Apparently we have to literally spell it out for people.

If you're zip-tying naked children at gunpoint and putting them into unmarked vans, you're the evil one.

You can't go halfsies with the Devil without losing your soul.

If you're quiet about your disabilities, you get accused of being a fake. If you're outspoken, you get accused of being attention seeking.

Disabled people deserve to be believed and supported without hate. We deserve to be able to thrive.

Even here, tucked away in some desolate place, where this library was thought would stay hidden. Even here, the war has touched.

The language of non-consent around AI is really telling. "It's too late to be scared." "It's here whether we want it or not." "You'll have to learn to work with it." "You can't fight the inevitable."

All just variations of "you're not allowed to say no." Creepy technology made by creepy people.

What's your favorite sentient race/species in DnD?

Mine is goblins. I've never really understood why but I just adore those little goobers. I think I enjoy the idea of powerful goblins because they're so often overlooked & underestimated

A gaggle of goons with a duo of assassins can be terrifying

If you're struggling with your mental and/or physical health, as someone who also struggles, I want you to know that it's ok

You're allowed space to breath. To break down. To regroup and to retry. No matter how deep the pain or heavy the burden, you are wonderful, and you CAN heal

I believe in you

Here's my most recent bi-weekly Thursday Thaumaturgy map, where I take the top two votes from the members poll and smash them together into a new map!

This one was Overgrown Ruins / Romantic Garden :)

I'm an outspoken anti-fascist, but just understand that you can and will be punished by platforms for speaking out in all but the most pacifistic of ways.

I've been perma-banned from Reddit for over a year now for just that reason.

It's slowed my growth immensely. Be careful out there.

Trying to get some mapping in today, I'm behind on literally everything.

If you'd like to follow along with me as I try to not crash and burn, check out my page at Patreon.com/MapXilla

If you'd like to have something commissioned, I still have space. DM me here or email me at MapXilla@gmail.com

Finally got accepted back to the psychiatrist and therapy, just restarted my ADHD meds today after a year. Will begin the antidepressants next week, then anxiety meds some time after that.

I sort of crashed out and thought I'd just tough it out.

Don't tough it out. Seek the help. Take the help.

Rows of tall, brass cages house strange and wondrous creatures, their colors glimmering while low growls and soft chirps mingle in the warm air.

I'm frustrated with myself that this map didn't perform better because I adore the art that James and his team made for it

I might be doing another collaboration with them this November and if so, I'm going to try extra hard to knock it out of the park for you all

I still love this piece though <3
This old stone mansion sits hidden in the jungle, partly overgrown but still grand. Vines creep down from the balconies, and a golden dome shines above. It looks peaceful at first...but something feels off, like you're being watched...

Fulfillment is now underway for the Cosmere RPG! We've sent PDFs to all backers, and books started shipping this week. So now seems like a great time to celebrate the awesome team behind this project.

This is a LONG thread, but please read (and share!) it anyway, because this team deserves it. 🧵

The Cutlass Airship

Rugged and straight to the point, the Cutlass was designed for mobility and utility. From the largest fleets to the most daring private ventures, this ship is always ready to get to work.

I hope everyone is doing ok out there.

I should actually use this site more often just to post random stuff, rather than only maps.

Ever since the fall of Twitter I've had trouble getting back into social media. I tried so hard to build myself up over there, just to have it wiped out by a turd.

City Assault [PHASED]

It's a calm, quiet morning. The kind of morning where the air is damp and the dew still sticks to the plants. Guards meander back and forth along the walls, going through their daily routines, lazily looking out for any threats.

Lazy River

This slow, shallow, meandering river stretches across a sparse section of woods. An excellent place to set up camp can just as easily become a deadly ambush as enemies strike from the nearby high ground, or even dropping down from the trees
