@andrewmaclean.bsky.social Hello! I was wondering if you're selling the digital version of the Agatha comic you kickstarted anywhere, or if it was (and forever will be) exclusive to that campaign?

@oliviawaite.com Hi, I just finished The Hellion's Waltz, and I wanted to thank you for a lovely book, but in particular, the acknowledgements section at the end. I'm tearing up here at your beautifully encouraging words; very much needed just as much now as they were at the time you wrote them.

low-key one of the most insidious dumb guy beliefs of the last few decades to gain widespread purchase has been this notion that demonstrating pro-social behavior in the hope that others would notice and mirror it, one of the fucking building blocks of any kind of society, is somehow ‘fake’.

@philsalv.bsky.social I apologise for this egregious flattery, but I'm listening to the Cyan episode of the Video Game History Hour and I wanted to ask: did you know before going there that you were so hecking good at audio only reporting? Seems a different skill set from podcasts/livestream hosting

@gamehistoryorg.bsky.social Does the discord access tier of your patreon also let me listen to bonus episodes of the podcast? I know I should probably just expect the higher tiers to offer all the stuff from the lower tiers, but it not being listed gave me pause

It's hard to know what to say or whether it's even worth adding to the doom - what I will say is buy your trans friends' weird zine, their album, their art game - buy them a beer or a soda or a meal - give them some ko-fi money for doing absolutely nothing. We gotta protect trans kids and adults.

Yup. Microsoft automatically switched me to the $99.99/year version with Spicy Autocomplete. You have to go all the way through "cancel subscription" to be presented these options and get the $69.99/year one you actually chose.

Cosigned. Demon's Tilt is in my all-time top ten. I need all y'all to buy this bonkers-looking sequel on Steam so the devs can afford to port it to consoles

I need authors to understand that the money you "save" using AI for covers or audiobook narrators is lost by people boycotting your shit for directly undercutting artists in your own community.
