Better at cat friendships than human friendships, but trying to improve both. Love live music, analog and digital games, and speculative fiction.

I did a thing for the @onepagerpgjam.bsky.social! Here's Scout: a collaborative (this little corner of the) worldbuilder and useful as a supplement for tactical RPGs where engaging encounter maps matter. No map prepared? Play Scout to create a great one together! bardcrafts.itch.io/scout

Read this fun piece a few weeks after learning about wassails from @windbornesingers.bsky.social (who put on a fantastic show with everything one could ask for: history, harmonies, humor, and a sing-a-long!)
Toast, Trees and a Wassailing Queen: An Ancient English Ritual Is Back
The centuries-old tradition of wassailing is making a comeback in rural England, with rituals and revelry meant to chase away evil spirits and the winter blues.

Anyone playing #civolution? Got to play for the first time yesterday and I can't stop thinking about it! It was a friend's copy, otherwise I would be diving into a solo play today. So many options, but so cleverly constrained by the dice mechanic. Marvelous game, @spiele-feld.bsky.social!

Hiya folks! Settling in and looking to find my circles. Any recommended starter packs or advice on getting connected to #TTRPG, #fiberart, and #speculativefiction communities? Bonus cat pic included (likely my primary contribution here.)
