#so if that's an incentive

[taylorpixiedust]

We're raising money on Twitch!

hey, i don't really talk about streaming on Twitch, or post about when i'm live, but this month is different.

For the entire month of September, I'm going to be trying to raise money for the One of Us Global Foundation, because why not.

The link to the campaign is right here, and it should redirect you to the Tiltify page, but if that doesn't work, it'll be in my bio when I get around to putting it in.

Right now, the base goal is 150$ USD, but there's no real urgency, since we have the whole month. If you could spare some money, it'd be really appreciated, and if you do it on-stream, you can use the donations to make me do weird stuff.

Unfortunately, my schedule is iffy, because I'm a college student, but I'm going to try to stream daily around 2-3 PM EST. In the spirit of the core of the foundation, as well, I'll be streaming Minecraft and trying to not be absolute trash at Hypixel minigames.

Reblogs and signal boosts are heavily appreciated, and thank you so much for taking the time to read this!

#charity #fundraising #fundraiser #one of us #one of us global foundation #minecraft #hypixel #announcement #my birthday is coming up too #so if that's an incentive #there you go #im raising money #that's the TLDR #please signal boost #please reblog #i'll see you in chat if you come in!

💖 Day 3.5 is now available! 💖

For the last couple of months, only Server Boosters had access to the 3.5 update... Buuuuut now it's available for everyone to play in the 14DWY Discord — and soon itch.io once I'm happy with the QA and state of the game — so please don't feel pressured to join unless you want to!!

The full devlog + even more screenshots are under the cut ^^

What's been added to the 3.5 version?

📺 Streamer Mode!

I've been told that it's difficult to stream and monetise age-restricted videos on YouTube and Twitch, so I added an option to remove the sexual content and strong language used in the demo.

Now y'all can invite Ren into your bed for cuddles without putting your streamer career on the line /silly /lh

This won't affect the 18+ rating or dark themes/elements of the game, however! Although Streamer Mode will prevent you from seeing any "gruesome" CGs in the future, most of the core elements of the game will still be tied to the choices and decisions you make. So you won't miss out on the overall experience by using streamer mode!!

⚙️ Custom Pronouns!

It only took me one entire year to get around to it, but you can finally choose your own preferred pronouns (or use a set of pronouns instead)... At the cost of being able to change them mid-game ^^;

Since the original pronoun screen wouldn't update until a new scene was displayed, I temporarily disabled the feature. But once I find a workaround, I'll bring it back!

💗 Choose how others perceive you!

You can now choose how the cast and narration perceive you! Originally, the narration was kept strictly gender-neutral (outside of pronouns and genitalia picked by the player), but this will soon change in future updates.

For more clarity: you don't get to choose the words specifically, but you can choose between masculine, feminine, and androgynous terms!

📋 Separate top and bottom genitalia!

You can now choose your tatas and pps separately! >:3

Alongside that, you can also choose your preferred body type!

I removed the "both" genitalia option because a few players still assumed it was an obscure version of "intersex". That wasn't my intention and I don't want to mislead anyone, so I took it out for now ^^;

I also didn't want to include a screenshot of the new genitalia choices in action (because it's NSFW), so y'all get the same character menu screen for the nth time instead lmao

📱 Relationship Screen Overhaul!

You can now change your own status for more immersion, and long-term Server Boosters will eventually be able to submit and use their own icon within the game as well!

Stalking finding your friends has now become easier by using "Buddy Maps"; a new app that allows you to see the location of all the cast members!

I want to offer players more incentive to check the relationship screen since they tend to miss the status updates, so hopefully this might help ;v;

It also says it "updates every few hours" so folks don't go overboard and check every 5 seconds to see where Ren is gdsghf (also keep in mind that he's a hacker lol)

🖤 Additional Scenes Update!

Day 2 received a brand new CG!!!!! Originally, I planned on only adding a few CGs sporadically throughout the game, but it didn't feel right to leave Day 2 so... empty... so I added a brand new CG to (hopefully) make things feel more balanced and natural!

If you decline Teo's offer on Day 3, Leon will now call and try to convince you to reconsider. However, players are still allowed to decline, and if they do, they'll reach a dead end.

After listening to feedback on itch, I changed some of the dialogue during Days 1-3 to make it seem more consistent! They're only small changes though, so it's honestly not worth looking for sdgjssga

🎶 Updated BGM and SFX!

