the rage is load bearing

And a second gift, this one for a close friend!

this map is a piece of propaganda from 1921. honestly what shocked me about it was how little of Australia is marked out as “uninhabited”. I have seen maps shared around on this website that basically mark out the entirety of non-coastal Australia as “empty”. fucking colonialists from 1921 were more generous than some of you

the history of colonial Australia is a history of “taming the untameable land”. this has been reinforced through narratives that this country is:

inherently dangerous

uninhabitable

empty

And the Stellar's sea lion, which are WAY bigger and live in Washington, British Columbia, and Alaska

I know I've not been very quiet about this especially here on Tumblr (because this is the only social media site I actually enjoy using) BUT my new game The Museum of Everything now has a Steam page!

The Mona Lisa is missing! Sleuth through a sprawling space museum, read the past through psychic abilities and unravel an interstellar art caper in this cosy, gas‑lamp mystery.

her story is a beautiful trans allegory. her story is about being fat and being brown. her story (like many of sam's pcs) is about being jewish. her story is about young motherhood and conservatism. her story is about womanhood and what it means to be a woman. her story is about loving your family. her story is about resenting your family. her story is about alcoholism and overcoming addiction.

That's right everyone, it's May 4th, which means it's time to celebrate that time Sherlock Holmes threw a mathematics professor from a high place!

In celebration, you can get Gayming Award-nominated cosy mystery Sherlock Holmes game The Beekeeper's Picnic half price on Steam and Itch!

It is the 1920s, and in a sleepy Sussex village, beekeeper and former world's greatest detective Sherlock Holmes is trying to arrange a pleasant clifftop picnic for his lifelong companion Dr Watson. The only problem is that a series of mysteries keep getting in the way!
