I picked up a Daggerheart oneshot and am going to DM it for my friends over our cabining in the woods at the end of this month, and I'm looking forward to it! 🔥 "You should not have delved so deep" kind of adventures are a special kind of horror tbh

very blessed on days I get to see my friends 📺 We got caught up on Jaadugar, and I cannot WAIT for Season 2 to come out. Top-tier twisty content there at the end, and the promise of the storm that's gonna be summoned is very excitingggg

we ran way over while doing this political plotting, and gedwey was able to warn our copper court contact that the necromancers in the north definitely have ship access, and was okay with that information having sourced from them trying to build alliances and claim thrones, we'll see how it goes 🤞

Rawnie Amber M @lockaitae.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

if we make a strong stand about protecting the dragon populace while showing off gedwey's got ✨The Magic✨, can contact gedwey's brother like "hey, this only works with you" to sway one group, and his support will secure the religious one's, and that leaves just the third group of holdouts! simple 🫠

Rawnie Amber M @lockaitae.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

so now, our plan is to wait for the human kingdom to try to invade, and then execute a quick campaign to convince the 16 counties, split across three coalitions, to be united and under gedwey's claim there are ten hundred ways this could go wrong, BUT --

gedwey learns they've not been as sneaky as they thought they'd been regarding their heritage, but learns that despite the rumors it's not a *confirmed* thing, so if they want to step into the light they'll need a BIG event in defense of the people to do it with such as, defending from the humans 😅

Rawnie Amber M @lockaitae.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

after a check-in via scrying orb where gedwey just made concern hands at finding him at a time where he's cleaning up his room tossed by inquisition agents, we ask him for advice about approaching an ally in the copper court for help and then, without our diplomat present, go to face that music

that mood when you're hanging out in your little valheim hut wishing that your friends would come back from the war already the war is real life

a screenshot from calheim where the player character sits in a somewhat lavishly decorated home, by valheim standards, sitting on a throne by a roaring fire over which cooking implements hang. between them is an empty bench shrouded by a red curtain. the player is shrouded themself in a ridiculous brown hairy costume with a blue cape pinned around their neck. despite their ridiculousness, they look forlornly toward the fire, an elbow on the armrest of the wooden, carved throne hosting them and their chin perched on their fist. multiple layers of rugs lay overlapped with each other on the ground, and the table over which the shot is taken from has bowls of food and the edge of a treasure chest overflowing with gems and gold. but they are alone, surrounded only by a comfortable home and streaming fairy lights twinkling from the ceilings.

I LITERALLY NEVER WOULD HAVE KNOWN but they have children's swim lessons at the same times as water aerobics depending on the season and one day the shower room wasn't available when i was in a rush, so i found out i could avoid leaving the center with my sopping wet suit in a towel and plastic bag

so, cool, i found i can use the least-used corner of the busy women's locker room and get occasionally side-eyed for my body hair and my refusal to hide it, but not harassed, whatever but damn it i wouldn't feel pressed to keep putting myself into the gender box if the other rooms had equipment too

fellow swimming enbi here we're fortunate at my community center to have "family" changing and showers by the pool, but they lack swimwear dryers like the gendered ones i pass as "stealth" awkwardly because despite facial hair, it's minimal, and my hair is "femininely"🙄 long for religious reasons

The Heritage Foundation laid out how they were going to rescind Title IX, the law that prohibits sex discrimination in education, by first targeting trans people's participation in sport. Capitulating on the human rights of transgender people is catastrophically falling at the first hurdle.

There'd obviously still be production pollutants from batteries & the planes themselves, but come on: call it $200 of electricity for DC to ATL, fully loaded? Vs ~$4k in jet fuel? Shit…

Ocarina of Time hooked me, but Halo, followed by Halo 2 on Xbox Live, networked me into gaming irrevocably. My main online handle comes from a misheard Johnson line. Cortana was my girl. I never made much mention of it while there, but working at Bungie was the ultimate gamer moment for me.
