Urgent: Help Us Not Get Screwed
Anyone who follows us has seen us screaming from the hill-tops about our current crowdfunding campaign for Aether Beyond the Binary (17 aetherpunk stories! Outside the gender binary main characters!). We've only got 50 hours left...and we just got screwed.
Our Anthology Kickstarter is being scammed.
About two hours ago, with us still roughly $1,500 from our goal, we got a junk pledge for almost $2,000. This pushed us into being marked as "funded" but there is zero chance it's a real pledge, it's from a shell account marked as being in Turkey. This kind of money doesn't just fall like a miracle into the laps of small business like ours.
The timing on this attack is devastating. The final 48 hours of a campaign are absolutely critical, especially for one as close to meeting our goal as we are. We were very likely to hit our target, but doing so was going to require appeals to y'all that started with "hey, we're so close, please help spread the word." Further, the campaign has hundreds of followers who will get a notification at the 48 hour mark, and many who might have backed to help get us to the finish line will now think "oh, they're there, they don't need me," and not back. Meanwhile, one of two things will happen with the spam pledge: either it will get removed by Kickstarter, which could take hours or a day+, totally nuking us during this crucial window, or it won't get removed until the payment bounces post-campaign, at which point we won't actually have enough money to do fulfillment.
Either way, we are fucked.
Please, please don't let these dipshits ruin the love and passion that 30+ people have poured into this project for over a year.
Our campaign IS NOT FUNDED, and it won't be without help. I'm begging, help spread the word about how we're getting screwed, and help spread the word about Aether Beyond the Binary (visit the link for so much info!) so that we can get enough real pledges to fund this project we've poured our hearts and souls into.
SUPPORT THE QUEER ANTHOLOGY KICKSTARTER FOR AETHER BEYOND THE BINARY (with your pledges or with signal boosts!)

Unexpected Guests Chapter 10: Page 18
First / Previous / Next
Undyne's arrival has put a dent in Gaster's plan, but was it enough to change his course entirely? It remains to be seen...
Look for the next update on August 10th!

Honestly, when anime onlys say they don’t like or even hate Kabru I sort of understand it. The anime doesn’t have his full story yet and it doesn’t really do him justice. Before I read the manga I actually didn’t like him either. I went through like 5 stages to get to being a Kabru lover lmao it was like a whole process like this:
Stage 1: Who is that?
Stage 2: I don’t like him.
Stage 3: Actually, this guy is chill.
Stage 4: I like him, but I don’t like him that much. I only have normal feelings about him. (Denial)
Stage 5: I love him in every way possible. He means so much to me. I dream of cupping his face in my hands, pressing our noses together, looking into his eyes, and kissing him while I run my hands through his hair. I want to trace shapes on his skin. I want to cook him meals. I want to write poems about him. I want to see him flourish. I want to make gorgeous paintings of him on my walls. He makes my heart race. I have over a thousand photos of him saved to my phone. He is all I can think about. I would do his dishes for him. I’d even wash his spoons and his weirdly shaped cups that are difficult to get the wash cloth in and the gross dishes with some food still on them. I love him dearly. I have never felt this way about a man before. He’s such an interesting character and he’s so charming. I’m in love with him.
