I've been pretty quiet over the past few days, but I think it's worth sharing that I lost my boy last Friday.

Gryphon had a lot of complications suddenly arise from nowhere. Neither my partner and I were prepared. I am devastated.

14 years old. I will miss him forever.

Every single artist that posts on BlueSky should have this saved to their computer because so many of you are posting character torsos all day.

Slowly reaching that goal— if you’re so inclined to check out the Kickstarter or repost— I’d be ever so grateful :)

A reminder that GenAI exists solely so that CEOs don't have to pay creative and skilled people for labor. And it's up to us as consumers to generate as much backlash against this shit as humanly possible.

Today was a nightmare. Gryphon is an extreme case of vertigo, possibly caused by thyroid issues. Vomiting, stumbling, drooling, unable to stand or sit upright.

I don't think it's Gryphon's time. Channel energy his way as he rests tonight. Tomorrow he'll be on new meds, so he may grow older still.

Had my first 40k game of 2026 today! It was also the first game against a Space Marine team - the Black Templars.

It was a lot of fun! I spread out to keep him from teleporting jerks into my lines. A solid win for me! I really need to finish painting my Votann army so I look pretty at 2k points.

Darkest Dungeon is one of my all time favorites. Gifted to me during an exceptionally difficult and isolating part of my life, it was a cathardic way to release my sadness and frustration. I will always be so thankful for it.

"Remind yourself that overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer."
Darkest Dungeon is celebrating 10 years since its wide release today!

In honour of this milestone anniversary, tell us about your most memorable Darkest Dungeon battle! Who was on your team, what were you fighting, and did it end in victory, or defeat?|

Would you all like two more questions? Remember, both of these are level 1 so I expect everyone to do really well. Basic D&D knowledge, right?

How many people do you think learned the word 'pauldron' from World of Warcraft?

Last night our local friends came over to play MTG and board games. They brought this 8$ find they got at a random bring-and-buy: AD&D Trivia game.

A game 100% dedicated to niche scenario triva from possibly the worst iteration of the game. Join me as I share our findings from the evening.

More explosions!

I finished painting the bigger explosion. Not perfect, just till I was happy with them. It's been a nice feeling to just work on something until I'm satisfied.

It'll make for fun 'decor' during 40k matches and TTRPG sessions.
