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.

I've posted this on YouTube and elsewhere, but whether or not I end up playing #daggerheart, it'll be with it to buy the books as fantasy art books. They have hired some amazing artists. #ttrpg

Dang it, I spent my #ttrpg budget already forgetting that black Friday is a thing. Next year need to reserve some for the end of the year

I fell down a hole of "people who love wicked and picked up the book thinking it was going to be a fluffy fantasy romance story"
😂😂😂😂

I adored that book for a long time and was shocked when they made it into a family friendly musical.

It's dark and satirical and wonderful.

I've been posting here and on my blog about various convergent evolutions in the #ttrpg space. Last night watching Darrington Press at #PAXU I saw they are adding elemental ancestries to #Daggerheart . This follows @koboldpress.com #tov Player's Guide 2 introducing the same thing (releasing in Jan)

I know a number of writers who draft in pen and I consider them like I would someone who insists on making bread by first planting the wheat
And if you're already quite mad, like Neal Stephenson, you might write upwards of 3500 pages with a fountain pen.

This funny conversation happened between me and one of my kids today as we leveled up her #TalesOfTheValiant character. www.ericsbinaryworld.com/2025/11/22/t... #TTRPG

Sometimes kids just shock you in what they say.

#ttrpg For about a year now I've read in the @koboldpress.com modules "many of the encounters can be resolved through combat, they have not all been balanced to the party of the suggested level." I thought it was a weird quirk of KP until Brennan said something to the same effect on #criticalrole S4

Wizened Millennials sneering at Gen Alpha: I told you the old ways are best

(Gen X, petting its moldering set of the 1983 World Book Encyclopedia: Soon. Soon.)
Relying on ChatGPT to teach you about a topic leaves you with shallower knowledge than Googling and reading about it, according to new research that compared what more than 10,000 people knew after using one method or the other.

At this point *for me* access to your discord is not a benefit. I'm already in too many discord servers. If it were my full time job, I'd still not be able to keep up

This should almost be instructions for everyone at any convention, especially #2 and #3
I am going to PAX Unplugged next week if you see me:
✨Please say hi!
✨Please ask before physical contact unless we’ve met before
✨I want to meet everyone! If I look standoffish, I’m probably just overstimulated.
✨Pitch me and ask me questions! I love working with new people!

Hey, @paizo.com is there an RSS feed available for the blog on the redesigned site? It's the best way for me to keep with with your posts

@planetmoney.bsky.social re: Days of Our Tariffs - that UPS things was wild. I would 100% also have thought it was a scam to be asked for a check by the "UPS guy". In my life the only thing I know *for sure* has been affected by tariffs are #ttrpg #Kickstarter rewards
