Another day in the office, another day right clicking on CoPilot and unpinning it from my taskbar. First thing I do every morning. (No I can't uninstall it unfortunately, all programmes on our devices are locked in by IT)

I picked up almost as much from the library as I did from school—real history, not that polished nonsense we were fed!
In celebration of #YorkshireDay, please enjoy this Sean Bean bastard collection. Sound up, bastards.
My profile has devolved into pictures of what I've harvested every day. And today is going to be the biggest lot yet! Keep your eyes (and veggies) peeled. I still run a ttrpg shop and will get back to promoting properly soon, but my garden is the only thing currently keep The Horrors at bay.
everything we do is Human Made. hand sculpted, moulded by hand, cast by trained resin and metal workers, individually packed and posted by me #FuckAi (art by @hinokodo.com, used under licence)
✨My comms are open again! ✨ I have slots from August - September wide open! If you're looking for a qualified editor, sensitivity reader, or cultural consultant for your next TTRPG or novel feel free to drop me an email (in bio) or DM here (I do reduced rates for small/indie creators) 🥰
I own a pair of hair straighteners that I use exclusively for ironing fabric to line dice trays with. What weird craft quirks or equipment do you have laying around your workstations?
These aren't prints, they're traditional putty sculpts. They're made with a mix of Milliput and Greenstuff by our sculptor Alan Marsh. Sculpted at scale, they'll be moulded into silicone or rubber, and then the imprints filled with molten pewter to make the casts. More info in alt!
Not really posting cos the world is on fire and I don't want to be online (I know I have a business to promote and am bad at doing it - check www.tabletoptinkering.com if you want ttrpg stuff) For my own sanity I continue to perform hobbit activities - this year's first harvest of po-tay-toes
Piper's custom treat jar has cracked beyond repair and the seller I commissioned it from no longer exists. It has a custom silhouette on it in purple holographic and lots of cute paws. If anyone knows of someone in the UK who makes similar ones (including silhouette) I'd love a recommendation
Hey friends living in the UK, would you care to add your signature? Fuck these damn data centres.
Microsoft is planning to build three massive AI data centres in Leeds. It’ll drain thousands of litres of water from the River Aire and become the city's biggest carbon emitter. We can still stop the council's sign-off, but we need more voices. Add your name: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/pr...

It’s Disability Pride Month! I’ve been writing a few poems while struggling with really bad hip pains even through my med. This one is about how it feels trying to walk through it. (My Patreon is always totally FREE, so check it out if you like poetry or fantasy!) www.patreon.com/TheAilingWit...
WIP Peek: Poem 01 | The Ailing Witch
This poem feels pretty finished, but it will likely continue to be futzed with. I wanted to share it now anyway, though, especially during

Today's hobbit activity: harvesting our meager cucumber haul and pickling them up.
My little sister is a tattoo artist (which is great for me), but I'd be bloody awful at it.
Thought experiment- if you were suddenly appointed to do your sibling’s job, how badly would you suck at it?
Haven't mentioned it here but we are nominated in the Ennies for Fan Award Best Publisher. My part time job caught wind of it and put this up on their socials today. It's very sweet. You won't see me promoting to vote for us because of my recent fuck up - however thank you to those who submitted us!
I once asked a priest to bless a printer that I was in the middle of fighting with and he went "I only bless things when there's a chance it'll take" and then turned and walked out of the room.
I am tech support to the bone and do not like to mystify computer stuff but I genuinely believe in my heart of hearts that printers have demons in them. There is literally no other explanation.
My favorite Sam Neil fact will always be that he designed a future Australian flag that replaces the union jack with the aboriginal flag for Event Horizon and insisted the film use it.
Fuck me. It's been a while since a celebrity death hit me but Jurassic Park is such a massive part of my life, and Event Horizon was my gateway into horror. I spent my entire childhood wanting to dig around in deserts because of this man's acting. We lost a real one today.

Yay my expansion for my current favourite board game (Uh Oh, Dino!) came from @ludoliminal.bsky.social. It's a shame the box got beaten up in transit but the contents are great and this keyring is so cute

I've been reading the rules to #CARNIVORE by Buer Games — the people who did 1490 Doom — and think it's pretty cool. It's a miniature skirmish game where you play as carnivorous dinosaurs fighting over resources after the meteor impact. buergames.com/pages/carniv...
