Look, sometimes I just adore Foundry, and I get why so many people declare it the be-all-end-all of VTTs. I've used it for hundreds of hours. But good grief do I get frustrated when there is an update that suddenly screws up half my mods and systems to the degree that a game is almost unplayable.

The budget bill passed the house by 1 vote. That one vote could spell the deaths of millions of trans Americans. The bill includes provisions that strip gender affirming care of all kinds from trans people of all ages on Medicaid and ACA. Anything that receives federal funding. 1/3

I will no longer be saying "I'm feeling sick" or "I don't feel good." From now on I will only be saying "I'm afraid I am presently afflicted with a powerful malaise," whilst dramatically holding the back of my hand to my forehead.

Super gross.

I love how my doctor is shocked that I don't know my childhood clinic or what system my vaccination records are on. Ma'am, do you think I've been clinic-ing through my 20s and early 30s? I was a a healthcare-less, poor fool with ADHD whose parents taught him no life skills. I. Know. Nothing.

Happy to see Daggerheart out! I hope it acts as a stepping-stone for a lot of folks out there who are interested in taking their first steps away from D&D, and I am sure it will find its place as many people's "go-to system." It's a solid product and a lot of fun! Dig in!

Dear cooking influencers... We've all already learned that trick for cutting a bunch of cherry tomatoes at once. You can stop making those videos. We get it.

Fat People Belong in Fantasy, Including TTRPGs

This is what your Oblivion and Doom Dark Age purchases are funding. AI tech being used to fuel Israel's genocide in Gaza

Had an amazing weekend with some friends, and then unwound by watching two episodes of Taskmaster NZ whilst creating 25 picrew avatars that can be used for NPCs in an upcoming Monsterhearts game. All in all...9 outta 10 weekend (would have been a 10, but a friend had to miss)

Hey GMs, it's time to build up a little self esteem! What is something you are really good at, as a GM? I'm really good at ending sessions on cliffhangers and shocking reveals that drive my players up a wall (in a good way).

I have three types of TTRPG characters: 1. Big, serious dads who protect 2. Small, silly peeps who do their best 3. Shit-stirring, self-serving monsters who can be helpful but should never be left unsupervised

Took some time today to clean up my Discord. If I am inactive on your server, know that it's because I am on too many servers which gives me anxiety, so I've tucked your server into a little folder I never check. I still like you and probably miss you, but I fear messaging after so long.

Yay/nay????

Sometimes when I'm high I have ideas for TTRPGs mechanics or games, and I will write them down. Inevitably, the next morning I wake up, see that, and think "Well...that's...bad." However, the high-spiration I had last night? Hot damn, I might be on to something I like, nay, love!

One of my favourite pieces for Rascal

Listen up Words with Friends rando who tried to challenge me, I'm only on here to play with actual friends. And, while I can appreciate that you're just looking for a fun game, but your very first word was two letters...and you wasted an 'X' on nothing. You dare to come at me...with that?!

I honestly kind of love some of the negative comments I get on my "I'm Sick of HP in my TTRPGs" video, because some of them are kind of funny in how...well, frankly, how wrong they are. It goes beyond "not my preference" to "I don't understand but I'm gonna rant anyway!"
