My little motivational post about art is getting some traction again and I think that’s very nice ☺️ I posted this thinking about AP & game design & writing, but it’s so cool hearing ppls’ comments from other art forms 💕 BAD ART FOR ALL!!

"Afflicted with reach" is a hilarious and accurate way of framing my ~social media career~

This is very similar to the "Checked Your Socials Do-si-do", a cool dance move you see at Cons. You're chatting w/ someone & they're not into it. They ask for your card as a way to exit the conversation. You give them your card. They walk away. Then they come back a few mins later, MUCH FRIENDLIER.

On a scale of 1 to 5, how shitty is it for me to CASUALLY including my global follower count when requesting tech support from a company trying to extort money from me? I blame y'all. I never should have been trusted with this power.

I’ve hosted recent panels on horror, anti-fascism and sex in TTRPG and it’s this ever-circling-vortex in my mind about discomfort, challenging status quo, and censorship in gaming.

I'd like to register myself as an official Notion hater.

The banshee’s wail warns of us tragedy to come.

I'm going to use what platform I have to do some good. With that in mind, I'm bringing back my "Geek of the Week" to highlight folks that I think are worth your follow, and support. This week, it's @ttrpgifs.bsky.social. Let me tell you why:

Having content creators and actors as friends is weird bc i can literally develop a parasocial relationship with someone who I ALREADY have a normal friendship with Sorry friend, but I’m besties with a fictional persona you created

I was trying to explain this to my partner “y’know how ppl make vibes but like —wait, ppl make norms but it’s just vibe — wait, no. Idk I’m too sick to think big thoughts. Only little thoughts.” And partner replied “you are incapable of little thoughts: just big thoughts & half-baked big thoughts.”

I'm watching #startrek TNG for the first time and LIVE REACTING and I'm on S6E15 Tapestry! Engage 🚀

When I got COVID, I spent a full day a little high on cough syrup, reading Chuck Tingle meta-Tinglers until I existed in a space outside of time. I now have a nasty sinus infection, and have spent 2 days watching Game Changer (while a little high on cough syrup). What is anything?

If you get sick on the weekend, you should get to take Monday off work (even if you’re better). So says I.

Idk if sociology or what, but I’d love to read about the phenomenon about how a group of ppl can establish norms for behaviour so quickly so that the whole group understands and finds this normal and comfortable, and how one person can shatter those norms for everyone. For better or for worse.

This is VERY POWERFUL What does your favourite #TTRPG smell like?

Love you guys but I’m getting the stark impression that many of you haven’t seen Smarty Pants 😂

For people who like my #startrek live reacts, I'm posting them on another account now OVER HERE bsky.app/profile/wher...

I’m normally too antsy to sit and watch TV but I am *sick* and the medicine makes me *tired* and I’ve been watching Dropout for 6 hours now and honestly? I’m having a great time. TV is great.
