Did my civic duty and voted in the state elections, today. My voting station was in the primary school I attended as a boy. At recess I used to sit among the roots of this old tree, and stare through the leaves waving in the wind, waiting for something---something!

Today's shadow puppet: a civet cat, one of the neighbourhood loverboys whose mating calls sound at midnight like the keen of a restless ghost. (Designed by @chincarok.bsky.social , for her upcoming art exhibition in September!) #localfauna

Really, *really* dislike what I'm seeing of the new Dark Sun. OG Dark Sun had some seriously cool, *very relevant* themes (life under tyranny, life after genocide, life after ecocide) + bondage glam rock Jojo-pose aura-farming. This new stuff is busy-gore + generic metal + cyberpunk (???) Urgh.

Made this shadow puppet today. An angry mynah comes alive! (This is for @chincarok.bsky.social 's exhibition in September.)

So, I got into tabletop games by hanging out at a friend's game shop. (I'd met him while clubbing.) This was a fairly typical FLGS. 40K, Friday Night Magic, a coupla V:TM tables. The core group of dudes where old uni mates. These were true-blue grognards. They used to play Napoleonics. 1/

Also: You folks trying to explain the textureless "always evil pig orc" via pointing out that TTRPGs come from wargames--- I don't get why this explains anything. Tabletop wargamers *fucking love* texture. These are the guys who make up silly backstories for each 28mm figure they have!

What's the deal with games needing monsters you can kill with no remorse? I keep seeing TTRPGs touting this in their marketing ... There was Obojima, a while back; now Deathbringer with its pig-faced orcs. I genuinely don't get this! What desire is being served here---and whose? 1/
