So, full disclosure, Wednesday is going to be a New Year Party-ish stream. The gist is: Crowd Control Skyrim with each time someone donates, they choose my weapon. Oh, and each time I die, I spin the Wheel of DeWhey, which will choose a quick workout I do. If that sounds fun, stop by!

Good morning, Adventurers! Remember to give yourself a little treat today, as a reward for doing your best every day!

Barry D. Bones @barrydbones.bsky.social · 17/12/2025

Witches have covens, wizards have councils, Adventures have parties, Knights have Orders, while merchants have guilds... The key point here is that these groups are chosen people who you surround yourself with for companionship. YOU choose your company. Choose wisely.

I wish you all a lovely Family Feasting day. Remember that you can choose who your family is. Even if it's hard to get people to leave you alone, it is worth the peace and love you attain when you have family that loves and supports you. I believe in you, my Adventures.

As an alchemist, I am consistently baffled by the large number of remedies available to the commonfolk, and perplexed by one terrifying question... What is the true difference between an herbal remedy and a potion? The manufacturing process? The ingredients? It's all the same!

Barry D. Bones @barrydbones.bsky.social · 25/11/2025

An interesting divergence of species I've noticed is that Eastern nations have kobolds that are canine in nature, as in an anthropomorphic dog that causes mischief... Whereas Western nations' kobolds are anthropomorphic lizards that cause mischief... When did this split occur?

Barry D. Bones @barrydbones.bsky.social · 24/11/2025

A lot of fantasy worlds, across media types, there's a common trope where "negative" emotions such as anger, fear, or sadness form an energy source for the evil forces of the world, sometimes even creating monsters for the heroes to fight... Why is it not true for the reverse?

Barry D. Bones @barrydbones.bsky.social · 20/11/2025

I don't know Rinii personally, but they're a fun creator, and nobody deserves to be trapped like this. Any amount of support helps, even just lurking in the streams.

Barry D. Bones @barrydbones.bsky.social · 18/11/2025

Hot Take: Talent is a fucking hoax designed to hold you back from achieving greatness. People use "talent" as this mythical thing you're born with that automatically makes you good at something, disregarding all effort spent learning and training at the craft. Fuck talent.

As it's getting into the winter months, remember to drink plenty of water. Just because it's cold doesn't mean you can neglect yourself. Water is great to keep you cool AND keep you warm since it's such a great insulating fluid. KEEP YOUR BONES MOIST

There's a strangely freeing power you hold when you look at a task, inhale deeply, speak a mantra, and just pound out the work. Not positive, not negative, just silent determination to get shit done. My favorite mantra lately is "Fuck it, we ball."

030

Barry D. Bones @barrydbones.bsky.social · 14/11/2025

Remember: If something is labeled as "basic," that just means that there's a large demographic of people who enjoy it. So enjoy your pumpkin spice latte and your Uggs! People who scoff at these simple pleasures just have an inflated sense of superiority. Until we meet again!

You ever think about how if you treat something poorly, in mythology, that item would remember your transgressions and just prank you or make you not exist anymore? This is why all my stuffed animals deserve cuddles and forehead kisses. For safety reasons, of course...

Barry D. Bones @barrydbones.bsky.social · 13/11/2025

Take time to be silly. Being an adult is so exhausting at times, I think it's healthy to unleash a little whimsy. Pretend to be a dinosaur while waiting for coffee, talk shit to the birds outside your windows, use a funny voice to narrate something random. Be silly. For me?

031

Barry D. Bones @barrydbones.bsky.social · 12/11/2025

Random thought: If you make art, and someone asks if they can goon to your art... Is that a compliment? Because your art made someone feel something so intense, they felt the need to act on that feeling! Yes, the feeling is lust, and the act is goonery, but still! You won.

Barry D. Bones @barrydbones.bsky.social · 12/11/2025

Hmmm... I think I struggle to get anything productive done on weekends because of the lack of routine... Work days are easy. You have that routine you just fall into lockstep with. But with weekends and long breaks, I wind up relaxing despite having things I want to do...

I feel like gnomes have become the new goblins... Little mischievous shits that muck about and cause mayhem... Meanwhile, goblins have been relegated to a minor nuisance at worst, So uh... Any adventures wanna go de-gnome my garden? Three silver per beard!

Barry D. Bones @barrydbones.bsky.social · 03/11/2025

Sometimes, magic is offering a sacrifice in a ritual circle, chanting the words of the ancients under the carefully calculated timing of night and stars... Most times, though, magic is in the mundane, everyday occurrences that we do to make ourselves happy... Like coffee!

050

Barry D. Bones @barrydbones.bsky.social · 30/10/2025

Ah, the joys of having goblins scrabble around your bed and screaming at you until you arise to tend to your castle... I love my cats.

Barry D. Bones @barrydbones.bsky.social · 29/10/2025

Continuing my rant about magic rocks: Monster Cores! Another Fantasy trope, but how exactly do they work? Where are they located? Near the organ that the monster uses like the throat for dragon flame? Or the heart, where blood is constantly flowing? And what are they made of?

030

Barry D. Bones @barrydbones.bsky.social · 29/10/2025

Hags this, milfs that... Where's my potion makers at? The ladies who see someone having a bad time and think: "This lich needs some tea or some soup" then go be an absolute AuDHD fueled gremlin... It's me. I have tea for you. You're doing a good job, and I am proud of you.

Barry D. Bones @barrydbones.bsky.social · 28/10/2025

I just had a thought... What if we all band together and make November into a motivational thing: No Excuse November The goal is that you do the things you've been putting off for later. Start drawing, learn that new language, start a project, etc. #NoExcuseNovember

050

Barry D. Bones @barrydbones.bsky.social · 28/10/2025

We really do seem to limit ourselves by what other people think... I catch myself doing it a lot, and it's hard to correct. You wanna make people happy, so you do things for THEM... But we neglect ourselves in the process. Make yourself happy first. You deserve it.

Why do maidens still proffer their boudoir portraits to me? My dear, yes, you look fabulous, but I have no desire for your flesh! I'm far too busy having FUN with being a crotchety old wizard to bother with carnal desire... Plus, I lack organs, so... No skin flute for you!

Barry D. Bones @barrydbones.bsky.social · 23/10/2025

The cold seeps into my bones, and I seek the most potent of remedies... A potion, basic perhaps, but effective at waking the mind and warming the soul... Slapping five coppier pieces upon the bar table, I shalt decree: "One Pumpkin Spice Latte, for me!"

Barry D. Bones @barrydbones.bsky.social · 22/10/2025

Someone once said: "Try to fill every mundane moment of your life with magick. Drinking coffee? You’re partaking of a potion. Showering? A ritual cleanse. Going to work? Trading your life force to the dark lord in exchange for the scroll of Earthly desires." And I live by that.

Fine, you dweebs want my strongest potion? It's 16oz everclear, with two packs of Liquid IV and a pack of Emergen-C, mixed with eight 5-hour energy shots. Tastes like pain and will fucking damn near kill you, but FUCK is it fun while your heart's beating... Don't drink this.

Barry D. Bones @barrydbones.bsky.social · 21/10/2025

Remember: Lemons are a human-made fruit. So life did not give you lemons. Your bitch-ass neighbor did, so you're well within your rights to crossbreed the lemon tree with a Box Tree and make lemon frag grenades. Until we meet again!
