The after-school #DnD club I run for my students had a holiday party yesterday, and I had the kids make Beholder ornaments. I think they turned out great 😁

Can I offer you a bacon jalapeño deviled egg in this trying time?

Problem: I’ve been craving a Greggs steak bake, but since Greggs is a UK chain, the nearest location is roughly 4,400 miles away.

Solution: be the Greggs you wish to see in the world…

Super proud of my youngest: he just got finished GMing for the 1st time, running a one-shot he wrote himself for #Shadowdark! His friends loved it 🙂 He hand drew his own dungeon, and made a puzzle for his players to put together irl to reveal a secret room in the dungeon.

After seeing a newsletter from The Arcane Library with this free monster earlier today, I challenged my 8th grade GMs to work it into their after-school sessions today… it was hilarious to hear the shrieks of laughter in my classroom as cranberry juice got into PCs eyes 😁

I’m having so much fun introducing my students to #shadowdark this semester… after a few homebrewed one shots, one of the groups will be meeting the Scarlet Minotaur tomorrow 😈

Reading Astrotopia for the 2nd time in 6 months - 1st time was for pleasure, 2nd time for one of the classes I’m taking - and somehow it’s even more on-point than it was in May! Mary-Jane Rubenstein just might be my favorite contemporary thinker… #theology #religion #philosophy #science #spacerace
