We as a society, as a country, failed this woman.

The least we can do is support her family during this unimaginable horror.

I don't care if it's over it's goal when you see this. Donate anyway. Adriana Smiths life was priceless.

"how did you get into ttrpgs"

Oh, I signed up because they were offering a free set of steak knives with purchase.
"how did you get into ttrpgs"

Oh, I was bitten by a radioactive ttrpg when I was younger.

First day of setup is done for #PaxU

Tomorrow we'll finish organizing and then it will be time to open the flood gates 🧡

(Unrelated but I look so much like my mom in this picture and it's WEIRD)

Hey folks -- Signal Boost time for this week's #TheFullLid. If you have a creative project to promote, leave the details in a reply. Include the title and a link please, so folks can find it. For pre-launch crowdfunders let us know about 2 weeks in advance.

Hey babies! I can't wait to see you at #paxU this weekend.

Since everyone is sharing their "rules for engagement" here are mine:

If you need help, come find me. I have hot pink hair and will be at the Avantris booth during expo hall hours. I also have stickers! Just ask 🧡

I like *being at* conventions.

Watching some friends live my worst nightmare right now.

Please make sure you have your advanced directives documented & easy to find in an emergency. Especially if you have a non-traditional family structure and/or a complicated relationship with relatives. DOUBLE especially if you have children.

Make time to #vote today.

Even if it feels pointless.

Even if you've lost hope.

Even if you don't want to.

Local elections have national influence.

Has anyone asked #ErikaKirk the big question? Does she support releasing the Epstein Files like her late husband wanted?

Either she throws her dead spouse under the bus and says he's wrong, or she alienates the administration she's trying desperately to hang on to.

Make her pick one.

Starting to think about a new #TTRPG show, but most of my ideas are pretty bleak. Given the current state of *gestures vaguely at everything* I'd want to do something more lighthearted/comedic.

Enter immediate writers block 🙃

A central fact about education, but one which almost disappears in discussions of education policy, is the enormous amount of effort and creativity and commitment teachers put into finding ways to help students actually learn. In every classroom people are struggling to find ways to do better.
Important update from two months into my “experiment” (lol) assigning college juniors and seniors to read whole physical books and then having a seminar where they use the physical book and physical notebooks and their ideas and questions to fill three hours of class time:

It rules

I'm working on programming to support #bereaved children & families. I'm trying to come up with common symbols/representations of grief. So far I've got:

Butterflies
Rainbows
Cardinals
Black Ribbons
Votive Candles
Poppies

What are the icons you associate with #grief and loss?

Come hang out with us as we talk about parenting through geeky endeavors!
First panel of the day went great, and we loved chatting with the audience!!!

Gearing up for panel number two, and then heading home. I hope y'all have a good day 4 of the con!
Sunday at Game Hole Con, I'll be on two panels!

Learn about choosing/adjusting tabletop games for your players AND how to raise a nerd kid while also surviving parenthood.

Details on both are here in my GHC schedule, and I hope to see some of you there!

Good morning my sweet angels!

Try to move your body today
Wash that thing you keep setting aside
Send a text to someone just saying hi

Protect your peace today, and remember Dungeon Mom loves you 🧡

I don't know who needs to hear this:

You did NOT "give" your child #autism because you took acetaminophen during pregnancy. Please listen to the physicians and researchers who have been working on this stuff for DECADES and not the buffoonery disguised as governance that came out today.

Friendly reminder:

Take your meds
Eat something MORE than just coffee
Relax your jaw

Have a good day, babies. Dungeon Mom loves you 🧡
