Going on 3 weeks of evening water rationing and tryna work without burning out. Nothing feels like it 'counts' but we do what we gotta

#artph ✨🍂

Last Nov 4, Cebu was ravaged by Typhoon Tino. I want to help my friends rebuild their homes bc this gov't won't. All the most relevant details are in the pics but don't hesitate to DM me here or shoot an e-mail at [email protected] for questions! 6 SLOTS OPEN! [COMMERCIAL RATE ON REQUEST]

We got lucky, others not so much. Sleep and mental weather hasn't been good but gotta keep on. There's another, bigger storm headed northwards and I worry for my friends. Climate grief really is something else

hmm

In this sense, post-colonial nationalism has historically been an anti-Indigenous project. In Latin America, Benedict Anderson noted in IMAGINED COMMUNITIES that creoles after independence wanted a new race through the miscegenation of settlers and Indigenous women.

and on the event day itself prior to the event starting....more arnis 😁 some booths in the courtyard featuring our friends from Dicerino, Fiddl., and so much more! Lalang was also doing handpoke tattoo in traditional Visayan designs!

Best event prep haha

I should be thanking y'all for giving me an unforgettable experience in Cebu!

Kamugnaan Weekend Media Dump Thread!

still recovering from the event yesterday but thank you to all who attended! big shoutout to our RPGSEA homie @goobernuts.itch.io for flying all the way to our island to be in the panel with us! It has been utterly exhausting organizing this and helping out amidst the quakes but we carry on 🙏🏽

A double feature today: members of the team are both at Kamugnaan sa Atua (at Atua Midtown, Cebu) on the left, and at Anik-Anik Popup Fair (at Canopy Coffee Naga City, CamSur) on the right. Come on down if you're in the area! #ArtPH

Got some extra (2nd pic) that will be sent directly to aid groups we managed to drop off stuff at USCTC jgh, will figure out international aid

Ayo sorry for the lack of updates there was a 6.9 magnitude earthquake that rocked Cebu 🇵🇭 recently. GB team here is ok but a lot of Cebuanos are struggling and we're helping out If yall wanna send some help to buy supplies my Gcash is 09683240791 (local) keeping this thread open n transparent

For friends outside the 🇵🇭 who want to help out victims of the earthquake here in Cebu, please send aid to: PayNow (for SINGAPORE ONLY) via the QR [DM if you need the number] Wise via @tracyt162 The aftershocks have not stopped over here but the outpour of aid has not stopped either. ❣

Thank you The Line and Lou Karnas having me on this project for @supergiantgames.bsky.social ! A dream come true to be part of one of my favorite games’ journey 😭😭😭

Kadungganan! The dev team, along with the fine folks at Balay Kasamtangan, are invited to speak at the INATO Radio Podcast! Tune in on 105.1 Tops Media Center at your local Cebu City radio freq OR check it out here when it goes live: www.youtube.com/@TopsMediaCe...

the reflexive bootlicking on the ph side of FB about the antivaxxer that finally got his shot is so annoying

I thought a good while about doing this given how everyone is hard up these days, and I also *don't* like asking for money. But here we are. Studying is expensive, and for Reasons, I can't take a loan this round. Please donate if you can! Otherwise, sharing helps.

Since today's discourse is on how "not everyone grew up with Nintendo", I'll reshare this: medium.com/@felipepepe/... And reinforce that this is systemic - a consequence of US hegemony. It's NOT a personal attack on American journos, youtubers & gamers, but rather a reminder of our differences.

I am very very tired from Cebu Artbook Fare, but it's really nice to see the local scene show up for each other, and get to talk history and do char creation with folks who have never touched a ttrpg. Super thankful for the invite despite the fact that my social batteries are at negative rn hahahaha

CABF Day 2!!! @playgubatbanwa.bsky.social @dylvillanous.bsky.social @falling-rhayne.bsky.social mike wazowski cornick

Martial exemplars of righteous action, word, and belief, the SARIMANOK KNIGHT takes to the field astride their bonded regal omen-bird as both a symbol of Akayu knightly virtue. #ArtPH #Art #TTRPG #RPGSEA #indiettrpg

Hoy Kadungganan! Here's an event calendar for the upcoming local events that Sword Isles Studios is going to attend. See you there! :) #ArtPH #Art #TTRPG #RPGSEA #indiettrpg

Remember when hbomberguy exposing multiple YouTubers’ plagiarism effectively ended their careers? Wish people had that same energy towards AI SlopTubers.

Pre-exhausted for the next few months

I don't really know how to show this off on bluesky properly, but my hand dyed yarn is now at a shop! Yunkisnow is a local boutique that hosts a lot of local crafters. I'm very happy for the opportunity to be on their shelves. 😍 www.facebook.com/share/p/1CSc...

My twitter is dead. I don’t wanna a burner. All I want is 27K bluski subs

Who's killing the journalists in Gaza?

would you believe if I told you i spent an entire night reverse engineering how knots of different types of lontar scrolls were done from the internet recreating them in several mockups to see which one can I use and what I can add that would not easily fall apart with holding together what is---

Eyo! here's a preview of the Lontar Zine we're selling in CABF next week. c/o Gubat Banwa's Creative Director @lntpblk.bsky.social

me going through Alcina's Historias again and having to sift through his paternalistic bs about "correcting" the culture of the Visayans

Ahoy! The developers of Gubat Banwa are going to table at the Cebu Art Book Fair! Catch them there on Sept. 6-7. See you there! #ArtPH #Art #TTRPG #RPGSEA #indiettrpg

The start of this essay captures a fascinating aspect of video games - the infinite possibility space we project on them before playing. What Jacob felt with the Prima Guide was something old game manuals did really well. Honestly, I'm more nostalgic for the WarCraft II manual than for the game lol

Citizen Sleeper fans have, in reference to her heritage, been painting Tala off the coast of Bantayan Island in wplace. Such a fun project! wplace.live

Rare official update post on this account, but I needed to work with the character limit. Thank you all again so much www.canva.com/design/DAGv1...

Ursula Le Guin: “The shift from denial of injustice to recognition of injustice can’t be unmade.... Once you see the injustice, you can never again in good faith deny the oppression and defend the oppressor. What was loyalty is now betrayal. From now on, if you don’t resist, you collude.”

Whew, been hella busy these past few, most of the stuff I've been working on cant be shared yet but Im down to show these works from earlier in the year. Done for Gubat Banwa's Quickstart+ Bundle.

Guys, let's help out Ahmed's family get food and treatments! Link is below, let's donate and share!

Oh wow right I gotta resize those, my bad. Will try to post em later

Back on this, lets gooo

Other hard lessons to learn: + Not all stories belong to you. + Don't just hire consultants. Hire talent from the cultures you're making games out of. + Put more BIPOC folks in leadership positions. + Support products from beyond America.

This is the TTRPG equivalent of a Thomas Kinkade painting.

Sometimes it’s hard to find a straight forward and simple rules video for indie games we love. So we made a quick How to Play for Break!! RPG. #ttrpg For your lazy players who don’t read the rules and arrives saying: I will learn as we play youtu.be/toyGZuOQi0k

TTGDA statement about sensitivity around art depictions in games.

I was one year into the practice when this vid was taken iirc, green as grass and accident prone. But Im thankful GM Verano gave me that extra time each morning, hella strengthened my knees

To it then, lots of work to show off from these past few months of grief and grinding. All in due time, but August whew lets do this
