BTW, if you happen to be a person that has sway with TED or TEDx, I'm totally up for doing a talk on this.

Speaking of giveaways, I've decided to collect my freebie #DnD designs into a free anthology and publish it on the DM's Guild here:
https://www.dmsguild.com/product/252945/Freebie-GrabBag-A-Growing-Anthology

As I gradually design more freebie content, I'll add it to the anthology.

Enjoy your freebies!

Hi I’d like to add you to my amateur network on Mastodon

This morning, prompted by this clipping from @leonardr's great novel Constellation Games, I started a new season of the email newsletter PRIMES with a recommendation to read the book: https://tinyletter.com/primes

All I know is every Halloween party this year better be serving punch out of a black sarcophagus.

This morning, thinking about #florence and #mangkhut, I'm reminded of that report from a while back about how energy usage from mining cryptocurrency is rolling back some of the measures we've taken against climate change.

There is no ethical cryptocurrency under global warming.
