The Hellgrott is one of the many creatures in Strangehollow that you might be tempted to pet, but it is advisable not to. Find out more in my book Savage Strangehollow on Kickstarter. Campaign ends on Thurs! buff.ly/raZbj7q

Sure seems that way! I did in the end find a canon that is JUST a printer. My ancient A3 epson is finally dying it seems. Printheads are fooked.

Emily Hare @emilyhare.co.uk · 13h

Is it not even possible to buy a printer that JUST prints? I have a scanner, I don't need a scanner OR copier too! Why do they all have to do everything?

An illustration of a person from the chin down. They have both their arms around black wolves, which are asleep and cuddled against the person. Two more wolves are asleep and piled on top. The person and the animals are all smeared and smattered with blood, indicating they had a great meal together.

A man curled over onto his elbows, his head in his hands, amidst green leaves. A glowing, luminous dagger dangles above his neck and spine. His hands are cupped and outstretched towards the sky. Luminous liquid slips through his fingers.

A small child holding a bunny rabbit stuffed animal standing in front of a line of darkened forest. Inside the forest are lots of glowing sets of eyes

An oil painting of a foggy, monochrome forest with a singular man with glowing eyes standing in front of it. Before him are multiple shadows of wolves, their eyes glowing in the darkness as well.

SO hard to not make it an emotional rant LOL

Emily Hare @emilyhare.co.uk · 16h

Yeah. Trying to compose an email to them directly (not just the trustpilot review). No idea if it's even worth it, kind of feeling like an angry karen wanting to talk to the manager by the end of the email LOL

The Red Death is a formidable dragon that lives in the mountains of Strangehollow. It is a giant beast and will fly over the thousands of sq miles of the forest to search for prey. There is only one creature that predates it and it is a leviathan of the sky. 1/2

Illustration of a drow standing in front of a large white snake with wings. The drow has long white hair and dark green clothing with copper accents. He holds a dagger above his head with blue magic arcing between the blade and his hand. They are in the Underdark, with blue spores and mushrooms surrounding them.

Illustration of the fellowship from the Fourth Age actual play. They are at a high altitude looking down into a valley with a river. From left: Theodas (bald elf, many scars, dark beard, golden interlocking armor, dull blue cape); Iairen (elf, medium brown skin, kinky brown hair with undercut and half up style, blue robes, holding a blue palantir); Mistiel (elf with dark brown skin, copper cape, long white box braids half up, golden armour); Eona (human, dark brown long hair with golden scales woven through, leathers and cape, holding a sword); Chicory (hobbit-elfish, lilac dress, pale skin, brown hair in loose waves, holding a wooden staff that crooks over and holds a glowing white stone); Aerlind (elf, dark hair, blue fine outfit, tanned skin, east asian features, holds an astrolabe in one hand).

Illustration from first person view, showing a hand holding up an opalescent stone with a hole in the center. The stone has brass filigree, and through the hole is a view of a mountain sheep. The background is a mountainous landscape. There are slight magical effects showing that the view through the stone is a zoomed in view of the background.

An alabaster gargoyle and a feminine figure dressed in black robes with their faces shadowed by hoods. The pair are within a gothic styled church, standing before an altar on a dais, preaching to spectators behind the POV. Candles cast plenty of light in the room despite the flames being purple, and all the decorations and the architecture is gothic in design. They look as though they are in the middle of performing a sermon in unison

The biggest takeaway from this graph is that six of the seven most unpopular prime ministers since records began are *the last six prime ministers we've had*

Does this look like the politics of a functional democracy?

Thanks! It's watercolour though, not pencils :)

Emily Hare @emilyhare.co.uk · 19h

Yep, absolutely ridiculous!

Emily Hare @emilyhare.co.uk · 19h

Hence me putting '' around 'deal'. It is a one page embarrassment of no consequence, yet it's being spoken about like it's fixed everything (thankfully the R4 journalists this morning were pointing this out, that it wasn't a significant document and had no details).
