I've truly never experienced anything like that show tonight. I've been to arena concerts, seen big popular bands live, but this was Beetles. This was Michael Jackson. Random girls (probably guys too, honestly. I even got emotional if I'm being honest) were crying. #BTS is on another level, y'all.

Attention #Gencon pin collectors and #DungeonCrawlerCarl fans! I'm only two pins away from collecting the complete series 1 set of Dungeon Crawler Carl pins. I still need Mongo and New Achievement. I have various commons, some extra Mordecai and WTAF, and an Ultra Rare Glurp Glurp up for trade!

Oh hey, look who was playing some #DungeonCrawlerCarl ttrpg at #Gencon! It's @mattdinniman.bsky.social and #JeffHays! I didn't want to interrupt their game so I just snapped a shot. But I did get a sweet audio adventure from #SoundboothTheater! Hope you and your party had a great time!

Don't stop. Don't let up. Don't like any post/tweet/video by Sony, don't buy anything from them. Flood their posts with your dislike for their terrible decisions. Dump your Sony stock if you have any. Hit them in their bottom line, and bury every distraction with negative publicity! #NoDiscNoBuy

One glorious year with this incredible, gorgeous woman. Kinda can't believe it. I feel like someone entered a cheat code on my behalf and I'm winning the game on easy mode.

Also @ginnydi.com, I had forgotten the tickets for me and my friend that day. I couldn't message you since we're not mutuals, but @jayeryane.bsky.social messaged you for me. I felt bad and was worried you were losing money because I didn't have the tix with me. Sorry about that! But I totes had tix!

I got to chat with Tanya, Rekha, and Anjali! They were all delightful! Jasmine had another event to get to, so I didn't get to snap a pic, but she said hi, and during my question while Rekha was getting serious, she said, "Look what you've done!" Lol

Rekha stood up out of her seat to talk about Indian foods we NEED to eat, TONIGHT! Anjali said she loved me for asking this question, which was cool! I was nervous to ask so I'm glad they enjoyed the question. I'd love to see Rekha get a chance to do a presentation.

And now it's time for a photo dump of my recent trip to Houston to take Grisha to our new home. I'll be moving soon, but for now he's with Steph. I miss them both so much! 😭

Last day in Texas with Steph, trying not to cry too much. Ugh! I can't wait for this phase of only visiting each other to be over. I'm ready to spend my life making her smile in person every day.

Heading to a midnight production of #RockyHorrorPictureShow with the love of my life! How do we look?

Over here feeling very emotional, as Steph is on a plane back to Texas. Posting the last two pics. Someone cheer me up! 😭

Oh look, more of us being obnoxiously adorable! Haha

My two loves! Grisha being snuggled and nuzzled by Stephanie. The white mug in the foreground is from Deep Space Discounts. It reads "WORK SLEEP" over and over in yellow and blue text.

Sorry, y'all. More gross cuteness from the other day. Nah, I'm not sorry. Lol

Another shot at lover's reach with Chris and Steph smiling. The smile definitely reaches their eyes!

Just us being disgustingly cute on the absolute greatest date of my life! We went to Castle Megastore, explored Pike Place Market, had some excellent chowder, found a Lover's Reach type place, kissed on the ferris wheel, enjoyed a drink at Wash in Cap Hill, and even went to a friend's bday party! ❤️

In Pike Place Market, there's a lover's reach type spot overlooking the feris wheel where everyone carves hearts and initials into the metal trim on the roof. We added ours! The pic says "C + S" in a heart, but sloppily cuz carving it in with a key is hard!

Just a couple of weirdos! A pic of our hands, fingers interlocked, with bracelets that say "Weirdo #1" and "Weirdo #2"

I ran a one shot for my girl this evening. She had never played #D&D and wanted to, so I put together a little prison break scenario, Skyrimed them to a magical jail, and breadcrumbed them to the finish line! I have things to improve for sure, I don't DM much. But, it seems to have been a success!

This was me in like, 2011 or so, in college. This was like 19 hours into a 24hour game jam where we were making a game in 24hours. I was loopy, to say the least.
