Twitter may die so I made a mastodon account where I am hoping to integrate all of my aspects - geeky dork who plays mtg and rpgs + academic/uni student + urban planning + I dunno, me. Is having 1 account for everything even possible? Anyway: @gemofhope@mendeddrum.org

I'm on uni holidays and so far I've been re-reading the Tower and the Hive - Anne McCaffery books again, playing Dnd with my son both as faeries from the Feywild, and tinkering endlessly with my Galea deck. It's been gorgeous.

My son still has school until later in December so this part of my uni holidays I actually get time to myself while my son is still at school. I get to have actual fun! Oh I've been replaying Pillars of Eternity too, highly recommend it for lovers of Baldurs Gate type RPGs

Want to know what to play on Day 1 of #MTGBRO on Arena? We've got you, fam. Hear our thoughts from the prerelease, an update to the Magic story, and which cards are over-performing. 🦾
Listen anywhere or watch via the l1nk in this 🧵:
Folks changing to #mastodon ! There's a thing you can use to import your followers and following from twitter into your mastodon account. Here's the link: debirdify.actnow.link what it does is search all your following/followers profiles for their mastodon address and lists it
The moral of this is that you should absolutely put your mastodon account in your Twitter profile, e.g. @gemofhope@mendeddrum.org - like that, and then your people can find you!

Something exciting for me this year is I've been learning to be a DM for #dnd. I'd played D&D since 1999 but for some reason didn't think I could be a DM, it seemed like a magical genius powerful wizard type of role that I was too 'dumb' for. Turns out, I'm good at it.
I love helping people explore characters/adventures and tell stories in their own way. It's hard work that uses my brain, but GOOD work, intensely rewarding. I scribble notes of things my players mention in passsing and then embed that into the next session.

Proof of my endless love of Galea as my commander. She's just so cool! She's an elf, she's a knight, in 'good guy' colours of WUG. Her helm has antlers! She kindles HOPE, for goodness sake! 💙

I recently (as in this year) made some new friends who play EDH so I've gotten into the format because apparently if you play Commander with people who are awesome it's actually fun?? Who would have thought?!

So for the past ummm maybe 5 months or so? I have been OBSESSED with Galea, Kindler of Hope. I mean proper obsessed, I have her playmat, deckbox, card sleeves, and even made a little lego figurine of her too.
