We still have a few Austin Osman Spare’s Tarot Museum Edition decks available for purchase. No similar bespoke edition of the cards will ever be produced, making this a unique opportunity to own a piece of tarot history. strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/aos-taro...

Thanks for the tag on this one. A funny goal of Twelve Years was to make it something that could be played in the office, on a plane, or sitting on the deck at sunset.

A wonderful review of Death Cut In Stone from Zach over at Short Rest Press. Ran into him at Adepticon and traded zines. First time anyone has written about something I've put out and it feels pretty fucking good.

Great to finally sit down and play Twelve Years at Sea, by @maxmoon.bsky.social . My first crew, two captains and two pacifists on a raft, spent 3 years lost in the fae mists, fled from a dragon, finally discovered a marshy island and immediately got eaten by crocodiles. 10/10 🐊

A photograph of a tabletop showing a hex map with lots of sea spaces filled in, and one small island space with the marking "RIP". Also on the table is pages of charts and tables from the game "12 years at Sea" and expansions by Max Moon games. It is open on the page "Marsh creatures"

More graphic design play/venting. Protesting has been the best medicine for all the fear, anxiety, outrage, grief, and aggression I feel. But this also helps a little. #minnesotaproud #fuckice

Reminder: when they say no one is above the law, they forget that the people are above the law. The law gets its authority from the people. We grant authority and we can take it back.

It is so good. I had a blast each time. Looking forward to playing again and maybe trying a scenario.

I am a recluse. I don’t want anyone to know what I look like. But also, I am a firm believer that if I am afraid of something, that is a good reason to do it. So I thought, well if I don’t want people to see my face, then I think I should design a shirt with my face on it. Stoked to print these.

There are an infinitum of better tools and practices. Creativity research will back me up on this. Love you. Now go be human. PS: what I like about AI will be coming sometime.

030

Max Moon Games @maxmoon.bsky.social · 04/12/2025

But when we use AI, we shift our role from being in relationship with the world and translating experience into object to a new role: consumer. So if you are using AI to help prompt your creativity, please know that you are decreasing the likelihood of having good ideas. It can work, but

Max Moon Games @maxmoon.bsky.social · 04/12/2025

Wants to poison you. It will almost always feed you garbage unless it makes a mistake. I would say that any good idea AI has is only good because a human has seen the cross connective value they superimpose onto an AI generated concept. And this is actually harder to do with AI than without!!!

Max Moon Games @maxmoon.bsky.social · 04/12/2025

Go for a walk, read a book, take a bath, dance, kiss someone, or lay on a bed of nails. Prompting AI to give you a list of ideas is like ordering a cheeseburger off the menu at McDonald’s. Sure you can get weird with it, but you are constraining yourself to work within a system that inherently

Max Moon Games @maxmoon.bsky.social · 04/12/2025

And ideate at the same time! Like I said, quantity of ideas is helpful, but it isn’t the core. Having a list requires sorting and a focused cognitive load that is an added barrier to accessing the unconscious awareness of cross connections. This is why if you need ideas, it is better to..

Max Moon Games @maxmoon.bsky.social · 04/12/2025

These ideas spark precisely because we are in the world, experiencing a diversity of experiences. The idea’s potency comes from our ability to draw unlikely connections across many systems. And because we don’t have to sit and think until we receive good output, we are able to simultaneously live

Max Moon Games @maxmoon.bsky.social · 04/12/2025

Creative folks don’t have a plethora of ideas they record and then select the right one from. Ideas spark, many of them bad, while we are doing laundry, eating a sandwich, taking a shit, and that isn’t a bug that is fixed by entering a prompt and receiving a list instead. It is a feature.

150

Max Moon Games @maxmoon.bsky.social · 04/12/2025

I still hear people talking about how good AI is for prompting creativity and helping with ideation. This comes from a highly uninformed position on the topic of creativity. Here we go. 🧵 Creativity isn’t about quantity of ideas. However, creative folks do tend to have more sparks of ideas. But..

#digitalinflation I like this term. If it already has meaning I think people should join me in using it to refer to the rising inverse relationship between cost and physicality rendered.

000

Max Moon Games @maxmoon.bsky.social · 03/12/2025

Also, I love digitally produced artwork. This is about the capitalism creating non-extant content and extracting value by selling digital vapidity to people who never asked to purchase non-things in the first place. Digital inflation is logarithmically approaching paying more to receiving nothing.

010

Max Moon Games @maxmoon.bsky.social · 03/12/2025

In this world that increasingly devalues physicality and craft, we are conversely motivated to produce beautiful objects. Physicality matters. It impacts our experience. Disembodied content reinforces Cartesian duality and the hierarchy of mind over body. Ink is good. The body and mind are one.
