👉🏽 girl help I can’t stop drawing connections between ghetto fabulous fashion and other cultural attire because it gets a bad rep in western aestheticism for being too loud, gaudy, and ostentatious despite keeping the art of adornment alive 👈🏽
It's my birthday this week! To celebrate, I put basically everything (that isn't already part of a bundle) on sale. Wahoo!
I might be biased, but I think there's some very cool stuff you can pick up.
If you've been enjoying my sneak previews of Stampede Wasteland, you'll probably want to check out DEATHGRIND!!MEGASTRUCTURE, which is in many ways a mechanical precursor to what's going on in Stampede. Also, its got a megastructure.
There's also Into the Riverlands, a system-neutral setting zine chock full of flavor. Some of which you can see here.
Or, maybe you want something a little more experimental. Then check out Fractal Romance's expansion, Velvet Fragments, which includes a whole new set of playbooks for exploring the Fractal Palace with. (There's a decent change you might already own Fractal Romance, it's been in some big bundles).
i think we should remind musicians they can absolutely make up little stories for their songs btw. it doesn’t have to be about them at all. you can invent a guy and put him in situations to music. time honoured tradition in fact.
As a lesbian, it’s happened twice already that one “guy” stands out to me and I think “huh maybe they’re kinda cute and interesting, I wanna get to know them” and then I get to know them better and it’s a closeted trans girl who I somehow sniffed with my little nonbinary lesbian nose
Writing is not about 'telling an epic story' or 'making something that will outlive you'. Writing is about going "You know what would be fucking awesome?" and then committing word crimes
major props to christopher eccleston for acting out the lines "i couldn't save your world. i couldn't save any of them" with such subtle and layered emotions while also struggling against mannequin people trying to throw him into a pit of lava (he is very clearly standing on a styrofoam pad lit by LED lights)

1: "i'll rewrite this whole life and this time there'll be / so much love, / you won't be able to see beyond it."
2: "i take my whiskey neat / my coffee black and my bed at 3 / you're too sweet for me / you're too sweet for me"
3: "know i'm always thinking of you / always thinking i could love you more"
4: "tell me you love me, he says. / tell me again. / could there be a sweeter / arrangement? over and over / he gets to ask it. / i get to tell."
5: "it's knowing that this can't go on forever / likely one of us will have to spend some days alone / maybe we'll get forty years together / but one day i'll be gone / or one day you'll be gone"
6: "[chorus] so i'll love you 'til my lungs give out, i ai'nt lyin' / i'm all your'n and you're all mine / there ain't two ways about it / there ain't no tryin' 'bout it / i'm all your'n and you're all mine"
7: "when i go toward you / it is with my whole life" /end id]
