I know I'm kinda like the #1 Chicago Hypewoman account on this curséd website but I love this city with all my heart and it loves me back each and every day and I have seen how this city opens her heart up to everyone who comes here. it's a place to build a Home.

as for Why Chicago? Chelsea covered a lot of it. it's the culinary capitol of America, it's extremely possible to live car-free, it's much more affordable, it's *wondrously* beautiful, the people are kind, there is so much culture and so much history everywhere you step.

Fiction isn't an information-delivery system, it's an experience. When we say "reading a Wikipedia summary of a story isn't reading a story," it's not because it excludes plot details, it's because you didn't experience it.

I don't know if it's because social media overrepresents clueless comments or if it's a real trend, but I see way more people treat contradicting information or characters not saying what they mean in a story as "mistakes" and not, like, how fiction works.

Man. I've been thinking a lot about my 2015 trip to Gaymer X lately. It just breaks my heart to think about how many of the amazing, committed, brilliant people that I met around that time are out of an industry that's been fundamentally decimated.

Every comment on this continues to mean the world to me. I really felt like Asepsis represents the start of an exciting new direction, and the nature of the response I'm getting from people makes me sure that I'm right. maidandlion.itch.io/asepsis

Yes, I am really enjoying Armored Core VI, and by enjoying it, I mean spending an evening making a canon-compliant raven-themed emblem, since Ayre calls you "Raven."

i do think it's funny that they just go with the assumption "models will be able to train better models" and not "photocopying the same data over and over turns it to mush"

Last night, I met a woman at a bar who suggested I read "The Woman Destroyed" and I think I will, if for no other reason than it would make an amazing chaser for "The Demolished Man" based on the names alone.

Deeply fascinated by the addition of Discussion Questions after this piece. Not the questions themselves so much as the idea of them.

I've been reading Alfred Bester's "The Demolished Man" and it's absolutely great: Bester has this really Jack Kirby energy where it feels like he's throwing these very visual and create set-pieces at you as fast as you can read them. And the depiction of telepathy is really neat...

Maid & Lion @maidandlion.bsky.social · 30/08/2026

I absolutely love this. The face is very close to what I would have wanted to do with the character art in "Asepsis" if I'd have more time: just abstracting White and Blue further into their colors. Maybe next time.

Katherine out here laying down Truth. I have a lot more boundaries here than I used to when I was on twitter, and I do sometimes miss the way I used to feel like I was actually making friends and expressing myself back in the day? But honestly, it's best for everybody.

This is it. This is the last time I'll ever get this hyped for a retro game release, because there's no 16-bit game I love as much as Terranigma.

Okay well, I guess I'm officially starting a new project to follow up on "Asepsis." Kind of terrified of losing momentum.

Anyway, I've been reading John le Carre lately, and his reputation as the serious, down-to-earth spy novelist left me completely unprepared for the fact that he's often really funny, and his supporting characters are really colorful?

Maid & Lion @maidandlion.bsky.social · 14/08/2026

I have been struggling to find something new to say about "Asepsis" since I released it a month ago. I will say, all the positive reviews have been incredible to see. This is my second visual novel, and I made comics before that, but this is the first time I feel like I'm really reaching people.

This has been one of my absolute favorites from the toxic Yuri jam 2. Delicate pacing, sense of mood, terrific skill with exposition. Also it's about spy stuff and reprogrammable minds and regrets and rebuilding. Highest recommendations.
