The Lovers (also known as the Filipino fish yuri short film) has updated to announce that they're hoping to hold a test screening for backers on Q1 2026. It will be another year before they post it publicly on Youtube as they're planning to premiere it in a bunch of international festivals first. I hope I don't miss the Kickstarter screening omg.

Gongsam, the creator of my fav manhwa Goldiluck, has been serializing a BL manhwa called Killer Whale Protocol. The English translation is set to come out next month on Manta (which sadly no longer has a monthly subscription option, maybe because it was too unprofitable).

Ever since Wingspan launched its Asia expansion last month, I've been playing it again and I'm even beginning to understand the game, or at least the goals. XD I can't express how much joy the Asia expansion has given me—I'm not one to care about cultural representation in media, but this one made me feel all the things, so I guess I feel represented by... birds. 😂 I learned from the Chinese audio track that hummingbird is 蜂鳥, which is cute, and mourning dove is still the same, 哀鴿. I'm actually considering getting the other expansions now that I'm playing for more than the bird noises and music.
