The Order of the Mercybinder serves the Marrowmother as healer and executioner both.

Strike with clarity. Heal with precision.
Endure until the burden breaks you.

Read the lore behind this homebrew #Daggerheart subclass:

My poem The Archaeologist is out today with @SWWIM Every Day.

It’s about my dad and how he moved through the house after my mom died. Not cleaning, not throwing things out. Just...studying. Like grief was something that needed to be cataloged.

My players didn't plan to start a revolution. It was just an early session joke before it caught feelings. #Daggerheart #Eidrosa #TTRPG

He's going to start calling for an investigation into the connection between Steve Urkel and Stefan Urquelle.

Why are they never seen in the same place at the same time?

I’m totally stoked to share that I’ve been accepted into the #UCLA Professional Program in Writing for Television!

So incredibly excited to start building my craft, finding my voice, and telling the kinds of stories that matter to me.

And I can’t wait to see where this next chapter leads.

Guys, help, I've fallen in love with a blanket, my dirty clothes, and an emotionally unavailable breaker box. #dateeverything

Okay, but the way that this entire interaction made me laugh out loud though. #dateeverything

That ending to #SquidGames was everything it needed to be. It broke my heart in the best way.

The violence and brutality of the three seasons isn't retroactively sterilized, but made smaller by Gi-hun's end game decision.

His choice ripples far beyond the game hall and it sticks.

OMG. I tried the ChatGPT prompt where you ask it to generate an image that shows what it feels like chatting with you on any given day.

I am SHOOK.

#Daggerheart by @spenserstarke.bsky.social and #DarringtonPress feels like storytelling with muscle and memory.

It's not a sandbox. It's a shoreline.
Things drift in, wash away, and your game is shaped by what stays.

OMG!! My #Daggerheart Core Set came today and it is sooooo pretty!

I can't wait to start a campaign with my kids!

Who has two thumbs and spent all day making up rules for new monk orders in Exandria that serve the Matron of Ravens.

This DM.

And they are fucking METAL.

You know it's going to be a good #dnd campaign when one of the characters is described as "Wednesday Addams meets JoJo Siwa."

Between the new #pope and #thunderbolts, it's been a big week for Bobs.

💅 Leo XIV Aesthetic?

Papal Lace & Unbothered Grace.
He’s gonna walk out in the full regalia...and then drop a homily that basically says:

“Redistribute your wealth and stop confusing cruelty with orthodoxy.”

Okay but I kind of want the new Pope to take the name Maria I.
May 8, 2025 at 4:48 PM
A new #pope has entered the chat!

Didn't expect #thunderbolts to be a commentary of the current ineffectual resistance of the @democrats.org, but here we are.
