Vegan AF is the best restaurant in Brattleboro VT. They are down to only four days/week so they're a bit more challenging to visit, but if you are for some reason in Brattleboro you should come to Vegan AF. Doesn't matter if you're not vegan, they're just a great restaurant.

We used to have this vegan burger restaurant, Boon Burger, in Winnipeg. They were special bc they weren't trying to replicate a cheeseburger and falling short, they made burgers with chickpea or black bean patties that had flavour profiles appropriate to the ingredients they were using. Really good.

GenCon is in less than a week so I haven't committed yet to writing a new school or thesis for Shaz, but here's how the conversion turned out
A PF2 character in stat block format. It is a landscape image, screenshotted out of Affinity Publisher, so blue outlines are visible around the text. The stat block is for a 9th level School of Gates wizard with the acrobat, magical trickster, and rogue archetypes. At the center of sheet is an illustration of the character by jess, an air genasi with green hair and navy skin holding a dagger. She is dressed in shiny black pants, red knee-high boots, a black top, and white cold shoulder sleeves.

find a new manufacturer for All Nighter. Bc Skindinavia has a patent for the formula, a formula change was necessary for Urban Decay All Nighter. Finally, the Skindinavia response to UD ending their partnership has arrived: A partnership with MCo Beauty to sell... 🥁🥁🥁 the "All Dayer" setting spray.

I was talking yesterday about doing laying out a personal project in A5 landscape and realized the preview ended up marooned on twitter w/o getting reposted Writing by @neotiamat.bsky.social Primary illustration by Shane www.instagram.com/sidlakangbab... Leaf symbol by @acorviart.bsky.social
Screenshot of a page in A5 landscape, a deity entry for a god called "The Shepherd of Wolves."

The page has a 2-column layout, one narrow column on the left with a black background and a second wider column on the right with a white background. Along the line between the two columns is an illustration of a shepherd with a crown of autumn leaves, surrounded by 3 wolves. The illustration is B&W with gold detailing, and the layout incorporates gold headers and borders into the text

In the left column:
OTHER NAMES
The Shepherd, The Autumn Winds

SYMBOLS
Autumn leaves, a shepherd's crook, a snarling wolf, or a dark forest path

CUSTOMARY DEPICTIONS
Religious art and statues of the Shepherd portrays them as an attractive young man or woman with a shepherd's crook and a crown of autumn leaves, typically accompanied by a pack of wolves.

In the right column:

THE SHEPHERD OF WOLVES
Divinity of Animals, Night, and  Wilderness

The shepherd is the god of half-tamed wilds, of things just barely outside mortals' grasp. He's the wood beyond the last field, the dark outside your window, the  scream in the night that you hear but are afraid to investigate. He teaches mortals to respect the wilderness, and know that even the tamed beast might still bite.

BENEVOLENT ASPECTS
Many rural communities have priests of the Autumn Winds, who are tasked with ensuring mortality and the wilds coexist with minimal friction. Thy practice and  encourage open range and sustainable methods of agriculture, feeding their communities and maintaining the natural environment.

MALEVOLENT ASPECTS
The Shepherd watches over those who do their business at night and away from civilization's rule. Bandits, killers, and other dark hunters make offerings to him, as well as those seeking safe passage through the wilds, beseeching the Divinity to shepherd his wolves away from them.

HOWEVER a list of all my favourite parts of Rage of Elements would not be complete without Chimothy Chunger
Discord screenshot of jess speaking in a discord server.


