Please support new TTRPG magazine Playtest Material if you can! I have an article in the inaugural issue, as do folks like @jellyfishlines.itch.io and others!

not engaging with the wizard show (yes, even through piracy) is a gesture. it's literally the tiniest gesture of solidarity you can make, and it says a lot if that's too hard

I was adopted from China via Holt International - I'm glad the organization's origins and role in international adoption are being critically examined.

Idc how you feel about Chris as a content creator. Everybody should listen to this bc nobody seems to understand intersectionality in practice I have dealt with so much drama over the past year bc of fetishization and objectification BY OTHER FEMS bc of their own insecurities about me existing.

The “Dragon Age: Veilguard” character creator is so powerful, including lots of thoughtful additions that meaningfully add to its inclusivity… …and I’ll also never get over the fact that it’s almost impossible to make a character without cheekbones so sharp they overwhelm me each time I see them. 😂

THIS POSTER IS 🔥

Izzy does great work. Hire Izzy!

💥TONIGHT, 8:30PM EST - The thrilling and ridiculous conclusion of NEVER STOP SNOWING UP to support @elevatedaccess.bsky.social! 💥 If that's not enough, we'll add: Underwater Casino Heist, anyone? 🌊🎲👀

💥 TONIGHT, 8:30PM EST - More #HSCharity hijinks with Part 2 of #NeverStopBlowingUp to support @elevatedaccess.bsky.social! Our team of ordinary schmoes have to learn how to survive under the laws of an action movie. What are those laws? THERE ARE NO LAWS! except one: NEVER. STOP. BLOWING. UP. 🔥🔥🔥

💥 TONIGHT, 8:30PM EST - Kickoff #HSCharity with the premiere of a special #NeverStopBlowingUp mini series to support @elevatedaccess.bsky.social! When the holidays come around, a group of ordinary folks are teleported to the world of NSBU, where action movies are reality, & the stakes are ... real?

for Black Friday, HORSE VOLTRON is (still) free. but you can pay for it if you want to fund my other game design endeavors, which are mostly nothing like HORSE VOLTRON at all midnightkelpiepress.itch.io/horse-voltron

I really hate asking this, esp before the holiday, but I’m having an emergency. My filling broke and I have a painful abscess that needs immediate care. I don’t have dental insurance and could really use a hand. I’m so sorry to ask. I can barely eat or sleep. #mutualaid ko-fi.com/candacethema...

still thinking about arcane

In one hours time, our FIRST Blood On The Clocktower game premieres on YouTube @ 12pm PT! TIME FOR SPOOKY DEDUCTION 👻🔮🎃 Feat: @markeiamccarty.bsky.social @dreamwisp.bsky.social @rileysilverman.bsky.social @ryanomega.bsky.social @lambertraa.bsky.social @vincecaso.com @jeremycobb1.bsky.social

I’ve been thinking a lot about this, and really would like @tabletoprevolution.com to pilot something here that would be helpful, maybe a blog of thoughtful AP reviews and criticism (as in “critic,” not as in negativity). What would you want to see in an AP reviews outlet, TTRPG community?

🌟TONIGHT, 8:30PM EST - Get ready for MORE ‘Roots of Old Kalduhr’, our #TrophyGold series! There are more bells to be found, & more transformations to be had. How long will our party hold onto their luck? When will the final bell toll? #ttrpg #tabletop #stream #Twitch: www.twitch.tv/highshelfcol...

Hey you know what the Actual play space needs? The normalization of peer reviewing shows. Nothing negative. I feel like as creators we consume less and less in our own space. We should change that. When I was in comics I read other comics, why should it be different now? Also bring back Game Feels

✨LIVE NOW✨ Season 2, Episode 20: “By Moonlight” 💚💛💙🤍💜 Two bikers choose a familiar road. An artist helps a musician sing a new song. A hero finds their place after the battle. A gymnast and fighter look to the future. Another day dawns in Oliva Bay.
