if you're a coer hating on lngshot's music then you're delusional. if you're a shotties hating on cortis' music then you're also delusional. lngshot isn't what cortis wishes they were. lngshot isn't living in cortis' shadow. these groups make music that is different from the other. both groups contribute to their own music. you're allowed to not like one or the other but some of the excuses/reasons yall are trying to pull out of your ass are crazy.
life when you listen to what you like without shitting on what you don't enjoy for likes/rts/reblogs. life when you realize that you don't have to stan every single idol you listen to and are allowed to just be a casual listener
Like a month ago I messaged a craft group about accessibility for wheelchairs and the answer I got was “there’s a lot of stairs but we have cute boys who can carry you”.
And it’s…not good. As a wheelchair bound person I largely depend on people when I want to go out and do *anything* so I’m used to it, I laugh it off, make an annoyed post about it and off I go. But I wanna just say a thing real quick.
Even if I wasn’t gay, wasn’t a survivor scared of men, getting help as a disabled person is just…Not a pleasant thing to us! Imagine for a sec how you’d feel being carried up a flight of stairs. You’re a grown person. You’re being touched in an awkward way. You’d rather do it yourself. You’re So Uncomfortable. It’s not where I look for the beginning of a romantic relationship.
So like…could abled people stop doing this thing where they think helping us in a condescending and infantilizing way is cute? Cause I’m real tired. Just get me a ramp or lift and I’m cool. I don’t need a dating service when I’m just trying to go about my day
5 years ago today, I released the first demo of When Twilight Strikes. The demo only included the first 3 chapters (and was on an entirely different platform), but I was so proud of it. I still am. I remember sitting in my university dorm when I pressed "send." I had spent the morning frantically combing through the files for grammar mistakes, which I later would find hundreds more of, like pests you cannot get rid of. Still, for at least a moment, I was worry-free. WTS is my first-ever IF game. One of my first ever endeavours to become an author. It will always hold a special place in my heart.
I'll skip to the part you care about now: to mark the occasion, I'm officially announcing that Chapter 13 will be available to play on April 17th, 2026. This is the latest date the update will go live; there's a chance that, if I get things done quicker, it will be moved up by a few days.
As before, Patreon release will be 3 and 5 days earlier than public release on the Twilight and Midnight tiers, respectively. I’ll post another announcement as we get closer to the date.
Now, I know accomplishments shouldn’t solely be measured by numbers, but I’ve racked up quite a few statistics that I’m very proud of, such as:
824k views and 399k browser plays
1425 ratings (+300 from TMH: Shorts)
Top 15 on the "Top Rated Interactive Fiction" category
And of course, maybe the one I’m proudest of all: the fact that this game is over 680,000+ words (Chapter 13 is 117k and counting).
5 years is a long time. I’m not sure I thought I’d get here when I posted that demo all that time ago, but here I am, still more passionate about this project than ever before. A large chunk of that has to do with my audience. You.
Thank you for supporting me, thank you for loving my writing, story and characters as much as I do. Thank you for giving me a chance. I know it’s been a long wait since initial release in 2021, but I really appreciate everyone who has stuck by me. Whether you started reading my story today or have been here with me since that first demo, I appreciate you.
