The Dress Waltz for @magicalflurry

[gothiccharmschool]

Way back in the day, goth clubs would project movies on the walls of the club. Not because anyone was there to watch a movie, but it added to the overall club-going experience.

If Legend was the movie, damn near the entire club came to a stop as we all watched this scene. And possibly pined over the dress.

This scene TRANSFIXED baby-pooks, which is hilarious in hindsight

I think a lot of what pro-AI people are really wanting is stuff that already exists but they don't know it's out there like

can't format a work email? templates

don't know how to write a resume? templates

writing a thank you card or a condolences card or a wedding invitation? templates templates templates

not sure how to format your citations in MLA or whatever format? citationmachine.net

summary of something you're reading for school/work? cliffnotes.com

recipe based on ingredients in your fridge? whatsintherefrigerator.com

there's a million more like, guys, we don't need AI, we never needed generative AI

CHIPUL TAU SI DRAGOSTEA DIN TEI

What is this? What is this from? Why do thousands of people know what this is. Apparently it’s Romanian. What is it??

[accessibleposts]

They’re the lyrics to the song Dragostea Din Tei by Moldovan pop group O-zone. It was a very popular song in the early 2000s

We’ve finally reached the point where the old memes are too old for today’s generation… Fs in the chat.

For any wretched zoomers…one of the original viral videos aka the finest of vintage memes

💫 BE GAY DO GLIDES

After years of dreaming of making this game a reality, and then more years of pitching in the WORST STATE THE GAMES INDUSTRY HAS EVER BEEN, I am SO EXCITED to be launching a Kickstarter to make this game on our own terms.

This game is my heart, and I'm so proud of what we've made so far. Please help us get to complete it 💜 We've got patches, pins, HATS, prints, digital deluxes, and even THE OPPPORTUNITY TO GET YOUR CAT IN GAME. Please head over to our Kickstarter to pledge, and any shouting and cheering is worth its weight in gold.

I love you all, broom broom xxx

How do you talk about trying to brute-force a dream into reality? How do you talk about something you desperately need to make in a weird art-compulsion way whilst also REALLY TRYING to be commercially appealing for the people who fund games? The answer is: WITH DIFFICULTY.

HELLO I'M MAKING THE VIDEO GAME CRESCENT COUNTY

IT HAS BEEN REALLY HARD

Trying to be an artist making a gay witch video game about motorbike broom drifting and messy self discovery whilst ALSO trying to convince game publishers that there is a very specific audience for the game that I KNOW will love this has been akin to pulling teeth with tongs slathered in lard . Slippery, painful, and at a certain point you start wondering that there has GOT to be another way.

So we're doing a Kickstarter! It is very difficult to ask for things but I'm asking this from my favourite place on the internet; if you like video games and you like supporting queer art (I know you do) and you like making stuff a reality that otherwise probably won't exist, please check the Kickstarter for Crescent County out. Follow it, share it, pledge to it when it goes live next month if you can. Cause fucking HELL I need to make this game and our tiny tiny team has been working SO HARD, but the industry is on FIRE right now and we can't make this without your support.

LOTS OF LOVE, TIME TO DISAPPEAR INTO A VULNERABILITY PIT

[annahollinrake]

I should probably lead with the open world thing

so YES let me tell you about it!

you can DRIFT and you can put SIGIL STICKERS on your broom to give it different powers, and you can UPGRADE it

and the current island in our demo is WAY TOO BIG for what we need but at least we've PROVEN WE CAN DO THE TECH (and it runs on Steam Deck! like not amazingly right now but it runs!!)

and you can JUMP OFF MOUNTAINS AND GLIDE THROUGH WIND TURBINES TO GET BOOSTS

if this sounds like your vibe you can follow our game on Kickstarter! going live this May!

Meeting The Man: James Baldwin in Paris

[Image description: A series of close up profile screenshots of James Baldwin. Captions are printed on each shot.

“Love has never been a popular movement. The world is held together, really it is held together, by the love and the passion of very few people. Otherwise, of course you can despair. Walk down the street of any city, any afternoon, and look around you. What you’ve got to remember is what you are looking at is also you. Everyone you’re looking at is also you. You could be that person. You could be that monster, you could be that cop. And you have to decide, in yourself, not to be.”
