“As Above, So Below”, Collage. 🌿💫

Floral collage art. Half of the flower is cut out and showing negative space through an engraving of a garden (the roots, lower leaves, and the lower half of the stem is white), also surrounded by cutout stars. The upper half of the flower is the cutout of the garden engraving on a white background surrounded by cutout stars. Orange hand drawn stars sit upon the flower-heads.

After playing @austinwalker.bsky.social's Realis, my suspicion that this game is the heading for a new chapter in tabletop design has turned into belief. Instead of dreaming, an alternate ruleset came to me last night. Here is the gist of it: thepsychicmaelstrom.pika.page/posts/silaer...

thepsychicmaelstrom.pika.page

Silaer: a setting-agnostic, no-prep ruleset inspired by Realis - The Psychic Maelstrom

Yesterday I played Realis and I can’t wait to play it again. In the meantime, I’ve been doodling an alternate ruleset based on my experiences. One that can hopefully accomodate...

I'm slowly reading the odyssey and I can see why it has become a central myth of the privately educated, concerned as it is with kings and inheritance and hosting, ownership of land and property and people, I imagine stories told around the hearths of peasants perhaps had a different eye

if you are any kind of creative or artist or writer you *have* to understand sex workers and porn/erotica artists/authors as being members of the same class as us. to the extent society recognizes a difference between "legitimate" art and porn, it's only as a tenuous, convenient, temporary fiction.

If anyone is getting smacked with this - just use deer.social or another alternate client. Bsky is just an AT Protocol Client, and your Bsky account is an AT Protocol account - you can use your same Bsky account thru another AT Protocol Client, no migration or loss necessary. Could not be easier.

I suggest all up-and-coming artists to harbor critical skepticism every time a for-profit organization uses the word "community." Even well-meaning individuals within a corporation cannot escape the economic incentives that structure demands. The end point invariably leads to the hijacking…(1/2)
