when it’s 1am and you’re feeling heated about your breakup 3 months ago but you can’t even get fun sexy vampire catharsis about it yet because it’s still crowdfunding. trying to bottle up this feeling to pull out when i draw a hunger card

To Feel Your Warmth is LIVE on BackerKit! A tragic duet vampire TTRPG about two people in love, one of which has been cursed with vampirism, in the final hours before sunset. A conversation about love, trust, and the decision to move forward together or say goodbye forever. 🩸🚪🌅

doing the tests at the eye doctor the day after seeing You Can See Everything and channeling Elizabeth Holmes’s huge unblinking eyes

the reason why In & Of Itself by Derek DelGaudio is so good is we get to see the exquisite craft of his sleight of hand but at its heart is A PRESERVATION OF WONDER!! (and it’s hot bc it’s also about the weight carrying it)

If you try to tell me how a magic trick was done I will kill you dead in the street without ceremony

Wicker was such a joy!! a fairytale for our time about how queer pleasure threatens the utterly fragile shackles of heteropatriarchy 🥰🥰

For me the interesting part of theatre and RPGs is not comparing scripts to games, but how we analyze and prepare a script for a performance versus a game for playing (and arguably also performing) Loved reading this first thing this morning and making me a little late lol

got caught in a time storm and briefly became one with a pilgrim who was known as Mrs. Leavitt before her time with the Agency— she smuggled me the scents i was tasked with finding and encouraged me and my lost love to fight ECCO X Time War

Last night was extraordinary & I’m still dazed from it. THE RIVER HAS ROOTS won a Hugo award! Huge congratulations to all the finalists & winners—it was such an honour & a joy to get to celebrate with you!
