I'm not a therapist, but I get asked frequently about where to find resources, so... I made a list of materials from others who have the training!
Find it here, I hope it helps, and happy gaming!

I've spent a lot of time thinking about tariffs lately & know I'm not alone in the TTRPG realm, given the catastrophic impact the new tariffs will have on U.S. businesses.
What maybe is unusual is that once upon a time I was a customs attorney who got paid to think about tariffs for a living. 🧵

Well, I know this photo doesn't *look* like much, but trust me when I say the *smell* of this photo is jaw dropping in the best possible way. It's 18 different test blends (poured into wax melts) for a new scent I'm SUPER stoked to be developing for a collaborative TTRPG project!

Happy International Women's Day. Rather than talking about our stuff, I'm going to share some awesome women in the TTRPG scene that I think you should know about and support.
Not an exhaustive list by any means, these are just a few friends and people whose work I admire.

"Solo journaling games" are something you do alone, right?
WRONG! Yesterday we learned that journaling games are a great entrée for gamers and non-gamers alike to collaborative storytelling.
AND: so many participants raved about how they met new people in an authentic, fully-present way.

Had an amazing time today at @peoplesbooktakoma.com exploring Imaginative Journaling through solo games (many of which turned out to be highly adaptable for groups!) Shout-out to @junkfoodgames.bsky.social, and especially to @stickydoodler.bsky.social for organizing!

Anyone have recommendations for 2-player TTRPGs that are designed for campaign play? Preferably not 1 GM & 1 player, but open to those as well. Self-promo is welcome!

I'm so grateful to @charliehall.bsky.social for giving me the space to write about indie TTRPGs, about things that matter, about tariffs and censorship and platform migration.
And with my final act, I used that platform to do some good.

for years i avoided transitioning bc i told myself i'd rather be a good man than a bad woman. it turns out i was an anxious, repressed, dissociated, miserable man, and sublingual estrogen almost-singlehandedly resolved many of my deepest-set anxieties
i know some number of my followers have been waiting for a sign. fuck this stupid world and start your transition, now.

Stopped into @tychesgames.bsky.social in Athens (GA) this afternoon and y'all. Never in my life have I seen a more impressive collection of TTRPGs. I'm still stunned by the variety & volume. Truly an indie RPG lover's paradise, with the NICEST staff. Pulled out a few personal faves for a pic!
