Dyslexia brings great joy and great pain, but mostly pain.

Today I misread an invitation as providing “Lite Brites” and lost my fucking mind when I realized it in fact said “light bites” and there will not be my favorite childhood toy at this function

Omg of course! Literally packing to leave for a ren faire right now 🥰

Ren faire clothes are expensive, so I keep my outfit pretty basic! This is what I’ve been wearing the last couple years
Mirror selfie of my in a bed and breakfast wearing renaissance clothes. I have on a light pink skirt tied to a belt to show off my legs. A floral corset and black poofy sleeves. Fun fact, there is a game of Kelp on the floor in the back ground Me in the same outfit, now wearing a black cape and in a parking lot

Same thing, different font.

Anonymously making fun of your wife on the internet for the up-votes of strangers is very weird actually!

Being recognized as a Wonder Woman finalist last night was incredibly surreal.

I’m so proud of how far I’ve come in the board game industry, and so grateful to have such wonderful people supporting me 💖

I stand by these. Impeccable taste from day one, I fear.

(expect for maybe Doom & Destiny, I got that because the boy I had a crush on recommended it and you can judge me for that only if you haven't done that too 🫵)
a screenshot of the first five games I purchased on steam. In order first to fifth, they are Undertale, Final Fantasy 7, Doom and Destiny, Stardew Valley and Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove. The first purchase was in October of 2015.
