one thing I haven't seen anyone say about watcher yet, but has really disappointed me, is that only three months ago they mentioned in the truth about filming ghost files video that they had to let go of 5 (if I'm remembering the number properly) employees. and when I watched that video I was disappointed that hey hadn't planned the business properly to avoid things like that, but they are primarily creatives, so I figured there would be some business mistakes made along the way. but then hearing they just hired the 2 worth it guys and are reviving an expensive show... I feel like they could've prevented the lay offs better

My comms are open again. ALL funds or kofi profits are going towards a big purchase of sketchbooks.

The students at the school I work at are not encouraged to be artists. There are the few out there who have sketchbooks, but most kids who want one and would use one, won’t be given one. I’m going to bulk order some cheap small ones to gift to the students who want it. I’ve been asking around and making a list and it’s about 20 students so far.

Commission me to help some young artists (11-15 years old) flourish!

Thank you :) the goal amount is on my kofi page.

I'm 100% the crew is going to send the kids a back-to-set list for when they go back to vancouver to start filming season 2

"i really hope you don't have any more work for the rest of this year. fingers crossed [client] isn't giving us more work, but if they do i'm dumping it to january."

"here's my performance evaluation for the team this year: you guys didn't take enough day offs, so make sure to do so next year."

"friendly reminder to remember to log out from all work apps when you go on your holidays!"

"cancelling this meeting session because of festive season. happy holidays all!"

;w; dear gods, i love my coworkers and the working culture in this company so much

Thank you for running this complicated bracket!

I'm so sad though that I realized almost every character left in the AP bracket except one is from a DnD podcast/arc so there's almost no indie ttrpg rep in this round

You're welcome! And yeah, shout-out to Nicky Skyjacks for representing games that aren't D&D.

I was going to offer a teaser of an upcoming bracket because somebody submitted a character from We Will NOT Play D&D, but apparently it's named that because it's a scripted audio drama, and not because they'll play any game except for D&D. :(

Anyways shout out to Interstitial, The Unexplored Places, Campaign, NeoScum, TAZ Amnesty, Chapter and Multiverse, Pest Control, and of course Friends at the Table as well as any other podcasts in this bracket that played non-D&D games that I don't know about.

For those who might want to try listening to actual plays that aren't D&D but want something shorter/less of a commitment than the above, the GM for Campaign also has the podcast One Shot, and there's also Party of One Podcast.

For those wanting to try playing some indie TTRPGs, there's a bunch of cool ones for $10 in this itch.io bundle that's raising money for Medical Aid For Palestinians.

Feel free to reply or reblog with more actual play podcasts that use systems other than Dungeons and Dragons!

I dunno. YAPPING HEADS UP YALL. In the whole post and tags and everything.

Hope everyone enjoys the potential influx of drawings that will be hitting this blog once school starts back up for me(in like four days, nearly technically three since this one is almost over with!). I can't promise I'll post everyy little drawing and doodle, but do expect a lot of traditional stuff!!

Perhaps an influx in drabbles or stories too👀

Truthfully, I'm kinda extra excited for it! Something about traditional drawing just feels extra in-control to me with how my lines are gonna turn out and stuff, probably cause I spent so long doing it! Not that I won't miss some perks of digital, haha! Maybe I'll do one of those things sometimes where you draw it traditionally, and then transfer it over to digital for like finalizing it and stuff?🤔 that could be very interesting..

But I haven't gotten to draw my boys a lot, and so I'm quite excited to get to really work out on drawing them and getting them stylized to my art style! Especially to where I can just crank out doodles of them without lookin up images or anything, hehe!! Will I be a complete mess trying to do it? Yes absolutely. Especially with Octavius. Good sir I mean this in the most respectful way possible but REMOVE YOUR CHESTPLATE before it KILLS ME. You are getting de-soldiered treatment, you can keep your red tunic that's all your getting

Love that my university requires that we register for "thesis credits" during our second year- credits that are pretty much going "we acknowledge that you are doing work on a project right now and that takes time" and don't require faculty resources anywhere close to the extent that classes do- and then charges us for them with all of the freaking "fees" that are apparently calculated per credit.

Like, fine, I can understand the fees for regular classes (though it's still stupid as fuck that we have to pay an 'athletics' fee- like, I could not give less of a fuck about student athletes, and if the athletics program isn't self-sufficient with costs/ticket sales, that's a them problem), but tacking on more fees for credits that aren't even associated with a class? For research that I'm doing mostly on my own? Freaking highway robbery, that is.

that “chromebooks are the reason kids can’t use computers” post is a little dumb. not a single school i’ve worked in had had chromebooks, not even the ones with 1-to-1 classrooms.

and i know to some this will sound like i’m an evil dictator but blocking websites and not allowing kids to download software is a necessary evil if you’re going to use laptops in class.

to blame it all on google is a little weird and conspiracy like imo.

Afsgsgsg I started donating to charities both to help people bc I can (I check em on that website to make sure my money is actually helping people) and to get address labels and cards and shit bc my mom gets so many and I was like 👀

Well be careful what you wish for when you have no one to send mail to and now have a gazillion cards and address labels 😭

I just think it's completely reductive to have your leading lady go through several seasons of emotional growth only to plop her right back where she started - grieving one man and having to choose between two others, because all a woman is in this world is who she marries.
