Book 14 Kickstarter $60k update: THE DREAMHORSE MAGNET tier unlocked! Final hours!

by David M Willis on May 6, 2025 at 12:28 pm
Posted In: Uncategorized

With 11 hours left in the Dumbing of Age Book 14 Kickstarter, we’ve unlocked the thirteenth magnet and final stretch goal at $60K!  That’s right, it’s THE (not homoerotic at all) DREAMHORSE magnet!  Clocking in at a relatively enormous 5.5″x5″ size!  (that’s 14cmx12.7cm for all you still-free-world people)

Pledge at THE DREAMHORSE MAGNET tier to get a The Dreamhorse magnet along with your book!   (And don’t forget you get a free DOROTHY magnet in there too!)  Or if you’re aiming for The Dreamhorse plus two or four other magnets of your choosing, huzzah, there’s the PICK THREE or PICK FIVE MAGNETS tiers!  And if you want all of them unlocked during this campaign?  Well, there’s a few tiers that hand you COMPLETE MAGNET POWER!

That’s it!  That’s the final update before… THE END!

Finish line at 11:45pm Eastern tonight!

$55K Book 14 Kickstarter update: LIPSYNCING LUCY MAGNET tier unlocked!

by David M Willis on May 4, 2025 at 9:55 am
Posted In: Blog

Three days left in the Dumbing of Age Book 14 Kickstarter, and BOOM!  The Lipsyncing Lucy magnet is unlocked at $55k!  Pledge at the LIPSYNCING LUCY MAGNET tier to get a Lucy magnet along with your book!   (And don’t forget you get a free DOROTHY magnet in there too!)  Or if you’re aiming for Lucy plus two or four other magnets of your choosing, huzzah, there’s the PICK THREE or PICK FIVE MAGNETS tiers!  And if you want all of them unlocked during this campaign?  Well, there’s a few tiers that hand you COMPLETE MAGNET POWER!

Unlocking next at $60K is… the final, thirteenth magnet: THE DREAMHORSE!  It’ll be 5.5″x5″ which would be… probably definitely the largest magnet I’ve ever done.  It won’t be to exact scale with the others, mind you, since that magnet’d be like a foot tall and wouldn’t fit in a book, much less a stamped envelope, but it’ll be to scale with… your BJ Cat magnet, if you have that one.

And just under three days remaining!  This thing shuts down Tuesday night.

Realised that @damnyouwillis.bsky.social's characters might actually work really nicely with the River City Girls style, so until I make some more sprites here's Joyce telling Yoko that omigosh she also has a friend who likes hockey, and has she heard of this team called the 'Leafs'?
Against a background of River City High's entrance doors, a sprite of Joyce from Dumbing Of Age excitedly talking to an unimpressed looking Yoko from the first game.

Nice and normal @internethippo.bsky.social ⋅ 1d
One of the best things about Posting is you never know what obscure preoccupations your followers have. There will be a guy who has followed you for years and never said anything but then one day you disparage applesauce and he activates like a sleeper agent and dedicates his life to destroying you

I'm thinking this Pride about how I've been able to make a whole bundle of pretty unusual life choices with basically no pushback because of people before me who were willing to be the weirdo.

What would be funnier, a Marvel Soundwave who’s blue, or Hasbro releasing a Marvel Soundwave who’s purple right after releasing a printing of the comics where he’s been “corrected” to blue?
