Me to the party; "You have faced your enemy." Flashback to a pitched battle. "You have faced your worst fear." Flashback to the party facing the Apocalypse. "Now face... yourselves." A door opens to a cardigan-clad cleric and a chaise lounge. "So where shall we begin? What brings you here?"

Playing the Resident Evil remakes and something isn't clicking. That Nemesis intro sequence is TENSE though let me tell ya.

Hey who'd be up to watch about ten years of streaming? My home game is contemplating running Masks of Nyarlathotep.

I'm currently working on a TTRPG campaign that I can only describe as American Gods x Nightmare Before Christmas x Rise of the Guardians. Can't wait to see how it looks.

My Nightmare Before Christmas theory is that the Halloween Town parade is an act of ritual magic that empowers the fun, wonder and spookiness of the Halloween season. Balmy nights, fog in the right parts of the world, and plentiful availability of treats and scary stories in good fun.

A polite reminder that if being hard on yourself was going to work, it would have by now

We're excited to announce the Games for Palestine charity page is now LIVE on Itch. Over 300+ games with proceeds going to UNRWA USA in support of Gaza relief. Thank you to everyone for your support. The bundle launches on Sept 2nd 9am PST. Link: itch.io/b/2979/play-...

Running Curse of Strahd; "the Vampire raises the Sword of Saint Andral. Make a religion check." They pass. Me:"You know as an article of faith, if an innocent life is taken with that sword, this city and all its holy places lose their consecration and blessings against the unholy. Roll initiative."

@samreich.bsky.social's knowledge of the Dropout shows demonstrates a pure love for the craft and the people around for him. The real treat of Samalamadingdong is the PASSION he shows the entire time. What a gesture, what a ride.

Sewing the seeds of what's to come in my Monster of the Week campaign A postcard, "To Hastur, hello from Carcosa. Wish you were here."

Here's announcing the first of MANY things I have planned for Pixel Expo IV. Join myself and @perthnerdtherapy.bsky.social for a panel first up on Day 1! We'll be in Meeting Room 6, up on Level 2 of PCEC through the Artist Alley near Riverside Theatre.

Regarding social media mental health trends; Unsupervised exposure therapy is like learning boxing in a pub versus at a gym. You might learn something but you're more likely to just get hurt.

HIS CODENAME WAS SNAKE BECAUSE HE HAD TO INTERFERE WITH ADAM AND EVA HOW DID THIS TAKE ME TWENTY YEARS.

if you want an events MC or speaker with *experience in VIP hospitality experiences *events management skills who can *provide inclusion consultation *serve professionalism and authenticity *work with you to ensure that your team are supported *advertise your event across social media

I've come a long way from the quiet kid who refused to attend school on the days of any type of performance or public speaking. I've just spent an incredible two days emceeing for the People With Disabilities WA State Conference and I've never felt more connected to, and empowered with, community.

Reading a bedtime story for the smollest; Dragons Love Tacos, by Adam Rubin, and doing my best @cecilbaldwiniii.bsky.social / @nightvaleradio.bsky.social impression makes it a PSA about the dangers of not respecting Dragons dietary advice at a public event. Love it.

Just finished reading Treasure Planet to my goblins and now trying to think of what other classic novels could do with a genre shift in the same fashion.

Exploring a metric for TV shows (especially sitcoms) in how they treat sex pest characters. The Todd (Scrubs) is a sex pest and treated as one by the cast, but say, Barney in HIMYM is just treated as a scamp.

Had a banger joke earlier thinking about my lines for the disability conference I'm emceeing "Welcome to the disability conference, unfortunately we won't be the biggest concentration of autistics in one room this week - the model train expo is across town tomorrow."

Picked up a Bayverse Optimus Prime for the goblins at the Salvos today and I had forgotten how incredibly fiddly they are to transform.

Theory: Leia is dispatched by Bail to Tatooine to pick up Obi-Wan because Vader is finally taking the field against the Rebellion. Vader's engagement in the galaxy has either been pursuing jedi survivors or his own agendas. When he joins at Scarif, Bail realises the Home Fleet needs a Jedi.

