Turns out the left controller for my #MetaQuest2 has battery corrosion and can't pair anymore. I can try to get a refurbished controller and hope it works, but it doesn't look like they offer the Quest 2 on the website anymore and I can't afford a new model 🙃

Now that im mostly unpacked from Italy, this is the masquerade mask I bought in Venice. Its an interpretation of Pulcinella, a fascinating character of Italian folklore (and important figure in #Enotria: The Last Song)

Flight from Germany to San Francisco had a LOT of racist white people arguing with the airline attendants as they tried to board that "nobody understands you!" Ugh.

Feeling unimpressed with our airline for this trip, but the sandwich i just had at Frankfurt Airport was actually REALLY good

Last minute errands before dinner, then sleep early so we can get up at like 5am for the flight back to Canada :(

I've been perusing for a while now to find a free image sharing app with the simple accessibility of Instagram. Something I can just upload small batches of photos nice and easy to share with ppl so I can get away from Meta. Any suggestions?

Get your dice here! Fresh, sparkly math rocks! ✨

October's monthly mecha ttrpg newsletter features CHVLR and an interview with its creator @susanahgrace.bsky.social! The bonus interview this month is with @titanomachyrpg.com, creator of Immortal Gambit and A Game of Mecha Hedonics! And as always, be sure to check out the mecha content round-up!

THIS.

Some bonus Game Subscription math (in CAD) - Game Pass Essential costs $188 a year and offers 54 games - PS+ Premium costs $251 a year and offers 550 games, plus discounts. - Dropping from GP Ultimate to Essential and upgrading PS+ Essential to Premium actually saves me about $100 a year

Apparently the Game Pass subscription page crashed from so many people trying to cancel at the same time 😬

Not a fan of paying $457 CAD a year for Game Pass? For $251 CAD you can get PS+ Premium with access to 550 games, including a lot of stellar classic titles

In Canada, after tax, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate will cost $38 a month or $457 a year. I would need to dedicate time to satisfactorily completing 4 AAA games a year to even feel like I broke even. Absolutely wild. I've got other games, platforms, and a life, thank you

My friend Sam is living with cancer and just went through some tough surgeries. She could use a little help if you have some to spare. 💜 gofund.me/6e5849755

I wish my friends at EA a very “new job immediately” and I wish the new EA games a very “sink beneath the waves expeditiously”

I was thinking id like to play an open world game again, and how I never actually finished Breath of the Wild. When it was new my roommate borrowed my Switch and he played it to death, spoiled everything, and I just couldn't get into it after that. Maybe its time?

Look at these pretty-ass mushrooms I found in the woods. I was picking chestnuts up in the mountains on the border between Italy and Switzerland.

I have been informed I must wear jeans for our day trip tomorrow. I have also just realized I've been eating in Italy non-stop for a month without wearing said jeans. Will they still fit? WE WILL FIND OUT

ICE attempted and failed to disappear a food delivery guy. It needed to be scored.

My work schedule says im book off until the 7th, but elsewhere it says the 6th (when I return home) so I asked my boss and he said im booked off until the 8th. I cooooould go back to work on the 8th to start making money, but what if I just took the extra day to game for the first time in 2 months?

As my friend said with the new #MTG #MagicTheGathering announcements for next year: There are going to be more Universes Beyond than Universes Within

My buddy helped me work out a nagging little problem with my #WIP #TTRPG and its really gonna make the feature effective and simple. Its always good to ask for feedback from fresh eyes

LOL..LMAO

Wife: "we have plans on Sunday" Me: "We do?" Wife: "yeah. Im trying to organize friend 1 and friend 2 to meet us and go to this medieval town for the day." Me: :D

Yarrr and avast ye mateys, it be Talk Like A Pirate Day, and that be meanin’ that there be no better day to be playin’ Cursed Captains of Cthulhu than today! Grab yer copy, join the crew, and set sail for adventure (and tentacles)! #ttrpg #tabletop #cthulhu

I like that Spice Girls song where she’s all like, “I’m going to tell you EXACTLY what I want.” And we’re like, “Oh, awesome! I function best on clear and concise instructions. Please let me know what you need.” And them she’s like, “I wanna zigga zig ah.” And we’re like, “WTF is that, bro?”

Wife and I are trying to see if her tattoo artist can squeeze in time for us to do a couples tattoo before we head back to Canada in a few weeks

Someone told me about this, I believe it's channel 4

Education is the enemy of fascism.

I said it before but I wanted to say it again. In my #WIP #TTRPG, humans are not the dominant people. They aren't even native to the realm. As such, language like 'humanity' and 'humanoid' is avoided as it wouldn't be standardized in the world. Humans are, in fact, considered intelligent pests.

My fellow men (and sadly, yes, it's mostly men who do this), don't do this.

If u see this quote with the energy u bring to bluesky

My sunburn has reached the "applying cream causes spasms and burning" phase which i didnt know was a thing :D

We're still here, we still have dice, and we're still chatting RPGs if you drop by @kamcon.bsky.social!

#Vieste, Italy. Spending the day at the beach then out to dinner with my wife ♥️

GrandeCon: Booth 420-21-22! KamCon: Booth 26! The Adventure Dice team: tired, but happy! See you this weekend, dice goblins!

SPLITTING THE PARTY AGAIN! Next weekend, we'll be in BC/Alberta, for Kamcon/GrandeCon - see you here/there/everywhere!

Absolutely astounding work!

We've been busy and are very tired, so we're starting the week looking at some of the incredible cosplayers from #Ottawa ComicCon! (While we get ready for two more events next weekend...) You're welcome.

I'm spending a week down in the quaint little town of Vieste, Italy - just a 5 minute walk to the Adriatic - and all I intend to do is relax and read Absolution by @jeffvandermeer.bsky.social and finally see what happens next in the Southern Reach!

Artists if you see this post something RED!

Ottawa Comiccon Day 2! We're here, we're there, there's mimics* everywhere! (Booth 910-912.) *not mimics

I haven't played a video game since like mid-July. Im forgetting what a controller feels like. I think i deserve like a long weekend to just binge some games, yeah?

We're at #Ottawa ComicCon for the weekend! Come drop by booth 910-912, and go home with your new favourite game, dice, or ...dice advent calendar!
