I'm moving over to the new place too.
Catch me at trentkusters.bsky.social 👋
Will still post/RT stuff here, mostly just things worthwhile signal boosting though. Will likely be far more active over there.

So excited for this. @tdcpresents, writer on Armello and author of all seven of Armello's classic novellas is running a Kickstarter campaign to bring them (and a brand new one!) into the real world via a premium hardcover omnibus.
