After a week off due to back issues, Solo TTRPG Thursday returns tomorrow at 6:30pm Pacific Time! Come join me at youtube.com/live/FigGRuy... and if you'd like to meet my character for Realms of Pugmire, watch this little video: youtu.be/jWGzgTGX8Pg

Trying a new system with Mythic GME tonight. My last two attempts I've put together "launching events" which led to stories that I wanted to go a specific direction. Realms of Pugmire - Onyx Path's "Future Primitive" 5e-style TTRPG - should make for a much better free form adventure.

A somewhat depressed look at what (but mostly why) I'll be playing with #MythicGME this year - Realms of Pugmire, by @theonyxpath.bsky.social www.screamingwyvern.com/2026/01/27/f...

Free-Form Solo RPGs, take 3 https://www.screamingwyvern.com/2026/01/27/free-form-solo-rpgs-take-3/

Join me for my #solorpg stream January 22 at 6:30pm Pacific, when my deep space research vessel becomes the home to dangerous flora from the beginning of time in The First Flora:Rise of the Vines by Slug People Games! www.youtube.com/live/VX02hUd...

why are we fucking with denmark has no one ever read hamlet THEY TALK TO SKULLS OVER THERE

Before the pandemic, I had a family #Pugmire game going. Then I moved to running games online and ended up with Pathfinder 2e. Maybe it's because I lost two Good Dogs but I'm missing Pugmire; if this becomes a SoloRPG for my channel or an actual campaign remains to be seen.

Forget taking a sick day from work for a "mental health day"; I want to take a sick day because I wake up *not* feeling grief about my lost dog, about my lost country, about my inability to protect my trans family and friends... Just one day where I don't want to collapse. As a treat.

Does TikTok exist just to upset me? https://www.screamingwyvern.com/2026/01/08/does-tiktok-exist-just-to-upset-me/

I'm not impressed by the new year. Fortunately, tomorrow @ 6:30pm Pacific I'm playing a #solorpg about flying through space looking for plant samples to research in Xenobotanist:The First Flora by #SlugPeopleGames. See my introduction with a link to the livestream here:https://youtu.be/stuzbtM4PCY

Everything is fine. There is nothing to worry about. it is vitally important that you STAY CALM. EVERYTHING IS FINE. #ttrpg #paranoia

Absolute crap start to the year with my wife's little Chester deciding it's time to move on. Let me go ahead and float one more picture of this cutie into the internet before we say goodbye. #dogsofbluesky

It is 2025. I have gotten my first tattoo celebrating #KingdomHearts. KH4 is expected to come out in two years. It is 2027. I have made additions to my tattoo. KH4 is expected to come out in two years. It is 2055. My arm has images of all my fandoms. KH4 is expected to come out in two years.

First two #solorpg streams of 2026 are scheduled, and I've recorded and edited the adverts/intro to the games. But all the video of the first game is half the volume of the second. Fortunately the problem areas don't show my face, so I can just re-record the audio. SlugPplGames deserves my best.

My wife and I haven't drank in two+ years, and my kiddo has no taste for it. She asked if we needed a bottle of the sparkling apple juice for New Years. This led to a discussion of how not drunk we wanted to be and ended with her suggesting ten bottles might get us "Whitein Sober."

Got my tickets for New Years Eve. It’s going to be a fun night!

I'm excited to say that, two weeks from tomorrow, I will be restarting my Thursday #solorpg streaming. I'm a lot less excited to have to figure out which one of the amazing games gets to christen the third year of the ScreamingWyvern stream. They're good solo rpgs, bront.

Love, love, love the Village Emporium games. I streamed them early in 2025; if you'd like to see a crazy middle aged man go herb hunting give them a watch... then buy this cozy game in their #solorpg bundle! youtube.com/live/Y2AWfW1... youtube.com/live/wPmOXn3...

The U.S. is giving dying mall vibes. I can't explain it, but you know I'm right.

We’re boiling the ocean and scorching the sky to avoid writing Lorem Ipsum, why are you so angry? Also, we admitted this six months ago when we weren’t doing anything, why is everyone noticing now that we have something happening?

My little channel is mostly playing Solo RPGs, with Tabletop Simulator being my tool of choice for streaming from my desktop. Watched the playthrough (youtu.be/TZQizFdlV8M) and this will work well - pop into Gimp, create a new card to import, even give it the same back so my deck is "spoiler free."

Me: Regularly streamed for 2 hours for an audience of 0; regularly preps for and runs TTRPGs online. Me, trying to plan a 10 minute YouTube video or a 1 minute Short: it's too scary i'm just a little idiot time to hide with my dachshund

Ok, slightly spoilery but most of the fans ran to the theater immediately... #FNAF2 reviewers - "It's so unrealistic that all the parents and adults would just ignore a child screaming for help." Younger GenX and Elder Millenials: "The first five minutes of the movie was the realistic part..."

