It would seem that Ravelry is getting into the trenches with us and fighting white supremacists on their site.
I think we should all go and cheer them on over on Twitter \o/

They are having to deal with the same Free Speech advocates as we at #Tusky did. But they are taking it in stride 🎉

#GenCon frenz: There's one ticket back up for grabs for my Mobile Frame Zero session. (Friday, 9am-noon.)

I get so annoyed when people talk about D&D like it's the only RPG that exists 😕

Moving day two of two: I recognize the privilege in being able to hire movers, and I also feel terrible about making them haul heavy stuff up to the third floor.
Also, the dog fell into the "koi pond" (as the landlord refers to it) in the back. (Bulldogs do not float.)
Moving, recap from end of day one (of two): Did not barf.
(TY @BigTuffAl and @Mantisking for the words of support.)
Moving, day one of two.
Status: feeling barfy.

Check in with your emotions. How are you feeling?

There's no person in the whole world like you, and I like you just the way you are. ~ Mr. Rogers
You know, it's really only lately that I've started to feel like I miss G+. I hate trying to filter through the noise on yon birdsite to try to keep up on gaming peoples for gaming stuff.
(i know i could make a list, i don't care.)
Dear gibbering forces of eldritch madness that dwell within the spaces in between:
On this Gen Con event registration day (one of your highest of holy days) grant us the reprieve from the onslaught of hell on earth and allow us to acquire tickets to the events which we covet so badly.
Grant us a glimmer of hope as you did on that previous of blessed holidays, the High Holy Housing Lottery, before descending upon us and dragging us into the howling darkness of the beyond.
Iä iä, Mike.
I am still working on my thing, but I built a thing for sifting through Gen Con events and building a watchlist/calendar. It will continue to evolve.

I've got three weeks to find a job before I lose my backup plan to foreclosure, and another month past that before I lose my home. I need gas money to get to job interviews. I'm eating the shipping on these bracelets to try and cover that. If you don't wear #jewelry or these aren't your style, please boost. They're anodized aluminum, brass, bronze, and stainless steel, all 7 inches, and all $15 to https://paypal.me/tarlimanjoppos or cash.app/$tarlimanjoppos #maille #art #mastoart #chainmail
What, doesn't everyone spend their spare time building a Gen Con event browser webapp?
So, we’re cleaning things out and packing to move next month. Which stresses me out. But we’re going to be moving to a place within three blocks of a game store. Spoiler: that stresses me out too. Social anxiety is rad. 😑
Well, ugh...
"Sons of the Singularity is a small RPG publisher. Last year, they kickstarted The Sassoon Files, a sourcebook for the popular Call of Cthulhu RPG and Trail of Cthulhu RPG. As a lot of publishers, they did the printing in China. The same day that the print was finished, a Chinese Government [official?] decided that it was 'problematic', so they burned the entire print run."
My Space-Cossacks are finished! Woohoo! (Also: theme appropriate dice. Though I keep debating if I think I have steady enough hands to do hit the numbers with some gold paint.)

It might sound corny at first, but try listing just three things a day you're grateful for. You can do it in a cheap notebook and no one ever has to see it but you.
