#blog update

[greenplumbboblover]

Just a quick update on my presence on tumblr!

I think I just got the majority of this month's done and over with, so hopefully I can focus on sims-y things again. I haven't really got much time to do creative-y things much as I'd like.

So, with that said, if I follow your blog/story/etc pretty intensively, and I haven't shown any interest at all lately, just know it's not you! It's just me and trying to figure out time.

But! I am however, now the proud owner of a driving licence! And a car! :p Driving alone is such a weird experience, I still can't honestly believe it myself that I can, officially, drive places!

I've also been participating in sewing classes to get my novice skills up a bit, which has gotten me a bit more passionate about "upcycling" EA clothes too :).

Obviously there are other things happening, but let's just say, I'd love to have more hours in a day...

Little note from me.

I am stepping back from writing for Glen/Jake for a while While I don't know Mo I have seen so many of my friends in TGM dealing with this.

So here is the thing, Do not share personal stuff to someone you don't know, I have a handful of friends on here I trust like My bff @cutedisneygrl and Jess @jessicab1991 And T @angelbabyyy99 @nicoline1998enilocin 🥰

They have been there for me in my darkest time and I have been there for them as well.

I have some others I trust but most of who follow me I don't talk much too. I also trust my TGM fandom girls @hangmanbrainrot @roostersforevergirl @roosterforme @hangmansgbaby @senawashere

I do not talk to them much in messages (my inbox is open too) but they are super kind to let me read what they have and even be so kind to answer any questions I may have about this fandom.

But I hope you understand my reason to step back from this fandom while we decided to leave or not, I myself will not be leaving this app I have so many who back me up on here and I thank you for all you guys have done for me.

Hey, all. I'm so sorry about the radio silence for the past few months, and I wanted to drop by real quick to give you all a little update. I'm afraid it's going to be pretty quiet around here for a while, and I've come back to a lot of worried messages so I wanted to keep you all in the loop.

I've recently had some pretty big family things going on - my grandma has been moved into hospice care. It's obviously taking up a lot of my time as I want to spend time with her, and my venom lab has been amazing about letting me pick up as many shifts as I want so I can have a little extra income to help my family with bills. I just don't have a lot of free time right now, and it'll probably stay that way for the immediate future.

I'm okay, and the snakes are all good. We celebrated Miriam's third birthday in February! This blog has always been so much fun to run, and I'm going to try to be back as soon as I can because this has always been such an amazing stress-relief to answer your questions and talk about snakes together. For now, though, the askbox is off (I just don't want things piling up too much while I'm gone), and I wouldn't expect to hear from me for a while.

Hoping to be back soon.

I AM OFFICIALLY CAUGHT UP ON ONE PIECE !!

no posts from the last ten chapters because i got so extremely into it + my keyboard broke so i cant type things up as well atm, but i have many thoughts to get out over the next couple of days!!!! ohhhh my god oh my god oh my god. one piece is good

[larkingame]

hello all! been a moment since we last discussed some things, so I'm coming online to discuss the progress of Larkin's development and make a few announcements :)

over the last ten months, larkin has gone through a lot of changes, some of which I've documented here--but most of it I've kept pretty private. I realized that over the few short years I've been developing the game, I sort of grew an unhealthy dependence on my presence within the 'interactive fiction' community that I really, really needed to take a step back from and break, all in order to ensure that I could enjoy working on what originally started out as a passion project for me.

since july of last year, I've completely reshaped and rewritten how larkin exists as a project, shifted it's genre and started collaborating with a few others to ensure it can be of the highest quality it can possibly be. uptop, i'd like to mention @tapeworrmart who's taken on the immense task of putting together most of the game art for me, @khiita and @ann1a-1 who have both taken on the roles of my editors (and also sounding boards for when I am being absolutely insane) and my production manager phillip, who without his assistance, larkin would barely exist. with that, let's do a progress report. the intended demo of larkin, or what i've taken to calling 'episode one' (yes, i said, 'episode,' more on that in a minute) has stretched to just over 200k words worth of content. it stretches all the way from the earliest versions of larkin's original prologue, to the end of the original chapter two. so far, we've completed 3 out of the intended 20 character portraits, as well as some more art that's slowly been in development.

now, on to the announcements. probably the biggest, and the one I am most ashamed of is--due to the fact that I've been slammed with graduate school work and some other external factors, Larkin as it currently exists is not the best that I think it can be. I'm deeply sorry for this, but I want to ensure that you all are getting the highest quality game you could get from me--and right now, I know it's just not that. Which is why I am unfortunately, pushing the release of the demo back until Friday, June 14th, 2024. Patrons will be granted access to the most recent edit of the demo two weeks earlier on Friday, May 31st 2024. In the meantime, I will be working day and night (quite literally) to get what I'm dropping on you up to par and something that I'm happy with.

To make up for this disappointment, I'm planning on repopulating the blog with a lot of content over the coming months, rewriting new versions of old asks, posting art and short stories.