I wanted to try out a different style of music to see if it fits the vibe of 14DWY more! The BGM features more acoustics to suit the "beachy" theme of Corland Bay, though I made a conscious effort to include piano elements as well to stay true to the original!!

I figured it'd be better to give players a live example before I make a poll (to see if they prefer the change or not) and publish it to Itch.

Some new SFX have also been added, though it's very minimal and honestly not that noticeable.

How to download and play the update?

(warning: clicking on the following links will open Discord!!) To download the Day 3.5 update, simply join the 14DWY Discord server, verify your age, and visit the "14dwy-updates" channel!

Alternatively, you can also wait until the update is publicly released on Itch to play it as well!! (It normally gets released shortly after a round of QA testing/getting feedback from the server, though I may release it earlier if I feel like it hehe ^^)

Enjoy!!

listen. i know it sounds fucking insane coming from me but if you haven't already i need you to log onto twitter and vote for sans in the finals of the tumblr sexyman poll

sure reigensweep is hilarious. but this is more than that. this is SO much more than that i need you to see my vision. twink supreme was funny. it was the introduction. dilf supreme solidified it, but now? this meme can't physically keep going forever. it's not a matter of "if" he loses it's matter of WHEN. specifically, when it'd be funnier. and i NEED YOU to imagine how fucking HYSTERICAL it would be if reigen lost the only competition he actually had the credentials for TO SANS FUCKING UNDERTALE.

it's the perfect 3 arc structure to the perfect joke. i need you to imagine a world where that happens. i need you to imagine the memes. the art people would make. the fanart *I* could make. I'm begging you to see the bigger picture. don't let reigensweep run itself into oblivion. it could go down today, but it would go down in HISTORY. don't let the perfect setup be destroyed by commitment to the bit.

#also i promised twitter i would draw sexy sans so if this didn't convince you maybe me inflicting myself psychic trauma will incentive you #undertale #there are less than 7h less. reigen is winning by a 5% margin. WE CAN DO THIS. #i need you to understand that i am destroying over a year of my personal work of returning sans to his someguy origins #this is actively detrimental to my mission. but it's MORE IMPORTANT. IT'S TAKES THE HIGHER PRIORITY #sans #SANSSWEEP

wolfwood redraws (ID in alt text)

#nicholas d wolfwood #trigun #trigun maximum #tw blood #going to be talking vol 9 spoilers in here pls do not read if u have not read it!! #wolfwood my beloved. he's such a battle genius with such strong survival instincts and incentive to fight. it makes me so sad but also #it's just the way he's been able to live for as long as he has [explodes] #midvalley calling him a demon/devil (iforget which word) and livio being like “victory seems impossible” when faced against him aughhh AUGH #he's clearly not invincible - vol 8 proved that when he almost did get beat if not for vash swooping back in... but the way he carries #the battles really makes it feel like it. especially whenever he “revives” for the sake of protecting another person. i.e. him getting #back up to defeat livio - him battered and worn from the fight but then pushing his body to get up when chapel aimed at the orphanage #and then despite the blood gushing out of him he still regained cautiousness to defend razlo at the end.... ugh.... ugh..... #anyway... i love how nightow draws ww - these were fun to do. ive been meaning to do these redraws esp from vol 9/10 #and maybe ill go back to do redraws from his previous fights. all and all i just need to get down how he uses the punisher properly #ruporas art

i saw you said you don't use spotify, do you stream at all? what's your preferred way to listen to music?

behold, the humble ipod nano! no ads, no subscription fees, 16 gb storage space, fits easily in any pocket, has audio jack, long battery life, the screen has been broken for about 10 years but it's still going strong

#answered #i have almost 2000 songs on there and many of them are not on streaming services so there's really no incentive for me to stop using it haha #also i am kinda emotionally attached to it

I did these illustrations for @beholdingthegaytimes 's fic 'It's Only Forever, Not Long At All' which is a part of The Endless Big Bang 2023.

On Tim's Boat

*Tim and Bernard are laying in bed sleeping, limbs entangled as Bernard sleeps on Tim's chest*

*at 3:47am Bernard is awoken*

Bernard, swatting Tim as he is squinting in the dark: Hey grasshopper? Is that a sleep paralysis demon-

Tim, shifting slightly, eyes still shut, basically sleepy mumbling: you wouldn't be hitting me, you'd be paralyzed

Bernard: then I think someone is stealing clothes from our closet

Tim, running his hand through Bernard's hair so Bernard knows he is listening: don't know why, we are the pits of fashion, they should be stealing from Sophie and Louie's closet, or even Tammy and Lauren's closet

Bernard: is that... Robin?

