It's friday. If you had unlimited resources, what would you be doing this weekend?

Yesterday was delicious. How was your day?

I’m a bitch. I need to be held.

Another date with the night

Girls don't want you to buy them dinner. They want a fierce warrior woman to show up and kill the gods just to free them from their prison.

What a sad and beautiful article.

My Hawke. She’s a slut.

How do you answer your phone?

Girls don't want flowers. They want to be split in half by a minotaur who's pinned them against the walls of the labyrinth.

Been rereading Tales of Voracious by @katebullockwrites.bsky.social. I've read a lot of erotica since ToV, and I gotta say that it's still the best monster erotica I've cum across 🥰

💖GAME DESIGNERS & OTHER CREATIVE FOLKS!💖 I'm putting an @itch.io bundle together to help my friend @dianamoon.bsky.social who is a super cool queer Latine person in need of mutual aid for health expenses & survival expenses & deserves our help! Please submit your projects!💖 itch.io/jam/help-dia...

I have so many questions about Root. Am I allowed to just ask @patrickleder.bsky.social? Namely. Why aren't there Sebastopol geese? Or silkie chickens? Or Eider ducks? Where are the water and domestic fowl? How do they feel about the eagles having all the power? I want a silkie dynasty.

See a web, post a web

I had a date with the night. How was your yesterday?

Happy Tuesday. What’s bringing you joy today? Even if it’s fleeting. Mine is lamb kebabs and rice.

Reblusking this one because, well, here's the deal. Swords Without Master has been in issue 3 of Worlds Without Master for ~10,000 years. And it's time. It's just time for it to leave the nest. Time for it to find its own way in the world. So we're gearing up for a new, stand-alone edition.

Twas the week after Gen con and all through the office the workers were snoozing from sheer exhaustion.

Funny scrolling through Feeld while at Gen con. It’s a lot of “huh. I know them.”

I am begging y’all to stop dming me or emailing me to work on Masks 2e. I promise you that’s not my job. 💜

Anyone at Gen con up for helping us run some one hour games? Our gms dropped.

Day two of Gen con set up. Riding high with a migraine. But look at this beautiful sign!

If anyone is going to Gen con and wants to run some paid board game demos, please let me know!

Still need a handful of GMs. People are helping though! Please get the word out!

I’m desperately looking for gms to help run a game or four! Please please spread far and wide!

I just had a GM drop from two major slots at our special events. I need a GM at Gen con for Thursday and Saturday evening! Root and Masks!

Community managers are a branch of futurism. Just sayin.

If you’re going to Gen con and want to be on a panel or three lemme know!

If you are going to Gen Con and interested in running paid board game demos, please let me know!

I don’t have time to get sick before Gen con.

What’s giving you hope right now?

Every year people are like “here’s how to find me at Gen con” and every year I’m like “don’t find me. *hiss*”

If you have skills that will make gaming better, and the capacity to mentor or help others in your field of expertise, help. The industry only grows when we help each other. I will always make the time to help folks learn from the bullshit mistakes I've made.

What’re you looking at, punk?

If you see this post your getaway vehicle

Say it after me: Chat GPT is not a search engine. It does not scan the web for information, it just generates statistically likely sentences. You cannot use it a search engine, or as a substitute for searching. Now. Please never use an LLM for information searches ever again.

It’s new chapters day on the p4tr30n. A new monster. A new chapter of my urban fantasy novel. And a new monster short story. Horror instead of spice. Can you dig it?

Gamer ick: people who interrupt conversations or play to say a movie quote and then need to explain it when no one gets it. Like just don’t. Keep your movie quotes far far away from me.

Gamer red flag: Lone wolf characters. Why did you come to a social cooperative game to play an antisocial asshole that makes it harder on the GM and the players? I will not fight you to keep you in the game. Get out.

I've been a community builder for 20 years. Are people interested in the lessons I've learned and how I do this job?

I'm gonna let you in on a community secret. When you get called in/out for breaking the code of conduct in a community, and you rage quit or throw a fit, you make our jobs easier. We don't care if you're in the community. Your existence doesn't impact us. We have nothing to lose by you leaving.

Y’all. I cried.

My *favorite* (read: most hated) part of Bsky is watching all the people who got chased off twitter in ttrpgs for racism and abuse and misogyny and ableism and queer hate re-enter. I see you. I remember.

Fan tip: Don’t tell someone their idea has been done before. They know or they don’t. It doesn’t matter. What matters is that creator telling it in their own way with their own words and message and point. Everything has been done before. But not by them.

Community hot tip: Communities forged around a cult of personality, as in, one charismatic person with all the authority and power, will always fail to be healthy. Anyone who gathers people around them but maintains control will prove themselves toxic at the first threat to their power.

How can I convince you to read my book?

Look. Here's your weekly community hot tip: There's no such thing as a "Safe" community. There are safer and less safe spaces. Safer for you may be in conflict with someone else's safety needs. Create spaces that work for you, but be mindful it may ostracize someone else. Be intentional.

I need some hope. Do you have some?

Your hot community manager for the day: being a reactive policy maker instead of a proactive policy maker will doom your community from the start. Be intentional.