Next on the agenda and also an equally important announcement. I'm changing the rating of Larkin to Mature or 18+ As I've been writing these past few months, working through a lot of themes and figuring out the story I want to tell, I've found that I think the change in rating is entirely necessary. While I don't think I've ever had that big of a minor fanbase--I think that this is just what I am most comfortable doing. There has consistently grown a little bit more of gore, and trauma exploration, which is the main reason for this change in rating, but, this does allow for the inclusion of something that I've been toying with since the intial release of the game. There is going to be explicit sex scenes in this new version of Larkin--all of which, you the player are able to opt out of, or completely avoid if that's something you want--but I just thought a little announcement would be warranted. This does not mean however, I am comfortable with answering thoroughly explicit asks or getting unsolicited sexual messages. The goal is to keep this game blog mainly tame.

Please respect this boundary of mine.

Third thing to be announced. I've also changed the format in which Larkin will be released. Rather than around the twenty-five chapters in one of a series of 'Books'/'Games', Larkin will be released episodically over four 'seasons' with eight-ten episodes of around 200k-250k words each (though, this is just an early estimate--they could grow longer, as I'm basing this purely off the demo/Episode One)

Finally and a little bit of a fun note: there are now twelve romance options throughout larkin, five male, three female, one non-binary and three gender-selectable. With those upcoming asks, you'll hear more about each in the coming days :)

With all that being said, I wanted to lastly thank all of you for supporting me over the years and putting faith and your interest in this project. truly, the support of all of you means the world to me and I can't wait to share more of larkin with you all.

thank you 💖

Reposting My Stuff

Less than a week ago I've received a message in my inbox asking if they could make tiktok edits of my work, and a few days later I recieve a message telling me my work has been found on tiktok. The message had the person's account tagged so I'm not answering the ask directly as I do not want to platform them or send harassment their way.

I have not given permission for my work to be reposted to tiktok. I haven't responded yet as my inbox is pretty full and I am pretty busy - if you haven't received permission from an artist to share their work do not go ahead with reposting!

No response is not consent! I have been considering allowing people to do this as I have no interest in making a tiktok account, but after this blatant lack of regard for my consent I am not okay with people reposting my stuff to tiktok. If you see my stuff on tiktok, I did not give permission for it to be there!

The only other platform I post on is Instagram, @professorcalculusstanacc

I put a lot of work into my animation, so if I come across as strong please understand why!

It’s Kirby Time - Book 9 English Translation + An Update on Blog Happenings

HAPPY NEW YEAR!! IT'S HEEEEERE!! A truly adorable story about Kirby and Meta Knight deciding to spend some alone time and the activities they like to do during that time. Featuring beautiful illustrations painstakingly cleaned up by myself, this one is a must-read for fans of the relationship between Kirby and Meta Knight. Read the full thing at the links below:

Imgur

MangaDex

Google Drive

...But wait, there's more! Because the illustrations are so pretty, here's a link to a folder containing just those illustrations with no text at all! https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/19z8WLah-ZGES2jnyZOILJKc9kE75Wvs9?usp=drive_link (I'm probably also gonna make a post featuring all these images on their own soon.)

Finally, I have an update regarding the blog. tl;dr, I'm definitely gonna keep doing translations, but the rate at which they are completed and uploaded is most likely going to change soon. I don't know by how much or even if it will be positive or negative. For a more detailed explanation, click the Keep Reading.

So, I got a job! *audience cheers* But the job does not involve translating Kirby manga. *audience "aww"s* Ordinarily I wouldn't get more specific than that since I try to avoid revealing too much about my personal life, but in this case the explanation won't make much sense unless I do, so: The job entails working on fishing boats. This means that there isn't really a set daily schedule or even a weekly schedule. When the boats are fishing, I'm working, and when they're not, I have next to nothing to do.

I've been told by many people that I should expect a lot of down time for that reason, so I'll definitely have time to work on translations. However, I can't predict exactly how much I get and I also most likely won't have an internet connection on the boat. All this is to say that I literally do not know how this is going to affect the rate of translations on this blog beyond just, "It's going to change." I could find that I have so much down time on the boat that translating is the only thing that keeps me sane and I actually get more done. I could find that the boat I'm on is a super-busy one and I get barely any time at all. And regardless of which one of those happens, I won't be able to actually upload anything until the boat gets back into port, which is entirely dependent on how long it takes for the boat to catch all the fish it needs.

The job doesn't start for a couple weeks yet, so I'm gonna try to fulfill a few more requested chapters before then. Once again: I'm definitely going to keep translating, I just don't know how often I'll actually be able to do it. So enjoy this translation, look forward to more coming in the future, and please wish me luck both in my work and in getting time to translate!

greetings birders! after giving it some thought, I've decided to try and resume this blog.

I can't commit to any solid posting schedule right now, so updates will be a little inconsistent, but in the meantime I'll open my mailbox for requests as I try and pick up where I left off. Some pages such as the FAQ and blog theme might also be updated.

Please look forward to it! ^_^

Hey all, been seeing a few TERFs in my notes lately and just wanted to put out a quick statement - that is never going to be tolerated here.

This blog is run by a gay, trans Jewish man, and I'm committed to keeping this an explicitly queer affirming and inclusive space. TERFs get blocked automatically, and that goes for any other kind of bigotry. Racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia - I won't engage with it and it's not tolerated on this blog. You can find a different blog if you're in the business of hatred, there's no space for it here.

Back to our regularly-scheduled content!

Sadly I think Im going to put a hold on Slime Girl Saturday's in march, its a lot of extra work to find all the slime girls and I just dont think I can keep up the quality anymore.
