My #secretsamol piece that I did for @tapetraveler.bsky.social, in which I faced my greatest artistic challenge; drawing two people interacting. In the end i was pretty happy with how it turned out. #friendsatthetable

The neopets ttrpg playtest Google doc is kind of a digital whale fall if you think about it

Canva would be so much better if it just let you easily look through all of the art assets they have instead of endlessly prompting you to use their slop generator

Union workers solved the trolley problem, you're welcome

Eat that mysterious unlabelled jerky in your work breakroom. It will heal you

visual design but especially layout is for some reason so much harder for me to do digitally than irl.... i need to touch the components

Texas is a state where all the major cities are clustered close to various borders because they, too, are embarrassed to be here. The state flower is cotton. The state animal is roadkill.

people always laugh when bears run away from housecats because they're so much bigger but like. imagine you were in the woods & you ran into a weird little guy that looks kinda like you but like 1/5th the size & his head is shaped weird & he is running toward you full tilt yelling. what would you do

Had a dream I was rifling through someone else's tarot deck and found such cards as "rain on our railways but not on our mudcrabs" and "donbovrian yaoi"

The one good thing about people loudly proclaiming their use of ai for concept art is when it makes a bunch of normal people post their fucked up little stick figure sketches that they used as prelim for some amazing work of art

“I miss blockbuster video” the library has every dvd totally untouched and I never see you there

Click this to see which games you own but have yet to rate on itch: itch.io/library/thin... Remember that creators see your reviews and especially any comments you include with them. It can really bring someone a lot of joy if you like their game. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The hard part about cutting your own mullet is that sometimes you look like this guy and there's nothing you can do about it

also if YOU want indie ttrpgs in your library, request them! get your friends to request them! Use them when they come in- check them out, run games in the space, etc. Multiple requests for an item makes it way more likely that it'll get purchased and circulation encourages future ttrpg buying 🫶

Creator Day is over but my games continue to be five dollars until Wednesday. Come through, leave a review?

All my games together are 5 dollars today! Fight a wizard, build a shrine, roleplay cats like you're ten years old on the playground itch.io/s/169583/big...

Playing bg3 several years late; was immensely disappointed that you couldn't get the circus dinosaur to join the clown fight

You should go and run a ttrpg for strangers

Some of these silksong bosses have me feeling like the ff14 players in nl's ff14 rant 😔

If you enjoyed a game on Itch, leave a comment! Honestly, it really brightens a creator's day. And it's a big encouragement for others who may be interested in getting that game. Itch hides reviews from the game page, so I find comments more useful in the long run. Like a game? Comment away!

Got some new ceramics buddies back from the kiln today :] mini godzilla is sooo small and I'm in love with her

Running the movie program at the library will have you forming opinions on DVD titles screens

HEY YOU! 🫵 were you a child obsessed with the warrior cats series? are you interested in tabletop games about insular little animal communities? I think you should check out Battle Cats and tell me what you think of it! ratvortex.itch.io/battle-cats

Coworkers discussing hill house, tried to not unleash my essay on why the Netflix series is a bad adaptation

I'm late to #fattrewind but here's some of my favorite pieces from the last few years

Lrt is making the gears turn in my head about battle cats.... I already have a sizable portion of the world building section dedicated to the social rules of the colonies and I feel like I could push that further...

good morning, i wrote a manifesto about a new direction for game design / play possumcreek.medium.com/the-expressi...

My stance that nobody asked for on rules in ttrpg is that most games should be played as close as possible to 'as written' at least once, even with the rules you think are dumb as you're reading them, and then you can do your remixing and homebrewing

I apologize for my earlier post that insinuated that Spider-man (2002) was released in 2003. I hope everyone affected can find it in their heart to forgive me

Scientist from Spider-man (2002): I have created a genetic Frankenstein of a spider. It is sure to outcompete any other arachnid in its range if released. Other scientist: where shall we keep it Scientist from Spider-man (2002): plastic boxj

It's wizard wednesday my friends ratvortex.itch.io/the-wizard

The biggest con this side of the millennium was convincing people that local small business owners are not, on average, little hitlers
