The narrative that we are being sold that our children's safety is somehow threatened by trans people participating in all aspects of public life as their authentic selves is the exact same bullshit that was peddled about queer folks 30 years ago. It was a lie then and it's a lie now.

I want art thats made by people, because i want to connect with people. I don't care if that art is made for personal reasons or for a coca cola commercial, i want to see art and think about the person who made it. How they got here. why they became an artist. What inspires them.

Just taking a moment to appreciate these wonderful pictures of Tom Baker with @louisejameson.bsky.social & friends at his MBE investiture this week. How does he get *more* like the Doctor the older he gets? #TomBaker MBE - it's about time.🧣🏅

After tons of wrestling with the Discover feed (hundreds upon hundreds of more-like-this and less-like-this responses, and dozens of Blocks) I finally noticed that the best feature of the Discover feed is you can get rid of the Discover feed. 😆

One of tonight's writing tasks is just writing some simple rules examples.
Of all the things to kick my ass a bit, this is kicking my ass a bit. 😆
But I'll push through because then I get to spend the rest of the night writing about the #Hammondal theater community.

It's nice diving back into campaign design with the #Hammondal campaign (companion book to the city guide).
2 of my first 3 books were campaign modules, and ... then I just did a lot of stuff that WASN'T that, for a lot of years. Nice to return with experience.

I think the first edition of Pendragon remains the most beautiful box set in the history of the roleplaying game art form. Gorgeous cover by Jody Lee, innovative but clean layout by Yurek Chodak, wonderful full colour map by Charlie Krank and above all the romantic interior art by Lisa Free.

An earlier draft of the Trostig map for Toast of the Town, before I nailed the colors I really wanted. I would have described the map as "95% done" at this point but it was more like the 50-percent mark in practice 😆

News is like "Patel claims FBI thwarted a terrorist attack" and my first thought is something like they impounded a bookmobile, or prevented a community-theater production of Rent.
