Hey. I don't know about y'all. But when I say "Universal" I mean UNIVERSAL.
I don't care whether or not a kids parents can pay for school lunch, just give them access to food if they want or need it.
Period.
Same for healthcare, housing, clean water etc.
Basic. Human. Needs.

The fire department doesn't stop and ask your financials before putting out the housefire. They just put out the fucking fire and you don't get a bill for it afterwards!
I want THAT but for all of the basic needs that a human being has.

FUCK!

This is literally what you are doing when you let AI write your book / create your art.

The Writing is the journey even on the hard days - ESPECIALLY on the hard days.
“We can just use gold to hire mercenaries to do the dungeon instead.”

Ok. The five mercs you hire go on to have an incredibly rewarding adventure slaying monsters, bonding, and come back with badass weapons while you all sit around. Great game, guys. See you next week.

Device…hoarding. Because you don’t go get a new one while yours is still fine.

Apparently I am also practicing car hoarding, house hoarding, husband hoarding, dog hoarding, computer hoarding, furniture hoarding and art hoarding.
stupid young people, stop buying a new phone every year if you don't want to be broke. wait no, not like that.

If you don't want to buy books from amazon the ethical solutions are: 1) buy the books elsewhere 2) get them from a library 3) get them from an e-book library 4) read your friends copy. Authors get paid per book sold. Stolen book = stolen labor.

Done. Started this yesterday on stream, and painted up today. This is the standard frame I'll use for the two teams in my stream community. Now to whip up their emblems!

REMINDER: if you think your right-on lefty/socialist/communist/etc. politics justifies pirating books, well guess what? Most writers don't make a living wage from their books or writing work, and stealing from them makes you a class traitor.

We’re not small business owners, ffs - we’re independent contractors, and we are routinely robbed by the world’s dumbest dingbats.

Please remember when boycotting the Zon, most indie book stores do not carry a lot of actual indie authors, and you're mostly supporting the already popular bestsellers that are safe for bookstores to carry. Self-published and indie authors need your support more than ever around this time.

So many people say to boycott the Zon, and then don't do the work to buy elsewhere. I have my books wide, but most of my sales are still on the Zon. My sales stop on the Zon? I bring in basically nothing or pocket change from all other sources. You can't only do half the work here.

You're hurting indie authors. I don't care if that goes against the grain to say. It's true. Not buying from indie authors on the Zon only hurts indie authors. It doesn't even scratch Bezos. So can we stop pretending boycotting indies on the Zon does anything but hurt those indies?

Since I've started here, I've come across many awesome creators and small business owners. With the holiday shopping season here, I figured it was about damn time to finally make a Starter Pack.

Fuck Amazon. Fuck WalMart. Fuck Target. Shop small if you can.

Bump.
Went ahead and did this on the off chance folks would like to do me a solid this holiday season. This isn't a priority for my work, but it would allow me to work on more art and designs without always needing to be in the Lab.

If you just don't like turkey, fair play.

If you're saying it's always dry and flavorless, then I have news for you:

You've never had a properly prepared turkey.

I hope that changes in your future, because a properly prepared bird is a goddamned delight. 😁

As announced, I'm doing a full #Daggerheart December of streams where I'll be working on my campaign frame! First though, I'll be doing a "Daggerheart 101" on December 1st to help newcomers understand the ins and outs of the game, including showing other free online utilities for the system!

Ah yes, I see we're already whatabouting book pirates. Fuck the entire way off. We're not talking about baby formula or insulin. There is literally no justification for stealing art. Not because you're broke, not because you don't have access to a library, nothing. You will survive without it 🚮
