knew she wasn’t in the coffin. her body was removed in the morgue and replaced with a fake, just like will’s. pieces of her are sent out to various facilities, her organs, eyes, brain, etc are separated for research purposes. overtime, pieces of her get lost in transfers, small fragments like a tooth or strands of hair, but all still janessa ives. even in death she can’t be left alone. after about six months, sam owens discovers the truth of what happened to her body, and always a big advocator for jane to live a normal life, does his best to track down what remains of her body. in the process, he, and his people succeed in shutting down some of the facilities that illegally claimed possession of her. within a few months he salvages as much of her as he can; it’s not everything, but it’s majority of what’s left. he does tell those who were closest to jane, so they can have a proper burial. she’s instead buried in a mausoleum, both out of respect for what she did in her life, and a further layer of protection for her in the afterlife.
