Hey everyone. I updated the layout of the online shop. The top row is physical items the second row is digital books. I also changed the cover for the digital Diary comics so you know your getting vol-1-2. Last note the Merroir and Diary comics are totally different stories not the same book.

Contributor Highlight: @riz0me.bsky.social is a writing instructor in Chicago, famously owns a physical copy of the Trophy Dark TTRPG (wow!), and has written many incursions for both Trophy Dark & Gold! His Trophy Gold incursion for the anthology is themed around Excess at an elaborate garden party!

The AI surveillance state is real — and it's being built by Palantir. https://youtu.be/x_VwyhErd88?si=UCDbzicHDPZE7T7S

Received an email today from someone who read The Hearth's anti-AI principle (I know b/c he referenced it in his email), and still thought I would be interested in shilling their product because *their* AI product is a GM assist, not generative. Still counts, chuckles. Welcome to the block party.

Offloading some more #ttrpg core rulebooks (opp edition) to make room for new books. These are all in excellent condition, well loved. Selling legendlore, cavaliers of mars, scion: book one, werewolf: the forsaken + st screen, vampire: the Requiem + st screen. Dm for interest. Might trade.

If you're wondering why creating faceless monsters you can kill without remorse because you feel you *have* to kill something is bad, please read this article I wrote ⬇️ & do read the *whole* article, not just what's available for free. www.rascal.news/ttrpgs-and-t...

🔴WE'RE LIVE NOW🔴 Join us as we reflect on a year of CHAOS and what we are looking forward to in the new year!

For my anxious babes who aren’t great with words — I find the best way to recover from messing up whatever you’re saying is to chuckle say, “words, what are they?” and then continue on with what you were saying

Where do I begin? There's so much wrong with what is said here. I weary of these people. Don't buy their stuff.

I'm so tired of this stuff. People can say they're tired of hearing "anti AI" arguments from folks, but what mental gymnastics are they doing to justify this? This is what they want to say is "inevitable"? Wait until it's more scientific/medical papers and people just die 'cos of an AI "oopsie".

Well, this is interesting. So they lied and got caught. And there were consequences. Hmm.

How many times have I been told to give this racist game and its racist creators grace, and second chances? and empathy, and good faith, and and and? Nah. This isn’t just a fundamental misunderstanding of Ghibli. It is colonialist fucking desecration. @obojima.bsky.social Go fuck yourselves.

If you've never seen the Super Eyepatch Wolf video on how Jake Paul stacked his boxing career to create an illusion he can actually fight, I highly recommend it and it makes tonight even more cathartic. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ktLa...

Late on this tonight, the 2nd night of the Advent of Swords. But things have been BUSY. Okay, here's a short one, because I've only got a two hour window to watch a holiday horror film in tonight and I don't want to miss it! Sometimes you think you know a game and then over a decade later…

Grateful to everyone sharing this an picking up bundles. I love to see the needle move on the sale's goal because it means I'm able to bring you more great articles from writers around the world, and I think that's neat.

Today, AG Letitia James of New York responded to the Trump administration's new rule attempting to ban trans youth care in hospitals nationwide. "I will not let the administration come for you." Read the latest from our writer, S. Baum here. www.erininthemorning.com/p/i-will-not...

I don't want gen AI in my browser I don't want gen AI in my pc I don't want gen AI in my art I don't want gen AI in my games I don't want gen AI in my music I don't want gen AI in my movies I don't want gen AI in my books I don't want gen AI in my cart I don't want gen AI in my life

Steal my gift idea: Every year I hand-pick a small/zine/solo TTRPG for each person that I play games with. I get to support indie creators/small press AND show my people I love them. And if I’m extra lucky, I get to play the non-solo ones with them. 😊❤️

The Wretched has seen a massive uptick in sales recently, which I'm very happy about. If you haven't checked it out yet it's currently on sale, which seems like an excellent excuse to give it a go. https://loottheroom.itch.io/wretched

For the overnight crowd!

I haven't forgotten this thread, thank you to eveyone who has suggested a Small Press or Indie #TTRPG for The Hearth to look at in 2026. Keep them coming!

If you weren't able to grab Issue 2, which includes my #superhero social deduction via court shenanigans #TTRPG about the trial of an alleged supervillain, be sure to check this out!

As I mention in the thread, I'll have a post about future issues soon. But part of it is hitting goals like I've set for this sale. The $900USD is the minimum needed to pay contributors, license art, and cover incidental costs (PayPal fees, Itch's/Ko-Fi's cut, etc). So if you can help...

ANNOUNCING MY WINTER ANTI-SALE for the next few weeks, itch.io is doing its winter sale, where devs who cut their game prices get promoted. but my games are all already underpriced, so i'm jacking up the prices by 50% instead. ho ho ho happy holidays

Roots + gears, just common stuff on the underbelly of a floating island, right? Overisles fragment. 2023 commission. #ttrpg #indierpg #fantasyart

This looks fun, but let's switch it up: which games would you like The Hearth to review in 2026? Feel free to suggest your own if you have one you want seen.
