This week we're painting sets and building decks. I'm painting the Dungeons & Lasers Land of the Giants ruins to add variety to my swamps and forests I'm thinking a lot of grey stone with some mossy accents. Also, if anyone has suggestions for my Ardbert deck that is fun for bracket 3, tell me!
I appreciate Rascal's insights, news, and announcements. If you're into tabletop, maybe consider supporting them too!

There's only one way to say this word when you see it in the wild
We're LIVE finally getting back into some art... after like... a week... of nada... holy guacamole... LET'S GET IT TOGETHER~!! And what's this? Do we look a little different today? It's because we're ROCKING @theinkywarlock.bsky.social's customizable~!! Live: www.twitch.tv/artbychichi
As I wrap up my two weeks of 'I'm allowed to have a vacation after losing my day job', my first goal is to give myself a clear schedule as I tackle freelance. I've blocked out what I hope will be a clear and healthy schedule for running local Teldramir adventures. Aiming for 2 sessions a week!
If you can't come out right now, please don't hate yourself. One day, the meaning of labels will disappear. Please love yourself as you are. The one who can cherish yourself the most is yourself. Because that is your strength and beauty. Chiitan loves you
and our glorious artbook! cover by @valentinainat1.bsky.social
The parade of amazing Paizo stuff continues! I worked on all of these, serving as editing lead for Starfinder Absalom Station and co-editing lead (with the wonderful @legalizegoblins.bsky.social!) for Pathfinder Impossible Magic! If you're at #GenCon, stop by the Paizo booth and say hi from me!
Jason Bulmahn@jasonbulmahn.bsky.social · last wk.But that is still not all! We are also dropping 3 Hardcover books! Impossible Magic is a new book of magic wonders for Pathfinder 2E! Absalom Station is a book that explores the most important place in the Starfinder universe. Finally, Bastion of Blasphemies is the newest hardcover Adventure Path!
Inside of every GM there are two wolves. One says: Create a system of charts and tables for everything you want players to do or achieve. The other says: Fuck it, just roll a d100 and make it all up on the spot.
✨The Inky Warlock Customizable Model is out✨ After more than a year of work, the model is finally finished!!! So if you love cozy fantasy vibes, you should definitely check it out ⚔️🌱 Oh and launch week sale will end Aug 3rd! #inkywarlockmodel
Just your regular reminder that there are other #TTRPG alternatives to #D&D that aren't leaning on AI. You really like 5e, but don't want to support AI? Tales of the Valiant or Level Up 5e. Looking for an old school vibe without the headache of ThAC0? Basic Fantasy. Like crunch? Pathfinder. 1/3

Hm, I think you should read my gothic horror comic about a knight with an ulterior motive to pursue his obsession while the world succumbs to a moon that slowly decays its prey it's full of action, kind of horny, and there's 4 chapters out now! lunarblight.com/comic/chapter-1-convocation
I got asked about AI in games again! I think we underestimate how, while AI use is more rampant in the East than the West, our protections against it here are dramatically worse.
![From the Gamesradar article: "Necrosoft Games creative director Brandon Sheffield also highlights a cultural divide. "I think we are witnessing an attempted assassination on the very concept of creative work, especially in the West," he says. "While I'm anti AI use everywhere, at least in China and Japan people aren't getting fired with the intention to replace them with AI as that's legally difficult. There it's being used to supplement the work. I've seen Chinese companies express amazement at how Western studios are firing folks in order to have 'fewer devs do more' with AI. Why fire all your good people?"
Sheffield says Necrosoft will never use gen AI. "I feel sick about it frankly," he adds, and he would love to see the tech "be treated like a pariah." In his view, "once you let it infect your studio, [it] creatively bankrupts that studio."
"We've also seen that companies outside of games have had to hire back their engineers because AI couldn't cut it – or they're finding that all their tokens are getting spent by execs on 'convert this PDF to a powerpoint' which is cheaper to just have an intern do! So it may be slightly faster, and a lot worse, but it's also more expensive? Neat ... We're dismantling the entire industry in the interest of short-term shareholder gains and it's just a terrible plan.""](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:qpbuxrel3f3njvjw5rakf532/bafkreidb5l652wbuiw2l7xib3zy2c57q55m2mwhvnhdvhe7z73ca2wqupe)
Austin Wood@woodwould.bsky.social · 2w agoHe's only gone and written 2,500 more words about how game devs feel about generative AI. Latest piece quotes around two dozen different people with an indie background. When asked how they feel about gen AI, not one, but two devs responded, "Fuck that shit." www.gamesradar.com/games/it-cre...

Some transgender people see only darkness in front and behind them. The current climate is especially accelerating this. Transgender people just want to love the people they love and live their lives as themselves. Let's all join hands and change the world🫶🌏🫶
Algorithm update. Bunch of people have been doing this exact kind of thing to get around TikTok censorship and it’s wild. Feels like an analogue horror series
I got my Schierke in the mail today! A final gift to myself using the bonus program from my old workplace. Outside of her being adorablle, I really loved that she comes with the spirit she uses to calm down Guts. I'd love to get some spell effects for her to use in the future.
