A semi-nomadic online traveller from Verdigris, archiving, connecting and creating as much as he can.
Also a budding architect, visual artist, and demoscene musician at heart.
You can also see me down Masto-raft at @jupritona, and Fanlore (JWPH) and Newgrounds (that1verdeian).
I would also like to add that she’s also in the game Sayonara Wild Hearts as the Narrator herself, as a sort of last-minute addition by the developers at Simogo.
Down the chats of the official Fanlore discord server lately (of which I have been in for the past few months), they’ve been discussing this kind of transgression alongside the HP fanfic debacle (specifically, the Manacled one, of which upon its reworked professional release by its fanfic author gained enough controversy within and outside the fandom that it warranted for a wiki article on its own).
Also, one editor has suggested using “illegal fic binding” in place of the term "illegal “fanbinding” as the latter connotes the non-profit work with a for-profit tone in a negative way. Another has noted that het (in other words, F/M) fanfics sell much more than other pairing-centered ones, and attract more outsiders willing to buy that much for an illegal fic-binded copy, in disrespect to those original authors; throw the franchise copyright shenanigans in, and there we have the entire panfandom world at a crossroads battlefield against those recklessly profiteering for the sake of it.
Also, as a side note, there’s also this recently-created wiki article section about said fannish controversy:

Hey, I know that from OMORI—specifically, the Weeping Willow joke quest.
Here, too. My feed’s all about architecture, random ramblings, things of nature, music, and of course, Fediverse stuff.
I feel it pleasant to just curate that raftbox of mine to whatever interests I actively do have at the moment, without the vitriolic banter and doomscrolling most other social media platforms have harbored as of late.
As @Drusas also noted below, just discovering and enjoying new things, while also finding stories of humane positivity, everything nature and greenery, and listening to trackertunes that are well-crafted and have a strong storyline involved.
@HeartyBeast Jokes on you, I already figured out what story’s on its surface (except for spoiler-territory stuff), as well as having indirectly encountered this banger of a rhythm game myself, through two rip vids on both SiIvaGunner and TimmyTurnersGrandDad several weeks ago, of all things.
And Sweater Month too? How delightfully festive of a side hobby, regardless of climate location.
And now, it’s not just news-producing sites; a while ago, I tried to look for the dimensions for the toilet and bath sections for a typical Filipino home, and lo and behold, two identical GAI cobblin’ sites appeared on top of the search results!
This is just the latest of a barrage of instances whereupon justice does not compromise at all, regardless of circumstance or side, and moreso upholds the rights of the truly hapless, as well as those who continually campaign for humanity’s good, over those who campaign only for themselves and their ill-gotten wealth and power.