Yes, Coal, I know you’re upset because dinner was late because we went to see a movie, but having stomach problems and double-barfing so we took you to the emergency vet seems counterproductive but also in line with your stubborn #dachshund self.

Any person who says they have never known a trans person, is a person who has never been trusted by a trans person.

Even one was stupid. Playing at zero tolerance like a bad principal at an elementary school. When someone tortures you, and then they can’t anymore, you’re finally free to speak your mind and you deserved to.

You would think that a company that relies on algorithms, like TikTok does, would be able to figure out how to target advertisements. Repeatedly inviting me to go Live on their platform when they've blocked me every time for "unoriginal content" (you know, storytelling) is kinda bullcrap.

How to be a good GM: Think creatively about the story your players will be encountering. Prepare a reasonable amount; leave room for surprises. Get a good sleep the night before and don't go into the game hungry. Have a panic attack 10 minutes before game time. Check to see if everyone had fun.

#GameNightQuotes: "Can I trip the ooze?" "Do you have a spatula?!"

I think it's statistically impressive that, on an average of once per day, I see or read something that makes the #GoodPlace point system seem unrealistically optimistic. I think I lost a few million points reading a 2011 Captain America limited series thanks to an archer.

Dungeness & Dragons

So, after a year of streaming almost every Thursday, I think it's time to accept ... my November winter allergies have started and if I don't put the mic down for a month or to, the "stream" will just be flying spittle and gagging.

Um, if they have cats they can get cat grass which isn’t that expensive and will entertain their cats. And then the cats will leave sprays of grass in random places. Which leads to more grass touching.

Ok, hear me out: But done in the style of the Bashki movie. I will accept anyone countering with Rankin/Bass.

New awareness campaign

@mattle.wtf - and now the hair lurks eternal.

It's Thursday night, I've got a costume (well, my RenFest outfit and a bad wig) so join me at 6:30 pm Pacific tonight for my last Spooky Stream and #deadbydaylight. I've picked up my beloved Animatronic, and so many low ranked survivors are going to get free points tonight...

Yesterday I saw the Batman/Deadpool crossover comic will include a short John Constantine/Doctor Strange crossover and I cannot begin to express how much I want this. Forget "Good Cop, Bad Cop", this is "Chief of Police, Cop that Everyone Is Terrified Of But Nobody Will Say Why."

I am furious that Social Media didn't tell me until now that the creative team for the current hilarious, kindly sexy, and brilliantly creative #Supergirl book is @mooncalfe1.bsky.social, a Trans Woman, and @tamrabonvillain.bsky.social, a Trans Woman, so I could be loving it even more.

What happens when a #gamemaster takes time off from tactical planning to play #deadbydaylight? What happens when a man who grew up on turn based CRPGs plays a first-person style horror game? Come find out, 6:30pm Pacific Time, at www.youtube.com/watch?v=yDfP... or twitch.tv/screamingwyvern!

I love being a #ttrpg #gamemaster because I can look my social anxiety in the eye and say, "They come back every session, I am doing a good job." Also, I've had an anxiety attack for the past six hours that they were going to just ghost me, WHICH INCLUDES THE THREE HOURS OF THE GAME.

I have #marvelunlimited and I'm reading through the Onslaught Saga, and if I had a dollar for every time a Wayne's World "NOT!" enters a conversation, I'd be able to buy a graded copy of the final issue. Which isn't that impressive, but it's enough to make me hurt from the crings.

Having a Spooky Month for my Thursday stream - but so happy that in November I can come back with the card version of #mythicgme by @tanapigeonwmg.bsky.social! Yes, rolling dice is awesome but when I’m streaming there’s already so much on-screen to track… having the GME on the side will be great!

Traditionally, I stream #SoloRPGs and #TTRPG planning every Thursday at 6:30pm Pacific. But, with it being #spookyseason and my attempt to run a Horror Pathfinder session last year ending up so bad, I'm spooking myself with #deadbydaylight for October. www.youtube.com/live/GpFAFyr...

“Grocery Bags at Freddy’s” did not capture the terror of the original.

There is something tragically hilarious about a guy at a Renfest - with his wife and kids in costume - in his second amendment tee and his "MAGA" hat. It's like one of those moths with the eyespots, only they're in the desert surrounded by gay lizards.

#dachshund time

Guys I think we’re gonna need more than three ghosts this Christmas Eve

My Paranoia #solorpg game with #mythicgme continues tonight at 6:30 pm Pacific, youtube.com/@screamingwyvern or twitch.tv/screamingwyvern but you know what the world needs for the rest of Halloween? Someone who looks like your dad trying #DeadByDaylight for the first time.
