I’m looking for someone who knows their way around InDesign, has a passion for the hobby, and would be up for taking some layouts off me for Secret Passages issue 3 and – if we both have a lovely time – beyond.
If that sounds like you, DM me!

October has been the biggest month of my life and I'd love this full circle moment to be part of it.

One page games can be fun romps and artistic explorations of the edge of the medium, but they are cost prohibitive to print and distribute -- which is why the Tiny Tome series by @long-tail-games.bsky.social is so great for both designers and players. And one of my games is in here! 🤩

RSS is, and I say this without hyperbole, an incredibly useful tool for psychological independence in the current environment. Newsblur, as Vajra suggests, is good, I use Feedbin, there are others. Most remarkably easy to set up.
Speaking of the well-deserved death of social media, I've started using Newsblur as my new RSS reader (had to clean up a depressingly large number of dead links, including to sites that still publish but no longer have RSS feeds) and that does still in fact provide a source of good internet

To call the Forsaken heroes is preemptive; perhaps their deeds will be few and worthless, or worse — they may be great, yet bring naught but ruin.
As for their past, speculate as you wish. At this point, neither you nor they can ever truly know.
