Hi. (He/Him) - PNW I make games as Monkeyfun Studios and sing for Prelude to a Pistol. I have two black cats that are scheming something...

Due to mutual friends, I was able to meet both B. David Walters and Alexander Ward from LA by Night and both were hella nice people. I’d run a game for them any night of the week.

If you buy a ttrpg book from the big name game, you help an executive increase profitability for shareholders. If you buy a ttrpg from a small indie designer, you help them pay their rent or feed their kid, etc.

I regularly consider deleting this account, just keeping the Monkeyfun account. Then I trade a joke with a fellow designer like Epi or the Bakers or BC and I go, nah. Wouldn’t miss this for the world.

This is Jerry Lawson. He invented the video game cartridge for the Fairchild Channel F system. Because of his invention, many consoles had cartridges and CD formats and would become the norm. The Atari 2600, NES, Genesis, and many consoles wouldn't exist without him. Happy Black History Month.

I finally have a bead on Wheeler Yuta’s character - the party pooper.He should pull a Claudio and hop out of the ring to rip up beach balls. Rip up fan signs. Just take the fun out of it all. #AEW

This morning I dreamt I had a dental visit during a flight layover. The dentist was in the actual airport. It made me miss my connecting flight. Modern times require modern nightmares.

Some people got miffy about Toni Storm coming out in her old outfit, saying she was burying her career for ditching the Timeless gimmick. Now we can see she’s doing something totally new, and we don’t know (for sure) where she’s going with it. And that is marvelous. #AEW

I am about 80% done on the layout of my new WIP. I can tell because I can look at the current version and not wince and feel like an utter sham in my efforts. Now it’s a lot of tsk-ing.

I think Voodoo Doughnut gets too much hate. Everyone who dogs on them has yet to have a late Thursday afternoon leftover from the local donut shop off the 5 freeway to *really* understand what bad donuts taste like.

Me: I've been working on this for months and I think this might start to look decent. Alan Bahr: I wrote this in an afternoon while waiting for my tires. (Don't get me wrong though. I love my brother.) 😄

Every time I share about Libby I think, “People can’t not know Libby right?” And then someone is always happy to learn about Libby! Anyway it’s a library app and you just need a library card to check out audiobooks and ebooks from your library to your phone. It’s great!

Give credit for the roots of your successes. If it’s a TTRPG actual play stream, let the viewers know who made it, who published it, and where they can get their own copy. If it’s a game based on or hacked from someone else’s system, talk about who made the original system.
