Reni tests out a fox form design and gets Kei's opinion on it, suggested by Kinipshun! I based the fur pattern off of a cross fox for the black and orange coloration that Reni is known for.

Yesterday, @adventurex.bsky.social was mad enough to give @wednesdays-game.bsky.social and I (Florent) the floor, letting us spend a full 30 minutes trying to depress an otherwise awesome, sweet and enthusiastic crowd of gamedevs and games enthusiasts. Having spaces like that is priceless.
Let's get depressing!

A Stripe rep hung up on me when they realized they told me they're disallowing "LGBTQ content" in transactions, so either they're slipping up more or just being more honest about their real intentions.
Keep the pressure up, keep calling, maybe start recording what they're telling you.
