Just a lil’ Halloween guy...

#illustration #Halloween #TrickRTreat #sam #art

Illustration of Sam from the movie Trick ‘r Treat. A little figure with a large head covered in a burlap bag, with two black button eyes and a stitched mouth. He wears an orange onesie with yellow patches, and in one hand holds a lumpy burlap bag behind his back, and in the other hand an orange jack o’ lantern lollipop with a bite taken out of it.

Here’s @quinnmajeski.bsky.social running Absurdia for the @2dollarcreature.bsky.social crew, when we played a plant-obsessed radio host, an elderly butch who can talk to machines, and a creepy void child whose best friends is a cockroach. Fun for the whole family!

With the help of ATLAS and a fellow former agent, our hunters begin to understand just how dangerous every moment that Gator remains in Indrid's clutches really is...but that doesn't mean everyone is being serious.

It has always been our ethos to stand against racism, fascism, and colonialism, and we’re not stopping now. As artists, radical imagination is our tool for carving better worlds into existence — worlds where everyone can live in prosperity and dignity.

Hope is a weapon. Let’s wield it together.

Question for the GMs, writers, and worldbuilders out there;

What do you consider your greatest piece of work / moment as a GM or writer?

You have permission to toot your own horn y'all. Go wild.

I just used the phrase “ashcan Actual Play” with @jdragsky.bsky.social and I don’t know what it would even be if it existed.

(“Ashcan” being the term for a TTRPG that is at a playable but not yet wholly completed stage)

I can't tell if it's a good idea or not to keep working on this while being a little sick.

It *might* be making it better?

It's *definitely* making it weirder.
