This is Bungalo. She uses that face to get what she wants. It works unbelievably well. 12/10 would never say no to

a little solid-black puppy rides in a shopping cart in a pet store, but she’s not looking at any of the excitement around her. she’s looking straight at you, her eyes wide and ears dropped low, with her front two paws hooked over the shopping cart’s handle. she looks like a very sad little bat, and we’d give her the world if she asked.

Fellow storytellers: what’s your favourite tool for organising your worldbuilding notes into a shareable Lore Bible? I’ve heard of Plottr, World Anvil, and Campfire - are there other notable apps I should be aware of? Any tips welcome! #dnd #dm #writing #gamedev #narrative #worldbuilding #lorebible

It’s not pretty but it’s a great warning to never vote for the LNP who are this country’s version of that division, religion and hate 😳👎. We have more choice in Australia. #auspol

Every month, I archive my work. That includes any videos of demos, any design & prototyping files, research documentation related to the work, and any decks I’ve presented. It’s important to maintain this archive because it enables you to tell your story. In this market, you just never know.

Creativity is like a houseplant, not an endless well. You need to seek out sunlight, water, and nutrients in art, shows, music, experiences, and more to tend to it. And just like plants it has its dormant and active periods and you may not seem improvement for some time.

for sure!! what they said was to emphasize that being trans gender is at its core for anyone who transes the gender binaries in any way. the interviewer was this older guy named allen who always wore his hair in a ponytail and they talked about even something as simple as that is transing the binary
