I hate getting ads or seeing posts for crowdfunding campaigns that have not yet launched but they want me to subscribe to get notified when it does. I see that and then my opinion of the campaign takes a nosedive. Tell me when it's ready to back, not when there is nothing.

This is Denni. She took an unexpected babysitting shift when she found a baby koala in her yard. She cheerfully delivered the joey to her human, who put them back in the tree to be reunited with their mom. 14/10 (FB: Steve Lamplough)

I talked on stream yesterday about my issues with the Arcane Archer Unearthed Arcana. I'm big on fixing problems, so I've drafted my D&D 5.5E Arcane Archer Redux, and gave design notes for why I made the changes. You can check it out for free right now!

"If I wanted that, I would ask a junior dev to do it. The results would be the same but unlike the AI, the junior dev would learn something and go on to become capable of doing my job. If AI replaces the junior dev, where do senior devs come from? Who fixes the code, then?" 2/2

Today is probably the last day to pre-order the Dragon Town box set at the reduced pre-tariff price. Backerkit pre-orders will get shut down and moved over to my new website very soon, and the price of the special edition box is going up! dragon-town.backerkit.com/hosted_preor...
