The fact they have to do an interview with a fucking frog shows how deranged this all is, GOOD ON YOUR FROG GUY, KEEP ON HOPPIN!

This has been a much longer process than I had hoped or anticipated but they're done. They are finally done.

The whole @swordandkey.bsky.social Horizon's Call crew now has full dice sets!

A jumbled collection of 5 different dice sets spread out in a pile. They are representative of the 5 party members in Sword and Key's dungeons and dragons campaign Horizon's Call. Individual set photos will come in a later post.

The president says there are very few stores left in Portland, Oregon, and the ones that are left are made of plywood.

I know we’re numb to this, but in any other time he’d have been removed by the 25th Amendment by now

Trump: "Portland, I mean -- every time I look at that place it's burning down. There are fires all over the place. When a store -- there are very few of them left -- but when a store owner rebuilds a store they build it out of plywood. They don't put up storefronts anymore. They just put wood up."

This isn't a thing in any creative circles, ever. The only time you don't need to talk to an artist about using their work in your publication is if you buy their stock art, which comes with a license that covers a conversation about rights, usage. This person's explanation is extra ripe bullshit.

Screencap from reddit.

"sorry I caught you off guard with the post. In the dnd homebrew space it isn't standard practice to gen in contact with artists for incorporation their work, provided that they are adequately credited and that the homebrew work is available for free, both of which are the case here."

Common does not mean right or legal.

You cannot take someone's art, attributed or not, and use it for your project unless explicitly paid for or given permission for free use

Just cause it's on the internet doesn't mean It's free to use wherever for whatever

It might not seem like much. But if ANYONE use ANY artist's work to distribute product for profit or not for profit, without the artist's permission, it's stealing.

I know there might be some people who will say, "but it's exposure!"

No. Full stop. PAY THE ARTIST.

The xenophobic author that @bitmapbooks.com is defending has a prejudice that is not exclusive to Brazilians.

He has plenty of hate in his heart and have some things to say about our fellow hermanos from Argentina as well... by calling them primates.

Capture from a tweet from @theWellRedMage, account from Moses Norton, author from Bitmap Books: "No, since the turbo controller is Japan exclusive and you'll need to order it from a primate in south Argentina In order to get.."

Aenc Thon is the leader of the Fuath in Il Mheg. They're known for their magical prowess in water magic and illusion magic, ruling within the magnificent castle called Dohn Mheg. It's debated whether they are called the Lord of Lingering Gaze or Lord of the Lengthsome Gait.

Dire Facts Day #5:
The Silent Cliffs of Il Mheg are where once some townspeople tried to flee from sin eaters. It is said that they never had the chance to even speak before the faeries came and changed all of them into mute leafmen.

Good Jenanna's Grace of Il Mheg named after a royal highness who was daughter to a Voeburtite king many years ago. At night, the mountain pass catches the light from Lyhe Ghiah and the glow is similar to the princess's eyes.
