Tell 3-4 of your close offline friends, all of whom are presumably working age adults, some of whom may have families on top of jobs, that you want to get together on the weekend for 6-8 uninterrupted hours. Now tell them you want to do that every weekend for an indeterminate amount of time

TTRPG Question of the Day

What do you think keeps more people from playing TTRPGs?

It's be said that TTRPGs are in the spotlight more than ever before. They're referenced frequently in shows. There are movies & TV series based on them. Some have become video games. So why don't more people play?

Been a minute since I drew anything, so I rolled a MitN character and ended up with a middle aged professional illustrator who got turned into a Flying Squirrel due car accident-based goop exposure. He's just trying to make rent.

A semi-anthro flying squirrel guy wearing a blue "beach bum" tank top and red shorts, holding a tablet in one hand and a style in the other. He's wearing square glasses on the bridge of his snout and has Jimmy Newtron hair with a bit of graying. His expression says he just wants to get paid, but no one takes him seriously because he's just a lil guy now.

When you mention Halloween is over and all you get back Is that Witch Hat Stare.
Digital colored pen sketch of an anthropomorphic female black cat with unkempt hair, a tattered purple skirt with yellow and red stripped gloves and stockings, and a purple witch hat with two points resembling ears. She sits hunched in a dark room over at a computer desk looking back at the viewer away from her screen showing a colorful clown.

Someone on tumblr suggested someone should make an umamusume horse girl based on Hayseed from the "Everyone hates my big stupid horse in Red Dead Online" article... So here's Hayseed, Front Runner, Special Skill: Road Block
#gear-art #umamusume #horsegame #hayseed #biglady
two rough and partially colored sketches of an Umamusume-style horse girl based off of Hayseed from Red Dead Online, who is built like a brick shithouse. On the left, she wears the typical tracen uniform, carries a bag of oat cakes, and is currently eating one. On the right, her signature racewear (I guess) featuring a flat cap, a denim long coat, a double breasted vest, and a large horse shoe belt buckle.

Took a spin through the Vintage Computer Festival Midwest today!

It was a genuinely cool place to see a lot of well-loved old technology as well as getting a chance to talk to the people who are really passionate about it.

Every few years, Toei takes another stab at trying to seriously promote Kamen Rider to the west, and every time they fuck it up because the only company they work with is SHOUT, a barely functional third-rate streaming service.

Time to start on revision #10 of the Goop Dice, I suppose?

I have some ideas for how I can go about making everything tougher and easier to print and work with, but I feel like I'm butting up against the limits of what I can accomplish with 3d printing.

Also, I got this gracious gift from @geargrinder.bsky.social! It's hard to show as stills, but these are little Goop canister d10s that use separated fluid. These were given to all Dog on the Run participants.

Thanks go out to their hard work and generosity! #ttrpg #furry #tmnt #scalie

You know me... nothing I love better than giving myself a tight deadline so I can finish a big project right before a con!
I'm hitting up #GenCon for a Saturday and I wanted to make goop dice to give out to all my mutant friends and people signed up for the #mutantsinthenow event

I saw an infographic a couple years ago about how to remove source identifiers from links and why it's important, but I can't find it again and too many people I know are sending me links with them so here's an infographic straight from the oven
Header text: "HEY YOU! YES YOU! TAKE THIS SHIT OUT OF LINKS!" This is followed by a couple example urls, with a red square highlighting the sections with source identifiers. The rest of the text is as follows: Source identifiers are used to track your activity on a site. Where you came from, what device you use, and even who you talk to. Whether it's written clearly in the url or tied to a random string of characters, it's assigned to your activity. When you send a link containing a source identifier to somebody and they click it, it signals to the website that you two are connected. And that data goes right back to the website operators, and thus their advertisers. Whenever you select "share" or "copy link" on a social app or website, it creates a link like this. If you give even the smallest shit about online privacy, it's important to remove them. Everything after the "?" symbol can be removed without issue, especially sections starting with "si=" or "utm_source="

Reposting some old art that I haven't put up on bsky

Rocky is a simple gob who loves rocks.
Her head? Full of rocks.
Her hands? Full of rocks.
Her boots? Full of rocks.
Her hat? Full of rocks.
#goblin #rocks
A gormless little cretin wearing a large hat, a checker shirt, a large belt, and some chunky boots. The same gormless cretin looking upon a pair of rocks held up by her grubby little mitts. Aforementioned gormless cretin upending one of her large boots and spilling rocks on the ground. Her tail swishes about whimsically. The gormless cretin you've heard so much about, holding out her hat, visibly full of rocks. She is proud of herself for reason not comprehensible to the viewer.

Judging you…
Two characters staring at the viewer. One’s a smaller bird guy wearing overalls and a jacket. The other is a larger lizard fellow with a large jacket and pants.
