AHHH I read my final exam calendar wrong and just totally missed one of my finals I am FREAKING OUT

Extra double bonus points if it’s in the 20-30 dollar range

Ok my family does a gift exchange every year, and a lot of them are big board/card game people. I’d like to get a TTRPG that is adjacent to that.

Current thoughts are Fiasco, Alice is Missing, and The Quiet Year, but I’d love it if anyone has other ideas!

a medieval style digital drawing of an androgynous brown-skinned knight on horseback on a hill, stabbing a long gold spear into a blue dragon on the ground. the knight has a gold halo behind their head and wears a suit of silver armor with a nonbinary flag striped tunic and a trans flag as a cape. their horse is white, with blue tack with trans pride trim. there is black gothic text at the top and bottom of the image reading “A world without trans people has never existed and never will.” there’s an ornate pale blue border around the image, filled with pink and blue scrollwork, gold hearts filled with colorful flowers, a smiley bat, two smiley moles, and two smiling frogs holding up trans flags.

a world without trans people has never existed and never will

I was watching a Jarvis Johnson YouTube video and when it ended YouTube started to auto play… the prince of Egypt??? Like the full movie???

The final stretch goal (at $180k) is a Creator’s Guide to PBTA, and I need y’all to go back that because I’m a creator looking to make a PBTA and I could really use a guide.

I got my work evaluation done today and I met and/or exceeded every expectation!!!

Bee-on Genesis: An Invertebrate Mech TTRPG by paladinosaur The world's only game about being a bug and piloting the discarded exoskeleton of another bug! (I think.)

Anyway if you haven’t checked it out, Bee-on Genesis was the first TTRPG I ever wrote and it’s about being an invertebrate piloting the discarded exoskeleton of another invert like a mech!

There are people out there!! Not only do they PLAY my silly bug mech game, but they LOVE my silly bug mech game!!!

Sometimes I get reminded that people actually play Bee-on Genesis and I get so fucking emotional

A proxy of the magic the gathering card “Jenny Flint”, retitled as Janus, Noble Hearted The cost of the card is 1 colorless, 1 blue, and 1 red. The card text reads: “Legendary Creature - Human Detective Partner with Donatella, Noble Love When this creature enters the battlefield, target player may put Donatella into their hand from their library, then shuffle.) First strike Training (Whenever this creature attacks with another creature with greater power, put a + 1/+ 1 counter on this creature.) Whenever you sacrifice a Clue or Food, put a +1/+1 counter on another target creature you control.” It is a 2/2. The art is by Chris Allard and features Janus Rez. They are a short-haired nonbinary person with a blueish tint to their skin and constellation tattoos on their face. They are wearing regal clothes and holding a rapier. They are standing in front of a spaceship window that shows off the moon and half of planet Earth.

A proxy of the magic the gathering card “Madame Vastra”, which has been retitled to “Donatella, Noble Love” Her cost is 2 colorless, 1 green, and 1 blue” The card text reads: “Legendary Creature - Lizard Detective Partner with Janus, Noble Hearted (When this creature enters the battlefield, target player may put Janus into their hand from their library, then shuffle.) Donatella must be blocked if able. Whenever a creature dealt damage by Donatella this turn dies, create a Clue token and a Food token.” She is a 3/3. The art is by Chris Allard and features Donatella Fantome. She is a woman with medium-toned skin and short blonde hair. She’s wearing a pink jumpsuit and holding a blue beetle. The background features a view out the window of a spaceship, showcasing the sun and half of the planet earth. If you line up her card with Janus’s, the halves of the earth connect.

They should make some sort of commander format that’s like 2HG but with the two people on the same team playing one partner commander deck

(I say this because I think @osteonaut.bsky.social and I should be able to play these Janus/Donatella proxies together)

(Proxies by @thepherf.bsky.social)

Gods I really vibe with this creature!!! 10/10 little guy

This fucks so hard and is such a cool format i should make a zine like this

Bronze plaque saying "A Letter to the Future. Ok is the first Icelandic glacier to lose its status as a glacier. In the next 200 years all our glaciers are expected to follow the same path. This monument is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it. August 2019. 415ppm CO2"

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque:
"This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

HELL YEAH

The Outdoors is Your Right Zine by paladinosaur A zine about nature as a human right!

Feels a little weird to promo at the end of this thread but idk if you want to help me pay my dentist or buy Christmas gifts or make more cool games/art here’s my zine about nature as a human right

paladinosaur.itch.io/righttonatur...

I know it’s only been up for a few days or whatever but the idea it’s got 317 impressions, 37 views, 11 downloads, and 0 payments is just frustrating.

maybe I priced it too high but also I spent almost 12 hours of work on it. If I was paying myself (IL) minimum wage i would have made $180. Federal minimum wage? $87. So the idea that $3 is too pricy is :/

Idk I’m glad people are reading my zine but also it’s discouraging to see that no one paid $3 for it.

Also of those 9 people, only 3 have given it a rating.

I think it’s really important to have community copies but also? I put up my zine on Saturday. 9 people have claimed a community copy. No one has actually purchased it.

Apparently he is a goosefish and not a wobbegong but my point remains bsky.app/profile/teeg...

He looks like if a mimic was a rug instead of a chest

fanart of Samus, from the Metroid games she's wearing her signature power suit/armor, only her helmet's off, she's holding it in her left hand she's standing in a dark wire-filled place, with only a vertical ray of green light falling on her fierce-looking face, like a door's opening on the outside, off screen

a whole new world to explore

I tried to find them all in their enclosure but they’re only about half an inch long and I’ve only got 4. I have confirmed that 3 of them are in their enclosure, but I can’t confirm if the last one escaped or is just being super sneaky

One of my hissing cockroach nymphs somehow got out of its enclosure and ended up on my bed. I did not even realize it had gotten out.
