Only 21 hours left to back! This project weaves games and myth from different cultural heritages into new experiences, enlivening the stories of old www.backerkit.com/c/projects/a... #TTRPGs #storytelling #indiegames #gamedesign #myth #mythology

On the one hand, it's cool to get a shout out on a campaign page. With @alicedgames.bsky.social s On the other hand, the campaign still needs some support to succeed, so here you go: www.backerkit.com/c/projects/a... My interview is here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=JknW...

@drnikko.bsky.social and I are putting together a special issue proposal for Big Data and Society on "Trans Data"! If you're an #STS nerd, or a #transstudies nerd, or ideally both, do submit ideas if you have them - docs.google.com/document/d/1...

I’ll be presenting my process for designing TTRPGs at #DiGRA2026 For games in conversation with this process, check out TTRPGrimoire www.backerkit.com/c/projects/a... #Digra26 #ttrpg #myth #storytelling #culture #indiegames #ttrpgs

Quick Bonus Episode on TTRPGrimoire with @playfulmike.bsky.social because it fits right in with my podcast's topic and is currently being crowdfunded here: www.backerkit.com/c/projects/a...

On days like this, I go outside and pretend I'm Britney Spears in the #DarkChild remix video of #Overprotected.

Hear about one of the amazing games in TTRPGrimoire by @joandark.com, designing “The Scales” based on the Egyptian story of The Weighing of the Heart. www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8sUdnky/ Back at: tinyurl.com/TTRPGrimoire #gamedesign #ttrpg #myth #storytelling #egyptianMythology

Okay, who pissed off Hermes?!

Take it from yours truly, a TTRPG professional and lifelong mythology nerd: You want to add TTRPGrimore to your collection!

TTRPGs afford experimenting w/ narratives, thus are interesting vehicles for mythologizing. Through play, worlds are wondrously reimagined. TTRPGrimoire exemplifies this! Back: tinyurl.com/TTRPGrimoire #TTRPG #TTRPGs #roleplaying #gamedesign #indiegames #myth #mythology #storytelling

Today, the governor of my state had the audacity to declare June "nuclear family month" in a coded proclamation saying "Take back the rainbow!" But no matter what he says, June is still #PrideMonth! 🏳️‍🌈 The Power of Pride bundle includes "Elsewhere," my fic about current events and not looking away.

Always nice to see our badge: liminalhousebooks.com

MANIFESTO JAM 2026 An invitation/provocation for YOU to write a manifesto. Running for a full week from June 8th to June 15th (AEST). Participate and submit at: itch.io/jam/manifest...

ICYMI: @alicedgames.bsky.social has a fantastic mythology-inspired TTRPG anthology crowdfunding right now and it is SO GOOD. Take a look at #TTRPGrimoire!

I’ve been enjoying making #blackoutPoetry “Everybody struck a pose” The process is Playful and expressive desecration.

One of the things that makes #TTRPGrimoire truly special is that the anthology offers play for a variety of systems. Are you a fan of PBTA? Ten Candles? D&D5e? All these and more are represented in this collection. And every designer has a personal connection to the myth that inspired their game.

If you've followed me for a while, you know how much I love mythology. In a former life (my higher ed days), I even taught courses on the subject. When I heard that the wonderful @alicedgames.bsky.social has a new project bringing games & myth together, I knew I'd need it! Behold #TTRPGrimoire!

Among the recommendations in the white papers: 1) increase the use of unpaid undergrad “learning assistants”; 2) use AI to augment TA labor; 3) award control of TA allocation to central admin; 4) ask administrative units to take over TA pedagogy classes; 5) “decouple” grad employment from education

This month, UCLA admin circulated two white papers that are so harrowing they’ve kept me awake at night. If you’re a UCLA person and haven’t seen these, you really must. In response, the Faculty Senate has scheduled a Town Hall on June 2. senate.ucla.edu/news/june-2-...

The campaign is off to a good start! There are 26 hours left to hop on the early bird rewards, including: -Some early bird prices -additional sticker packs for physical tiers! Back now: www.backerkit.com/c/projects/a... #TTRPG #TTRPGs #myth #roleplaying #mythology #creativewriting

COMING SOON Issue 1: The Long Decade

The statement that "we are all worshiping the same thing," while often intended as a gesture of multifaith inclusivity or unity, is dismissive and alienating toward polytheists. In fact, we often view it as a form of systemic erasure that is only thinly disguised as "religious tolerance."
