Got my artbook (plus extras!) of @godivaghoul.bsky.social's phenomenal work!

Had a surreal comedy of errors trying to get it from the delivery guy due to a sitcom-like series of misunderstandings and co-incodences, BUT finally happy to have it in hand!

Mothership Month 2025 may be over, but we're still hard at work: today we're releasing UNDER THE SKIN, the newest adventure from all-start creator @kharrak.bsky.social (Bloom, VR-Dead). The twist? Any character, including the PCs, may be a monster without realizing it.

Trying out a new brush 🤔

Barker called me up one night and without preamble said "It's opinions, not onions. Not onions. This is Clive Barker. I've been trying to track down and stop this error in editions for decades. OPINIONS."

Steam, after 30 minutes of me bashing it with a hammer to try and buy the dang needle bug game.

(I somehow now have two copies of the game in my card, and I can't buy either)

Steam devs desperately trying to keep the platform functional as it's bombed to hell and back by the silksong rush

Unfortunately I did reach out via support email and got told that address is "no longer monitored" 🤷‍♂️

Accidentally bought a month of PSN, and two DLCs for a free-to-play fighting game, so about R300 / $15. Doesn't look like I can get a refund, either. Considering what COULD have happened though I'm immensely relieved.

Turned on PS5 via controller to play some Death Stranding 2, decided I wanted to play something quick on my PC instead so plugged my PS5 controller in... later got several PSN purchase notifications.

...turns out that if you do this, the controller is STILL sending inputs to the PS5 🫠

Anyway, it's just wonderful re-discovering these books, and what were clearly very fundamental and primordial experiences for my imagination and creative drive.

Also goes to show (once again), kids can tackle this kinda stuff if it captures their imagination, or fans the flames of passion!

The other is an academic book about (obviously) Dinosaurs, filled with skeletal diagrams, genetic trees, and special distribution through continental drift - I think I forced myself to read all of it repeatedly - I was, like 5!

It also has some absolutely phenomenal art!

The first is a collection of myths and tales from across the world, and as I look at it now it's genuinely surprising how diverse the stories and art are. The art was scary, but gripping - like I was dreaming while awake. I'd lose myself staring at it.

Visited my mom, and she had been sorting through her books and found two that I adored as a kid (and both were hefty hardcovers that were half my weight back then). Both gripped me and my imagination *deeply*, despite definitely not being for kids, let alone ones my age.

chrono trigger scribble from my sketchbook

This one's a one-shot blatantly and affectionately inspired by a certain 1982 horror classic - some fun ideas that I was delighted (and relieved) to see work well!

Cover for my next Mothership adventure zine! Art by the phenomenal @chaoclypse.bsky.social !

Bought a new bookshelf because I was running out of space. It arrived today, so I built it, emptied my current shelves to move them all around, and then re-organized everything with the new space.

Turns out I don't have enough space, so I need to buy a new bookshelf.

a scratchboard artwork on the lower portion of the image, we can see the tiled rooftops of medieval houses - in the bottom left corner, a little character wearing a black coat and a floppy little hat is sitting on top of a roof far in distance, a huge castle rises above the scene, four towers on the very top of the castle seem to be supporting a giant, gleaming obelisk behind the castle, in the sky, a giant winged creature comprised of round turrets and rotundas emerges from the clouds

INIS Seasons was a bit of a cheeky buy, since I've been eyeing the upcoming kickstarter anyway - but I nabbed it just in case the tariff situation meant the kickstarter didn't happen.

Rare social media post to gush about the huge US shipment that finally arrived, after slowly putting it together for like 6 months.

Saw Sinners last night, had an absolute blast! Some absolutely phenomenal scenes that were a joy to watch in the cinema (and one fully packed!), and I've been listening to that fantastic soundtrack since.

Highly, highly recommended!

My ORC BORG one-shot for cons:

- It’s the biggest royal wedding of the century: two rival clans are marrying their eldest sons to one another.
- The players are acolytes of the Yellpriest who’s officiating the ceremony.
- The Yellpriest’s head explodes thanks to a demon incursion 3 minutes in.
