Made this back in 2007 when I had been hit my car and had a broken leg in three places. At the time those colorful #iPod ads where everywhere, so I thought it was a perfect match for how I felt. 🩼

Just finished an #Overwatch match where our team steamrolled the other, and one of them summed it up best (I have had the exact same thought when I have been the one steamrolled). 😅

It's hard to believe that I used to draw so much I was able to crank things like this out. A friend asked me to draw a character from the #Talespin series, Myra, who appeared in just one episode. Cripes, this was from 25 years ago. I doubt I could draw her hat at this point. 😅

Ran across this recently -- from decades ago, one of the first pictures I took with my newly-bought used Pentax camera. This is an old copy, so the quality isn't that great; would love to re-scan my negatives for some of my older film photos. #photography

The Twilight Zone was easily one of my favorite #pinball games of all time. The way they incorporated so many of the episodes (Talking Tina, etc.), the sound effects, and so on -- if I ever had the money, this would definitely be something I would love to have in the house. ❤️

Of course, we all recall that time the skies were terrorized by snowglobe-wielding riffraff... What if you emptied out the liquid? That should work, right?

Whenever I see the center spiral on a jet engine, I am reminded of an audio file you could listen to on the old Donnie Darko website, where they talk about how close a match it is between one that crashed through Donnie's house and one attached to a plane hundreds of miles away. Is this just me?

After playing through #Overwatch a bit with the new season, I have had time to form some opinions: 1) My play style has not changed too much; the perks help, but if I am on Junkrat and someone goes Pharah, I am probably still going to switch to Solider 76.

Last part of the Hawai'i trip! open.substack.com/pub/mattplot...

Can someone please give #okgo a lifetime Music Video Award, already? youtu.be/MOEULOSVNK4?...

After seeing the Painted Church, I am now thinking of some murals for our own house.

Is this a new thing? Carving your names on tree leaves? Assuming it's not harmful to the tree, I think it's kind of cool.

Nothing like a former lava flow to get you thinking about your next terrain for a dragon's lair.... #TTRPG

This just gives me the vibe of a watchtower overlooking a valley.

These buildings look cool, but it would be even cooler if the center squares were open, and when lined up the sunlight would shine through both of them once a year, creating a super sunbeam laser. ...this will be used in a campaign of mine. 😅

Saw this outside of my plane window, and thought it'd make for a cool set piece in a #TTRPG. 😂

Looking over the new #d&d Monster Manual and its organizing is... interesting? Dragons and some others have their own separate entries (Black Dragon, Gold Dragon, etc.). But other creatures are still grouped under the general name, like Slaadi. Not sure the logic behind it yet.

Apparently, Delta believes in the hollow Earth theory.

Finished reading through Keys from the Golden Vault and now have a plan for putting it all together into one campaign, complete with reoccurring characters, original adventures, and an underlying threat that culminated in the final sessions. 😂 #dnd

Playing the new #Clue game with the family. I seem to recall the 80s version not having this whole backstory about all of the characters having solid motives to kill Mr. Body. I may be misremembering, but I think it was just "Mr. Body is dead. Who killed him?"

Have I mentioned how much I love that the #Wingspan board game has its own dice tower? Consider it mentioned. 😂

I have to wonder what counts as "Exotic." A Pinto? A PT Cruiser? The lack of example photos makes me suspicious....

Is this the Delta check-in counter at #Kona airport? Or a cleverly disguised Pizza Hut? YOU make the call!

Doing an editor's version of "community copies": if you have a small TTRPG project and can't afford an editor, DM me for a free editing pass in March or April!

Describe your DM style in 3 words or less: "That's messed up."

I haven't seen anything this accurate in a while. I loved the D&D movie though, so fucking good.

Damn. At the end of Act Two in #bg3 and I'm like, "Even here I have to worry about catfishing?"

NGL -- I forgot how much I love the smell of newly-bought RPG books. 😂 #ttrpg
