Are black Friday scams and fraud up for all small businesses like crazy this year?
We usually get one or two, but my current count is in the 40s, and several of our small business friends have similar problems.
it's rough out here.

it's so much easier to gift shop for freaks and nerds. why don't you try getting a hyper-specific interest with a ton of niche handcrafted accessories to support it and then maybe you'll get some treasure?? hmm???

Just a reminder that there are LOADS of small businesses, BIPOC-owned businesses, LGBTQ+-owned businesses, women owned businesses who would appreciate your holiday shopping dollars so much more than any big box retailer ever will.

❣️For all my tabletop streamer friends out there who haven’t yet heard, Twitch has just announced a brand new Tabletop Creator Club!
These clubs are a way to connect with other streamers in your niche, for everything from APs and TTRPG discussion to collectible card games and mini painting.

Man, I feel like I've barely had time to come up for air this year. How is it October already? But also, how is it still 2025?

Trick or treat bags and Advent Calendars have arrived at @diceenvy.bsky.social and our office is tiny and so so full already.
We ordered HALF the boxes we'll need this year, arriving tomorrow, and I have no idea where we'll put them. All of my tetris stress dreams have come true. 🥲

If "AI" was as valuable as they say it is, they wouldn't be selling it to you. They'd be using it themselves in secret to make the next Minecraft, the next Avatar, the next Hello Kitty and then they'd sell that to you.

The Hasbro OGL fiasco. The fragmentation of social media. The onslaught of AI slop. The ever-evolving threat of tariffs. Attempted rollbacks of safety nets.

I feel like @diceenvy.bsky.social CEO transitions are cursed. When Dave took paternity leave and handed the reins to @aabria.bsky.social, the pandemic struck. When he first talked to me about taking over, suddenly all of LA was on fire. And now I've begun running things: tariff hell.
