If this pops up during your scroll time, it’s because the algorithm knows you like TTRPGs…so what if you came to my Daggerheart charity stream tonight at 5:30 PT? 👉🏼👈🏼 We’re raising funds for Medical Aid for Palestinians

It's very good, but also sad and heartbreaking.

If you don't have time to play the whole thing, may I suggest Josh Strife Hayes's video on it? He covers the whole thing start to finish. It's like, 3 hours, but that's a lot less time than actually playing through it all.

That...is an excellent question. I don't know that I have a good answer, which makes me rethink my dislike of these in the first place.

Still not for me in my decks, but...

I’m FreckleSketches. I’m a freelance fantasy cartographer, who occasionally dabbles in writing, and character art.

A map in sepia of the fantasy city of Dawnsharbour, which is spread across a river delta.

A map of The North from Game of Thrones, featuring the direwolves of house Stark as corner embellishments.

A bookmark atop a book, surrounded by dice. There is a colorful map highlighting the city of Palanthas from the Dragonlance series.

FYI for twitch streamers: You can disable the annoying bird promotion on your channel by navigating to Creator Dashboard->View Rewards->Rewards

Screenshot from my creator dashboard on twitch. Viewer Rewards -> Rewards has been selected in the left menu. In the center there is an Open Reward Campaign for Duolingo that says "Sub for 3 months for FREE Super Duolingo" The toggle labeled "Enabled" has been toggled off.

Look I've been holding off from months asking this on Bluesky because of my pride but I need help.

My car needs brakes, my rent is past due and my step kid needs shoes.

I hate having to ask this

And I'm live, finishing up my #CivilizationVII game as Jose Rizal!

You know, the one I did well on my first start. Definitely not one that got restarted twice.

Nope.

See you in chat!

Ohhh. Yeah, I've done that.

It isn't, it's way too old for Arena. That was from my early magic days, the Visions set. It was before they even started showing rarity in the set symbols.

In about an hour, join me for the (hopeful) conclusion of my playthrough as Jose Rizal in #CivilizationVII!

Fingers crossed....
