Be patient and kind to those who are making art right now. We're all self-funded and the richest, worst people in the world are trying to plaster over and erase our hard work.

The #Noir-vemberJam with @tyrastafr-ttrpgs.bsky.social and I is taking sign ups! Join us in making Noir TTRPGs this November. Join us in creating games that the Noir directors could only dream of having the artistic freedom to make. itch.io/jam/noirvemb...
A greyscale itch banner that reads "in THE NOIR-VEMBER TTRPG JAM presented by Irving Benitez & Tyrastafr." The year 2026 is written in Roman Numerals (MMXXVI).

The section "in THE NOIR-VEMBER TTRPG JAM" with a drop shadow behind the letters. The words "presented by" look as if written in marker or chalk. The names are the same font as "NOIR-VEMBER" but without the dropshadow.

Onion's back in triage at the emergency vet, fingers crossed nothing serious is wrong and I hate to ask again after yesterday's visit, but I can't pay for the care he needs without help. My PayPal is jeeyon.shim@gmail.com and my Venmo is Jeeyon-Shim. Every little bit helps, thank you so much <3

I have an unusual opportunity: I've been offered the opportunity to display the visual art of a tabletop roleplaying game in one of our campus galleries for 6 months. What game and artists (including layout designers) would you recommend? We'd need to be able to set this up quickly!

You cannot simultaneously hold "Abolish ICE" as a political stance & browbeat people to dedicate their support for blue ghouls like Gavin Newsom who, in conversation with *Ben Shapiro* of all people, said that he doesn't want to abolish ICE.

Hey, #ttrpg folks! It’s #LatineHeritageMonth and I want to talk about a couple of my games real quick. The Golden Path is a solo journaling game that uses the Major arcana of a tarot deck to prompt you. You are a spirit visiting for Día de los Muertos contemplating your previous life.

You get money from a book you published on a date you can't predict. it will be a sum you can't predict. you will never know if the ranch is saved or not. Everyone makes interest off your royalties before you do, and you're probably not making *any* interest at all And you don't have dental.

Nightshade, the free tool that ‘poisons’ AI models, is now available for artists to use
The tool's creators are seeking to make it so that AI model developers must pay artists to train on data from them that is uncorrupted.

Ah yes, the edition that started it all for me. The SRD changed everything for this game, and I still remember most of the tables and I made algebraic formulas to memorize every class feature and stat bonus. I was the walking DMG and PHB for our playgroup back then.

Which film have you seen an unhealthy number of times?
Chinese release theatrical poster for Studio Ghibli's Castle in the Sky featured in 2023. The image shows a large robotic hand with moss and flowers on its fingers extending downward to a small girl with pigtails and red ribbons wearing a lavender blue dress while floating in the sky through a magical gemstone necklace. The background consists of many clouds surrounding them, obscuring the source of the hand. There is next in the upper right that is written in Chinese and English that denote the name of the movie.

In unrelated techno necromancy news...my headphones haven't been able to charge for 3 months, but they randomly charged today, and I'm honestly unsure what allowed it to charge again. TAKE THAT UNIVERSE! I guess? Maybe it's the universe giving me mercy for all my endeavors.

Makes me think of taking the concept of squad based stories like in Band of Blades as the "turrets" and then throwing the hordes and seeing when they overrun before we cut to the next group.

That's understandable. I'm just a fiendish creature that tears the meat off the bones cuz I was taught how to butcher chicken when we used to run the take-out restaurant.

I can stretch out a whole rotisserie chicken for days, but it's also like $5 USD for me, and this is hormone-free and actually seasoned well. It's great. I do it like once every other week.
