The latest in my charity streams for the American Heart Association is TONIGHT from 5:00PM-6:30PM PST! We’ll be cozying up in onesies and playing the most ragebait-ey game I know, A Little to the Left, with giveaways for every fundraising milestone. Come join over on twitch.tv/DianaOfTheRose!

For those who enjoyed the Bad Bunny halftime show, I can’t recommend enough these two movies delving into Latin culture for the same “brought nearly to tears” rom-com energy. - In The Heights (Lin Manuel Miranda, feel-good Latin community energy) - Música (Rudy Mancuso, free on Prime)

By popular demand, the Sorcery: The Gathering sweatshirt is now available to everyone! There are two versions, a premium (which is slightly higher quality, more heavyweight, and a bit oversized for comfort) and a normal. That way we have two different prices for folks.

Can I just say how much I love the way TTRPG creators have such a great collective knowledge of games that are good for any given situation? I love when someone asks what sort of system they should use for their kids, or for cosmic horror, or for political games, and people hop in with great recs!

When someone seriously wrongs you, *they* don’t get to be the one to decide when it’s in the past and over with and not worth talking about anymore. *You* do.

I’m grateful for the support of 651 creators who donated their games, to over 25,000 for donating between $10-2,000 each. My cup is full and there are still 25 more days to collect donations.

Four hundred thousand dollars. The gaming community has raised $409,189 in just one week to support Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota with the No ICE in Minnesota charity bundle on itchio. I’m honored to be at the helm as the organizer,

Hey tabletop gamers, if you bought or were considering buying this bundle but got overwhelmed by the number of games to sort through, have I got the spreadsheet for you!! All 1,074 games tagged as "physical" sorted by play style, with language, engine, and genre notated to the best of my ability:

I'm doing a big fundraising push next week for the American Heart Association to celebrate and raise money for Heart Month! We'll be doing giveaways on our Discord for every donation milestone in the form of modules, journals, and so forth. If anyone wants to add to the sweepstakes gifts, email me!

I don’t know if I updated here yet, but remember how I said I was sleeping 12+ hours a day? And could go longer? Did some tests. Apparently it’s due to low Vitamin D. Like, a SEVERE deficiency. Lower than anything my doctor’s seen in this (extremely sunny) town before.

hey, so update with a litter robot, automatic feeders, a minimal con schedule this year, and a relative whi just moved to town who can help babysit I’m gonna be adopting two little guys soon

Time again to share my Stock Art Artists starter pack (with focus on TTRPG). go.bsky.app/2khFm1H If you happen to fit the bill, let me know.

We need to be taking the Precautionary Principle into account with technology waaaaaaaay more than we are. Now, more than ever.

no because if Sertraline is supposed to make people less depressed and anxious then why does it taste like THAT

Today, when audiences love short, quick cuts to cater to decreasing attention spans, SO MUCH of what makes a “good” YouTuber comes down to comedic editing. Overlays, emphasized captions, camera shake, all that stuff. …basically, pay your editors well. And editors, your field is about to explode.

The Professor from Money Heist (La Casa de Papel) is peak female gaze and I should not have to elaborate on why

Absolutely infuriating how incredible Heartwork is Stupid sexy rahrah and their beautiful ass soundscaping and the wonderful performances of their guests god what an ass

I put “House of Leaves” on hold at my local library, wish me luck

There are some Magic cards I love because they’re good, and others I love because they’re absolutely fucking ridiculous look at this little guy he has a gun

can I say something real fast I never liked the term “friendslop” for multiplayer non-story games

By the way I clean out my Instagram feed like 1-2 times a year* so if you see me un-add myself as a collaborator on a post, it’s just because the event has already passed! (*Otherwise my profle just looks like stacks and stacks of ads for events that happened months ago 😭)

A brief update regarding Matt Allen (Nur-D): He’s safe, and word has reached us that he’s requested for people to refrain from posting about the situation until him and his wife can make a statement. You can find him as @nurdrocks on most platforms. (Original post removed for respect.)

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

Just a friendly reminder, if you’re seeing a “storytime” video on TikTok and at ANY point you hear the creator mention an unrelated app BY NAME as if it’s part of the story: - It’s not - The story is made up - It’s an ad Usually they subtly namedrop it 1-2 times. It’s an undisclosed ad. Report it.

oh also the totally-not-a-Magic-the-Gathering-sticker merch is now available on the store for the public! dianaoftherose.com/products/def... There's also been some slight adjustments to the store to make some of the cooler merch more visible, so give the front page a scroll while you're there.

Prestidigitater-tots that’s it, that’s the tweet

The scene from 28 Days Later where Cillain Murphy walks into the church and is like “hello…?” And the look on the infected faces as they whip around, mouths open and frozen in place? The way the camera doesn’t zoom in, but just dashes between them? PEAK horror.

update, I made it a holographic sticker:

We see the end of the story. Not our story, but a story none the less. Come along with us for episode 2 of The Ballad of Heartwork. With @grantorwhatever.bsky.social as Hugh, @dianaoftherose.com as Agresta, & @rahrah.bsky.social. Available wherever you get your podcasts.

do you think if I make merch that just says “sorcery the assemblance” in shitty, plain text, I can get away with it? cause all the cool merch ideas are taken #mtg

Currently watching #Broadchurch, and it’s just WILD to me how season 1 was so compelling and the characters were so well written and then in season 2 they proceed to make EVERY SINGLE POSSIBLE BAD DECISION THEY HAD THE POWER TO It’s breaking my suspension of disbelief, NO ONE could be this stupid-

You can’t spell “menu” without me n’ u so clearly we should go to Cheesecake Factory for dinner instead of me eating any of the $200 worth of groceries I just got

Our story continues next week as @gamemastermonday.bsky.social & @dianaoftherose.com join us for episode 2 of The Ballad of Heartwork with @rahrah.bsky.social as the narrator.

AUGH I want a cat SO bad but I TRAVEL too much and it’d be IRRESPONSIBLE to have to BOARD it so often-

“You know what ruins a perfectly good meal?” “It’s the fear. The aftertaste of mortality. Desperation just soaks into the blood, even when you think you’re biting so fast they couldn’t possibly know they’re dead.”
