This morning, the D&D team and Magic's Studio X informed our leadership of our intent to unionize. We love the games we make and the work we do, and unionizing is how we protect that work. unitedwizardsofthecoast.com/news/dnd-stu...

Just lodged a complaint via phone that I realized halfway through was an AI chatbot. Friends, I am **fuming** that companies can't even have humans field customer service calls now.
The idea that these words came out of the mouth of a District Attorney is utterly apalling: "She never says that she was drugged without her knowledge. She admits to taking drugs and alcohol voluntarily and with knowledge. She does not allege that she was forced to engage in any acts. (cont'd)
(Shared this on Facebook, but just as appropriate here) Today is Rosh Hashanah. For Jews, that means we are entering a new year, and a period of reflection, of gratitude, and of confession for our individual and collective shortcomings.
BTW if you enjoyed Nolan's "The Odyssey" (or any version of that story), I have a free RPG PDF (d20/3E/PF) about playing in mythic Greece called The New Argonauts: • Drivethru link: www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/1... • 5E conversion by @mikemyler.bsky.social: mikemyler.com/2018/02/11/d...
Today kicks off our weeklong Labor Day sale! Almost everything sitewide is 25-50% off from now until 9/8. It’s the perfect time to pick up those miniatures you’ve been eyeing, that board game you’ve had on your wishlist, or just a little treat for yourself!
I'm so very tempted to pitch a panel on being a good audience member at a convention panel. "I Have A Question That's More Of A Question..."
Y'all, I got nothing. Nothing. This week has sucked for public news.

If ChatGPT and a human expert with a stack of accredited degrees disagree on what the truth is, I'm going to go with the one who values intellectual integrity and might experience consequences for being incorrect. Stop trying to use AI bots as proof.

No matter what fandom or space you're happy in, there is almost certainly a Community Manager you need to thank. They take infinite flak, receive zero credit for the work they do, and are the conduit between The Audience and the creative team in both directions. Thank your local CM, y'all. Twice.
Had a wonderful time at Gen Con. Spent some time with good friends, made some new ones, and I am recharged about creative stuff. See y’all down the road!
As we get ready for the last day of #GenCon, I'm still buzzed and excited about the wonderful #ForgottenRealms seminar we had on Thursday night, Candlekeep Presents.
It's great how folks are celebrating Jimothy, and now there's a number of other people sharing videos of their pets with short spines and other body differences. It helps normalize variety rather than shaming. Awesome. Now do humans.
Fellow Crawlers, after a week+ of painting, I'm pleased to give to you Prepotente Lorenzo De La Rosa, or simply Pony to his friends. I hope you dig it. #DungeonCrawlerCarl #DigitalArt "Take a Bow" Digital Painting

How I imagine the conversation going: Pentagon: So, remember Project Insight from Winter Soldier? Anthropic: Oh, yeah. What a disastrously dangerous application of tech. P: Disastr… No! We need you to do exactly that thing. A: Umm, no? P: What kind of SkyNet patriots are you anyway?
"There's no use trying," she said. "One can't do impeachable things." "I daresay you haven't had much practice," said the Orange King. "When I was your age, I always did it for half-an-hour a day. Why, sometimes I've done as many as six impeachable things before breakfast."
