I know most panels probably have been submitted at this point for PAXU, but if there's still room for a Deaf neurodivergent queer who plays and GMs, does consulting and writing work, along with advocacy, I'm here! #PAXU #TTRPG

How do y'all manage all your data? I have so much and I don't know how to make it less overwhelming 😩 I recently bought a large HD to keep plugged into my Mac, so I can edit videos without Final Cut Pro eating up all of my disk space for a one-minute video 😒

Ah, just DMed a D&D one shot and this was the first time I’ve played in a while. Felt good to be causing chaos and consternation among the players again. And this was a new group for me, so that was also nice to experience!

I just watched Gather with my partner for their schoolwork, and damn it’s such a good documentary about indigenous people reconnecting with their roots (literally) through food sovereignty.

I've been traveling for the past two weeks, first in Rochester, NY then Phoenix, AZ. I'm back home now and it's so nice to be able to step outside and not be immediately hit with a wall of heat.

I’m currently starting to test out Notion and Obsidian for notes, and I can already see myself using both for different purposes. Notion has an AI aspect, but I appreciate that you can have it completely turned off!

After quite a bit of finagling, I've finally got my Kobo Libra Color extremely customized! ...and I might play around with it a bit more.

A screenshot of the Kobo Libra Color's home screen. The bottom row of menus has been customized to have different names from the default, and an additional menu has been added. That menu is opened to show the extra options, including several games, easier access to a few settings which are normally accessed through several layers of menus.

Ahhh I'm so annoyed I can't find this extremely niche thing 😂 I'm looking for espresso shot glasses, and I really like using the ones my roommate has. I scoured the internet, trying to find similar ones. Turns out, the glasses were from the Costco tiramisu desserts, and I can't buy them anywhere 🥲

People need to stop shaming others for not constantly speaking their thoughts on every issue. We’re taking in much more negative information than ever before and even more than we as humans were ever capable of understanding. Taking it in is ALOT, so speaking on it feels next to impossible (2/x)

One week post-PAXU and my first time in Philly, and I’m still thinking about it! All the fantastic people I met, the conversations we had, the panels and shows I saw, and just the buzzing magic of creative energy concentrated in one area for the weekend.

A shot from below, showing a brick building and a blue sky. The focus is on the corner, where there’s a rounded turret of sorts with inset windows and intricate stonework on the curves.

The exterior of a bookstore called A Novel Idea on Passyunk, a banner above the entrance says books, community, events. A display bookshelf in a bay window has books cover out, and a lit up open sign on the top.

While I'm on the thought/subject of captions… PLEASE USE THEM FOR YOUR VIDEOS. 💖 Especially if you are posting a long video to a service that has an actual button to press to add them. Especially if you stitch with a video that has captions. You're talking for minutes and no captions? Fix that.

Rogan wearing a green mask, kufiya, and glasses, eyes crinkled from smiling. They're wearing a white shirt and a dark blue/purple button shirt with white star and golden sun patterns all over it. They also have a rainbow strap from their fanny pack running across their chest.

Time for a refresh of my profile pic across socials!

Rogan, a white masc-presenting person with a mustache/beard combo, is standing with their arms crossed and smiling slightly. They’re in front of out-of-focus bookshelves that are full with books and has a few art pieces placed here and there. They’re wearing a white t-shirt and a very dark blue button shirt that has patterns of white stars and the golden Sun.

Coming up on my first PAXU! 🌲 I’m Deaf, ASL is my primary language. I may have interpreters with me, but if I’m solo, please use your phones, get creative! 🌲 I’m terrible at remembering names with faces, so please tell me who you are! 🌲 hugs and pictures are a-okay! Excited for the chaos!

I just learned that Focus Friend now has a living room in addition to the main room! I’m so excited to decorate this little room, and it’s SO adorable how the lil bean gets from one room to another.

I have zero interest in reviewing any book that uses ANY AI to write, make the cover, or marketing materials. I got an email for an early eARC that initially seemed interesting. Until I saw the marketing image with the characters. The woman's clearly based on Katniss, they're not even trying!

I’ve been reading The Einstein of Sex, about Magnus Hirschfeld. Oh my gods, this man was AHEAD of his time. Anti-imperialist, a Jewish anti-Zionist, a gay scientist who pushed for wider acceptance of queer folks of all stripes internationally.

I’m still in awe that I was able to go see @dimension20.bsky.social live, and on my birthday to boot! What an excellent birthday gift to myself! So here’s some pictures of the night. I saw so many wonderful cosplays, and as a DM, I had to cosplay the man himself, @brennanleemulligan.bsky.social.

Rogan standing in front of a digital poster for the Dimension 20 LIVE Quangle Quest event, which shows the cast in various poses and expressions. Rogan is mimicking Brennan Lee Mulligan's quirked eyebrow and pose. They have eyeshadow makeup on, and are wearing a green long sleeve with leather bracers on their arms.

A wide shot inside of the Climate Pledge Arena, all the stadium seating is washed in blue lighting, and bright white lights center on the stage, with the Dimension 20 performers sitting in a triangular shape. In the foreground are three interpreters, two of them are signing and they’re all lit by small soft yellow lights.

A zoomed in shot of the stage, people surrounding the edges and filling the stadium seats, with all six of the performers waving to the cheering crowd at the end of the show. The performers from left to right: Siobhan Thompson, Zac Oyama, Lou Wilson, Brennan Lee Mulligan, Emily Axford, and Brian Murphy.

A selfie of Phelan (Rogan’s partner) and Rogan in their seats, both smiling widely. Phelan is a little dressed up, wearing a button shirt, while Rogan is in cosplay. They have a green long sleeve shirt and leather bracers on their arms. They also have green/blue eyeshadow and a white streak added to their beard, mimicking a mix of Brennan’s looks from both seasons of Dungeons and Drag Queens.

I don’t know why or how this keeps happening 😅 Often, if my partner or someone is having issues with any type of technology, and they’ve been trying everything for the past hour or so… I walk over to help and it just resolves itself without me touching anything 😂
