I just released the Passkey Solo Expansion for the Passkey Jam. Passkey is the #ttrpg system by Penflower Ink powering Stravagante! & Greenjackers! These games are already packed with great random tables, with the expansion solo play is even easier: jimmyshelter.itch.io/passkey-solo...

This is the SHIFTER a playable character Vibe for The Lost Bay RPG, whose powers revolve all around transformation of self and their environment The mind bending art as always is by TLB artist @egallagher.bsky.social

before I became more invested in digital drawing, gouache was the medium that I started to fall in love with! here's a throwback to some of those, that I turned into art prints. think it's time to start painting again

this! creators love to know that have an experience with their stuff - don't be too shy about sharing

Reminder that telling a designer a story of what happened when you ran their adventure is better than almost anything else you can do for them (apart from recommending the adventure to a friend). Just got a story in the comments on Itch for an adventure and it absolutely made my day. #ttrpg

From last year's Zombieskulltober, right at the arms of Skully July. #ttrpg #art

there's a sadness when I consider how many of the folks I followed the most and interacted the with 3 years ago when got into ttrpgs seem to have quit, vanished from socials, or are fully entrenched on X. like, they don't post on IG anymore either, perhaps general attrition back to discord?

In Canada, I used ecompack.ca to get my cardboard mailers and to avoid Uline.

For anyone curious about Uline, we reported in 2022 on how the boom in online shopping had enriched the company's owners, who have used their wealth to fund far-right causes: www.propublica.org/article/ulin...

That Cardboard Box in Your Home Is Fueling Election Denialwww.propublica.org A previously unreported boom in profits for the shipping supply giant Uline has provided the funds for a deeply conservative Midwestern family to bankroll anti-democracy causes around the country.

with all the anti-AI stances, I am curious to see how many folks actually turn away from hyper-pseudo-plastic-mag-gloss art in products, and actually seek out art with flaws, blemishes, human touch, bad proportions, etc even pre-AI, far too many people made claims of generic art being "good" art...
