Omg, I love how it goes from Chucky -> Jason -> Leatherface.

What a great idea, and one they’ll never do either 😂

My new years resolution (yeah I know, I like to start early) is rolling 1d100 whenever a length of rope shows up in one of the games I GM for.

None of this multiples of 50 stuff. I don't care what the equipment table (I wrote) says, you found 23ft of rope tied to this grappling hook! Make it work!

#PWTrate I remember fondly a not very long-lived Sinistea that I named

“Mr. Sips”

It’s boiling in October because you’re using ChatGPT to write your emails, Janice.

I’m sorry, but if you let a young kid mess around unrestricted on these things you are absolutely parenting wrong.

I spoke to parents who are letting their young kids play with generative AI and tried to sort through some of the questions they have about it.

"I don’t know what this is doing to their brains," one dad told me.

Meanwhile, Sam Altman says, "Kids love ChatGPT on voicemode."
‘My son genuinely believed it was real’: Parents are letting little kids play with AI. Are they wrong?
Some believe AI can spark their child’s imagination through personalized stories and generative images. Scientists are wary of its affect on creativity

Almost turning 30 means you think about Oceans 11 a lot more than you used to. Which... was already a lot

look ai is completely destroying the world with massive pollution and is using up water at a concerning rate but at least you get to use technology that lies to you and is the primary propaganda mechanism by fascists

More games should take a page from Ape Escape and have analog sticks that directly control your weapons.

Also sick net capture animations. Better than Pokemon, no joke

Spooky season approaches, so I'm going to repost some of my Halloween comics from years past.
A four panel comic called Happy Halloween From The Birds. In panel 1, a pileated woodpecker has pecked its huge gaping rectangular holes in a pumpkin. In panel 2, a yellow-bellied sapsucker has pecked a face using its standard rows of small holes. In panel 3, a satin bowerbird has carved a pumpkin into a bower and placed its favorite blue candies all around it. In panel 4, a loggerhead shrike has impaled mini pumpkins on a fence's metal spikes and is saying "fight me."

Someone who's followed me on Instagram for 2.5 years didn't know I'd done a full tarot deck even though they followed me when I started drawing the cards.
However annoying you think you're being about your work - triple that and it still won't be even close. ✨Repost your work right the fuck now.✨

My long (short, intense, poorly timed) national (personal) nightmare (haven’t slept enough tbh) has finally come to an end (for real this time??). ….and back to the nightmare of the perpetually crumbling endless status quo of renting.

“…have you tried a white wine reduction?” a quiet hireling asks.

Everyone in the party takes it in, shocked looks abound.

“We uh, we eat a lot of fish where I’m from… uh. And a bit of whale…”