I was approached to advertise an AI based TTRPG app, and have declined. I cannot contribute to environmental devastation and the theft of a creative future for friends and clients by supporting generative models. vt.tiktok.com/ZSh7DMxA6/

Watching WALL-E this afternoon. The environmental storytelling in the first sequence alone is incredible.

Me watching Andor: Wow, what a show, so prescient in today's political climate. Me, realising that Andor isn't predicting anything but simply informed by politics and history: Oh no.

@hankgreen.bsky.social amazing presentation on grocery stores. How do you feel about stores adopting an Aldi-esque central isle with no predictable filling?

Anyone work in publishing? I'm adapting my Language of Radicalisation notes into a book!

We talk a lot about the Nerd / Kink overlap and I wholly believe the overlap is autism.

First time running a publicly available online webinar tonight. Here goes nothing, fam.

Spending my May 4th finalising a presentation to help parents understand the hate groups attempting to recruit their kids. May the Force be with us all.

If your actual play characters could use a therapist, hit me up :D

Question for people who know about journalist ethics and recording laws; You've got to consent to being recorded, right?

I'm kinda surprised it took me this long, but I've started applying therapy in World of WarCraft! @support.blizzard.com @worldofwarcraft.blizzard.com

Went suit shopping today for my emcee role at the People With Disabilities WA State Conference and I think the style icon of the day was @samreich.bsky.social. I too wish to dress like the major of a town where everybody sings.

Join me for a ninety minute presentation unpacking incels, the red pill, and influencers of note who spread hate, as well as the tactics they use to gaslight and obfuscate criticism. Monday May 5th @ 8pm-9:30pm, AWST Tickets at: events.humanitix.com/language-of-...

Wanting - and struggling - to get back into nerdy neurodivergent mental health & gaming streaming. What games / content do you want to see more of?

As we discuss male mental health there's a consistent pattern I've seen amongst men and mostly male social groups - a lack of emotional openness and a fear of vulnerability. This prevents men from forming strong, caring bonds and supporting each other in times of need.

Some Liberals ad; "can we afford a minority government?" Pretty disingenuous when the Coalition is three parties in a cheap suit.

Running Curse of Strahd for some friends and offered this scenario; "You can rescue Ireena or you can save Barovia. It is going to be incredibly difficult, if not impossible to do both. Discuss among yourselves."

MEDIA KIT GO!

I'd love a Pokemon game with a Tactics Advance style "Laws" system which allows you to break Pokemon League rules when you're fighting Team Rocket.

!

If I had a dollar for every time I recommended Dropout in therapy, I'd have my subscription covered! It's awesome to be able to recommend ethical, fun and witty content. *not a sponsored post as i don't get a dollar for every time I recommend Dropout in therapy

I'm so damn keen to be presenting at TAGGS this weekend with @veenusau.bsky.social How to help therapists support streamers and aspiring content creators! #therapy #streamer #contentcreator

How is there not an episode of Brooklyn 99 where we find out that half the 99's HR workload is complaints about Charles' horrific innuendo

Watching Adolescence as its coming really recommended in my professional circles. Live comments on Facebook - should've set it up on Discord!

Fallout fan theory; The Truman Show exists in the setting and was a considerable inspiration to Vault-Tec.

I present; The Three Little Pigs, with LORE vt.tiktok.com/ZSrd1WyTy/

Every now and then, the DM brain comes out while telling bedtime stories and now the three little pigs has LORE. Might record it for Tiktok.

Playing KOTOR 2 for the first time since it came out. Me: *does something low effort that eases the suffering of another* Kreia: *some Ayn Randian objectivist bullshit* Me: "I swear to the FORCE Kreia I will turn this quest for redemption right around and go home!"

Playing with voices during bedtime stories and tonight Nandor the Relentless starred as the Big Bad Wolf. "I am going to huuhff, and I am going to parhf, and I am going to be blowing your house in."
