I'll say more when I can focus a bit, but for now ... While I'd love to stay in games, I'm also open to editor positions elsewhere in the publishing world. Fiction would be lovely. Before joining the games industry, I spent a decade and a half in higher ed roles that inform my work today.

I guess I can say it now: I'm one of the folks hit by the Paizo layoffs. My last day will be in early July. I'm devastated. I love the folks I've worked with the past three years. I love the fans. I love the games we made. If you have an opening for a remote editor, I'd love to hear from you.

"I’m unionizing because I love my workplace culture, my coworkers, and the game that we make. Unfortunately, Hasbro leadership has shown they are far less invested in those things than we are."

Career progression and pay is an important issue for UWOTC-CWA members. Every employee deserves to have clearly defined performance metrics, reliable expectations for pay, and a clear path forward in their career growth. unitedwizardsofthecoast.com/news/2026-05...

Alright, I'm going to talk about one of my biggest reasons for unionizing on the Arena team. Forced relocation, aka "RTO" (Return to Office), "WFH protections" (Work From Home protections), or more recently "Ways of Working." Buckle in for a thread.

We’re pleased to share that UWOTC-CWA has a scheduled election date! While WOTC still has the chance to voluntarily recognize our union before then we're looking forward to voting and winning recognition of our union. ✊

WotC declined to voluntarily recognize our union by Friday, May 1st. While we're disappointed in this delay, together we remain strong in our convictions. We look forward to sitting down at the bargaining table so we can make Arena better for workers, for Wizards, and for our players. #UWOTC-CWA

Big news! We're offering a big bundle of subscription to different independent media websites. These are all very cool people who have been working with me to conceive of whatever is next for worker-owned journalism. Half-off subscriptions for a month, and your existing Rascal sub is comped!

Wizards of the Coast has issued their first response to our announcement of unionization. I am glad that they agree that workers are the lifeblood of the company, however it is important to note that we tried and failed to raise our voices for years about this stuff and were unheard.

I am so so proud of my fellow game workers taking this big step to unionize their workplace. I've been there—it's terrifying! We should all commend their bravery and solidarity. Wizards of the Coast must do the right thing and voluntarily recognize their union.

Hello World, we’d like to introduce ourselves. We the workers of the Magic: The Gathering Arena team have come together to unionize as United Wizards of the Coast - CWA! 🧵 unitedwizardsofthecoast.com/news/announcing-united-wizards-coast-cwa

Feeling a little vulnerable putting this out there as I don't typically feel comfortable asking for financial help but here goes nothin' Now that the initial scary diagnosis part is over, I'm now entering the scary US Healthcare part. Any help at all is appreciated, even just a share. Thank you 💜

Editors are the proletariat of the publishing industry. We are being pushed out by machines because our labor is seen as replaceable. We get paid dogshit by most companies. But w/o us, machines homogenize and fail to detect critical context and sensitivity problems. W/o us, your book looks bad.

The Plotweaver team has some very neat stuff up their collective sleeve—especially for game designers who want to publish their own creations. If you've been curious about the Cosmere RPG but want to create & play in your own settings, keep an eye on Plotweaver.

Welcome to Project Blacklight, an AP development project with BlackwaterDnD. Applications are open now, and close April 26th at 11:59pm PST. We are so excited for this project - it's our biggest one yet, and the one we are the most proud of. Want to get involved? Check out this 🧵!

We are delighted to announced that the Cosmere Roleplaying Game is an Origins Awards Finalist in two categories: Best Roleplaying Game and Best Miniatures! We are absolutely honored to be nominated. Thank you to our incredible RPG team behind this awesome game.

I always enjoy Levi's perspectives and resources on game design, and this is no exception.

It's also up! It's also handy! It's also free!

The fact that this is sticking is *extremely* good, and I'm frankly surprised every time I remember it that it hasn't had an impact on the AI bubble already. You *don't own* anything you generate (and shouldn't, even in the imaginary land of an ethical generator).

🪻 HEY, LESBIANS! I'm slowly gearing up to put Lessons in Bitter Annihilation, a TTRPG about lesbians and comphet, into print. If you are a lesbian and do: 🎨 Illustration 🖱️ Graphic design 🖥️ TTRPG layout design Please share your portfolio in the replies! Trans lesbians especially encouraged 🧡🩷💜

The floor plan for the planned ICE concentration camp in Social Circle, Georgia:

Well, would you look at that? Jokes aside I am truly so excited to be working with the rest of the team to bring you some incredible stuff for Plotweaver, and I can't wait for you to see what @kiennas.bsky.social and I are cooking up for Project Folio specifically!

