Ryvre von Doom

A wooden chest decorated as a Dungeons & Dragons-style “mimic,” with teeth, eyes, a red tongue, and a green dragon head on the front. The chest is open, showing a teeth and a hint of a tongue. Under the chest, there are shelves stocked with Narcan boxes, harm reduction supplies, and other small items.

Two boxes of Narcan nasal spray (naloxone HCl 4mg) on a shelf. The boxes contain two single-dose nasal spray devices for emergency treatment of opioid overdose.

A close-up of a basket with packets labeled “WiseBatch Harm Reduction,” containing individually wrapped test strips. Signs indicate three types: benzodiazepine, xylazine, and fentanyl single-use test strips.

Have you noticed this new friend in our Art & Community space? It's a Care Cubby stocked to help you care for yourself and your community!

Our Care Cubby was made by the @trashgoblins.bsky.social, because goblins believe in mutual aid. 💚

I'm on a little crusade today. If you want to help me yell about AI art harming real artists in a very direct way, please amplify!

Faire is actively working to grow their presence in the book market, and I think there's a good chance some pressure could get them to add some sort of AI policy.

if you know anyone who is like “speed cameras are fine, just don’t speed” remind them that any time we give cops the ability to search us extrajudicially, they’re gonna fuckin do it

It's taking all my willpower not to spam the store's bluesky with vampire pics

A ticket opened up for our Fangs Gallery larp tomorrow! A player is sick, and he's making the responsible decision to protect everyone's health by staying home.

If I could just not be sick, that would be amazing. It's been pretty constant since Christmas, and I'm so tired.

It’s your moral duty to stop the Gestapo from grabbing people on the streets.

AND ALSO WITH YOUSE

American pope?!?!

FCBD at Laser Church!

Okay, I wasn't expecting outright fraud. What exactly was the plan here?

If you are in line to own Diamond Comics Distributors stay in line!

I wish! I couldn't make it work between Indie Bookstore Day and FCBD. That's a great view!

Right now, kids are having fun in a place that was rightfully meant for cars! And how can you ignore the plight of the poor income-less parking meters? Lincoln Ave hasn't faced a threat this grave since the great Welles Park Baseball Lights Wars.

Such a busy day, and we're so tired! Highlights later. I kept notes so I wouldn't forget!

I'm increasingly convinced satire isn't just dead but it's dying act was to lock us all in Hell.

But every now and then someone comes out with something this good and I think it might not actually be dead.

participating in an organized boycott – not a haphazard, individual one – of a company as large as microsoft will always pose complex questions on a long enough timescale. but skipping the oblivion remaster weeks after bds declared microsoft a priority target? easy. a complete no brainer

Bro they lobotomized your aunt

Francis appointed almost 80% of the cardinal electors, so it's unlikely that it will swing too conservative. Tagle is the presumed frontrunner that I'm hoping for. Or Zuppi, but he seems less likely to me.

In a couple years, you'll get married in Goblin Market's community space and mothman will perform the ceremony. You'll get that first free comic you read together slabbed and graded for your paper anniversary. It comes back at a 4.2, a reminder that you're very good despite some moderate defects.

It's that time again! Come visit me on Free Comic Book Day! Maybe dress as your favorite cryptid and visit a couple comic shops. Ask out that hottie you like and bring them along. They'll be impressed by your creativity and closet cosplay skills, and something magical will blossom.

This man is a lunatic.

This is so obviously a bad idea I can't believe it's even being considered.

JK Rowling isn't just saying hateful things, she's using her money to strip trans women of legal protections.

There are other wizard books. Better wizard books. More importantly, wizard books that don't fund real world hate.

We watched people standing in line for 8-10 hours to vote in Georgia, so they made it illegal to give them water. They called in bomb threats to majority Black polling places. They did everything they could to suppress the vote.

And then folks are out here like, "well Georgia voted for this lol"
