Reblog to Save a Life

I have talked about it before, but independant artists, and by extension independant TTRPG designers like myself and my team, live and die by their social media presence. We can't afford a lot of advertising, if any, and so we rely not only on word-of-mouth advertisement, but also just the good will of our audience. Like another designer @cavegirlpoems put it, we're basically busking, putting our art out for everyone and hoping for voluntary donations, donations which I writing this am reliant on as a disabled designer who can't work a normal job.

If you can't pay, you can still have it for free, and something that can be just as helpful is reblogging the posts of artists like myself. I'll demonstrate with a screenshot from our itch.io page for the open beta for Eureka: Investigative Urban Fantasy.

(and on these days, it was only about 6 or 7 people who did the reblogging.)

As you can see, reblogs mean more people see our game, which means more downloads (and sometimes even payments), downloads mean more people play our game and more people see our game in the itch.io algorithm, which means more views, which means more downloads, which means more and so on and so on. But, it all starts with you reblogging our posts, and without that, we're stagnate. It doesn't matter if you have 1,000 followers or 10, your reblog means that our posts reach corners of tumblr that wouldn't have seen it otherwise.

Myself and others are reliant on a 2-second reblog to be able to support ourselves as artists, you and your 10 followers are where it starts.

I hate to basically e-beg, but Eureka is doing pretty bad very suddenly for the past couple of days, probably, quite understandably, because of current events. We have also lost 3 patreon subscribers in quick succession, which is a big loss for such a small indie team like ours.

But because of both current events and also yknow the general continuous state of being unable to really have a normal job in America, this is when I, personally, am going to need the most support.

Please buy the beta of Eureka: Investigative Investigative Urban Fantasy for pay-what-you-want price on itchio(it's also just a really good game, you are getting a really good game out of this), and/or subscribe to our patreon for even more Eureka content as well as a soon-to-come playable test version of a brand new game.

If you can't spare the cash, you can still help out immensely by downloading the Eureka beta for free, giving it a rating on itchio, talking about it, telling your friends about it, and/or reblogging our tumblr posts even if you think you don't have a lot of followers.

@mmmmmonday that is so great to hear! People playing and enjoying the game is so gratifying and encouraging to us as creators!

The actual main reason i'm reblogging this with a screenshot like this though is to clear up a misconception about tumblr and algorithms.

Tumbr does technically have an algorithm now but it's a very recent inclusion and doesn't really do much. If you or anyone actually wants to make a post more visible to others, you have to reblog it. Most of the "post flow" or whatever you'd call it is by users circulating posts manually through reblogs.

genuine question, not trying to be unkind: in what way is “movies that are not made for children” an incomprehensibly complex idea

[sodomit]

I don't know the full context of that conversation, but I can easily see why "movies that are not made for children" could be called an incomprehensible category.

It's because it could be defined in completely different ways, and includes content that cannot be meaningfully grouped together.

It can include movies that children are legally not allowed to watch (which is a shitty concept), movies made without children in mind, but that still attract children (like most action or horror movies), movies made by someone who's trying to be an edgelord on purpose because they believe "adult" media should be offensive (like a large part of cartoons that are marketed as for adults), movies that are considered too complex for children for some socially constructed reason.

In general, the idea that something is not made for children should invite skepsis and digging deeper.

[nonbinary-starry]

The Brave Little Toaster (great movie btw) for instance is a good example of an animation that was targeted at teenagers and young adults but became popular with kids. It was picked up by an arthouse film distributor for the theatrical release and was nominated for an award at the film festival for being the best film there (it lost because it was animated).

So like, the brave little toaster is technically in the same category as A Serbian Film.

[merlilica]

you did not seriously just compare an animated kids film called “the brave little toaster” to a Serbian film, about a pornstar in a snuff film, which has been banned in multiple countries and cited by many as the most disturbing movie ever made, because they were both art films.

[nonbinary-starry]

I'm not, I'm just saying that there's a very wide variety in adult movies

[merlilica]

In what way is brave little toaster an adult movie I am genuinely asking, because the book is intended for children, and the movie is intended for children. A kids’ film that chooses to treat its subject matter in the same way as a film made for adults isn’t a movie made for adults, it’s just a good kids’ film.

[touchyourblood]

I'm crying, the brave little toaster is owned by Disney. Yes it was technically made by an independent studio but they needed Disney's permission and funding as Disney had owned film rights to the book for years by then.

as someone (an adult) who isn’t into it, the milf/dilf thing is not about ageplaying or roleplaying as their child. The milf/dilf label is just the fact that they’re middle-aged. They just like middle-aged people. Like they like people who are at the age where they could be worn out suburban parents. It’s nothing to do with wanting to boink your parents, that’s an entirely different thing

Also people who have kids and have been through divorce should be able to date again, that shouldn’t be a taboo thing to talk about

i didn't say roleplaying as *their* child is what makes it ageplay (though??? yes that does happen and it's not rare in any way, again i'll refer you to a huge portion of the media -not just mainstream porn, it's also in plenty of popular books, movies, etc- straight people enjoy). you yourself said "the milf/dilf label is just the fact that they’re middle-aged". for someone who is into m/dilfs, their age is half the fun, this is quite evidently a form of ageplay itself, even if you don't age regress when having sex with one. also, who is making it taboo???? i'm perfectly fine with people fucking someone who has children or is divorced (or married lmao give it a rest pollyanna). i don't give a shit if a 20yo fucks a 75yo for that matter, i'm just calling a spade a spade, and pointing out how much you people love saying if a trans woman likes one too it must be to bury bodies with it

the fact that i've received several anons like this, defending the honor of The General Straight Public who make 78% of their sexuality about age and family relations but are poor little meow meows who could never mean it in an incest/ageplay way just further proves my original point

[tboy-trash]

almost every anon i've gotten since i posted about how trans women get chased off this site for liking things that are extremely popular among everyone else has been some iteration of "but it's not the same because, you see, I'm Normal". ironically, this generates in me a reaction of pure disgust that no kink could ever do. fix your hears or -preferably- die.

out of the backyard gang baljeet is one of the worst to make into a coffee table. ferb would also be pretty bad. phineas and isabella would be mid because they have those bigass heads but the skinny bodies. might be worse than baljeet and ferb if you're a person who cares about symmetry. buford would objectively make the best coffee table because his silhouette has the most evenly-spaced surface area. now if you wanna talk about pnf characters in general i think pet mode perry would be the best coffee table out of all of them
