www.chuapp.com/article/2915... had a lovely chat about using Xiaohongshu (RedNote) to promote Bad Magpie and how supportive everyone on the app has been about the game (plus me unexpectedly trying to explain "chinamaxxing") thank you to "my new chinese friends" 🫶

Excerpt from the article: “No matter where we are, we all have a lot in common. So it’s wonderful to see this game resonate with people on the other side of the world.” Shortly after the release of Bad Magpie, Susie went on vacation. During her vacation, she was still replying to comments on Xiaohongshu (a Chinese social media platform). When a friend asked who she was chatting with, she said, “My new Chinese friends.”

Any folk on TikTok had this before when posting original content? I appealed it but no luck. Frustrating as the video is our own content. Just reposted it with a short TikTok voiceover/text at the start (which I think helps) but trying to avoid it happening again

Ran an unconference yesterday at @creativedundee.bsky.social’s Tending To/gether event organised by the amazing @jencollins.bsky.social! We had roundtables, zine making, AMAs, playlist building, debates and more! Thank you to all of the participants for being so open, collaborative & generous 🫰🏻

made a new thing on downpour that I’m gonna update whenever I wear an outfit that I like ⭐️ downpour.games/~susie/outfits

a screenshot of a collage made on the app downpour. In the middle a bit of graphic paper says ‘outfit diary by Susie’ and around it are various well dressed cartoon characters and sparkly star stickers. The background is bright blue

A screenshot from downpour of an outfit. The date is on the top right and outfit details on the bottom left. There are two pictures of Susie wearing the same outfit, one with jacket on and one with jacket off. She’s cut out and pasted on top of lined paper, on the paper there are also holographic stickers

I made this at the weekend! This was for a collage poetry workshop for the current Virtual Textual exhibition at Phoenix Leicester Been working on the events programme for the exhibition run (while also having fun making) ✨

A collages piece of poetry on an old map. The poem is made up of cut up words from different pieces of literature. It reads:
towering we formed
woods
spruce Birch Elm
Beech Ash pine
together
surrounding ourselves
belonging while
things splintered for
our young

A poetry collage made from a variety of cut up pictures and text. Photos of landscapes and a photo of a snowdrop, pixel art of trees, flowers and sky. Text reading ‘tree-top’ ‘the Pine is’ ‘falcon’ ‘glen’ ‘loch’ and ‘seedling’ are pasted on top of the pieces together landscape collage, indicating a rough geography.
