This is what being 30 looks like ~

Wiling away the last day of my 20s on The Lost Boys' boardwalk. Maybe I'll run into a vampire and never have to hit 30 ~

Big Bad Con, the last day ~

Saturday!

Big Bad Con day 1 ~

If you're going to Big Bad Con, I will be at both the POC Meet & Greet on Friday night and holding Office Hours on Sunday morning at 11 if anyone wants to connect and/or talk about getting in the industry!

Fuck.
$67k. Chemoradiation is expensive. This is 1 bill.
If you're able, (and *please* only if you are), every contribution helps. If not liking and sharing this post as far and wide as possible increases the chances of it reaching someone who can spare a bit.

No joke today - today we remember Friend of the Facts and Paizo freelancer @gameraccoon.bsky.social who passed away this week. Our thoughts are with their loved ones.

Thanks for shining a vibrant light with your talent, your humor, and always your giant heart. It's hard to keep flying without you.

Remembering Ashton and Supporting Their Family, organized by Andrew Mullen Ashton Sperry, beloved partner, parent, artist, writer, and friend, passe… Andrew Mullen needs your support for Remembering Ashton and Supporting Their Family

A really amazing person passed and left a huge hole in our community, but an even bigger hole in their family.
If you have the ability, please give as you are able to help with end of life costs

It's a crass thing to talk about money, because we've heaped so much shame on poverty. But Ashton struggled with finances, and I'll never know how many years that carved off their life.

Most of your favorite creatives are hurting. Support them when you can.

On June 26 we lost one of the brightest, warmest, kindest people I've ever met. Their partner and step-child have been left without much time for bereavement or much to support funerary costs.

I'm asking the Paizo community that Ashton loved to help out.

I hope you enjoyed it!!

Meme from JoJo's Bizzare Adventure of Dio saying "You thought it was a talented author, but it was me, Dio!"

Hello Pathfinder people! Wondering who wrote the minotaurs, clawdancer/winged warrior archetypes, hydras, and some of the fun spells in Howl of the Wild (paizo.com/products/btq...)?

I wonder what alien memes are like

Eid Mubarak!!!

Ramadan Mubarak 🎉

I hate to ask this here but start of semester expenses, losing a week of work to sickness, along with having to pay for some meds out of pocket while I wait for MediCal insurance to answer any one of my dozen calls means I need some help this month if y'all can spare it.

Shout-out to this person at my day job rocking the Vegito blue pfp, your confidence is inspiring

Reminder to self: make time for correspondence in my schedule. (Correspondence: a word which here means "replying to discord conversations that I myself started days/weeks/?? ago, and then forgot to continue because ADHD is a memory black hole.)

Finally trying out MH Rise. So far I've enjoyed it! The speed of getting on hunts and the varying weapon looks are awesome. Not sure how I feel about wirebugs yet, but leaning positive. Not a fan of HP/stamina being capped by spiribugs tho.

Will try to update as I play more!

Frieren is so gooooooood

Everything good that happened in my writing career happened because someone, normally another writer, helped me. Suggested me for something, put in a good word, and so on. The idea was always that you help others and they help others in their turn. It's not a win or lose game.

My entire prose career so far has been due to one person—yes, another writer—recommending me to an editor, who suggested me to another editor and so forth. I try to pay that forward wherever and whenever I possibly can

Me to me: Alright Ruvaid, you're going to go meet a ttrpg contact irl for the first time, don't be weird.

Also me: Got it!

Clearly an Arabic demon caught in the act.

Arabic folklore has these small demons who attack your feet if you don't cover them when you sleep...
