Just your average 40-something Gen-Xer, creative director, proud husband and parent of girl dragons, board gamer (and game designer, someday). Neurodivergent and still discovering what that means for me.
I am staunchly pro-abortion, anti-fascist, and anti-nationalist. Black Lives Matter and Black voices must be amplified. Trans rights are human rights. Hellsite escapee. He/him

I love creating fantasy flowers like this bejewelled iris with an amethyst embedded in its petals.

After 1 white parent complained about "controversial ideas" from Nat'l Book Award finalist Derrick Barnes speaking at three Alabama elementary schools as part of Black History Month in February—Barnes' lectures were cancelled😳
It was never about CRT. It was never about protecting our children. It was always about advancing white supremacy.
Now, hundreds of Black & white children will be deprived meaningful education, because of the whims of 1 white racist parent. smh
Award-winning children's book author Derrick Barnes was scheduled to visit three schools in Alabama during Black History Month. But just before Barnes' planned appearances in February, the invitation to Hoover and Alabaster City Schools was abruptly canceled.
Picked up the board game, Everdell by Starling Games, this weekend on recommendation of the fine folks at Dungeons & Donuts. Really enjoyed it. A nice worker placement & card tableau game which is easy enough to jump in but complex enough to strategise and master.
