Misericorde is PERFECT for the spooky season, the vibes and atmosphere are unsettling and occasionally disturbing (it's not even strictly horror but it is spooky) and the suspense... it is SO GOOD!!!! 🗡️go get your season-appropriate nun yuri

It's fall sale season once again. A perfect time to cozy up with a good book, or perhaps a series of visual novels about a nun who got stuck in the pear wiggler store.steampowered.com/bundle/71001...

Art featuring the main character of Misericorde, Hedwig, wearing a nun's habit with soft light cutting diagonally behind her. A small speck of blood is visible on her wimple

i hate how my webhosting prices go up every year but this is yet another reminder why i will continue paying for my own website. nobody can close it on a whim, restrict it, put ads on it or take it away from me because it belongs to me and i can do whatever i want with it.

I wanted to see what Webtoon's translation feature had to offer, and I lowkey assumed it would be an AI translation, but they wanted a lot of information up front that made me think maaaaybe a human would be involved. This is a sloppy mess. I wonder if I can make them stop?

Mellifera is one of the main characters in That Bitch Stabbed Me. She joined a cult to resurrect an ancient god and hired Noelle and Lucia to help her with that cause. She also has a special relationship with Stranger, as she is the only person that knows what Stranger's real name is #art #TBSM #OC

i've been looking for music to use for my VN and so many artists will say "no AI was used!" but still using AI generated images and descriptions and i cannot emphasize how much this erodes any trust that the music itself is not genAI even if it is human made!!! like what are you doing

Someone asked me what will happen with the currently patrons-only Chapter 3 of TBSM. The answer is that it will be released for everyone to read once I've made some tangible progress with the VN version. When will that be? Don't know yet!

Maarika @themaarika.bsky.social · 08/08/2026

Alright I'm going to have to adapt the last 10 or so pages of the TBSM comic for the VN. This seems easy at first because I already have the script and images but actually no. The pacing and flow in a comic is way different than it would be in a VN....
