staring at the screen, no ideas, the empty prompt window confronting you with your own mediocrity -- welcome to the work, chump, you loser.

But it's exclusively the apple ones.

It is International Day of Women in Science! For this ocassion, a thread on influential women that illustrate prehistoric life🧵 Marta Szubert. Creator of one of the first to-scale feathered dinosar models (1997). If you've been to Poland or Slovakia, you've probably seen her models on display.

Go play Leigh's games!

Hand-delivered all the way from New Jersey! Thanks again to @njwebfest.bsky.social for the award and to @neddonovan.bsky.social and friends for helping it find its way safely across the border!

It’s incredibly easy to support trans people if you believe that everyone should have the same rights! I struggle to understand the mental gymnastics here!

It's already December, and all through the pod Several creatures were stirring, each increasingly odd... The first half of our holiday season Hogswatch special is out now on Patreon, and coming down the chimney to good little children everywhere next Wednesday! www.patreon.com/posts/discwo...

Finally had time to sit down and draw my Rogue from the first campaign in a long time I'm not DMing. Cìaran Greycastle is a Cillian Murphy lookalike and ex-spy who dances like Sam Rockwell when nobody is watching.

Do hard-boiled detective stories imply the existence of soft scrambled detective stories?

If you live in Vancouver, you should go see my friend's show this weekend!

They heard from hundreds of Vancouverites, many of whom were home- and business-owners who said “please don’t freeze my property tax. I like parks and libraries more,” and they still went through with this budget that is (at best) 1/10 the size of a normal one.

I'm more of a When-wolf.

Ran the new Discworld RPG Hogswatch adventure from @modiphius.bsky.social for the Punks today and it was just lovely to be back in Sir Terry's world of silliness, satire, and heartwarming vibes. Wishing everyone a delicious pork (or pork replacement) pie filled holiday season!

Art vs. Artist.

unclear how it would even save money to remove these but the vibe of this budget is really just scraping together the barest public amenities, crushing them into fine powder, and handing the VPD a rolled-up $50 million bill

Come for the action-packed, condiment-focused opener, stay for my inconsistent French accents!

Thrilled to be a part of this charity weekend as one of the Business Wizards today at 5pm! Check it out at adreasadventurers.ca!

Congratulations to the Toronto Blue Jays on a magnificent season. It is a shame either team had to lose. And this was a gut punch. 💔💔 Classy players, fanbase, and truly one of the finest cities in the world. Future is bright with Yeasavage, Barger, and Vladdy. Now go re-sign Bo.

Me sowing a passing interest in the World Series: Haha fuck yeah!!! Yes!! Me reaping: Well this fucking sucks. What the fuck.

If a team you love is playing a close game in the playoffs baseball becomes the worst sport in the world. My deep regrets to Jays and Dodger die hards.

A little horror and a lot of swearing, that's what a halloween episode is made of!

I regret to inform everyone that my pedantic brain couldn’t let me live until I knew whether or not dodger blue and blue jays blue are the same blue. They are ONE PANTONE NUMBER APART.

If the Blue Jays win the title, do you think Kens Burns will completely ignore it in his next documentary just like last time?

Who lives? Who dies? Who summons a giant robot to fight Wayland-Yutani's so-called perfect organism? (Hint: the answer to at least two of these questions might be no one)

Favourite line reading of the year.

Spoilers for upcoming @dungeonpunks.bsky.social episodes...

The tides are changing in this climactic battle (because the Beatles blew up the moon) to end our first foray into Daggerheart!

Hell yeah! Thanks @njwebfest.bsky.social!

"single-use plastic of the mind" had me GAGGED

Canada Post “lost” 1 billion dollars last year? How about, “it cost Canadians 1 billion dollars to have a national postal service” which works out to costing about $25 a year per person (population of Canada in 2024 = 40 million). Seems like a pretty reasonable cost to me.

I am begging Canadians to understand that Canada Post, like public transit, should not be a business - it's a service. Canada Post is a lifeline for rural, remote and Northern communities and overall, we need to re-evaluate why people think they "need" random shit delivered ASAP.

This is incredibly cool!

Freelance work hasn't come through and this month has been expensive so I'm offering creative consulting on your ttrpg for 25 bucks flat. I'll read it, provide detailed notes and we can do a 30 min discord call to go over them. DM me.

The debate around what is or isn’t “cancel culture” really just obscures a simple truth that it’s BAD to be massively racist/sexist/homophobic/transphobic and it’s GOOD to speak out against injustice. Some things are good and some things are bad and it’s okay to say which you think are which.

Come for the return to the setting of our beloved first season and to see #Daggerheart in action (y'know, from @criticalrole.bsky.social). Stay for everyone playing the worst people (complementary) they can imagine and learning what "Bread Voice" is.

If you like CfB games, there is a ton of great stuff in here (including an Odyssey tape I wrote inspired by Speaker's Corner 👀). And it's completely free!

Regardless of your feelings on the shooting, there's no doubt that Trump didn't need it to continue enacting mass political violence against the civilian population. Political violence is committed every day against protestors, immigrants, and trans people, and they rarely get any justice.

I think if you listen to a podcast with fake AI people saying AI generated words you are functionally dead, you are basically a phone to me at that point

Wake up babe, new ankylosaur just dropped: bbc.com/news/article...

Somehow we've made it to episode 49 of Super U?? Jackie makes an important decision after the team goes on a side quest to the Secret Library to find out more about magic, demons, and baked goods! Featuring music from Aversions and ?NUMB?DAME?

It turns out that external validation feels great!
