@npub1aum…5jx0 Actual answer is regular book, but I'd get a mechanical raven at least once for the novelty if I could.

Heard the timeline was in desperate need of a baby wild hamster right now. Got here as quickly as I could.

#GameDev and #Gaming folks of this part of the internet, would anybody be up for doing a test run of my hobby-project game sometime in the next 3 weeks? I could do with a couple more testers: if interested just direct message me your email as a reply to this. I'm looking for people ideally willing to spend a few hours on testing. Boosts welcome!
For more information on the game, see:

@npub1cel…pmxm Huh, seems to be working now, I've just tried it again. That's weird, not sure what the issue was, sorry!

@npub1cel…pmxm Hiya! Your obsidianurbexphotography.com security certificate appears to be out of date or installed wrong - it's giving a bunch of errors when I try and access the site.

I'm kind of darkly amused by the spectacle of the European fascist party collapsing shortly before the European elections because the German Fascists were too Nazi for the French Fascists.

In what may constitute definitive proof that I am my mother's son, I just sent in some feedback to Supergiant Games about Hades II because every time I play it's jarring for me that their character artist didn't do Arachne (I don't think "Arachne appears in Greek myth game" is too big a spoiler here) with a cephalothorax, and spiders with the legs coming off the abdomen just look weird to me.
I do not think they will act on this feedback, but at least I've said it.
