Can also recommend this game, it's a cute and fun coop that can get kinda frantic at times. The kids love playing it with us

Nice! Those color charts are great, I might print them out so I can try to match the colors as I mix inks and powder.
I've got plenty of gold powder and something called copper but is actually more brown. I'll try with those, see what turns out

Interesting idea, never done this before, always interested in learning. Just watched a quick video on using blanks, you can get some pretty cool effects! Unfortunately I don't have access to blank inserts now, I suppose those could go on my wishlist ha..

Yeah but according to all the stuff I've read on various sites, each house has two colors
Gryffindor: gold and red Hufflepuff: black and yellow Slytherin: silver and green Ravenclaw: blue and bronze
First post here as an r/dicemaking refugee, glad this place has a similar community! So I've got a friend who is both a standard nerd and is also deep into Harry Potter. I've had the idea to make them a set of four d20's, each with coloring and patterns appropriate to the Hogwarts Houses, and maybe make a wooden/3d printed stand to display them on. The biggest problem I'm currently facing is how the heck to get a bronze color/effect for Ravenclaw out of ink and mica powder, but I'm also open to any other generic style ideas. Thanks!

I'm actually very proud if this one. I made a Kenku warlock for a one shot whose background was that he had previously been an actor in a traveling troupe that performed "The Great Wars of the Astral Plane." Being a Kenku, he only spoke in quotes from the play, which he mimicked perfectly.
For the entire night, I only communicated via Star Wars soundboard. It was glorious.
His name? Ujheddye the Fourth. "I am Uhjeddye (a jedi)...like my father before me."

I love this app. It's got like 3 dozen different games, all of which you can scale in difficulty, and works great offline. It is my go to bathroom diversion.

Ori and the Will of the Wisps has some great emotional moments that are complemented by a fantastic soundtrack. Learning about Shriek's backstory after being hunted by her the entire game was just too much.

When accepting a favor would impose a financial burden, I usually push back twice and then relent. (1) "Are you sure, I can absolutely get this?" (2)"It's really not a problem, I don't mind paying." If they're still insisting at this point, I'll pack down, especially if it's obvious they're trying to do a nice thing.
I used to be more reluctant to accept that sort of help from folks, but there's a quote from the Thomas Covenant series that goes something like "in accepting the gift, one honors the giver." It's kinda stuck with me since I read it; let people give you gifts, it makes them feel good. Graciously accept, and think about how to pay it forward/back.
