Hello 👀 After quietly rigging Live2D models for the last two years, I have finally begun on the last model for our vampire game Red Kiss, and I want to document the creation process here. Been really looking forward to rigging them ever since designing them 4 (!!) years ago.

Gamescom lovelies staying north of Cologne! I'm sorry. Here is the most condensed info I have (on left) and the most definitive overview I could find (on right. SEV means it's a bus.)

Love has never needed permission from labels 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 My emptiness of gender lets me see that clearly. Anxiety tightens around transgender lives right now. Why must their chosen bonds still pass through someone else’s gate? Why is the soul they claim treated as a request instead of a right?

Opening the news and politicians are falling over themselves to stock up on police, toughen sentences, getting rid of juvenile law. Cool cool cool when's the news going to start reporting on the universal budget cuts on queer support networks, bans on drag storytime, the government's homophobia?

The CDU does not want queer people protected by the constitution, they don't even consider us full humans worthy of respect, but they do want to protect us and consider us too stupid to know what truly keeps us safe. So that tracks!

It's only Tuesday after the attack on Saturday and the CDU and FDP are foaming at the mouth to punish and persecute the evil other while making fun of what queer orgs have been demanding for years to improve their safety.

People need to understand that queer people grew up having to hide and being harmed by authority for being different. We don't take kindly to a tragedy targeted at us being used to increase policing, surveillance, and xenophobia.
