Three landscape pictures. Two of them are trees among a grey background with fog. One above them is a landscape of rolling hills overlooking a lake.
A gold painting with embossing made to look like grass.
A painting of a butterfly with transparent wings against a bright blue background with a sunburst pattern. The gradient is really rad.
A circular painting that resembles a woman with black hair with her hand outstretched. Its got a cool rorschach vibe to it.
Local artist in the Hartford, CT area have got together to donate their work for sale in partnership with www.HipHopfortheHomeless.org IG: @hiphopforthehomeless to help raise funds for the charity. My man ig: @rapjoeybatts reached out to me to help spread the word. He's been putting in the work!

Oh no, top cognitive and brain science researchers at Wyrd Science Inc. believe that Wyrd Science, the best tabletop game magazine in the world, may have developed consciousness & all this βprint is deadβ talk is making it anxious
Maybe you should buy a copy so this little chap doesnβt feel so sad

If ever there was a time to respond with compassion, honesty and hope to "Join me or you will die", it's now.
They want us to hate each other. They draw maps and laws and have us fighting over scraps of nothing to keep us apart.
No person on this planet is my enemy. Only ideas. Only systems.

Weekly Review!
We're looking at The Drakenfall Faire, a fun one-shot for Perils & Princesses by @dhowl37.bsky.social and @outridercreative.bsky.social.
A fun time at the faire can quickly turn into chaos with some magical dragons.

This post is secretly about "Systems Matter", but intelligently never says so.
This gave me a chuckle. It's always nice to be linked to though, innit.

All it takes is urban planners to give half a shit and a miniscule percentage bump in investment.
The suburbs around here (Philly) have putrid bike infrastructure. Everything is between a highway and a stroad and there's no bike lanes.
I mean, there are seasons that are bad for biking everywhere. There are also places with infrastructure that's truly hostile to bicyclists. But having and using a bike doesn't mean you have to get rid of your car, it just gives more options.

Tbf, that's only been available in print for less than a year.
The point stands though, RPG books are often longer than they should be. Especially frustrating when they're missing something essential, but waste a bunch of words on something I don't need.
Just finished up a blog post about how I prepared for, and continue prepping for my Shadowdark/ Caverns of Thracia campaign. If you're like me and prefer improvisation and light work to Blorb and legwork, give it a read. Hell, give it a read anyway!

Stock market tanking again today and oil *way* up. What's crazy is Trump could've just rode out the current regression to the mean on inflation, combined with an apparent productivity boom. Instead, did the opposite of econ 101: kicked out workers, reduced immigration, started wars of choice.

Quick questions for TTRPG publishers that Iβve asked privately but itβs been a bit:
1. If a form of coverage (AP/review/other) has transformed your sales overnight, what was it?
2. If you could wave a wand & have one creator/creative/media outlet praise or play your TTRPG, what would you wish for?
Shocked. I'm shocked. Look how shocked I am. :/
And using the pic of DT and JE hanging out with PB is just the right editing choice. #ProsecuteTheEpsteinPedofiles
