I gave our site a MAJOR overhaul and facelift and I am so proud of how it turned out 💚 More work on the landing page coming soon, but check out the About! And the sick footer! www.likegoblins.com

One of the perks of dating @siegefault.bsky.social is that when I ask what to wear to a conference I get answers like: "Well as a _character artist_ I think you should wear white and light colors to represent the healing and approachability of the brand you're representing" 🤯

Listen I'm not saying I always pushed my heat limit buttttttt my plan B was always: Hug enemy Dismount Run toward the cameras with a dramatic fiery explosion behind me

HEY. YOU. Tell me the name of your favorite ✨gaming-related nonprofits.✨ I'm building a directory and I would LOVE to crowdsource.

"You're a corporate death god. Your very presence exposes the gaps and rot." I'll be wearing this title as a badge of honor for the rest of my life. Thank you @theangryoptimist.bsky.social 🖤

Shout out to that one time the NSA tried to recruit me as a contract negotiator but had to cancel the interview because I wouldn't have passed security clearance (🌿)

"Just giving 10% more of a fuck will change the world" -Dusty Gannon at the Vision Video show in Baltimore tonight

Maybe the reason I liked soccer but not running as a youth was the ADHD: Running in a circle? BORING Playing a real-time strategy game? ✅✅✅

Good morning to everyone except my cat who just projectile vomited from on top of the kitchen table then made me chase him through the house to clean him up 🥴

I get rave reviews ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"your barrier for friendship is on the ground" -actual quote from my partner

[STORY + BOOK LORE] in 2016, my mom and I met @scottwesterfeld.bsky.social at GenCon. I remember him talking about working with Keith Thompson (the illustrator) - a lot of back and forth where they were each pushing the other to go deeper in historical accuracy/inspo.

🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 don't @ me I'll start posting library pics

Raise your hand if you, too, grew up very concerned you'd fall into quicksand 🙋

I am now, at 33.5 years old, realizing that I am "the friend who has LORE." I really do pull some wild experiences and one-line stories out of my ass, and all of it is true.

This is officially my most liked post 🤔 hello my #ArmoredCoreVI brethren, I am experiencing this IP for the very first time and I am THRIVING (mostly) (but not against the hula hoop) (or most things with shields) follow along for more fun updates!

I DID IT I FINALLY BEAT THE HULA HOOP MY HEART IS BEATING SO HARD AAAAAAAAA #ArmoredCoreVI 💪💪💪🤖💥🔫💣🗡️

Thinking back on my early media crushes, they were almost all women/girls - going back to Sailor Jupiter in 1995. Is that because media wasn't written for the "female gaze" (and gay people weren't real) so all the characters designed to be attractive were women? Like, was it ME or the media here??

I ran my first session of the Queer Coven RPG from @tabletopgaymers.bsky.social yesterday and I officially GET why people love GMing. I keep replaying moments of player JOY in my mind. I can't stop sharing their stories. I'm so excited that I got to create a safe space for queer joy to thrive 💖🏳️‍🌈🔮

My experience of the first boss fight in AMORED CORE VI, as narrated by @siegefault.bsky.social:

Happy International Nonbinary People's Day!!!! My latest blog is live! I was hype to find game studios that are taking gender representation into consideration 💜 #LGBTQ #Enby #Nonbinary #VideoGames www.likegoblins.com/post/video-g...

The 2025 Ennie Award nominees are here!!!! So excited to see my friend @justinsirois.bsky.social of Severed Books on the list for Best Aid/Accessory 🎉🎉🎉 ennie-awards.com/2025-nominees/

ATTN: Queers & allies who want support a trans designer I met Chrys of @hecticelectron.bsky.social at @originsgamefair.bsky.social and couldn't wait to back her latest project! She's doing incredible work on this queer sword & sorcery TTRPG set in Mesopotamia. www.kickstarter.com/projects/hec...

When DBZ is how you find out you're gay 😂 Another great episode of the Proud to Gayme podcast from the @tabletopgaymers.bsky.social! open.spotify.com/episode/42lr...

My first Origins Game Fair was a success! I had so much fun demoing Wise Wizard and Wacky Wizard board games for players of all ages, and as always I enjoyed bonding over games with some fantastic people. Already can't wait for next year!

Practicing my Vault Boy pose 👍👍👍👍👍 #OriginsGameFair

My latest blog is live! Check out this roundup of trans video game characters 🏳️‍🌈 hope everyone is enjoying your #PrideMonth :) www.likegoblins.com/post/canonic...

Stumbled on this article about the importance of #trans representation in video games while I was doing research for the blog. I am LOVING how Abigail Thorn speaks on her role in bringing Nocturne in BG3 to life. Very worth the read! #Pride #TransRightsAreHumanRights

I'm at a point in my life/career where I need to schedule "travel time" into my calendar so that my availability is accurate for Calendly. What is happening 😂

Downside of going to a gym in the city: parking Upside of going to a gym in the city: I always get to pet a stranger's dog!

Friendly reminder that being a 💖safe space💖 for people takes vigilance and forethought to maintain! Even if it's habit for you or your space, circumstances and other humans can affect things dramatically in a very short time. We must always be proactive & conscious about taking care of our own 💜

Achievement Unlocked: Post a Very Gay™️ @officialpax.bsky.social East 2025 Haul pic.

I miss #Shadowrun 😂 that game perfectly suited my brand of chaos.

Volunteering for the @tabletopgaymers.bsky.social at @officialpax.bsky.social East this weekend was an absolute JOY. I met so many awesome humans and was able to contribute to an org doing INCREDIBLE stuff for the queer community through tabletop gaming. Already can't wait for next time!! 🏳️‍🌈💜

BIRB CUTE

I want a WLW romance novel where the meet-cute is between a bride and her wedding dress stylist.

My recent favorite conversation topic is how the brain functions in relation to trauma. (Also, any excuse to use the word "neuroplasticity") Anyway I'm reading "The Body Keeps the Score" and this shit is FASCINATING

I absolutely love this conversation. If you've ever wanted to know how to play a TTRPG this is the BEST intro I've ever seen. ❤️🎲 youtu.be/JpVJZrabMQE?...

Hiring a fitness Domme was definitely The Move™️ - 2.5 weeks in and I'm already noticing that I look at my body less harshly and am starting to trust it more. 💪 Just have to take a moment to celebrate since hitting the gym was a huge step for me 😊

Me watching any K-drama: "Open communication and a splash of polyamory would solve ALL YOUR PROBLEMS"

Check out this SICK (get it?) #TTRPG my buddy @justinsirois.bsky.social is working on! For lovers of folk horror, covens, and rules-light mechanics 🧙‍♀️ It's not too late to back it on #Kickstarter! www.kickstarter.com/projects/jus...

Happy Trans Day of Visibility 🏳️‍⚧️ Check out this neato TTRPG bundle on Itch! itch.io/b/2946/ttrpg...

*trying to plan social time with my introverted long distance best friend* "hey when would you be free to get on a video call and read different books silently to ourselves together?"

Corporate enshitification has reached my at-home vet that I was really happy with for managing my cat's skin condition long term. We looooove a merger that makes the product noticeably worse for the customer yaaaay Anyway here's my old lady Miko conquering the European railway system 😘

Savor the beauty of the moment. ko-fi.com/sophielabell...

*complimentary* there's never a bad time for an unnecessarily convoluted plot and a full cast of stereotypically attractive stock characters. ESPECIALLY with the classic visual novel slow reveal where you have to conquer multiple boyfriends to figure out the full extent of what's going on.
