Fuck your eyes in particular

I'm beginning to think In the Heat of the Night is a good show.

Waiting for 2025 to end

One Trios Tag Match competitors worth (aka 6) to go over the next 48 hours to hit this arbitrary, but satisfying goal!

Starting in 2026, I'm blocking any news source that uses the word "controversial."

Last week I had a lot of fun creating a program that randomly generates nighttime snowscapes like the one pictured here. This is basically a giant animated SVG as a web page. The lights gently blink and the snow lazily drifts downward.

Hello Stranger, Re-introduction time! I'm Epidiah Ravachol. Perhaps you've heard of my #ttrpg work, like Dread, the horror game that uses Jenga; or Swords Without Master, the one with the tones.† I've been at this indie truly-true role-playing game publishing gig for roughly a quarter century.

Watching the flickering shadows of the networking discourse fills me with a desire to publicly apologize to anyone who thought I'd be a good resource there. I suspect people assume that, because they've heard of one of my games, I have better industry connections than I actually do.

I was gifted a bunch of ROM collections and I'm loving it!

Save the date! ArcaneCon 2026 returns on October 16th & 17 in Northampton, MA! New space, twice the size, still downtown!

Looking for some recommendations of sweet sci-fi vector art assets for layout/graphic design. Also, sci-fi dice fonts?

Oh the glorious things we are creating for this, friends! Oh the magic and wonder and mystery! Oh, the mirth and the melancholy, the thrill and the haunt, the swords and the sorcery, that we are brewing into our words and paints and pixels for you all!

Only 8 more sales of World Wide Wrestling (or 4 of the Mega-Champ Bundle) to go to hit a nice round 500 free Community Copies for 2025! itch.io/s/137078/wor...

Hello new followers and friends! This is what I'm working on right now for @unwrittenearths.bsky.social, so expect to see more in early 2026 all about Swords Without Master, the campaign to launch a new standalone fixup edition, and supporting your tales of mighty swords and strange sorceries!

Swords Without Master is nigh! Sign up to be notified when we launch @epidiah.bsky.social's iconic sword & sorcery ttrpg, along with original Eidolon art cards from @portablecity.bsky.social, @gorangligovic.bsky.social, @queerwizard.co.uk and more! www.kickstarter.com/projects/unw...

What're folks using for a laugh-track for their #ttrpgs these days?

Web development: "Here are 17,000,000,000 ways to do the thing." Eppy: "Okay cool let me try this way." Web D.: "No! Not that way." Eppy: "Okay, how about this way?" "No! Not that way." "Okay, how about this way?" "No! Not that way." "Okay, how about this way?" "No—" "Oh fuck off."

Finally caught up to 20 a Day in my DS9 watch!

Just read a short story.

No, YOU have to get up and shovel the car out.

I love big and ornate ttrpg books. Seriously. Of course, SPINE is neither big nor ornate. It aims for a very different sort of production value, and posts like these make me both relieved and grateful, because they show that we managed to accomplish that goal, at least in part.

As a holiday treat to myself, I played around with animating SVGs! It's kind of wild how I can make something that looks like a screensaver that ran on my Windows 95 machine; but now, running in a browser 30 years later on a machine measured in GHz instead of MHz it pins the needle on all 6 cores.

Only 9 sales to go to hit that 500 goal! This includes sales through all direct outlets: my website www.ndpdesign.com/store/p/worl... itch ndpdesign.itch.io/the-world-wi... drivethru www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/3... payhip payhip.com/b/2PFSa Thanks!

I laughed, but of course immediately overthought it in the “even joke laws/rules are a response to a perceived phenomenon” so I’m curious about how much #TTRPG content (reviews, advice, Actual Play) doesn’t link to where one can find the game…

Another year free of sin at the Game Master Monday offices

🚨 ALERT: New Copyright Laws Going Into Effect January 1st, 2026 🚨 Starting in the new year, if you play a #ttrpg on a streaming service or write about folks streaming #ttrpgs and you fail provide links to those games for your audience, you will be legally considered an absolute poopy-butt.

Nepo baby of nepo babies.

Christ on a bike, this is brilliant. And disgustingly historically accurate. 10/10

The time foretold of is upon us!

Hello, new Blueskyers! My name's Chris, I live in a small mining town in western Kentucky, and I post a lot of drawings of historical, literary, and (especially holiday-related) folklore figures, often with mini-essays to introduce folks to them. Looking forward to meeting y'all!

I *was* going to throw him out in the snow, but the man brought some corn for popping. So what're you going to do?

About to start hammaxxing as I type.

Good tidings to you and all of your kin.

Pistachios!

Like, this is the infinite money glitch for ruining these assholes, I really don't see what's objectionable here...

Cat Poirot (Xmas card for dad)

This is heresy around these parts, but I need the world to realize that scented candles smell like candles first. And therefore they're only appropriate when everyone in the room is like, "You know what I want to smell right now? Not this succulent feast I've laid before you, but a fucking candle."

Every year around this time I eventually hear some Mannheim Steamroller and it never fails to put me in a nostalgic mood for a fantasy #trrpg where the soundtrack is more synth than anything else.

"You there, boy! What day is it?"

And I heard him exclaim as he rode down the street, "A merry Thursday to everyone and to everyone a good meat!"

Folks!!! Remember all that stuff I said about commissioning art cards for use as eidolons in Swords Without Master? bsky.app/profile/epid... Here's a little sneak preview!

I’m assuming that for Epimas, everyone is following Swords without Master on Kickstarter www.kickstarter.com/projects/unw..., and playing something weird. (Like an RPG made from the little placemat games you find in roadside diners.)

tis the season!

Happy frozen Godzilla to all who celebrate.

Just want to put out feelers for a TTRPG writer/dev or two who would be interested in collaborating on a pulpy scifi/fantasy project in 2026 with myself and another artist/writer. Ideally someone who'd fuck with "Frank Frazetta but queer" as an aesthetic. Would love 2 chat if this sounds interesting

Just watched the DS9 episode "Starship Down," and I'm deeply disappointed. Where were the space rabbits?

i had to drop what i was doing to make this
