Here’s some sketches exploring one of my ideas for the creature from “The Terror” by Dan Simmons, and how I imagined it could work as a supernatural element while still able to be mistaken for a polar bear at a glance or in the distance~

Every instance of "AI democratizes the arts, you're classist and ableist and a gatekeeper for trying to stop it" is a slap in the face to the literally centuries of poor, disabled people making art on the margins and a crass lie in service of a machine that strips down and regurgitates dreams

Democratizing the arts looks like universal income, low-barrier grants for both emerging and working artists, well-funded municipal arts & recreation programs, vibrant third spaces, and a well-funded public school system with progressive curriculum. Not a free pass for corporate-owned slop engines.

I posted it as part of a response on a discussion about Iron Crown's creative decisions with #MERP, but I wanted to repost it separately. A part of my collection, treasured, loved and often scribbled in. My first game, my first campaign, and first stint as a GM. #FirstLove #TTRPG ❤️

“The children are always ours, every single one of them, all over the globe; and I am beginning to suspect that whoever is incapable of recognizing this may be incapable of morality.” ~James Baldwin

You know who’s not in the Epstein files? Undocumented immigrants Drag queens Trans people The poor, unhoused, marginalized and disabled The people you’ve been taught to hate weren’t involved in the sex trafficking ring. The billionaires were. The wealthy. The ruling class.

Starting on Friday Feb 6 for two weeks, #ArcDream will offer half-off everything and donate all proceeds (except S&H) to Stand With #Minnesota. (Note: The #DeltaGreen Handlers' Guide/Agent's Handbook slipcase will be back in warehouse on Feb 9 and is included.) Fuck ICE. Fuck Trump. Fuck fascism.

For Secret History of the Horse Sun, my Glorantha TTRPG project, I present Gorakiki, the Goddess of Insects! She is no primitive or simple being, either, and among trolls she is a goddess of civilization and infrastructure - it takes wealth to set up a Nest, and it repays that wealth with more.

Puntastic

my grandmother, an Auschwitz survivor, was Anne Frank’s neighbor in Amsterdam, and Oma thinks this comparison is perfectly apt

While independent bookstores are giving out free whistles, hosting protest sign making events, and donating proceeds to mutual aid, Amazon is *checks notes* providing technology that assists ICE in their terrorizing of communities. Independent bookstores deserve your support. Amazon does not.

Re-reading the classic RuneQuest 2e #TTRPG for the first time in decades. I love the Orlanthi Wind Lords’ ritual greetings and obligations.

Next step is done!!! Melta and multiemelta for the Sisters. #minipainting #warhammer #kitbash #warhammer40000

'I believe that introversion is my greatest strength. I have such a strong inner life that I’m never bored and only occasionally lonely. No matter what mayhem is happening around me, I know I can always turn inward.' Susan Cain

To grog, or not to grog, that is the question. Whether 'tis nobler in the dungeon to suffer the slings and arrows using THAC0, or to wear armor against a sea of goblins and by ascending AC end them. To die or to death saves. 😉

The surveillance camera at my local train station make look like a Japanese horror movie

I got back from a work trip this evening and look what was waiting for me! More classic RuneQuest awesomeness from @chaosium.bsky.social! The quality of their POD copies is really great. ⚔️ 🏺 #RuneQuest #ttrpg

It is 100% justified to hate bullies. Their whole fucking thing is punching down.

The No ICE in Minnesota charity bundle submission period is now open: itch.io/jam/no-ice-i... All games, free and paid, TTRPG and browser based-alike are welcome Submissions are open until January 26 & the charity bundle supporting a Minnesota based Immigrants' rights org will go live in February

I've submitted all my paid English language TTRPGs to this upcoming fundraising bundle... ...but they've already been on so many previous ones. These need titles, especially YOUR GAMES. I know it feels like "Another tragedy, another bundle..." but you can help. 😔

It’s interesting, as part of working on QW Glorantha to go back over Hero Wars and HeroQuest trying to find nuggets from Greg Stafford and Robin on how to present Glorantha. I’m reminded of why Hero Wars, despite being rushed out, electrified me.

If you are in the tabletop industry/ecosystem and you have been impacted by ICE, DM me or email me at [email protected]

“Get it all on record now — get the films — get the witnesses — because somewhere down the road of history some bastard will get up and say that this never happened.” Dwight D. Eisenhower, after visiting liberated concentration camps in April 1945

Just so we're clear, and so a tiny handful of wankers online don't create the wrong impression, the vast majority of your European friends are incredibly impressed by Minnesotans' courage against both the ice and ICE.

If you're living somewhere outside the USA, one thing you can do is pressure your leaders to boycott World Cup and Olympic events here.

When it comes to documenting ICE activity, remember what Eisenhower said at the end of WWII. "Get it all on record now - get the films - get the witnesses - because somewhere down the track of history some bastard will get up and say that this never happened."

Crucial Tip for Running a Mystery RPG #rpg #gaming

Today we celebrate the birthday of Steve Perrin, born today in 1946. Perrin was an American game designer and technical writer/editor, best known for creating the tabletop role-playing game RuneQuest for Chaosium. #StevePerrin

Our RuneQuest game has lately been basically about the PCs staging a coup in the Far Place, overthrowing Harvar Ironfist, and taking control of the Alone city state. Tonight should feature political intrigue to see if they can hold it… and of course I designed a new rules subsystem for that 😂😝

I'm looking for more work this month! You can find the different options and prices here. Happy to discuss ideas/concepts you have :) 🐺 ko-fi.com/wolfhidewint...

Just read the graphic novel bio of Bela Lugosi. Am I doing creativity wrong by not demanding scotch at gunpoint and suggesting suicide pacts to my colleagues?

'I'm sorry K9, but how old did you say!?' Happy Tom Baker day. Surely time for a national holiday, Yes?

“don’t GIVE him what he wants just let him DO whatever he wants!” - half the Democratic Party and also the ghost of Neville Chamberlain, probably

getting awful sick of hearing liberals use domestic abuser logic to chide protestors for property damage as the state murders people

Good summary of “don’t give him what he wants” from relatively comfortable white liberals.
