who do I gotta talk to so I can recruit Orville Peck into larping

wait why is the bed in date everything almost a carbon copy of me in 2021/2022

Dear Jeff Bezos, 🖕 Signed, People who value a free press

Final Intercon W schedule! (Finalish, since I've got two waitlisted games.) Are we in anything together? Want to get a meal or a dip in the pool? Maybe a tarot reading at Bite Club? Let me knowwwwww

hey just a quick shout to girlfriend collective where the fuck is Katie, the vers top you want to introduce me to? I click the email and all I see is two women, each wearing a unitard. which one is Katie?

disturbing uptick in "we post tweets and talk about them." servile behavior tbh. bluesky is not the Greek chorus for the main character action of twitter, that's loser thinking, have some pride. twitter is dead. post bangers. thank you

I need to get this and start wearing it to work

History is repeating itself. There were more LGBTQ people removed from government during the lavender scare than were suspected communists during the red scare. They only really taught the latter in history classes. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lavende...

cw: cycle of abuse, trauma specifically the Franke/Hildebrandt case Just a big shout out there to those who might also be on a personal journey actually unpacking and processing your fawning and/or fleeing trauma responses, The House of My Mother by Shari Franke HITS WAY TOO HARD. chapter 49. whew.

AAA is fucked. AAAA is fucked. AA is fucked. Indie is fucked. It's all fucked. I've never seen more across-the-board devastation in this industry in the decade-and-a-half I've been here.

House Rs just passed the budget resolution, the first step in their process to enact a bill that'd kick millions off Medicaid & cut SNAP down to just $1.60 per person per meal on avg while cutting taxes for the top 0.1% by $278k - all while increasing the debt 🧵on what's to come and WHERE TO FIGHT

literally the big takeaway from this (other than Allie's hot character) is that I've successfully converted another TTRPG person to larping *Kerri Colby voice* another one, thank you

sometimes to motivate yourself into packing for conventions, you have to text the cute vtm writer you've been casually seeing for a few weeks and tell him "I am not allowed to flirt with you until I pack for Intercon" I mean I'm still in bed procrastinating, but that's the First Step, at least

Casual reminder that my latest creation The Ultimate RPG Worldbuilding Deck is coming out in June! www.simonandschuster.com/books/The-Ul...

We'll have to wait for the overnight report probably, but it appears we hit 69 at 4:20p. (the first climate report missed it and went with the 4p high of 68)

@oddrolls.bsky.social sent this to me and I SAID IM FINE I LITERALLY AM FINE

I uwu, therefore, I am

for the love of God. fucking honestly. “controversial salute.” it’s a nazi stiff arm salute. literally everybody knows this. “controversial” is a chickenshit word generally (what purpose does its use serve? hint: an editorial, not journalistic one) but when we’re talking about public nazi shit gah

If you know me outside of LARPing, you've probably heard me gushing at some point over the last several months about the impact NotACon made on me. I'm not saying NotACon 2 is absolutely going to change your life, but how do you know unless you apply?

amber actually proofread your fucking bluesky posts challenge: impossible

A movie you've watched more than six times, using only GIFs

every day I log onto costar for a little nudge from the universe that I'm on the right track in this "healing from a year and a half of emotional abuse from my ex partner" journey and every day costar kicks me directly in the solar plexus. just absolutely boots me into the goddamn pit.

This story can't be repeated enough. The GOP is lined up behind the guy who is so incompetent that his quasi-gov't agency did this. They're confirming his highly questionable nominees & hurting the American people. And "accidentally"? It was stupidity, not accident. www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...

The battle of our day is no longer about Democrats versus Republicans or left versus right. The choice right now is democracy or dictatorship. And we're sliding faster than I ever thought possible into the latter. Everyone must choose which side they’re on. Now.

happy presidents day

Hey. It’s still a class war. Don’t lose sight. This is workers vs. oligarchs. We don’t need to fight over scraps.

if you've seen me play nothing but Chromakopia on Spotify for weeks, yes I'm okay but no I do not have a normal relationship with my parents or my existential state

the single most un-american and anti-constitutional statement ever uttered by an american president

as someone who's been working diligently in therapy on repairing my life-long, fraught relationship with boundary placement & enforcement, it feels so wonderful on days like today to have some of your closest people tell you they're so proud of your growth

We won’t disappear just because you change a website.

give me a paid canva account and I am unstoppable

damn the spy museum here in dc looks so ominous in the snow storm tonight

I make quality content sometimes

Go birds.

check out this interview with myself and SJGames' CEO @meredithplacko.bsky.social where we talk about this union and how it's felt ! also appreciate the number of times i repeat myself in a single sentence

the vibes have not been super great here lately but at least there are moments when you wake up to a small, vibrating serotonin machine cuddled up to you

HEY IT'S JUSTIN'S BIRTHDAY AND HE IS AN ABSOLUTE SUNSHINE HUMAN HAPPY BIRTHDAY JUSTIN

We're getting up to something over herein Baker House. Maybe you'd be interested. www.kickstarter.com/projects/lum...

Kendrick Lamar's Superbowl performance is why funding arts and humanities matters. We have Kendrick because his teacher introduced him to poetry and writing.

I saw a really beautiful raven today and that was a big bird win for me, specifically

Comprehension kicks y’all’s ass lol

if Kendrick Lamar can drop the biggest song of the year, win multiple Grammys for providing a master class in hating, AND perform the song at the super bowl with one of his opp's exes literally crip walking on their grave, you too can harness being a hater to make it a force for good

it just honestly feels like emails and phone calls and boycotts are not inline with the scope and scale of the threat we face anymore, and have proven ineffectual in this particular conflict. I don't believe sitting politicians have the strength to defend us even if roused

"My stand, Not Like Us, allows me to bring whoever I wish back to life... Only to then make them witness me kill them again and again, every time greater and greater than before!"

More of this, America.

this week's therapy reflections that might help others: no one is entitled to be a witness to your sorrow. no one has a claim on watching you crash out. it's okay if you keep your suffering close to your chest (or within the confines of a larp) it doesn't make your hurt and worry any less valid (c)
