Mom sent me an Emmy pic to cheer me up, so I thought I’d share with my fedi friends for #caturday! Little sunbeam baby!

This story is WILD, and frankly kind of shocking.

(On a side note, this is the first time I can recall ever seeing actual deep journalism from IGN)

I’m hosting a Tokusatsu Ficathon over on my Dreamwidth Journal!

It’s welcome to all tokusatsu series and films. From Kamen Rider, Super Sentai, Power Rangers, Ultraman, Kaiju, and even the most obscure Showa-Era toku out there you can think of.

This round will run from August 22nd to October 31st. There will be more rounds in the future too, more details to come on that when the time arrives.

Anon comments are on, so you aren’t required to have a DW account to prompt or fill. (Just note IP addresses are logged.) This event is 18+ only since it welcomes all ratings, so please only take part if you’re 18+.

More details on how this event works are over here: https://www.dreamwidth.org/captcha?returnto=https://linky.dreamwidth.org/172883.html

The PS4 does not want to die.

PS3 dropped from $599 to $299 in 3 years. PS4 took 2-3 years to reach $299. 4 years into the PS5's lifecycle, we've only seen a price increase.

Considering the rising cost of living, it's easy to understand why many players are sticking with their still-capable older consoles instead of upgrading.

There are anyway no exclusive games and indies will keep releasing on PS4. This generation would be a flop without backwards compatibility.

Idk how many people on this instance are furries, but just in case passing along the info: #FurAffinity has been compromised, do not log in or even open the website until further notice. The only reliable source of information right now is their official discord server. Boosted a bunch of things about this if you wanna read more.

Probably relevant life and body positivity tip from a sewist, pattern drafter and seamstress:
The clothes are the problem. Please try to remember that you are not the wrong shape, size or dimensions. If the shirt doesn't button closed the shirt is too narrow, you're not too wide. If the dress sags at the back it's the dress pattern, not your ass. Absolutely nobody makes clothes that are Actually Your Size unless you custom order or make them yourself. Even then fitting is a skill and an art!

You're not the problem, the clothes are.

OK, looks like Philippine English already solved the “gender-neutral alternative to ‘sir’ and ‘madam’” problem

Dalit, Bahujan and Adivasi writers are INCREDIBLY underrepresented in English publishing, especially in science fiction / fantasy / weird fiction. Help us switch that up a little!

We don't have hard peer-reviewed data to back up these graphs. But if you know something about caste and Indian surnames, and if you thumb through a few Indian anthologies or catalogs from the average publisher, we think you'll find they're pretty accurate.