Jessica Redekop (she/her)
ok I need to share a very cursed thought with everyone
ruvaid and I were brainstorming names for his new fire creature, the walking oven dude, and then "chunger" entered my brain
this is my historic high for cursed creature namesDiscord screenshot of a conversation between jess and Ruvaid Virk

Jessica Redekop (she/her)
I'm so glad this isn't my creature, I get to release chunger out into the world and then walk away
whatever happens from this point isn't my fault

Ruvaid Virk (he/him)
I can't believe you would do this, just drop this curse on me and walk away, as if I'm not now compelled to actually name it chunger
It's late in the night and I rolled a low will save against suggestion

Jessica Redekop (she/her)
idk, I'm perfectly at peace now that I've expelled that terrible thoughtDiscord screenshot of a conversation between jess and Ruvaid Virk

Ruvaid Virk (he/him)
I'll give it a nice, normal, regular name. Like chimothy

Jessica Redekop (she/her)
Chimothy Chunger

Ruvaid Virk (he/him)
Please, Chimothy was my father. Call me Chimbo.

In my sections: 'universal empathy' in the introduction, the reader being threatened by the air elemental narrator in the air intro, & the floating tent in the air items (a nod to this kinda goofy but iconic planar tent found in D&D3e Planar Adventures that will live in my head rent free forever)
"For me, exploring the Elemental Planes shares much in common with exploring different parts of my personality. I am a jann, a genie of the Universe who embodies all the elements simultaneously. They infuse my form, shaping my mind and body, and I can find aspets of myself within all of them. When I visit the Plane of Fire, I rediscover my passion and warmth. When I sail across the Plane of Water, I chart the vastness of my own heart. So too it must be for mortals, I think, who I've always imagined possess a unique ability to look into any plane they fancy and  find a facet of themselves reflected back, a sort of universal empathy.

If you journey across the Elemental Planes, I believe you too will discover much about yourself, as well.""Sleights Unseen

Mortal minds are filled with cute understandings of air. I suppose you wish for me to separate the truth from falsehood, but asking this of a creature of air would misunderstand our nature. When you see a vessel and think it empty, air is always within.

We flow so cleverly around all things that some elemental traditions consider us only a space between. In Tian Xia, mortal elementalists believe in a cycle of five elements eternally feeding each other: fire, wood, metal, water, earth. Unlike those five, air has no solid form; this is the true distinction understood in our exclusion from the cycle. Other elemental philosophers do call us an element in "equal" standing. This discrepancy is ideal, I say. Thrive in the inconsistency and keep the mortals guessing- as unable to grasp us conceptually as they are physically. Air is everywhere, always; it is the space between all spaces, the energy moved through the cycle, and the barrier laying between the Universe and the Great Beyond.

Air is flexible, mutable, and invisible- an ideal element for spells and magical tools. Pomp and show have no purpose in my work, and elemental air is perfectly suited for slipping by while drawing minimal attention. Do you breathe, mortal? Air can give life with but a breath, or strip that life away with the same ease."FLOATING TENT, ITEM 1+
Bulk 1
This diamond-shaped tent is designed for sleeping in planar environments without gravity, such as the Plane of Air. Weights are attached at each of its six points, carefully balanced against each other to prevent the tent from leaning too far in any one direction. The tent has an anchor, which can be used to moor the tent and prevent it from floating away from the object or location it is anchored to.

Type: floating pup tent; Level: 1; Price: 10 gp
A floating pup tent is large enough for one person and their supplies. It contains a hammock suspended in the center of the tent, large enough for a Medium or smaller creature to comfortably sleep, in addition to a net beneath the hammock where gear can be stored.

Type: floating four-person tent; Level: 2; Price: 25 gp
A standard floating tent is large enough for four creatures and their supplies, containing four hammocks in two rows suspended in the center of the tent and large nets near the top and bottom of the tent for gear.

lmao I forgot how hard I went in what is literally just the lore preamble before a creature stat block in the backmatter of Apocalypse Archive
Screenshot from the PDF of Revenge of the Runelords 3 Into the Apocalypse Archive by Jessica Redekop. Text reads:

"When a new creature dawns, it’s pristine and whole—perfectly ordered—for but a single moment before it can be eroded by Pharasma’s poison, accumulating decay, change, and chaos, until finally it reaches its ending, when time leaves a twilight creature broken and gone. Law and chaos, the ancient ones believe, aren’t opposing or even separate forces, but a single expression of reality viewed from two angles different from each other only in time."

