Location photoshoots are great, but in a pinch... you can shoot anywhere with Photoshop 😌

Answering emails sucks, but I make it suck a little less by putting on ambient music and soundscapes and saying "today I'm answering emails from a Victorian greenhouse in a rainstorm" or "today I'm answering emails from a space station"

I felt like making some art last night/today and could have made something beautiful and/or meaningful but I made this instead. It's a Barbie Yaga Malibu Dream Hut. No regrets. Can't defeat fascism without joy.

Hmmmm which @ginnydi.com calendar do I use for January this year, last years or this years🤔

Do you ever think "I should do a craft with Barbies!" and then next thing you know you're using pi to calculate something called an "inner stringer"? 🥲 Yeah, me neither. Watch the whole Dream House medieval makeover on YouTube: youtu.be/mwDfsxUSiVE

Clio out here proving all the bard allegations true 😈 Some of you spotted that my Bard Barbie looked a little familiar! She's based on my character Clio, originally created for a guest appearance on Cast Party and now the character I use for bard-themed music videos on my channel.

Calendar buyers! 📣 It's come to our attention that some dice sets contain cursed d4s. We believe it's just a small batch, so most sets should be fine, but please check on your d4 and if cursed, email [email protected] with your order number so we can replace it!

Since posting the full-length video of this build, I have gotten dozens more suggestions for names. Next time you need an icebreaker question, ask what people would name a Barbie-themed medieval tavern, apparently everyone has THOUGHTS 😌 Check out the full video: youtu.be/mwDfsxUSiVE

🎶 Take your cloak off 🎶 Welcome to the Dream & Draught! If you want to see the 75+ hours of work (and mental breakdown) that happened in the middle of this clip, check out the full video 🎀 youtu.be/mwDfsxUSiVE

75+ hours of crafting and at least two mental breakdowns later... the Barbie Dream Tavern is done! youtu.be/mwDfsxUSiVE This was meant to be my last video of 2025 and instead ended up my first video of 2026. 🥲 But I'm still taking January off of YouTube to plan for the year (and recharge!)

Behold! Thanks to @ginnydi.com and her Barbiebarian questline I am making my own Mattel DnD party. Last night I unleashed my inner Sid #crafting #ttrpg #diy #bodyhorror

Good day to watch @ginnydi.com build a medieval tavern out of nostalgia and stress. youtu.be/mwDfsxUSiVE?... Take a break from the wailing and gnashing of teeth. It's fun!

interesting categorization there, youtube

I have ONE more video coming out this year and I've worked on it for 70+ hours already, 27 hours of which were in the last 2 days, and Wednesday is HURTLING TOWARDS US and I think this video is gonna be so good, and also, holy shit I just want to rest for like 4 seconds please!!

What's the dumbest thing you ever spent 50+ hours on? 😅 Get your calendar at ginnydi.com/shop (shipping now!)

So happy to see new people meeting THE BEST GIRL through the Mighty Nein show! 😍 She's so dang lovable. (and yes, that's Laura Bailey! I played her duplicate and consulted on her makeup/costume for a twitch sub promo and an anniversary video back in 2022.)

I've been wanting to do a height comparison chart for my characters for SO long, but didn't have enough full-body photos of everyone with similar lighting and framing... UNTIL NOW! 😈 I photographed all these characters similarly for my 2026 calendar, so here is how I imagine their "true" heights!

I got to hang out with the guys at Total Party Skill for their latest episode! We talked about introducing beginners to D&D, and which monsters we'd want as pets (with varying levels of realism 🐲) podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/p...

Loved this super easy, super actionable tip from Deborah Ann Woll about making combat feel immersive and urgent! It's a small change to how you narrate the battle, but it has a huge impact on how the battle feels. Full interview video: youtu.be/VD-9V7XDV7E

Bard-bie has been one of the most-requested D&D Barbies! Finally, the party has a spellcaster. Who's next?

Barbie can be anything, including a pink tiefling 🌸💖🎀 Part 2 is coming tomorrow!

You keep asking if you can buy my D&D Barbies, and… no 🎀😌✨ But you CAN get my calendar at ginnydi.com/shop And if you’re still determined to have a D&D Barbie of your own… break out the glue gun and join me in the craft room, you coward!!

used @ginnydi.com's advice on how to create spells for my daggerheart campaign and asked my group to break a door, so they came up with "BREAK DOOR LOL" 🫥

"Dungeon Master" is streaming everywhere now! Find me on your favorite music platform under "Ginny Di." 🎶

The Mighty Nein animated show is giving us a sneak peek into part of Critical Role that we never got to see 👀 This week's video is all about how you can steal this technique to set up your own campaigns to succeed! youtu.be/SC3p0Xl3LdI

I've been writing original songs for my bard, Gemini, as we play through Rime of the Frostmaiden! Icewind Dale has given her a cold ❄️ reception, so here's a snippet of one: 🎶 Everyone loves me in Waterdeep Nobody frowns at my face Someday I'll go back to Waterdeep A friendly and welcoming place 🎶

I love paying human artists and I hate gen AI 🩵 I'm not here to fight about whether or not AI is ethical (I've made my decision and I doubt I'm gonna change yours.) I'm just here to talk about what I and many other artists have been dealing with as we adjust to a new media landscape.

Hope to see you all again in Philly for 2026. 🩵 (And yes, that fanart on the left DID make my heart explode, thank you for asking)

Have you been watching the Mighty Nein show? 👀 What do you think? I'm so excited to see my very favorite campaign brought to visual life like this! I'm falling in love with them all over again 😭🩵 🍭 Jester is from Critical Role 🧵 Cosplay, makeup, and photography by me

I don't want to be the bearer of bad news... so I won't 😇 Sorry, I can't help being a tricksy little mischief-maker engaged in hijinks and horseplay. It's the fey nature. Hope to see you at PAX Unplugged! ginnydi.com/events

Ops, wrong character!😆 🔥Double trouble with 2 Caleb dice bags!🔥 @voiceofobrien.bsky.social @criticalrole.bsky.social Audio by @ginnydi.com #themightynein #criticalrole #criticalrolefanart #dicebag #dnd #ttrpgs #noisycrafting

As much of the world bends towards machine-made slop designed to keep you scrolling so they can serve you ads, there is something very healing about going outside, wearing a costume that I made with my own hands, and working together with an artist like @worldofgwendana.bsky.social to tell a story.

Whatcha doing Saturday night at PAX Unplugged? 😇 📆 Sat, Nov 22, 2025 ⏰ 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM 📍 Mothman Theatre (Grand Ballroom A) @antodemico.bsky.social as DM, with me, DnDShorts, and @persephiroth.bsky.social!
