September 2026 MegaDrop: Meet The Jock

Hey everyone, September's MegaDrop is ready. We have 1,412 images across both vaults, packed into 3.37 GB. No videos in this month's boxes, but quite a lot of hunks. And this time, one of them is getting ready to talk back.

There are familiar faces, different styles, a little summer still hanging around, and more of the world I keep building behind the scenes. I picked 50 images for this post, with something from every day of September. Twelve are right here for everyone, and the other 38 are below for registered MightyBrawnies and 💪MightyPros.

September's boxes are ready

The BrawnyAi SFW archive contains 746 images, no videos, and 1.78 GB across 5 ZIP parts. Eligible members visiting the companion Side Door will find its separate archive of 666 images, no videos, and 1.59 GB across 4 ZIP parts. Those are separate collections. The 3.37 GB figure is the combined release, not the size of either vault on its own.

💪MightyPros can open the BrawnyAi Secret Vault below. The companion archive has its own access requirements and its own door. Pick the collection you came for, and let me know if a link gives you trouble.

A small reminder about timing. I normally update the MegaDrops quietly around the last day of the month or during the first few days of the next one. The announcement can arrive separately. This September archive is ready early because the month's daily posts are already scheduled, including the final day.

A little of September before we catch up

The short version of my very long update

My last personal post went past 4,000 words. Apparently I had a few things to say. If you saw that wall of text and saved it for another day, here's the shorter version. I'm still here. I'm being treated for psoriasis, and I'm giving the treatment time. I don't have a dramatic before and after to announce. The results will take longer than my impatience would like.

I also explained why so much of this year went into internal systems. There were repetitive jobs taking time away from the work I actually wanted to do. Automating more of those jobs is helping me return attention to the images, the videos, and the stories. Those are still at the centre of BrawnyAi, even when the coding takes over my desk.

You can read the full Inner World article here. It also leads to a special September gallery, open to registered MightyBrawnies and 💪MightyPros. You don't have to finish the essay before enjoying the images. The PNG download is in the 💪MightyPros Secret Vault.

Have you found your star?

I've updated the Constellation of Stars too. Take a look for your initials or the public name you use. You can search for a star and find where it sits in this growing sky of people who have helped BrawnyAi keep going.

It isn't a complete list of everyone who has ever supported me, and it isn't a competition over who shines brightest. Some stars represent people, others represent shared moments or parts of our community. If you don't find yourself yet, please don't read that as me forgetting you. I'm still building it. I wanted somewhere that makes the support feel visible, beyond a number on a dashboard.

One valley in a much bigger Lumberlandia

One thing I want to make clearer about Lumberlandia is that it's a region. There are towns, villages, roads, and people with their own lives within it. Founder's Valley is one way to enter that world and build a settlement of your own. It isn't the whole of Lumberlandia squeezed into one game.

I've been adding and improving things, and the early playtest is still changing. Building a town also means thinking about what people need and how the pieces work together. I want more of its stories to become part of that experience, including things that belong specifically to Founder's Valley.

And yes, I know not everyone wants another game to learn. I'm thinking about ways you could interact with a town and its stories without having to spend all your time managing it. That part is work in progress, not a hidden feature you somehow missed. For now, you can try the valley, have a look around, and see where it is going.

Meet The Jock

The biggest thing I'm preparing for October is The Jock, our first interactive Digital Hunk. I've spent more than three years creating these men through images and videos. I still love that. But I've also been asking myself what happens when you can do more than look at them. What would it feel like to interact with one of the characters who belongs in this world?

That's the ambition behind Digital Minds. It doesn't mean I'm claiming to have created a conscious person. The Jock is an AI character, and this is my first attempt to give that part of BrawnyAi a form you can actually spend time with. I've worked on it for a long time, and it is still some distance from everything I want it to become.

A lot of the work has involved vibe coding. In plain language, I describe software I want to build and work with AI to write and revise the code. That doesn't remove the testing, the decisions, or the responsibility when something breaks. It has made it possible for me to attempt things I couldn't have built this way before. The games and the systems behind the website are part of that same effort.

I talked about the excitement and the difficult questions around AI in the Inner World article. I don't think those questions disappear because I'm happy with something I've made. For me, this is about finding a way to bring my own characters and ideas into an interactive space, while being honest that the technology is imperfect.

The current beta can help you discover galleries, point you towards the MegaDrops, and let you save cards in your Locker. It can also use the page you're reading as context. I like the idea of him being part of a visit to BrawnyAi, not another destination you have to remember. These are early capabilities, and I'll keep adjusting them as I learn what works.

The beta is now open to eligible 💪MightyPros, including eligible complimentary members. Sign in at BrawnyAi and look for the red-cap Chat with The Jock button. Visitors and free members can see a labelled preview, but that isn't live chat. The screenshots here show the current beta with a demonstration account, not a private member's conversation. He's still finding his feet, so please tell me what works and what feels off.

The current allowance is 30 messages and searches a day, with the reset time shown locally in the chat. I'm evaluating those limits as the beta develops. The feedback and request buttons open an email to me. A chat reply goes to The Jock, not to B, and requesting more doesn't automatically change the allowance.

MightyBrawnies, I haven't forgotten you. Once I've worked through more of the fixes and figured out a sensible way to expand access, I hope to invite more of you in. I don't have a date to promise. If you aren't registered yet, join the free membership and newsletter so we can stay in touch.

A full September, and more to come

So that's where I am. Treatment, hunks, a growing region, and a character who is beginning to answer back. I probably should be sleeping more, but working on this still excites me. Thank you for giving these experiments your time, for telling me when something works, and for being patient when it doesn't.

Enjoy September's images. I'll keep working on what comes next. With love, B.
