Hung a projector on the ceiling so I can have a big display for TTRPG things.

I am very excited for the next game night at my place.

Couple of screenshots from an hour of playing around in Sigil VTT. It’s fun to mess around with, I could see myself using this for boss fights in my fully remote games.

I need to find some iiiiiiitty bitty hinges for this to work the way I want it to, but even now I love how this turned out.

First time seeing one of these Pokemon vending machines in the wild. The line for this one was impressive

No matter what platform I’m on, there are ads for an AI-generated planning tool for DMs “who ran out of time to plan the session”.

I’m not here to tell you how to DM, but if you’re playing D&D you already have everything you need to build a session.

There are many tables in the DM Guide to help!

She destroyed her Nazgûl so now she gets the dumpster fire

This would be an insane theme park ride

Yeah, this is going to look awesome. Now it’s off to @onceuponadesign.bsky.social to tidy up the lines before cutting out the shapes and assembling.

Each window is 3D printed and will be finished with rub n buff to make it look more metallic. The actual windows will be this iridescent mirrored acrylic I found a while back

Let’s make a hat with cool gothic windows in it

These are not good.

The “red velvet” top is white chocolate, which in addition to not delivering the advertised flavor altered the texture of the cup.