Surprise, I'm co-leading one of the core setting books for Plotweaver alongside @anarisis.dylangrinder.com! It's been an incredible time so far with these folks, and I can't wait for you all to see what we've been cooking 😊💖

Plotweaver is taking the Cosmere RPG's systems and bringing them to even broader horizons. I'm very excited about the team we've put together for this.

Plotweaver is currently getting developed by a wonderful group of folks! So, please read (and share!) below about the people making this awesome game 🧵

holy shit

Today I saw ICE gas little white kids in the streets of Portland with chemical weapons. Imagine what they're doing to brown and black kids in the detention camps

It's been fun seeing The Consultants lose their mind about how they don't get this ad, which is the coolest shit she's done yet. (Also, yes, that's Matt Mercer, who I've come to learn since this ad dropped is more famous than Michael Jordan.)

Federal paramilitaries running up on the rooftops to fire irritants and flash bangs down into a peaceable assembly full of little kids

A little girl in Portland, OR after being tear gassed by ICE. what the actual fuck.

I'm going to print this image out and hang it on my wall because the idea that this exists should fill everyone with absolute boiling fucking rage every day.

I think it is human to want spaces where you, personally, can find some respite from the horrors of the world. I also think that expressing a desire for shared hobby/interest spaces to be "apolitical" or a "refuge from doomscrolling" betrays the fact that you really don't get it. Like, at all.

Resisting the might-makes-right order, in solidarity with the peoples of Palestine, Venezuela, Cuba and Greenland. Boycott, divest from, or exclude from contracts these complicit US companies.

ICE just gunned down ANOTHER person, beating a man half to death before shooting him at point blank range. What the fuck are we doing? ARREST ICE NOW. PROSECUTE ICE NOW. I will not rest until every single one of these murderers is held accountable to the communities they terrorize.

ICE is now responsible for 66% of the homicides in Minneapolis this year.

From this moment forward (and before, but clearly now): -If you work for ICE. -If you vote for money for ICE. You are complicit. This is the gestapo. You're on the wrong side. You can't pretend not to know.

Not exaggerating when I say that the collective action in Minnesota will be studied for generations if not centuries to come

The United States has officially withdrawn from the World Health Organization. This is a shameful move that puts both Americans and people all over the world at greater risk from disease outbreaks, which require international collaboration to contain.

ICE kidnapped a 5-year-old and sent him alone to a facility in Texas. Hell isn't hot enough.

The first Plotweaver newsletter has gone out! mailchi.mp/brotherwiseg... In this month's newsleetter, we show off the roadmap for Plotweaver, an internal playtesting update, results from the Plotweaver survey, and some cool art!

Spraying pepper spray directly into the eyes of a detained person who’s already fully subdued

Couldn’t recommend this position more! The Partner team is absolutely incredible with some of my favourite people on it, and they get to work with so many great publishers across the TTRPG industry in doing cool things across our platforms. If this sounds up your alley, shoot your shot!

i think this MLK day the thing to focus on is the strategic focus and tactical brilliance of the civil rights movement and the way it was laser focused on a set of achievable goals

Want to protect yourself & others even if healthcare systems aren’t? A well-fitting n95 or better dramatically reduces the odds you will get or spread illness. It’s self care & community care & meaningful resistance of fascism, ableism, & all the other intertwined -isms. Get/give mask mutual aid:

Listen: because I am hearing this a lot from folks who are in caregiving roles with disabled, sick, dying folks, elders, or children in their care: You are not unable to do anything or unable to take action. Care work IS justice work

Hey TTRPG Sky! I'm looking to organize group games for my team here at Demiplane/Roll20, and am seeking professional online GMs to hire for one-shot play. If that's you, you can drop me a quick line through this google form: forms.gle/Yesw4e9r3WR7... Systems I'm looking for in the next post.

🚨WHOA. The El Paso Medical Examiner says it will rule the death of a 55-year-old Cuban man at ICE's "Camp East Montana" tent camp as a homicide. He was allegedly choked to death by a guard during a "struggle" after he refused to enter a housing unit without his medications.
