MY HEART

looking through your art, this is amazing stuff- you captured this modern optimistic, yet realistic scifi feeling!

Thats the thing for me, it solidly is in that camp- but i feel like it gets fairly soulslike, which even tonally matches hinakos emotional plot, but the game requires me to stretch fairly far to fit it in at least mechanically. The story is just another smaller extra stretch, solid as it was

Nic Boone @nicboone.bsky.social · 13h

Solid game and story. Like actually loved it. Im a little conflicted about the marketting but its super hard to navigate that because the game is undeniably good and well written

that worldview is just "im in power-may as well be god. obey me or die". There isnt really anything we can do to change their mind or argue with them-they are just an enemy;of us as people and as a class. We are really only guilty of our continued misguided pacifism and attempt to understand them.

You paid for a service which didnt provide, therefore, it makes sense that should be charged back, the same way you charge back on an order that never arrives, or is incorrect.

Nic Boone @nicboone.bsky.social · 23h

Genuinely if you took out student loans and did not find work which meets the following standards, you shouldnt pay it back.

- pays enough to pay for your living expenses near your place of work, and for the price of the monthly payment
- is a job in the specific field you went to school for

the way they make the time after the revolutionary war and the civil war sound before you get into advanced courses makes it sound like everyone had a pleasant chat for like, 50 years.

Nic Boone @nicboone.bsky.social · 2d

no, they basically do nothing but teach propaganda until you enter college level courses- maybe AP if you are lucky. Democracy is seen as some kind of concept done in an ideological bubble within some range of liberal acceptability. If we were truly taught democracy, we would learn about socialism

Something in american history we could learn from is the period of time where civilian mobs and occaisionally military would just round up all the politicians and put them in a room and force them to resolve an issue until it met the standards and demands of the people who locked them in there.

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.   It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

It cannot be made clearer.

If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

Hello I'm Qsy, a very French artist drawing historical and NSFW art to support my crippling croissant addiction.
If that's something you're thinking of helping with, you should check out my Patreon @ Qsy and get access to my work in real time.
Right wingers can fuck right off ! .w.b

Visual pun on the double meaning of Goth as the Migration Era people who invaded the Roman Empire and the moody fashion movement that gets people horny.
She is a big tiddy goth girlfriend wearing a lamellar armor corset over furs and a black dress, with a seax and an axe held on her belt, pointing cheekily at her neck with the caption "Snap my Torque"

A chasseur and a voltigeur for Trench Crusade.
The chasseur is wearing a reseda green uniform with a coat of plate on her chest and maille chausses on her legs, with red pants and epaulettes. Her helmet is reinforced with a large bulletproof visor. She is holding her long barreled RSC1918 with one hand and wielding a francisca with the other.
The voltigeur is bare chested, with steel blue cavalry pants, leather boots and gaiters and a hussar pelisse worn over her shoulder. her guts are protected by a sheepskin and an Adrian breastplate, and her face is obscured with a camo hood. She is holding a blade in each hand and carrying a number of others on her person.

A cover for the fictional magazine Tomboy BiMonthly done for Pride Month, headed by two little pride flags for transgender and non-binary people. It features my characters Chandelle on the left and Modeste on the right. Chandelle is sitting down and wearing a navy suit with a dull gold tie and matching spats, with a checkered vest combining both colors. Her hair is cropped short in her usual haircut and she has bigass eyebrows because she's gender like that. She is smiling up at Modeste, who is leaning on a bar counter. She is wearing her full dress 5th Hussard uniform, which is made up of a sky blue dolman and kepi with gold buttons and white braiding, a black trimmed navy pelisse also with white braiding, red and navy pants and leather riding boots and gaiters. She has a Mle1882 revolver holster strapped across her chest and she is holding one glove in her hand, with the other naked one resting on the butt of her saber which I've got to say is pretty hot. Don't hate.
The overall color palette is warm with many shades of gold. The bottom of the picture is filled with a frame quote from a real book, the 'Illustrated Book of Manners: a Manual of Good Behavior and Polite Accomplishments' published in 1866, which explicitly says it's fine for women to have male gender expression actually.

The Halloween picture for 2024 featuring a Vehmic blood witch. She is wearing a khaki green French military greatcoat with a matching conical witch hat, which has camo streamers hanging down from the rim all bearing an eye symbol. The coat is covered with leather webbing from which hang down pouches, but also many blood filled syringes, bags and valves, a bayonet frog and darkly painted grenades adorned with demonic symbols. On her lapel is an Artillerie Spéciale pin of a salamander breathing fire inside a wreath.
Her sleeves are pulled up and you can see small scars on her arms and neck. An IV is running from her many syringes into the crook of her right arm, which is holding in a gloved hand a horned skull whose forehead bears the SATOR square engraved into it. Her other hand is holding a Mle1874 Gras bayonet, point dripping blood in a wide arc.
The picture's header reads SATOR OPERA TENET, which has been considered by occultists/quacks to translate roughly as "the Creator maintains his works".
