Pinned intro post? Yes!

Hi. I'm Grassy. I'm a hobbiest TTRPG designer who loves trash and has too many OCs. Also a fluffy golden dog with a bucket hat and zero braincells.

I care too much about retro interests like pro wrestling, Sonic The Hedgehog comics, and the good Final Fantasy games.

I don't have a 40th anniversary episode of NES Works for you this week, BUT I do have a couple of NES recaps now that we've witnessed the U.S. birth of the 16-bit consoles and can get back to the NES chronology again. Here's a look at the best games of ’88, as determined by… me: youtu.be/Z4UoH9Wo3O0

Well, folks, I'm in a situation again.

Rent is paid for the month but I'm SIGNIFICANTLY overdrawn and need a big assist. Anything and everything helps, and you get another free pic of my cute cat as repayment. What a deal!

I was smart enough to stop playing EastBound after the first chapter because it was even worse. Never played a game so determined to show you it knows what fun is and that you the player don't deserve any.

Grassdragon (Freelance Wife) @grassdragon193.bsky.social · 5h

Iconoclasts.

A fucking miserable experience. Bad platforming, bad combat, a plot that's just people you hate fucking each other over for 20 hours while you watch and then you accidentally save the world by punching an alien bird cop that randomly turns up. lol lmao so random.

Saw a dead body today. Not my first this year, but the first I wasn't directly related to. Didn't know they were dead until later when I saw the multiple ambulances and a police car parked nearby. I'm sad at how little I feel about it.

Go tell somebody you love them, right now.

A four panel comic strip. An anthropomorphic wolf man runs into an office where three others are working at their desks. He says, "The fire marshal is coming for annual inspections!" In the next panel, a seated wolf is playing with a remote control airplane, and a smoke detector with an open battery compartment is mounted on the wall above him. The first wolf says "Put that 9 volt back in the smoke detector!" In the third panel, an anthropomorphic dog holds a power strip while standing next to a sculpture comprised of multiple power strips. The first wolf says "Hide your..."Daisy Chain Power Strip" sculpture!?" In the fourth panel, a bear proudly displays his t-shirt which reads "I love storing combustibles around radiators." The first wolf, in exasperation, yells "CHANGE YOUR SHIRT!"

I saw something recently that said a strategy for adhd is you just need to commit to doing 30%. The full scope of 100% of a project is just too overwhelming. So just start with some thumbnails or sketches for now and then commit to another 30% another day or week. Any progress IS progress

I've been bedridden for the last 10 months for medical reasons, and I'm still about 1000$ behind on being able to pay for my car and storage. I'm sorry to keep asking, but if you could send a couple dollars, it'd really help.

A small brooch featuring a bright fuchsia petal set into a gold-colored heart-shaped frame, like one would put a painting into were it at a larger scale.

A two panel comic. In panel one a kachina-masked individual with a skeletal prosthetic arm is saying "We have to get people under the dome-" before he's cut off. In the second panel everything has gone black and white and there's a massive bright red SNAP sound effect behind the masked person, a matching red crack having traveled up their mask.

A drawing of a stylized brown and pink manticore curled around a bush of pink garden roses. He's wearing several gold and diamond earrings in one ear, and has a tiny stylized gold crown over top of his head.

A character sheet for a bird person based on the rook bird. They are labeled "Rok Merla" and have dark blue feathers over most of their body, as well as cartoon-styled arms that are both wings and hands (the primary feathers forming the fingers). Their bald face and legs are a light grey-pink color, and they have a long, draconic or devil-like tail with a fork on the end that is the same color. Around the end of their tail is the mark of a stylized serpent or wyrm.

I only recently learned about Tales Of The Floating Vagabond, which is about people meeting in an extradimensional bar and going off adventuring.

There's a risk/reward system based on how drunk you are, so you want to always be a little tipsy.

I'm sliding into that role (nonsexual) thanks to being super old (late 30s) and still alive. Just don't call me Mommy or be weird about it.

Grassy loves you and cares about you. Do your best today.

I'm out of seizure meds and not having a great time. And I need physical therapy at end of week for the janked shoulder (which isn't even part of the goal). I truly could use a big spree of boosts on this.
