I put together a #notaklon by #jhs today. Super easy. A few more photos in comments. This pedal is dedicated to my beloved dog Ella, run in paradise, baby girl 🥺

As a worldbuilder GM, that is the game to me... making the world, letting it be flexible and bend without letting your players break it. Also? I feel like GMs that make their own gameworlds burn out less often. IP Realm roleplaying becomes Trivial Pursuit instead of the good stuff.

Jess Wade is amazing, and it's my absolute honour to be one of the more than 2000 women in STEM whose wikipedia page she started: mymodernmet.com/jessica-wade... 🧪🔭👩‍🔬
Meet the Physicist Who Wrote Over 2,000 Wikipedia Biographies for Women in STEM
After noticing a lack of entries on Wikipedia for incredible women throughout history, this incredible woman decided to take matters into her own hands.

Apologies for the self-promo but I'm running a hard times sale on all of my paid games (at very reasonable prices!!) at the moment and I'd love it if folks checked it out.
There's cavemen, pirates, promethean sky whales and-of course-giant robots!

September 2021, smaller than Ella's head. Now in 2025, she's a giant #Burmesestartortoise female and two men. They love hot and humid conditions and are gluttons for greens and produce. These are captive bred in the USA but are critically endangered in Myanmar/Burma.

I can't ever express how much I love my best man @hodagrpg.bsky.social ... and he knows how much I love Hingeback tortoises of the #Kinixys genus. I think this #TTRPG character, Hyngbacker, makes Metrodorus and Moana, two Home's Hingebacks, proud.

The party was awesome till they decided to knock over the fern and extra UVB fluorescent. Star tortoises can't have nice things. #startortoises #startortoise #geocheloneelegans

A little something special I did for my MAY THE FOURTH game in between knocking out commissions:

Shout out to my brother from another parentage @aaronkep.bsky.social for the sweet post mordem name!

First drinks. That's a little vermiculite floating in the water -- but she will push those floaters about a week after she first eats.

I'm kind of stretched thin here mentally and wanted to offer the opportunity to anyone willing to take some financial pressure off of me so I can finally expand the Hvault out w/ some missing depth.
Donors will get to choose the genres, and if you donate above 💯 I'll even do "mouse games".

Another Hodag Game on 2 Cairns!
On this week's Between Two Cairns, we review "The Evils of Illmire" and answer a mailbag question which, if I remember correctly, is "what's the best color?"
