Tonight I got to do a #TTRPG first & perform an actual play in an Art Gallery.
Playing @twistedspiregames.bsky.social Sirens' Oath with 4 other amazing storytellers and mermaids in Tate Britain.
It was amazing, I'm so hyped up!

Update to this chart that I share a lot. Not breaking news: Game design teams are still OVERWHELMINGLY all men. About 7% of the top 500 games have a woman or non-binary person credited as a designer. A 🧵of related charts: (1/6)

How do hotels always manage to turn bacon, the most flavourful of meats, into a tough chewy tasteless thing?

I've finally been doing some proper miniatures painting this week and this time it's for the @highrollersdnd.bsky.social gang.
This is Quill, one of the official miniatures, that I was commissioned to paint up for them.

Progress on my LARP bimbling staff. Multiple froggo familiars in place now. Lots of lovely witchy vibes. I want to see if I can attach fairy lights too.
It'll hold a big metal lantern for evening jaunts.

The Booknooks are from Miniatures of Madness, Frogs from Cindering, and the mimic can holder was a freebie on Cults.

I've been given the new #Looki camera to have a play with. It's a life-blogging camera that records snippets every 1,3,10 mins for 7-15 secs (you decide). It then creates little vlogs of your day.