Below the text, the creature stat block for 'Ancient One,' a level 20 creature, begins.

What would you do converting this character from PF1 to PF2? What class and archetypes would you use?
Screenshot of a full page of PF1 stat block. It's extremely text-dense (too much for the character limit of alt text, sorry!!). The short character bio, character name, and character classes are as follows:

Your name is Shahrazad El-Amin. You tolerate “Shaz” for short. You were born an air genasi princess on the Prime Material of Faerun, but a life without freedom was of no interest to you. You are a member of the Revolutionary League. You worship Akadi, elemental goddess of air and freedom. You are a dangerous arcanist, specialized in rays, divinations, stealth, and disabling devices. 

SHAHRAZAD EL-AMIN
Female air genasi rogue 3/evoker (wind listener) 3/arcane trickster 3

The character is a wizard evoker with the admixture subschool, the "Combat Casting, Extra Traits (Magical Knack, Reactionary), Feint Partner, Improved Initiative, Scribe Scroll, Weapon Finesse" feats, and the following skill bonuses " Skills Acrobatics +10, Athletics +5, Bluff +12, Disable Device +24, Disguise +8, Escape Artist +16, Heal +10, Perception +18, Sense Motive +13, Sleight of Hand +16, Spellcraft +15, Stealth +25, Use Magic Device +13; Knowledges Arcana +15, Civilization +15, Nobility +15"

After getting the Lethal palette I quickly determined it was too much to travel with and transferred the purple blush, green highlight, and six eyeshadows into a smaller magnetic palette. Since replacing the purple blush this year, I've moved to these two smaller magnetic palettes

I've had my custom Lethal palette for three years. This year, I finally had to replace my first pan: the purple blush. I reassembled the whole palette into the same configuration as the photo in the quoted tweet from when it was new so you can see the difference three years made.
Photo of a custom makeup palette containing 12 pans of eyeshadow, 2 blush, and 2 highlights. The eyeshadow pans are smaller (about 1/3) the size of the larger blush and highlight pans.

The pans have varying levels of dips in the pigment, showing which colours have been used the most. A purple blush is almost entirely used up, a green highlight has a significant dent with the metal pan visible below, and two eyeshadows, a green and a purple, only show powder around the edges. Five total eyeshadows have varying levels of pan visible.

A screenshot of a portion of the Urban Shadows 2 character sheet for the Fey playbook. It presents 4 options for a rival, each with a checkbox. The options are:
"a jealous sibling; you owe them a Debt for their loyalty
a former lover; you owe them a Debt for their kindness
an old mentor; you owe them a Debt for their tutelage
a contemptuous peer; you owe them a Debt for their patience."

The box for the last option, a contemptuous peer, is checked. Beneath this, notes read:

"Gathan Honeysong, Earl of Chimecaster
Has dominion over songbirds, sunshowers, contentment with simple pleasures.

The art prints are predominantly blue, purple, and green in colour, and several include cats.

idk if this thread will actually be useful to anyone, I think it's clear the product image for my silver one shows features that align more closely with the gold one than the item I actually received, so checking product images for details like ring width may still lead to inferior items.

It can be challenging to make out but the finger lengths of the silver one are perfectly symmetrical, vs on the gold one they are not. When worn on my left hand, the pinky finger has a shorter bone connecting to the ring than the thumb has.

Pictured on the left is the new jewelry I obtained from Temu for $4 CAD. On the right is my exiting jewelry, obtained from Dolls Kill (they no longer carry it). I would not ordinarily order anything on Temu, but if I was going to order a bad dropshipped item, I was not keen to spend a lot on it.

I have this piece of hand jewelry that people often have questions about. Items like it appear frequently on drop shipping sites, and as I recently attempted to acquire a second one in silver, I now have some advice on what features set apart a nice one from a bad one.
