Lord of the Rings but it's rangers and druids rescuing all of the stray wargs.

After starting to learn to draw I have even less of an idea why you'd use AI for any of this shit.

🧑🏾‍⚖️ INNOCENT.

Love how a lot of FNAF Content Creators will have "(insert mystery or idea) Solved!" and then the description has "Theory" in it. I know it's intentional but it's still funny. Trust me I have a whole rant about Scott Cawthon, the FNAF writing and him mainly catering to the theorist creators.

Hello all you beautiful people out there in cyberspace, just a reminder we are still taking applications for GMs, players, and techs until the middle of January. Sign up to bring the noise, bring the funk, and bring the love this Black History Month!

Today was my last day volunteering/cleaning cat kennels at PCV for a month. I volunteer for Spokanmal, which has to restructure their volunteer program but they're also closing their doors for the time being. I don't know why but I'm a tad frustrated. Press release was issued. (cont.)

Nice. D&D is great way for team building. I've thought about going to schools I used to cover and offer to run D&D games for their teams. Cheney, Wolf Point, Leavenworth and even Cashmere would probably be receptive. Medical Lake and Ritzville would probably run me out of town.

State of ai

Just want to say that if one of your biggest accomplishments in 2025 was staying alive in this hellscape we’re currently in, that I’m proud of you.

I kind of want to do a mash of this, specially my TaVs/OCs and their pokemon teams.

4 games that defined my 2025.

So I randomly got the idea of starting the prompt game #critterary in a few days! ☺️ Hoping to further my reach & chat more, especially on my biggest interest! (I saw there was already an animal week prompt, but hopefully this expands out more 😅) Hoping to see everyone in Jan! 🦊 #pretendpanel

#pretendpanel Dec. 27 I'll post my Cat Lover's Bundle on DMs Guild. I want to write more fiction, but I also found my passion for writing DND and TTRPG materials so I'd like to focus on that too. That is my cat on the cover :) www.dmsguild.com/en/product/5...

#pretendpanel Dec. 26. I've kind of already shared my struggles with Imposter Syndrome this year. I think to achieve my writing goals is to be kind to myself and my work, not be afraid to promote my work, find joy, and rest when I need to and give myself grace.

#selfpromoSaturday Christmas is over but you can still get some late digital stocking stuffers for your DM or players. How about the Waterdeep Bundle. Subclasses, adventures, encounters, and shops set in the City of Splendors. site.dmsguild.com/product/5500...

We need your help to become a CiC (community interest company) We’d love to provide mindful & educational programmes & raise money for sanctuary land Do you know anyone who could support us in fundraising for the start-up costs? gofund.me/327a6dea0 Thank you 💚 #rescueanimals #animalsanctuary

My cat is chirping at the Pokemon on screen. Either she's trying to talk to them or talking shit.

There's Yule. The great winter dragon Nicolanadrax who showers everyone with gifts. It's usually generic trinkets a person could use unless it's something specific. Usually people wish for gifts for different people like friends and families, in addition to what they get for each other.

Ho Ho Ho-douken!

This Christmas, I have just one wish for you: Take a moment to really see the older people in your life. Let them know they’re loved, valued, and never invisible. Share a smile with an elder you don’t know. Offer a warm holiday greeting. Small gestures carry enormous power. Love,
 Lynda 🎄✨

Getting a Pokemon game for Christmas was an unofficial tradition for me. I got yellow when I was a kid. Y when I got back home from WP (more on that later), OR two years after and Shield when it came out. I got Legends ZA for myself this year. Y(X) and Kalos have a special place in my heart 🧵

Merry Christmas, one and all!

Reposting some of my best pieces this year, so how about some Felica (with serve bot) #anime #hayseydraws

Merry Christmas and Happy Birthday to like half of your favorite fighting game characters.

Have a great day to those celebrating and sending solidarity to those for whom today is a tough one x

After listening to my coworkers rant on about their experiences with retail and fast food workers (we all work at the Arches) here's a reminder to be nice to retail and fast food workers for the next several days.

greetings Bluesky fambly and frins ❤️ we would like to wish you Peace, Love and Joy this holiday season and thank you for being our friends ❤️💜 😽 💕 💕 💕 🎶 I'm so glad we had this time together 🎶 carol burnett

Happy Festivus everyone!

If you begin Star Trek: Voyager episode Spirit Folk at exactly 11:49:35 on New Year's Eve, Ensign Harry Kim will kiss a cow as the clock strikes midnight. Join in a very dumb annual tradition and start 2026 off on the right hoof.

This is how I'm going into 2026. I don't know if the smile on Joshua's face is edited (as a comment on the op pointed out) bc I didn't watch the fight and highlights cut away from that last exchange but we all had that smile when Paul got KO'ed.

It me, going into 2026

Petfinder has been Broken AF but you can still view these guys and send an app here: www.petfinder.com/member/us/md... Please give these beautiful cats a chance at a home for the holidays. They have been waiting so so long.

I think people who constantly spout “adapt or die” shit don’t realize how good they had it, what they’ve lost and how bad this is going to get. (I especially side eye “journalists” who do this as though they don’t think they’ll be next.) Anyway, ramble over, enjoy things made by people, please. 💖

I don’t want to have to look at games the same way I have to scrutinize writing, art, video, music and I suspect the “get used to it” arguments are the result of others reaching their fatigue limit. I get it. But I’m a streamer, creator, writer, performer and I can’t buy the “inevitable” line.

Wincing as I follow the SLOP DETECTED account because I want to know, but I also kinda don’t want to know as I fear we are headed towards a really dark place for games (and art in general) where nearly everyone is using a form of genAI and we’re all going to have differently drawn lines in the sand.

When you're watching TV and the commentators start singing a song you sing your cat and she reacts.

THE GOAT IS HERE

This morning I am envisioning a healthier and more generous world 💙💜

Having a weird thing break right before stream? Huge, if true. (It was... it was true.) But I'm live on #Twitch and needing that coffee more than ever. Have some holiday related games to take a look at and maybe more power washing or just chilling with ducks! 💖 twitch.tv/urbanbohemian

#pretendpanel Dec. 20 Hmm. Good question. I just want to feel like that my writing is making a difference. Sure there's writing for yourself, but I feel like we as writers and creatives need to put out more for folks to consume so they're not just consuming AI junk food all the time.

#pretendpanel Dec. 19 Write a novel and complete the process. I did it this past year I just never finished that last revision and the story wasn't where I wanted it to be. I could try to finish that particular book, but I've decided to place those characters in my DMs Guild materials.

I love this approach when it comes to talking about A.I. I have no interest in using it as a writer or a TTRPG designer or seeing it. A.I. is cheap and it's lame and so are those who tout it. It will never give you the satisfaction you get when you actually create something, errors and all.

Somewhat inspired by Ethan Hawke dropping one of the sickest anti-AI lines in an interview on CBS Sunday Morning, I realized we need to start changing how we talk about AI. Had a brief #Twitch moment about it. I don't simply hate AI. I have a calm loathing of it, like Lex Luthor loathes Superman. 😒

Watching Wyatt Sicks and Psycho Circus face off in AAA. In another reality Pennywise ran the Maine wrestling territory and had death matches against The Sheik in Michigan. He'd also make appearances in ECW and bury Shane Douglas. Shane would bury Pennywise in shoot interviews worse than the Kliq.

Watch out snow! Clearopathra coming at ya!
