People against piracy fail to realize that no, I can’t just ‘buy it.’ They stopped making DVDs and Blu-Rays. They’re barely offering digital copies for download. I am not spending money I could use for food or bills to pay for a subscription service just so I can always have access to a beloved piece of media. Especially not when the service will remove media on a whim without concern for how the loss of access to that piece will make its artistic conservation nigh impossible.
For example, I recently learned that Disney+ had an original film called Crater. It’s scifi, family friendly, and seems cool - I would love to buy it as a holiday gift for my little brother! But: it’s exclusive to D+ and THEY REMOVED IT LITERALLY MONTHS AFTER ITS RELEASE.
The ONLY way I can directly access this film is through piracy. The ONLY available ‘copies’ of this film are hosted on piracy websites. Disney will NEVER release it in theaters, or as something to buy, and it may NEVER return to the streaming service. It will be LOST because we aren’t allowed to purchase it for personal viewing. If I can’t pay to own it, I won’t pay for the privilege of losing it when corporate decides to put it in a vault.
So yes, I’m going to pirate and support piracy.
Edit: if you are able, use $5 you would otherwise use for a streaming subscription to donate to a GazaFunds campaign.

Rose is usually the mastermind for who meets with her, though. lol. lmao, even

popping back in for a couple seconds, because I am obsessed with these two throwaway characters from the last new year's bit. I need to know more about this fancy overdramatic theater kid and IT nerdling's more-likely-than-you'd-think friendship.
(brb, building an entire mental headcanon around these random characters who will literally never appear again. they have a whole sitcom together...in my heart.)

The Steam Summer Sale is finally upon us, and BOTH Scarlet Hollow and Slay the Princess are 25% off! Buy 'em together in our lil' bundle and get AN EXTRA discount for a combined THIRTY SIX percent off! That's more than fifteen bucks of cold hard savings.
This is also probably the only 25% off discount Slay the Princess is getting this year! We wanted to do something special for the Summer Sale, but it's back down to 20% after this so we don't the hard workin' folks at Serenity Forge who are publishing the console version. (And because it won't be long until the game is THIRTY FIVE PERCENT bigger)
So even if you're waiting to play until the free expansion drops this Fall, if you're a PC Gaming-head, you'll be better off picking it up now for the extra savings and just waiting to play.
Anyways this has been an amazing week. All of YOU have been amazing. Play both of our games. Especially if you already really like one. You'll probably really like the other too!

new more readable commissions post for my pinned! (well. hopefully)
obligatory artist backstory part of the post: im miles, im a hobbyist artist who can't work a 'normal' job due to disability! i'm on the disability program where i live but its not a super substantial amount (rent alone is just under half of what i get monthly, not including food/phone bill). basically: commissions help me have a life outside of just 'surviving' and have... like. leisure and joy. i'll live without them, but they help a lot!
feel free to dm me here, on my art twitter, or ko-fi, with any and all inquiries! im happy to answer any questions you might have!!!
