Scrolling through stock photos looking for a reference of someone braiding hair, and I see a beautiful mortar and pestle - one of the other subjects I was going to look for a reference for Maybe today is my lucky day

OH MY GOODNESS I POSTED THIS BEFORE ***THAT*** SCENE (ugh Brennan portrays a strategic lady in a patriarchal society really well and she reminds me of my NPC Queen Prudence from my home game)

I go to a lot of classical music concerts (my wife sings in them). They all talk about how the composer reworked their earlier X, Y, and Z pieces in this work, while also borrowing from composers A, B, and C. Anyway, reuse your game designs and borrow from others.

My first five ttrpgs in the order I played them: 1. D&D 5e 2. Call of Cthulhu 4. Maybe Fiasco? I dunno for sure - after the first two I just started playing all the systems I could get my grubby lil hands on

Truly heartbreaking to listen to someone describe the pitch for a game you've been looking forward to and the metaphor clicks and you realize that you cannot play it without it cutting too deep 🥺

I want to say how cool it is to see people who I backed on previous ttrpg projects have new ones they're working on. Genuinely, we live in a horrible timeline. You continuing to make games and art in spite of it all? It's inspiring and I appreciate the hell out of it.

"Is there *anyone* on this ship who doesn't have mommy issues?" That, and the running gag with @yellowstonefree.bsky.social about fucking @jellyfishlines.itch.io's character's mom is going to be my Actual Play legacy, isn't it?

The QueerXP@thequeerxp.bsky.social

Are moms usually right? A great day to find out for those on the Mommy Issues I MEAN the Anarchy! You can find out too (and before everyone else) on our Patreon! www.patreon.com/TheQueerXP/p...

Dylan's streaming, go tell him I said hi (I'm resting in the room off camera listening to him gaming)

Dylan Baird (BardicGeek)@bairdlytrying.games

Might sneak in another hour of #streaming starting at about 7:30 pm Central or so to try and unwind a bit after a *very* Monday. #FieldsofMistria again if anyone is interested. Only an hour in so far! @Bardicgeek on Twitch if you're inclined! Same username if you're not inclined.

Arguably they are both examples of technical writing! Also, user experience and user interface design skills can help with ttrpg and character sheet layout!

💀Elaine Lich-glow💀@elainelithgow.bsky.social

I've said it before and I'll say it again: TTRPG books and Cookbooks share the same design goals. They're both image-heavy manuals that promise you and your friends a good time, but ONLY if you read them and follow the instructions. Wanna get better at making TTRPGs? Try reading some cookbooks!

look i’m not gonna say it’s a coincidence but @gamemastermonday.bsky.social releasing God Killer Home Run and then a month later the Dodgers being out of playoff contention with the lock out looming…..but when you really think about it Lee Fisher might have actually saved baseball right

Gonna pickyback off of this to tell my friends.... I do not care if you text me at weird hours. I will see it when I see it. 🤷

Jes the human@jesthehuman.itch.io

The problem I have with staying in touch with people is I think of them between 6-8am before my day gets busy and it’s not socially acceptable to text at that time and by the time I remember it’s 6-8am the next day and cycle repeats

9/?) The Things That Keep Us I roll a 4 for the second scenario and select another glyph, the key. Physical Damage: 3 Spirit: 4 My person finds stability and moves into a new house. They've grown a whole lot, and when they move into the new house, they don't take me with them.

@oakleafinsignia.games

10/?) The Things That Keep Us Perhaps they moved in with a partner who has a cat that likes to chew on plants. (Snake plants are toxic to cats.) An elderly woman enjoys my company now, but I still think about my person. Maybe someday I'll find them again, perhaps as a coffee mug.

7/?) The Things That Keep Us For the first scenario, I rolled a 3 and add it to Physical Damage since the number is odd. I select another glyph, this time it's a bird flying upward. For this playthrough, I think maybe it represents a risky opportunity, where hard work can earn acclaim.

8/?) The Things That Keep Us Physical Damage: 3 Spirit: 0 My person pushes themselves in this new opportunity. Working late, and over watering me. I remain a steady calming presence, despite the damage I take on.

5/?) The Things That Keep Us I think as a snake plant, I was a gift for graduation, from a loved one - perhaps even a professor that my person admired. The significance of this gift makes me a cherished item, not just a plant on the floor.

3/?) The Things That Keep Us Next I select glyphs. These glyphs represent the person I'm there for, and their life. I've selected: The dowsing rod The skull The new sprout I think this might mean that my person has a tendency to over intellectualize in their search for direction and growth.

I figured out the solution, so the next time I try to go live while drawing, we should be good 🤞

Sadie 🔜 PAXU@oakleafinsignia.games

More things to troubleshoot came up with my pen display related to extending the display, so I'll need to figure it out before I try again another time
