I should clarify for the uninitiated: I am what is known in personal finance circles as a "credit card person"
I am not going into debt here, rather I applied for and got that credit card they shill on every American Airlines flight and have been using it like a debit card.

almost tricked myself into doing a minimum viable product for Revision B in my art school portfolio.
if the battle system wasn't such a fuck I'd be able to get away with it but sadly the battle system is required for it to really function.

what cis people fail to understand about transphobia is that it's not "treating trans men as women and trans women as men," it's "constantly occupying the status of Third-Sexed Unhuman who can be gendered in whichever way is most convenient at any given moment"

it's very weird that I described handing out physical copies of Revision B as a "guerilla marketing campaign" when this used to be standard practice in the shareware days (I think, I was still a baby in the shareware days)
I'm trying so hard to get my shit together. if the con happens again this year I want to do a guerilla marketing thing for mindshift (assuming I can get my mental health under control enough to get the demo done)

I hate that people who hear I want to minor in game design in college act like I'm telling them that I want to go into computer science.
like, no, game design is not the same as game development.
it's like saying an architect is the same as someone who physically builds the building.
