Ran this quickly in Shadowdark the other week. I originally had no plans on talking about it, but I enjoyed my time enough with it that I *had* to review the Sinister Secret of Peacock point by @bradkerr.net! #osr #ttrpg

For my money this is stole one of the most evocative #ttrpg spot arts I have seen. The single tone, the ship in the background. The composition of it is fantastic. #Traveller

This looks amazing. Loving this cover! So striking!
Songbirds is a survival horror dungeon crawler where the dead come back to life and you just constantly get brutalized. It's more disco elysium than D&D. It's got unique classes, body mods, otherworldly beings, and all you need to run the game packed into one PDF.

CATFISH from the elemental plane of bureaucracy from a thing I'm writing. Although at this point it's basically all art hehe #art #OSR

Updated my #Shadowdark module cover, very happy with how the pelican turned out :). #OSR #TTRPG

Some more #Mausritter in Space concepts. Really liked the lazer sword, and I'll probably go back in and flesh out the mouse hacker drawing. She needs a more bespoke outfit, I think. It would be nice to have some heroes who appear throughout the book, so she'll definitely be one of them.

Hey #OSR folks, my dumb adventure I wrote for Shadowdark is on sale at a PWYW price point until the end of Tuesday (today). You can grab it for free here, or you can pay the suggested price and buy me some avocado toast.

A manet study and some #mausritter sketches for Mice in Space. Refrigerator spaceship! Rat man with laser-axe! And a reference to a classic horror monster.

Glass is really hard to do, and I really suck at oil. I also think I need to do some flower studies. #TTRPG #Art

Absolutely obsessed with this painting. There's a sort of clumsy whimsy to it that is just a joy.

Hey #OSR #TTRPG folks, I'm looking for self-published and indie adventures from lesser-known/unknown designers to review on my blog. Read a good adventure recently and want someone else to know about it? Post below! Thanks :)

Some sketches from today! Some mice, and then a quick still life study.

Last part of the day is a mockup for a #Mausritter module that doesn't exist. Maybe it will one day, since I'm getting the urge to write soon. Been enjoying preparing for a one shot for friends on the 6th.

In my Traveller game, we kept track of made up food items. My favorite one was the Piss Cylinder: made 4 of the most mediocre canned lagers, it is the most average shitty beer you can think of. It is so average that drinking it imparts a sort of temporary Nirvana.

Spent the last month mapping the blogosphere by its links. The graph is finally ready

Communities clump into a big hex and the whole thing looks like a star map

What are blogs anyway but stars in the sky?

First blogpost in a long time since starting grad school. #OSR #Mausritter folks if you have any suggestions on running Mausritter for new players (as I will be in a couple of weeks) let me know :)

Felt great to be writing again!
