I simply had the most advanced language model known to civilization installed in my head at birth.
My answer is LOL ROFL (dickbrain) The terminally AI-pilled can't even *imagine* some people have *never* asked stochastic parrots to cheat at their job for them.
I coded a web app that xerox's your images for fun! Just drag an image in and play with the dials. If nothing shows up (or it's all black) you may want to play with the threshold (first slider). Press "S" to save the image! editor.p5js.org/Chaoclypse/f...
On the upside, it's now been two weeks in a row with nothing breaking! Unfortunately, now it's August and those bills are about to hit and we could also use some help covering groceries before next week. As usual, any help appreciated: gofund.me/80b8f0c18 www.paypal.com/paypalme/Uns...
In response to the unprecedented number of game developers laid off this year, we have created a bundle on itch to benefit a Game Industry Hardship Fund, managed by @videogameworkers.bsky.social. More than 100 games for 10+ bucks! Please share widely and donate generously! itch.io/b/3802/game-...
Thanks to whoever bought my copy of Ogre Designer's Edition, I was terrified of dragging that monster home.
GenCon more like Jen... Kon, the j/k! Games con, am I right? no seriously i'm not sure
If you buy every game we have I'll give you a wholesaler rate
Final Gencon day starts in 20 minutes, what if y'all bought all the games so I didn't have to pack?
Last chance to get Let Me Be Your Thrall! This bloody sapphic vampire game is waiting for you! (These are the last 3 copies!)
I want to thank everybody at the @igdn-official.bsky.social get-together and in @rosspayton.bsky.social's crew for being really positive and supportive Saturday night without knowing how much I needed it. Got caught up in some dim thoughts and it shook me right out of it.
Today's the last day of Gen Con! Go check out @wetinkgames.bsky.social booth 2560! They've got Garbage & Glory (which I'm reviewing soon on TTRPGkids) and lots of other awesome games that are great for kids!
In our little cottage industry, stereotyping Romani as thieves and witches in TTRPGs continues, sometimes under a thin fantasy veneer, sometimes with full slurs involved. It needs to called out more often than it is.
Today is Roma Holocaust Memorial Day. Around 500,000 Roma & Sinti people were killed by the Nazis in the Porajmos. There was no state given to them after the war. Commemoration of their suffering is often diminished or forgotten. Racism towards Romani people across Europe remains acceptable.
Gold Ennie winning "Whispers of the Woods" is now available on @rpgtrader.bsky.social. To celebrate this accolade, we offer 100 digital copies for a price of a latte! Please enjoy, buy, and/or share! :)

I was on for a seminar held by @oneshotrpg.bsky.social in the arena lower level so it's like "we just stay here, then?"
So Jae, how's GenCon? GenCon:
To vaguepost, if you don't like people criticizing you for being shitty, maybe, I dunno, maybe even try vaguely to understand why you're being criticized for being shitty. I find it easy to not be shitty, or at least ain't nobody comin' at me to call me shitty, skill issue.
Good morning! Between needing groceries and an upcoming bill - comms are open! Dm if interested, please.
I'm opening up two $30 icon slots as well!! ^w^
The Spanish dancer (Hexabranchus sanguineus) is a large, vibrant red sea slug that swims by rippling its body like a flamenco skirt, stores toxic chemicals from its sponge diet for defense, and grows up to 60 or 90 centimeters long. Photograph from Coral Bay in Western Australia
In the lead up to convention season I start thinking I miss going to them, and then the pictures roll in with nary a mask in sight and I remember why I'm sitting on my ass at home not seeing any friends or selling any games
Is Rush of Ikorr: A) an aloe-flavored IPA B) a Grecian prog rock band C) a Dr. Strange spell D) an illness that afflicts 1 in 5 captive goldfish

The IGDN Game Room at GenCon is a great place to game. In ICC 243, you'll find Game Designers running their own indie TTRPGs. If you're looking for a game at GenCon this weekend, there are still a few seats left: www.gencon.com/event-catalo... #GenCon2026 #GenCon #IndieGames #ttrpgCommunity #TTRPGs
Just dropped off production proofs of Homecoming and CHUCK to the @possibleworlds.bsky.social booth 1553 at gen con and they’re gorgeous there’s also a wet proof of REALIS 👀
Flashing back to when WotC had the strategy of buying up the rights to popular game properties they thought could make a CCG to compete with Magic, and did their own. Somebodies thought Vampire, Battletech, or Cyberpunk could dethrone the cardboard king. Wild to imagine that as a possibilty...