Tim, wide awake now, swiveling his head towards the closet: WHAT?

Damian, standing there in a Robin outfit looking through their clothes in the closet, gathering a pile on his arm: Your father wants you to call him, Drake

Bernard: Robin works for Bruce? Actually, that's not surprising.

Robin, walking out with a pile of clothes on his arm: I am confiscating these *walks out the door*

Bernard:

Tim:

Bernard:

Tim:

Bernard: Guess you could say he was... Robin us.

Tim: You're lucky I love you

Edit: Part 2

#Bernard: did Robin seem a lot shorter to you? there has to be multiple robins cause i swear the marina robin is a lot taller #Tim: *sweats nervously* #i love the 'damian suprisingly loves hand-me-down clothes from his siblings' hcs so just him stealing clothes from his siblings #but he didnt realize bernard and tim were living together and therefore have the same closet so he also stole bernards clothes #dont worry i am making a part two of this for when Bernard finds out Damian has been accidentally stealing his clothes too #tim drake #damian wayne #bernard dowd #timbern #timber #i had to make them cuddling cause you know that is the only way they would both have incentive to go to bed other than like... passing out #that is the only way to not have them in a fully dead sleep cause they passed out from exhaustion cause they both have poor sleep schedules #Tim's is like 'i go out as robin every night so i dont sleep at night' and Bernard's is like 'I let my whims take me where they must #and if that is a 13 hour frantic rabbithole about mothman that keeps me from sleep then i wont sleep that night i guess' #but if they cuddle they wont start other things and will fall asleep talking and tim will just be like *montone* 'oh no guess I wont patrol #tonight. oh well its been slow anyway' and he actually goes to sleep so your honor i had to make them cuddling for the sake of storytelling

what kind of favour do you require in exchange for an equineswap jiang yanli

I will fight god if that's what it takes.

[catmask]

very silly question but!! would it be ok if we used some of the twitch emotes as discord emotes? no worries if not!! wanna spread the gospel of road boy celibacy . . .

i honestly hadnt considered people would yet want to yet (and i did post transparent/clean versions of them so a few people already started using them and mentioned so in the tags) - my plan was to make a bigger pack of all the characters and sell it as a digital download on kofi.

which is absolutely my bad, of course if i post the transparent versions people are gonna use em, i feel a little goofy for that (i just wanted to show em off because i thought they were cool but i got so excited i forgot to use my brain)

that said, if people wanna use the ones i already posted, go ahead! those are freebies. i wouldnt wanna take it back now that people are already having fun using them, ill just have to remember to watermark/put a lil disclaimer for the ones i post as promotion in the future.

i am gonna do more and some other characters, and for those i think im gonna avoid posting them at least without a water mark. but for the ones that are already up, cat's already out of the bag so to speak.

#the rest of the pack i wanna have algernon and yue too so at the very least there will be some incentive for the ones that arent posted for #freebies. and that said if theres any specific faces/phrases/emotes you guys want #feel free to suggest that! so far i have planned to do a 'good night!' emote for yue and different little pride emotes for the diff charas #mailbox

[zvaigzdelasas]

why did i just see a noahpinion tweet with 30k likes try to claim the chinese social credit system was a thing. i thought we were done with this

All in favor of pointing and laughing at Noah (☝️🤣) but tbh not a fan of how "social credit isn't a thing at all" has become the standard talking point among anglo pro-china people bc. It is a thing. The reason these takes are ridiculous is bc they're acting like it's targeted towards individuals & some black mirror individual scoring system shit that controls the lives of individuals, when in reality it 1) does actually exist 2) is primarily targeted towards businesses (hence why "man on the street" interviews with people tend to show normal ppl in China don't really know about it) & 3) is actually cool and good

#social credit is one of those things i use as a benchmark for if u actually are educated on china or just a trend follower going on vibes #note: 2.5 of these are editorialized but have overall correct information #(the articles on chinalawtranslate are editorialized but they also have direct translations of legal documents) #seeking out information that contradicts a sources incentives is also a basic point of critical historiography #so 🤷‍♀️
