My favorite part of today is typing increasingly unhinged seasons greetings to people. HAMPLE CRISPBLISS to you all.

*taps mic* hello gamers... how we doin? I've been quiet lately, deep in the Cartomantic mines, but I wanted to say we're happy to be partnering with HypeTrain Digital! We're going to be a part of their upcoming publisher sale (for playtest signups~) 💖 Check out The Fool by @runesael.bsky.social 👀

1999 - 2025. 26 years of my life right here. That's about 76k hours. There have been seasons in my life where I didn't paint at all, and seasons where I was painting 12-16 hours a day. Keep going. You'll get there. <3 #art #digitalpainting #portrait #oc

We spoke to a dozen professional concept artists who are currently or have previously worked in game development about whether generative AI image tools have made their jobs any easier. Zero said it did. Most said it made things harder. thisweekinvideogames.com/feature/conc...

Headed out of the world for awhile. I’ll be back around the 7th of January. When I’m back, we’ll be kicking into gear with a bunch more art. Stay kind out there. <3

Some advice from a couple of years ago that I still think most creative people need to hear --

Hey folks. Sorry I've been scarce on stream recently. We've had a death in the family and I've been pretty out of it. For folks who donated to the AACR last month, rest assured I'm still working on completing donation incentives. Thanks for your patience. I'll be back as soon as I can be. <3

Gonna chase the sad off with some arrows here in about 30 minutes. Just need to shove some food in me and get kitted up. www.twitch.tv/runesael

cats the muffled sound of the world after a fresh snowfall making character playlists really good roleplaying fountain pens repairing old broken things four panel dance games!!!! that feeling when a chart really starts working fresh bread and butter power lines dividing the sunset soft blankets

Tell your friends and family you love them. Tomorrow is never promised. Stay weird - and stay kind out there.

once people start to realize their creative autonomy, their life changes in a profound way. they start going after what they want, treating life like the blank canvas it is. if they can create something from nothing, they can do anything.

A huge thank you to Legola33 for getting us up and over our goal of 1k tonight! ✨ We've raised $1,208.00 for the #AACR. ✨ All rewards / incentives have been unlocked - but we're over our goal! Anyone have any ideas for stretch goals? :D Thank you thank you thank you all of you so very much <33

I saw something recently that said a strategy for adhd is you just need to commit to doing 30%. The full scope of 100% of a project is just too overwhelming. So just start with some thumbnails or sketches for now and then commit to another 30% another day or week. Any progress IS progress

Tabletop is about power fantasies which is why tonight we foisted enough gold on a burnt out grad student that she could get a better apartment and maybe have the mental space to write for herself again. No one look at me, @runesael.bsky.social that was SO LOUD.

Romance, as a whole, is boring. I’ve read precisely one book that had a romantic subplot that I didn’t instantly loathe and roll my eyes at.

Grimdark shit is boring and lazy.

Me: I just don't understand why I can't just out-think my anxiety and emotions and simply react and respond in the most ideal way every single time and never feel bad My therapist of eight years: *audibly loading gun*

Tomorrow, we do some dance games and some art. :) see you then. ✨

Hey, sorry about the lack of stream today. I think exhaustion caught up with me because I just woke up. See you tomorrow.

The wizards bit it to a goblin bomb, so now we're touring Faerun with a squad of four bards. :) I'll be back Saturday / Sunday evening with dance games, and then back to art on Monday. A huge thank you to Forge and J for the subs and Forge's generous donation to the #AACR <3 We're up to 250 now!

✨Good afternoon! Today I’ll be playing Baldur’s Gate 3 and attempting an honor mode run with all wizards!✨ I’ll also have my iPad set up for sketch rewards for #PlayersVsCancer :) Ever wanted art of your Tav? Today might be the day! See you at 1330 EST :D www.twitch.tv/runesael #bg3 #pvc #art

A good set today chasing arrows. Hit 20K in #ITL. I am bushed. Thank you to everyone who raided and everyone who came by to hang out and request songs. Tomorrow, we start our all-wizards honor mode run of #Baldur’sGate3 #BG3!

We just hit 100 USD for the #AACR and chat has chosen my next hair colour! It's ✨ teal! ✨ (I'll post photo evidence when I dye it - it'll have to wait a bit because I bleached my hair last week and it'll melt if I do it again this week, lol.)

So, today's stream is odd. We'll go 5-6:30 for some art, and then a quick break, and then come back for some dance games from 7-9pm. :) (And hey, a new emote?) Sorry for the schedule, sleep has been rude. ✨Reminder we're fundraising with #PlayersvsCancer for the #AACR! ✨ www.twitch.tv/runesael

Stream will be later today. Not enough sleep. See you around 3:30-4pm ish. <3

I miss actual plays. :(

And as a reminder, I’ll be streaming for the rest of September and October to raise money for this amazing organization. Cancer sucks. Let’s kick its ass.

✨Thank you to everyone who donated today for the #AACR with #PlayersVsCancer. ✨ My little stream raised $75 USD today. <333 Thank you to my amazing community for your big hearts. Our top donator, BigBearBee, got this little mushroom friend in return for their generosity:

We’re $25 away from chat picking my next hair colour! Join us tomorrow for more silliness, tape and goofy hairstyles :) (and art, of course.)

Waiting on a Photoshop update and had to run back to the pharmacy today - so we're getting a rather late start. We're tackling the final Stations and Starships species and doing some art for charity. 1550-2030 EST today. :) www.twitch.tv/runesael #playersvscancer #pvc #art #illustration #ttrpg
