Hey all, I am seeking a new art direction gig starting around late spring/summer when my current contract with metal weave is likely to end! I’m an experienced AD in tabletop games and would love to collaborate with you to develop a unique and diverse visual look for your game 😌✨

If I had a nickel for every time a passerby observed that my shiba “looks like a fox,” I could pay my rent just by walking my dog.

An upcoming Arkham Horror RPG book I wrote for, Arkham Mysteries, has been announced! It contains three exciting mysteries to solve, including The Ophidian’s Nightmare, by me! www.edge-studio.net/introducing-...

Realtime images from my office.

I have been devastatingly unable to sleep lately and I don’t really know why.

Oh! If you like Power Rangers: Heroes of the Grid, check out the Eternal Rangers Kickstarter campaign. It'll give you some content to round out your collection - including some scenarios I did over the years! www.kickstarter.com/projects/ren...

I really like these little things.

in case you didn't hear - you can support me on patreon now! www.patreon.com/inesvisual exclusive sapphic comics that you can literally take part in directing, illustration process that you can engage with, and discounts to all my future printables! all in one place 💛 (sharing appreciated! 🫰)

I didn't see Love, Actually until this past December, but now whenever I see things reference the famous cue card scene as a big romantic gesture I'm a little like 😬 (I really liked the movie, but just like with the full context that scene is not something to emulate.)

“The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath” is a metroidvania. In this essay, I will…

Instagram is hiding search results with Democrat/generally liberal/anti-Trump hashtags. I’m not exactly a heavy user of the site so I doubt Meta will care, but I’m dumping the platform and maybe you should consider doing so too.

Sometimes I am encouraged by the amount of indie TTRPG things out there now and sometimes I find it unfathomably daunting.

We got in some games of Star Trek: Away Missions by @galeforcenine.bsky.social this weekend! Really enjoyed this Trek-flavored take on competitive tactics.

At what age should I tell my shiba that the salmon fairy isn’t real?

Anybody need game design, narrative design, or writing services? Because I know a guy. (It’s me. I’m the guy.)

Had a school nightmare for the first time in a while. It did include a brief interlude of President Biden trying to rap, so that was amusing.

Happy 2025! I’m open to game design, scenario design, narrative design, and writing gigs this year. I’d love to help make your game great! Also check out Arkham Horror: The Roleplaying Game, which I contributed to!

Wow, like, almost a month ago I told myself I was going to redouble my efforts to be on social media at least a little and then proceeded not to do that at all.

I've been fairly absent from social media for the last few months, and from Twitch, but I am coming back soon! The end of the year has been busy and I set aside my regular streaming for a little bit. Thursday Zelda Timeline streams will resume in January!

Since bsky has gifs now I’M BACK BABY!

Hey everyone! With the release of the #ArkhamHorror Roleplaying Game Core Rulebook, we also have a freshly updated errata! www.edge-studio.net/shares/arkha...

Me: I should watch one of those current acclaimed shows because I'll probably like them and I'll be up on culture. Also me: Probably about time for my annual Seinfeld rewatch.

I probably shouldn’t be allowed Blokees. Especially since I have pulled several spare Ironhides and Megatrons…

I'm gonna be at PAX Unplugged on Saturday and Sunday! Hit me up if you want to hang out. I'll be roaming looking for random encounters.

Friends, let's help our indigenous neighbors this Thanksgiving. givebutter.com/FOODSUPPORT

I want to play more Phasmophobia.

This is the longest I’ve gone without ADHD meds in a while and I Do Not Like It.

I was really hoping that by this point in the week the initial wave of creeping dread would’ve subsided enough for me to at least FUNCTION. It has not.

Reskeet to save someone’s fucking life

Oh heck it's Guy Fawkes Day.

Let me just jot down a few notes for next session while they're on my mind!

I have accidentally made my Power Rangers consider ethical treatment of POWs.

Freelance artist call posted at Wizards of the Coast. For those looking for work, read the details here: company.wizards.com/en/freelance...

I have only just realized that this movie hinges on leadership passing from one character to another. I was just invoking it as a comfort movie.

Seriously considering just watching Transformers: The Movie like 3 times in a row tomorrow night.

I, uh, slept longer than I meant to, but I will be up and running again shortly!

We're almost 8 hours in, still in Banner Saga 1, but we've hit the fundraising goal I set at first, so I've updated the night with new goals to strive for! Come hang out if you want. I'll be here all night. twitch.tv/pikorito

Okay, I'm about to hit go on #ExtraLife2024! This year I'm playing for the Boston Children's Hospital. I'll be playing through the Banner Saga trilogy (or at least as far as I get before I crumble into dust). Come hang out and keep me sane and maybe donate if you feel like it! twitch.tv/pikorito

While you enjoy your costumes and candy, don’t forget to take a moment to reflect on the life and lessons of our lord and savior David S. Pumpkins.

CHVLR is really cool!

Was…was All Things Considered playing the Chrono Trigger theme?
