Thanks to the spectacular efforts of @maxwellalbritten.bsky.social, now I've got my very first main with me even when I venture out to other fighting games. Manon's looking great! Shout-out also to @yalc321.bsky.social for running this gift exchange for DB crafters!
Had my first-ever crusade match this past Sunday. Didn't pull off the win, but I only lost by 10 points despite getting tabled. #warhammer40k #crusade
Crusade group is starting a new campaign soon, likely Pariah Nexus from the looks of things, and i need help breaking the mental stalemate of who to play. The shortlist is Thousand Sons or Drukhari. #warhammer40k
I've never enjoyed fighting Dhalsim before, but this set in the ranked queue last night was the most fun I've ever had in SF6. I lost the set (hell, they Perfect'd me in the last round) but I had a blast and in the moment some stuff just fundamentally clicked in place. You're rad, random Dhalsim!

Fired up SF6 last night and on a whim gave Kimberly a real go...I really like her. I've been on Manon the last 2 years and as much as I love farming command grabs, Kimmie has felt a lot more natural, and most importantly, fun. #FGC
I rarely do projectsthat involve a lot of sewing because I find the process tedious & fiddly. But watching all the bits come together feels nearly satisfying enough to make up for it. #crochet #fiberarts
If you can, put art on your walls. It doesn’t matter what it is, just make sure whatever it is makes you looks twice, stare, smile, think…
That's...That's a lot of timbits. Good job, Desert Bus. My favorite week of the year was, as always, Wonderful. #DB2025
Look at all that fire! One Million Dollars baby! #DB2025
The prize page for "Silent Auction: Final Fantasy Critter Cohorts" from Desert Bus for Hope 2025. The page shows several pictures of a crocheted Moogle, (a small white creature with a large white nose and antenna topped by a red ball) and Tonberry (A green lizard-like creature with a brown robe, chef's knife, and lantern) from the Final Fantasy series of video games. The winning bid is displayed: $3,105.00 (usd) from user duaiwe.
My silent auction has now closed. Thank you everyone who bid, and much love to duaiwe for putting in a whole $3105 for the win. I hope you enjoy your new buddies! #DB2025
We are officially live. ~8 hours and counting!
Today's the day my little video game creatures find a new home! Silent auction starts at 1pm Eastern, and after Nighwatch's...spirited Final Fantasy discussion last night, I hope some folks get excited for them.

In the midst of getting frustrated at Dayne St. Clair's antics and my team's apparent inability to not bounce PK's off the frame, I finished writing a Locked Tomb oneshot yesterday. It's now up on ao3 if anyone happens to feel like taking a look. archiveofourown.org/works/73935216
Locked in for Match 3 🫡
Wonderwall is a good song, it made for a great reoccurring gag at Desert Bus last year, but by Tzeentch I do NOT want to hear the Minnesota fans singing it 2 hours from now.
Today is a day of Soccer & hobbies for me. A couple UK matches this morning and then 3 MLS playoff match-ups later. Looking forward to getting some crochet and writing done while the action happens on the various fields.
#DesertBus2025 Donations are open and the Prize schedule has been fully revealed! And there's some really cool stuff that's up for grabs!
My contribution, the Moogle+Tomberry combo will be run as a silent auction starting at 1pm Eastern on Thursday, November 20th!

Its almost time...
Spent my evening playing a World of Darkness mod for Crusader Kings, wherein I played an Angel of Death-turned Lust demon and conquered half of Russia while under the domain of Baba Yaga.
Fun times. Might try playing as one of the fae rulers next.

Craft-Along part 2 is officially finished! All thats left is to send them off and tune in to #DesertBus2025
A vaguely lizard-like plush figure crocheted out of green yarn. Be hind it is an article that looks like a beige coat with a high collar.
Two weeks later and the weird green peanut now has arms, a tail, and most of a cloak! This year's craft-along is taking a bit more time than previous entries, but it's on track. #DesertBus2025
Craftalong update! With the first little dude finished, the second is now underway. Here's the current state. #DesertBus2025
I've been terrible at doing my typical updates for #DesertBus2025 craft along, but half the project is complete.
The @mlspa.bsky.social has put out this statement about the shirts players are wearing during pregame.
Acceptance email for the Craft-Along came in. We're officially on the road to @desertbus.org 2025!
Coming up on the end of The Shadow Over Cyberspace (It's amazing), and I find myself wishing we could see what would happen if @fictionfactorygames.com were given the chance to play around in the World of Darkness. Particularly with @jacobburgess.bsky.social lending his myriad talents to the effort.
It's time for a craftalong update! I may be too close to be a proper judge, but I feel like at this point it's fairly obvious what I'm making.
