If you are struggling mentally or are in a dark place let this be a small check point to say, it does get better.

In 2023-24 I had some of the worst depression of my life. I felt like my entire career was gone as Twitter died, but more and more I keep noticing how much I’ve improved since then.

Sometimes we are doing our community a disservice by not being transparent about when things go badly (and things went the worst today). Not every day will be a win.

Obligatory: we are fine, our car is okay-ish.

I may delete this because it’s a bit spicy but it shouldn’t be lost on us that games being turned into TV is essentially harvesting the stories written by those who don’t have union representation or healthcare with WGA by those that do. Our stories are good enough for TV but the writers aren’t?

Alucard is staying another month to give out another round of warm hugs, Minthara is back with those festive Black Forest coffee vibes, joined by Bill and Frank with strawberries, cream, and rosΓ©. If you’re feeling floral, Shadowheart is there for you, or if you’re feeling spicy, Dina’s got you.
