Howdy bluskies, new and older! I'm Joshua/Chase (either is fine), a scientist by day and a TTRPG hobbyist by dinner!

The one thing you should know about me is:
I live for other lives.

While I don't make much myself, I'll share with you what I and others do in science, TTRPGs, and art! 🩵

I know there's a lot of steals and deals right now, but don't forget Heart of Glass is ending soon! You can save on a lot of my books in the add-ons. And the bundle tier is 135 bucks worth of books for $100, that's basically a free book!

The most charming thing I experienced alongside Cassi at PAX U was people whose faces lit up upon seeing us.

We are mostly isolated in the Midwest, only conversing with folks online. So to run into y'all in person and have such a positive experience really warms and stokes the heart. 🩵

Thank y'all

I really hate asking this, esp before the holiday, but I’m having an emergency. My filling broke and I have a painful abscess that needs immediate care. I don’t have dental insurance and could really use a hand. I’m so sorry to ask. I can barely eat or sleep. #mutualaid

BOUNDLESS SPACE: Not too exciting today, but you've got to put the character sheet together at some point.

Since this is a very cyberpunk/Ghost in the Shell future setting, we're linking the last few hit points to your character's talents and abilities--they can be hacked!

If you're looking for more rpg-related YouTube channels that aren't actual plays, check out Weird Place. They remind me of PBS's Idea Channel from almost 10 years ago. Very relaxing, informative watches.

Would love recommendations for TTRPGs, modules, hacks etc. that explore femininity, misogyny, and gender roles through the lens of horror.

Think ‘Bluebeard’s Bride’ as a great example of the kind of thing I’m after.

Also open to recs from other media (books, films, etc.)

I’m researching 🤓

Thank you folks that took a quick moment out of their very hectic and packed (and fun!) weekend to assist me in something both small and big!

You are all appreciated and I wish you all safe travels!
Hey there creators, designers, players and fans at PAX U. I need your help, if you spot me without Cassi, pull me aside to say hi.

Also don't tell Cassi.
