Nothing is more trust the process then seeing how your hair lifts (this is a reminder to dry your hair before you start freaking out about your undertones)

I went to grad school - In that time I got to bestow the magic of Larping & how its ephemeral nature is a feature not a flaw. The power of embodied roleplay extended into my thesis: Emanation A Solo Micro Larp — plays in only 5 minutes! Now made available to you: darkerlarper.itch.io/emanation

The line between high drama and camp is thin, may you find yourself on the side you wish to be on

Reminder: we are being trained not to care about other people. It underlines the attacks on migrants, on DEI, on trans youth, on so-called "wokeness." Sure there are legitimate critiques but this is not about critiques. It's about supercharging capitalism's culture of uncare.

I've been searching for a job but when the government says that your job's not worth it it's really hard! It's even harder when you need a job that actually gives you benefits because healthcare! Salutes from the last day of Black History month and rare disease day Support: ko-fi.com/darkerlarper

Chillin at Intercon? Playing passenger? Just curious what Intercon is? Well I went last year, watch to find out more: youtu.be/HMW5IDfQve8 (FYI you've gotta be signed in because too much fun or something)

How do you like ask someone hey would love to go thrifting with you, are you doing anything this weekend? You seem to find amazing things and stuff - but they're just like a mutual from the internet in the same city You know asking for a friend... 😅

Access for disabled people is not preferential treatment. Exclusion of disabled people is punitive treatment.

Apparently Intercon 2024 was *too fun* My channel has it's first age restricted video! Look for it tomorrow!

Happy Intercon Eve to all that celebrate

Nothing is worse than your own brain committing you to create a particular thing despite the fact that you have complex feelings on the inspirational source material Anyhow off to the library

If I could break one terrible communication habit, I would have people be more clear and explicit in their asks - ask for what you want directly instead of dancing around the point hoping that someone will pick up on the hints (I know the whole "ask vs guess" culture thing, but I stan)

Why am I listening to Helena at 3:00 a.m. That's

If you've tried to contact me in the month of February, I'm going to be completely honest I'm actively sick, maybe dying, and we're not sure why (I wish this was a joke) If I owe you email responses I plan on trying to catch up before the end of the month (assuming that I continue to improve)

Want to stop AI? Start by refusing to use it. Tell your friends not to use it when they say they are. Tell your family. Coworkers. Literal strangers if you feel comfortable. It's literally wasting water, consuming power, devaluing human input (JOBS), and it produces absolute garbage to boot.

It feels criminal to be up this early/late randomly

I keep opening this app because I met someone at a party and gave them my business card with no way of me reaching out to them and it's making me unwell

A mic is not an insult A mic can be an accessibility tool A mic is great for recording Organizers go over with your presenters mic etiquette & technique (please I'm begging) Presenters, take the mic, use it, it's not about you

When you want to ask a favor but that favor requires someone going to THE American dream Mall... (It's that or Staten Island 😬)

I don't know a clearer way to say this: It is okay to work with established organizations and other entities to help marginalize people It is also okay just to give regular people money Especially on the smaller scale - $50 can go a lot farther sometimes to a person than an organization

I am the proud owner of a laminator and it's now everyone's problem 😈

Go birds 🦅

The horrors persist but I just dumped an entire jar of cherries into my Shirley Temple

insider secret to game studio social media management: when the person in charge of it leaves (fired, new job, whatever), there's like an 80% chance they still have access some accounts because no one thought to remove them or change the passwords chaos is always just a few clicks away 🤠

Hubris is having a computer that shuts off randomly (no advice please) and you not remembering the last time you hit save 🫠

It's February which means it's time to do costume planning for the only* Larp that I'm playing in this year! I've got my hero item picked, but now I've got to think about colors 🫠

happy Black History Month! support a Black person, pay a Black person, love a Black person, sponsor a Black person, include a Black person in your stream event! and when the month end, keep that same energy for the rest of the year 🙂‍↕️💗

It's ok to not have the cool zine done yet, I say as I submit Final Repass to the #TinyWorldsTTRPGJam hosted by @kiennas.bsky.social as.bsky.social & @vidityavoleti.bsky.social dityavoleti.bsky.social Don't you want to be a printer preparing for the uprising? darkerlarper.itch.io/final-repass

Who dedicated all their time to making graphics & the itch page look good for #TinyWorldJam instead of wordsmithing their game? (that right, me)

My #tinyworldjam needs to make it off the whiteboards and on to my itch page in the next 9 hours

I don't know why my tiny world jam has so much mathematics in it! (Doing math under pressure is not fun for me, Yes I literally know that many RPGs and Larps are literally doing math under pressure for fun...)

there is no "defensible use case" for chatgpt. do your own work and use your own brain or fuck off

Excited to finally announce that I'm part of the crew of Monstrosity! A larp where you can do anything. A design to protect you while you do. A story about the monster you can become and the humanity you’ve yet to discover. Bios and more can be found at: (NSFW) www.monstrositylarp.com/crew

Can I come on over and do crafts in your living room?
