I’ve been LARPing a lot this year, and when I say that @bestghost.bsky.social takes pictures that look like stills/cinematics from the movie/game version of the LARP I played-

Wren (they/them) @thornydryad.bsky.social · 04/08/2026
Tuesday, August 18th! Mark your calendars for an adventure taking place in www.wyrd-games.net/ Malifaux setting! Come along with a cast of characters who have secrets to hide and scrip to earn in "So Rises the Jade Moon". The premier starts at 7 pm eastern. Look for further details here!
A dark blue skyscape with ramshackle looking building silhouettes at the bottom of the image. There is a bright, white moon at the top of the image with bats flying over the astral body. 

In white, stylized script reads "So Rises the Jade Moon"

In the center of the image are pictures of each cast member. Wren is first, next to Wren is Alyssa, who is followed by Emily, then Garnet, Gwen and lastly, Jon. Each image is in a white framed box with the players' names over top of it. Beneath each player is their character/role name: Fatemaster, Algernon, Cymbeline, Andromeda, Rapture, and Rico. 

At the bottom of each box is a picture of the character arts. 

At the bottom of the image is white text that reads: "Playing on alternating Tuesday evenings at 7 pm eastern on twitch.tv/thornydryad"

In the bottom left corner is the Wyrd games logo and the Through the Breach game logo. 

The images read "Sponsored in part by Wyrd games" and "a Through the Breach Campaign"

They say Thursday’s Child has far to go, but Speaker Sunday’s here to remind you’ve nearly made it to Friday 🙏 Our street preacher’s got a way with words that open doors you’ll never cross through. Brought to life by @ryomasa.bsky.social Art and layout by @dread-herring.bsky.social #vtm #vamily
A landscape style character sheet with an aged paper background. Details from clockwise left to right, in bold letters reads SPEAKER SUNDAY, a character panel in the upper left, an illustration in side profile, a masculine individual with short dark hair, very light facial hair, and rectangular green sunglasses sitting below the eyes. Wearing a wide brimmed hat. Expression is inquisitive, looking over top of the glasses. Tones are greens. Beside are stats, physical, social, mental, humanity. On the righr side reads BANE SEVERITY, below health, willpower, merits, flaws, disciplines. Under the character frame on the left are three more smaller character panels that feature the other players.

I've been ESPECIALLY quiet the last two weeks, because I was busy playing R1 and staffing R2 of Conscience LARP USA. I don't have the words to express how much of an amazing time it was; like the Westworld park the game draws from, I'd come back again and again. The weather was a paid actor, too:

If you didn’t already have 99 reasons not to trust AI, here’s my personal anecdotal favorite of the bunch: a thing Google AI literally said to me today.
A Google search for “rush hour white characters,” followed by the AI overview listing Detective James Carter (played by Black actor Christ Tucker) as the main white character in the movie Rush Hour.
