So today marks exactly 11 years since the first episode of #Tabletop with Wil Wheaton went up on YouTube. Sean Plott, Jenna Busch & the dearly missed Grant Imahara guested to play Small World. This show means so much to me. It led me to discovering more and more games, running open house games days, creating my little online alter ego; all of which in turn lead to me making so many new friends through play, adventures overseas, modding for Geek & Sundry (and a few times guesting), working with Syrinscape, connecting them with Critical Role and Zombie Orpheus (and then ZO to HyperRPG), designing and pitching my own game, making art with JP, the list goes on and on… All of these amazing things started because of this show. I know this wasn’t the first episode to be filmed, my dear departed friend Andrew Hackard was a part of that one. That we’ve lost both him & Grant Imahara in recent years still doesn’t feel right in my head. I could go on and on about all the wonderful adventures and folks I’ve met… and I will, at length, for all my life because they are all such wonderful humans and I’m lucky to call them friends. But I’ll leave it there for now. We got 4 amazing seasons of it. Wish it’d been 6 and a movie, but I’m grateful for all we got. Thank you to everyone who made it possible. Thank you to everyone on the journey since. PLAY MORE GAMES! https://www.instagram.com/p/CqaKj97yK9v/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Happy Birthday, Wil! For these special days, use either the face up or face down on a die, whichever is better. No curses today. https://www.instagram.com/p/CR6irqLL7H9/?utm_medium=tumblr

Today was a great day. Went to my sister’s for games with my niece.

Played Dragon’s Breath, Ice Cool 2, Tsuro, and Just One.

Watching my niece come up with clues; 6yrs old & some of her word association blew me away.

Took turns teaming up with us, we’d explain words she wasn’t sure of (all whispered so no one else knew), helped her spell her clues, she did all her own guessing & got most right.

I can’t express how proud I am of her, or how much joy it brings me watching her light up at playing something new, or breaking out one of her faves.

EVERYONE STOP AND LOOK AT THIS

Have you ever heard of Shaun Keenan? Probably not, but you have now.

Amazing art of dinosaurs in the wild American West? Yes please!

There’s so many he’s done and they’re all just the best aesthetic.

What I never knew I needed but a void has definitely been filled.

Go to his website and give some support!

It’s cold, too damn cold. Rain pours and wind howls outside. Inside, these two cute puppers snuggle between us with their favourite blankets. #Lockdown4 #RescueDogs (at Melbourne, Victoria, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CP490KwBxQg/?utm_medium=tumblr
