The way you can summon me to consciousness with the sound of certain voices... Or how @wryraconteur.bsky.social started playing the #Murderbot trailer on her phone only for me to immediately mumble "Big Screen" from beneath my napping pillow & blanket, so we could both watch on the TV

And lo, the trailer did drop: www.apple.com/tv-pr/news/2... #murderbot

True Love is being able to sleep through hurricanes, earthquakes, and tornados But not your wife loudly proclaiming her displeasure at the temperature for next week

The time is upon us! We're live with Bookhounds of London! www.twitch.tv/otherdoc

Hey Everyone, I just heard back and there’s no Presidents Day this year while we review what went wrong with presidenting. Monday is “Cheese Day”. Please celebrate accordingly.

Tonight, we jump into our live campaign of Bookhounds of London! #cthulhu #TTRPG

“Do not bend your neck for that which cuts necks.” A Sumerian proverb, as relevant today as it was thousands of years ago.

HAPPY LUNAR NEW YEAR! WEAR RED! TAKE MONEY! EAT TOO MUCH FOOD! BLOW THINGS UP!!!

I haven't been a player in a streamed game in...a while. But my character for this is Not A Good Person and thus...should be very fun. 😈

So one of the things I love about the Dresden Files RPG is that before you make characters, you make the city. We spent the whole session last night, after two weeks of run up unofficially in discord, talking about what themes/factions should define Atlanta, and its place in the Magical world.

Mission accomplished, get ready players.

Gearing up for a Dresden Files RPG set in Atlanta, and among much else we have decided on places of mystical importance. Including, of course, The Big Chicken.

Finally starting Dune:Prophecy And if anyone needed further proof that @wryraconteur.bsky.social & I have a hivemind, we both squealed "It has pocketssss!?!" when Valya put her hands in her dress Meanwhile James:

It is time for my annual Best Books of the Year thread! 🍾🎉📚 The Rules: I'm only including books that were published in 2024 & which I gave 5 stars. Let's go!

It is time for that greatest of holiday traditions... defector.com/the-2024-hat...

If I had a nickel for every time I officiated a wedding for someone I met through D&D, I'd have 2 nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice. So proud to celebrate the marriage of my lovely friends today! (Guest appearance by @lambells.bsky.social who is in the wedding party)

I finished Wind and Truth yesterday at 7pm. And HNNNNNNNNGH

My top 10 SFF of the year are up at @nytimes.com today, with one notable lacuna because I only managed to read it after I filed, so take it from me that METAL FROM HEAVEN absolutely belongs on this list & would have been if I had my shit more together, demonstrating why lists should be taken w/salt

*insert incoherent shrieking noises* THE TIME HAS COME

Y'ALL. I GOT THE THING.

Still so damn proud of how my Gortash came out. He’s a horrible (and a lliiiiiittle tragic) man, which is always one of my favorite flavors #baldursgate #bg3cosplay #gortash

Well, after 3 rounds of tweaking, I think I have finally perfected my breakfast hash recipe. This batch came out darn near perfect. It also reinforces that once again, I am only good at cooking breakfast - but I am *really* good at breakfast.

If you see this, post a red haired character!

Came home from grocery shopping to find that Hubby had surprised me with a dozen roses AND a gorgeous purple orchid. 💜

Quote repost with yours! Since we're all coming this way, 4 cosplays to get to know me

*Zelda victory noise*

Listen, I may be a very heavily lapsed Christian but The Plagues is a bop & I will never not jam out when it pops up on Spotify.

In the last five hours I have cleaned all of the downstairs areas of my home, hung 10+ pieces of art, and -- for good measure -- baked a cake. Productive Saturday is productive.

JACKET WEATHER HAS ARRIVED

Because it sounds fun (& I am perhaps something of a glutton for punishment), let's do a thing in 2023! A 🧵 of one tweet reviews of all books I read this year! (Transferring a thread from the 🐦 app)

I've downloaded AC Mirage & now - a 🧵 of thoughts

I HAVE SABRIEL PHOTOS THIS IS NOT A DRILL

I was doing a Bird App thread reviewing all the books I've ready in 2023, but now I'm wondering if I should move it here. Thoughts?

Returning to the office after Con Coworkers: Do you have photos of your outfits?! Me:

Here we go again. New channel. Bear with me while I try to find everybody. 😅
