Hey everyone, please consider buying the 2024 itch.io Palestinian Relief Bundle- it's 373 games, game-making assets, tabletop roleplaying games, zines, and comics for a minimum of just 8 USD! They have a goal of 100,000 USD, and as of the time I'm writing this post, they have 8 more days to reach it.

Link will be in the reblog!

Amazing news!! They reached their goal of 100,000 USD! There is now a second goal of 250,000 USD! Remember, this is 373 games, assets, and comics for a minimum of 8 USD- a bundle of items which would normally be ~1,667 USD! Let's reach that second goal as quickly as we reached the first goal!

My favourite OT3 formula is ‘person who suggests the stupid thing/person who does the stupid thing/person who knows the thing is stupid but loves the others anyway’, where the dynamics shift depending on which of the three is filming the stupid thing

For example, with Kannaorise, Rise is the one who thinks its stupid, but she is absolutely filming regardless, while Naoto probably suggested it, and Kanji is the one doing it (though Naoto will absolutely do the thing too) 

Sometimes this post comes back up in my notes and it makes me smile when it does because like… I know it says Kanji/Naoto/Rise and I still stand by that, but I made it like ten days after finishing Endwalker, when the spoiler embargo was still up and anything related to Elpis was a no-go to talk about. I know who I was really thinking about when I wrote this.

The downside of having multiple line and colouring styles is that sometimes I end up with a sketch and no idea which one will be best suited to it

Might fuck around and paint this hythades sketch I’m working on now, but it’ll take 57 years to finish if I do 👀 I have yet to find a brush that makes trying to line the ancient robes as satisfying as I would like, and this is a full-body piece so no cropping them out

You can also donate physical objects in high demand right now, if you have the $ to pay for international shipping prices, and send to this address [10 Avenue Des Messagers, Quartier Les Volcans, Commune de Goma, Ville de Goma, Province du Nord-Kivu, République Démocratique du Congo]. They need just about everything you use in a day to get by.

  • Blankets, pillows & cases, bed sheets
  • Shoes, (All sizes!)
  • Cutlery, pots & pans, plates, cups, mugs (preferably plastic for the cups & plates so they don't break during shipment)

And finally, you can also go volunteer with Focus Congo! Fill out the application here, and email them at info@focuscongo.com, make sure to attach your resumé / CV, so they assign you to work that best suits your capabilities. Foreverjuicebae / juicebaeinthewild is one such volunteer and she posts regularly about the conditions of Congolese people in the DRC.

Fundraiser masterpost

This is a masterpost for the evacuation fundraisers I've vetted so far, a few other fundraisers I find trustworthy but have not been able to vet (inability to communicate with the organizer), and a few semi-completed fundraisers or fundraisers for a different purpose (like house rebuilding, or aid distribution). The numbers next to the names have no significance beyond ease of navigation for me for when I check their progress in the future. You should look at the disclaimers instead and focus on those. Occasionally I will update these with new info, including new fundraisers, and the amount of cash that's been raised. Check in regularly on the original post when you see it being reblogged. In all likelihood once its reached you it's already outdated. Also please don't overlook the Sustainable Aid options near the bottom! The brain drain is already creating problems but having another way of keeping or creating new knowledge and key members of a functioning society is important.

I don’t know if I recreated the exact angles from the benchmark screenshot in game, but even so, the difference in lighting is very notable from any angle! (Also not sure if it makes a difference that the in-game screenshot is the aesthetician version of the character creator). Left is current, right is the benchmark. Mise still looks like herself which is the important part~ They’ve definitely changed the mouth shapes though, that’s more noticeable in the trailer itself but you can see it even in her default expression. My first thought when I saw the new face was ‘oh, she looks happier!’
