Board To Death is the Brindlewood Bay mystery of dreams, made by @leigheldridge.bsky.social. Clue meets Agatha Christie meets Glass Onion in this module where the Mavens are invited to a secluded island but ultimately end up trying to solve a murder instead! itch.io/b/3934/ttrpg...

For #FollowFriday (is that still a thing?), it would be super awesome if you went to this bundle page, opened contributor's profiles, and gave them follows. If you get the bundle too, that'd be amazing, but putting indie creators on your radar is so immensely helpful. #ttrpg itch.io/b/3934/ttrpg...

If it doesn't get inside you, it can't make you sick. N95 respirators and air cleaning stop the aerosols that plague, COVID, etc transmit in. If you need advice on protecting yourself, talk to someone #Covid / #longCOVID aware. Even if you think we're nuts, we're pretty 🤬 good at this by now.
