hello! if you don't know me, I'm Jessica, and I help with support for the OBS Project, as well as helping to make space for queer people in gaming with FWC + HRG

@mirzaba Right, I was going to say, we are currently looking around at options for texture work on the game. I don't make final hiring decisions but if you have a link to the portfolio we can take a look. (If that's in your pinned toots, disregard link)
