The only magic I believe in is the power of earbuds to teleport away from you when you need them the most and back to you once you’ve replaced them.

It’s profoundly ignorant to suggest that the Pope should be fighting crime on behalf of the Catholic Church. Anyone who was remotely familiar with Roman Catholicism would know that that’s what Daredevil is for
Happy to connect you to a rad entomologist who studies ants and was/is a bug kid!
Lots of tech dudes think the "idea" is the important part of creating, not the creative journey you take through work to give that idea actual meaning. Ideas are the easiest, cheapest and least fulfilling part of it. Giving ideas life through work, and sharing that work with others, is the stuff.
Crazy that there’s no shoe-based Pokemon, yet. Seems like a missed opportunity.
A table with a blue tablecloth with the box for the game Daggerheart set out in front of a brown GM screen. In front of the box are character sheets and cut outs for the game

I don’t often get shots of me GMing games, and am so grateful for some friends and players sneaking in a few this past weekend!
I had a blast running #Daggerheart and even had a few Critical Role fans in full cosplay at the table!
I forgot that the Daggerheart QuickStart only has 5 pre-gens and hastily made Stumpy Deeproot, the wonkiest Clank Bard, as a 6th to fill in the gap at AwesomeCon.
It’s so amazing to see people take a novel concept you had and completely bring it to life.
“Give me a hit of that snoot juice!” sounds so much better than “Where’s my bottle of Flonase?”
This is the kind of energy I wanna see at my tables! Go hard, test the limits of your holodeck until you find the walls, then break out of them.
I can’t look at a file without singing “I am a file and you put documents in me!”
Can’t wait for a whole new slew of ear worms.
Alysa Liu telling 60 Minutes “I love struggling, it makes me feel alive” is a legit revolutionary statement from a Bay Area native in a time when copious amounts of time and resources are being put toward convincing us to opt out of experiencing struggle, friction and self-actualization
Brandon Sanderson had a pretty good take on this recently, especially in the context of games and literature as art.

It should come as no surprise that people who choose to play physical games at a table with other humans care that they are supporting actual game designers and not whatever soulless solution the c-suite thinks they will consume.
Friendly reminder that just because LinkedIn is an insane cesspool of AI-written posts glorifying AI doesn’t mean the rest of the world wants to follow suit.
Cue the Nelson “Ha Ha!”
Im sure he’ll land a similar position at another publisher once the furor has calmed down, but the messaging from the community that it won’t accept AI in its creative space is always heartening. It’s a counterbalance to constant LinkedIn slop that we all need right now.
Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

It's free and was designed in mind for those who faced the loss of a job, a whole career trajectory, or a struggling to handle the transition to this absolutely bonkers time we are living in.
Please pass it on to anyone you think it would help!
Rend Repair Purpose is finally up!
Drawing from the art forms of Kintsugi and Blastover tattoos, it’s a journaling game about creating space to grieve then reconstructing yourself to face the world with boldness.
