Empty rooms! What are they good for? Contrastingly, how do you transform empty rooms into interesting spaces for charged battles? All this and more is discussed in chapter 8 of my Designing Dungeons Course! dungeons.hismajestytheworm.games/docs/chapter8/ Join me in making a dungeon!

Backed! Arlin's works are so fine and beautifully made you have to at least give them a look!

genuinely embarrassing that now that we know an unelected foreigner is able to just wipe out entire government departments by decree, looks like Biden just spent 4 years pretending he didn’t have the clear authority to end student loan debt when he probably could’ve done it in an afternoon

Help us reach our goals this month during our first anniversary pledge drive! Were currently at 1967 paying subscribers, just over 50 new subscribers away from a new monthly column from @ckunzelman.bsky.social www.rascal.news#/portal/

Absolutely wild that you guys don’t feel sick to your stomach at the thought of blaming victims of a genocide and their families and supporters for an outcome determined by the way the majority of white Americans voted Talking like this should make you feel ill

Here is a mockup of one of the monsters! This one is from issue 4 originally printed in 2015!

This is all happening because no one in Democratic Party leadership had the integrity to state the obvious: that Biden should not have run for reelection

If you expressed “negative sentiment” toward insurance companies on social media following the murder of UnitedHealthcare’s CEO last month, the government was watching:

how do people know when #PortfolioDay is all the time?! Anyway, look at some of my work!

Hi y'all! I started collecting fundraisers for members of The Animation Guild (my union) and their friends and family in hopes of having a centralized list people can send around. Please feel free to share! 📃 bit.ly/TAG839LAFires

Many animation folks have been affected by the LA fires, here is a current list of gofundmes to help those that have lost so much. Please consider donating or sharing to help our union kin. If you know animation folks not on the list, let me know so they can be added ❤️ airtable.com/appugwkqKAVG...

Please send anything you can to Jordan @indiedynamo.bsky.social, who lost his home, brother, and father to the fires here in Los Angeles. If you can’t donate, please share. www.gofundme.com/f/help-jorda...

We need to highlight Black people who have suffered loss during these LA fires. Please please share this "Displaced Black Families" document and donate if you can!!!!! docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

I’m going to do this!

New Risopost print! last print of the year! A red-winged blackbird. I send out prints every month, get em here! www.patreon.com/risopost

EARTH TO ALBATROSS 🌎📡🕊️ new short i made this week. about making art. starring @krismukai.bsky.social & @arlinortiz.bsky.social youtu.be/ZViuZc28edM

Got my new Rumored Lands Zines in the mail and they’re stunning! I love the way they’re written so far and I’m looking forward to diving in some more. Good work @arlinortiz.bsky.social !!

Saw @arlinortiz.bsky.social’s maps on Pinterest the other day, then remembered I’d backed their “Rumored Lands” zines, and one day later, they arrived in the mail! 🙌

BREAKING: The biggest strike against Amazon in U.S. history is happening right now. The Teamsters are picketing facilities across the country. The union has organized workers at 10 Amazon locations AND they're putting up picket lines at hundreds of other Amazon sites nationwide.

#TTRPG 🎲 Advent Calendar, Day 20: "Rumored Blades" by Arlin Ortiz ( @arlinortiz.bsky.social ) & Kris Mukai ( @krismukai.bsky.social ) A beautifully riso-printed zine of system-neutral magical blades. Each has fun, unique art, alongside a smattering of potential effects, lore, & backstory

🔥 TWAS THE STRIKE BEFORE CHRISTMAS! 🔥✊ Starbucks baristas are going on five days of escalating ULP strikes in response to the company backtracking on our promised path forward, starting tomorrow in Los Angeles, Chicago, and Seattle... and soon, from coast-to-coast. 🧵

I think if you’re a young person (or an older person frankly) considering some kind of creative project, the state of the world is more or less “fuck it we ball” like, you might as well

Come to CALA this weekend! We will be at table 28B!
