The minute Elon took over, I kept looking for alternatives that felt viable. BlueSky took a minute to gain traction, but once it took off... I nuked my Twitter and never looked back.
How many of you all left Twitter and never went back?

The way that this man has changed my life is hard for me to imagine sometimes. And for it to have already been four years since we said our wedding vows blows my mind.

I'm so grateful to have gotten to spend these years as your husband, Roman, and I can't wait to see what's in store next.

These two internationally known hockey stars sure have a lot of steamy little conversations in very public places for two men who don’t want people to know they’re banging.

It’s interesting how setting a project aside for a bit can give it space to breathe and evolve.

Waywright is my “companion game” #TTRPG for Minecraft, which I had expected to finished by the end of the year.

But taking a bit of time to step away and reconsider the experience has been so helpful

It’s always telling that these “think” pieces on people going no contact with family are never asking people to be someone your kids want to have a relationship with.

I can assure you, choosing to break away from family because of how they treat you is not an easy or trendy choice.

Just be better.
Yeah, no thanks.

Stop guilting people about being estranged from family members. It someone is they likely have personal reasons for being so.

Oh my god, I also used that same tape recorder for the Stanley Steamer commercial jingle I recorded one day while our carpets were getting cleaned.

I was devastated when my mom wouldn’t let me give them a copy.
Just remembered that time I hid in my closet (hah) at maybe age... maybe 10, and recorded the first few chapters of Dragons of Summer Flame as an audiobook on tape.

Definitely did all the voices.

Add it to the list of "artifacts from my past that I would kill to have a copy of and cringe at" 🤣

Hey, guess who doesn't use AI in any of their processes! Small indie creators like us.

I know it's crazy to think that we do concept art the real way and write our emails ourselves, but it's true. We do. It's not even hard. We just do it.

Used a “rosemary and eucalyptus” pillow mist tonight, you know, to be fancy.

Now my pillow smells like delicious focaccia. Looking forward to dreaming of bread.

I cannot WAIT to get my tarot deck from the Astro Oceans Kickstarter I backed! It's absolutely gorgeous, and part of a larger game system that looks equally beautiful.

I backed at the level to get the deck and guidebook, plus their solo #TTRPG, but there is a full collaborative game too!

I've rarely seen as much AI output slop as I have starting to look for resources on tarot and related things.

How many people have typed the words "witch with magic symbols on old parchment" into some shitty generator to make all of this??

I think if corporations are going to shoehorn ads into every waking moment and experience, I should be allowed to hold up my games in work calls with a "Buy Now!" link without people getting all weird about it

I have been having such a fun time playing Koriko: A Magical Year by @mousehole.press. The whole thing is just a delight.

Not least of all, the artwork and presentation of the book itself just adds a whole layer of flavor to this solo #TTRPG experience. Highly recommend.
