If you're a content creator and have any interest in brands, make sure that you have a way to contact you somewhere on your profiles -- and make it easy to find.

Most brands won't spend time digging for info, they'll just move on to someone else.

Not me though. I'll dig. I just won't like it.

An amazing artist and friend of Magi crhysbe.bsky.social made these ABSOLUTELY STUNNING posters to commemorate Ignite Recall.

It turns out that @themomobee.bsky.social and I were caught in 4K for our Cowboy Bebop inspirations for the visual language of the show and Crhysbe nailed it.

Incredible.

This is it. The end.

It's hard to say good bye, but I am really proud of everything we did in this campaign. 30 episodes and all bangers. I love this cast so much, and the guests we had on throughout the series.

See you in the Wildsea, fam. 🫡

MagiRPG @magirpg.bsky.social · Sep 9

I love when the BBEG shows up to gloat.

Will she get what she deserves? Come watch the SERIES FINALE of Ignite Recall tonight at 6pm PT / 9pm ET.

We live in a world of total abundance, where basically every problem that exists is solvable. The hard borders between countries makes things even worse.

I dream of a future without lines on a map, where we can -- finally -- be one people.

Frank Fields @mirhi.bsky.social · Sep 5

I find that the integrations of all nations into a world government to not only be necessary but a moral requirement.

When you break it down, how is it ethical to give people better or worse lives, or stifle opportunities based on where someone was born?

Hey all you Leftists and Progressives out there!

Time to start running for City Council and State Assembly.

If you're tired of center left Dems and pretend progressives, then organize and replace them. You are likely just as "qualified" and would do a better job.

Frank Fields @mirhi.bsky.social · Aug 29

This new wave of organizing and unionizing in the gaming space is wonderful.

For too long, there has been a cycle of Launch successful product --> Fire team responsible.

Tech's constant chasing or profit is a plague upon society. They are never happy with a modest profit.

This needs to end.

Frank Fields @mirhi.bsky.social · Aug 27

I'm about to do this again with two new games and I think people should normalize this more as it can really take a huge burden off of everyone involved.

It's collaborative storytelling afterall.

Frank Fields @mirhi.bsky.social · Aug 27

So you have limited time, but you want to tell more stories... what to do?

Co-GM

I previously worked on a game with a trio of GMs where 1 person would run it, 1 would TD, and 1 would be purely writing (me).

I had just become a father so I didn't have time to run it myself.

I realize that with how limited time is that I'm being more judicious about how I spend it and who I spend it with.

Energy is almost as precious as time in that respect. Can I write 500 words today? Do I play games for an hour? Do I take my son to the park?

Better to make the choices consciously.

Frank Fields @mirhi.bsky.social · Aug 25

When I started reading this book I had a feeling I would love it, and then after running a one shot, I knew there was something special here.

I'm beyond excited to dive into the world of the Wildsea with some of the best people I know.

MagiRPG @magirpg.bsky.social · Aug 25

The Wildsea is a wonderful and dangerous place.

I've changed careers slightly every new job I got. At first it hurt me. HMs would tell me I'm not specialized enough or didn't have expertise.

Now, having intentionally learned so many skills, my versatility has become a huge asset in my career.

Always learn, always grow. Don't give up.
