the limited edition fluttershy switch
Patreon update time! With the @slarpg OST getting a physical release via Turtle Pals Tapes, I figured now would be a great time to look at the many unused ideas we had for the album art, as well as the process behind the final art!

So after the Sonic Lore Master recently confirmed that IDW is canon to the games...how does it feel knowing that your fursona is canon
i was asked about slarpg’s ancient reverian runes and the three or so missing letters not seen in the game. since all of the runes in the game were already deciphered within days of launch, you know what? here’s the entire character set
unfortunately the conversation about ff16’s genre shift has become so completely consumed by arguments over whether or not it’s “real final fantasy” that you’re just not allowed to dislike it. you’re not allowed to express even mild dissatisfaction over it becoming another big budget prestige playstation action game with a skill tree. the fact that mainline final fantasy is so varied is cited to shut down anyone who dislikes the direction they chose for 16 and call them fake fans. that or people pivot to pedantic genre definition shit like “well what does ‘rpg’ really MEAN, anyway? has ff ever REALLY been a true rpg??” it’s agonizing. i am agonized
i have so many layers of ad blocking and multiple versions of xkit running simultaneously so i honestly had no idea that tumblr had been showing people twitter-style “person you follow liked this post” recommendations for like the last six months. so i’ve done something i should have done years ago and finally made my likes private. i’m free. free to click like on as many pieces of thirsty furry art i like without fear of it being broadcast to the world
posting random opinions to both twitter and tumblr is annoying for different reasons
on twitter it’s mostly issues with the character limit and the ways in which it’s shaped user behavior. you’re extremely limited in how much you can say in one tweet, so you have to make a thread if you have more to say. but people will take single tweets out of context, whether it’s to dunk on you in a quote tweet or argue a point unrelated to what you were actually saying or simply to go “well, actually” because you weren’t able to mention every possible nuance in a single off-the-cuff 280 character post. hell, people will even agree with you, but in a way that makes it clear that they think you’re making a totally different point than the one you’re actually trying to make. it’s very easy for this to spiral into restating your main point multiple times across a thread so that single tweets are harder to take out of context, or just general defensiveness as you try to get ahead of the inevitable replies. the “i love cats - oh, but that doesn’t mean i hate dogs! i like dogs, too!” phenomenon
but also, you can delete your tweets. if you’re sick of a tweet or a thread you can send it to hell. this can be a lifesaver
tumblr doesn’t have the character limit-related issues, but a tumblr post is never truly gone once it’s been reblogged. you can delete a stupid take you posted as a teenager, but people can continue sharing and adding onto it until the sun burns out. and if you go back and edit a post or reblog it to add additional clarification, there’s no guarantee that’s the version that will circulate. both sites have their own distinct methods of psychological torture
