I use affiliate links on this blog when possible. Affiliate links include Amazon, Bookshop, Abebooks; and less frequently Powell's and DriveThruRPG. I may earn a small commission if you click through and make purchases.

I run ads on this site to help pay the bills and keep the lights on, including Google, Amazon, and, a scrappy indie network, ComicAd. If you use an ad blocker, consider becoming an ongoing supporter on Patreon, Bandcamp, or Ko-Fi to chip in and continue guilt free.

Some images on this site are created using AI/ML generators (MidJourney and Dall-E) when posts otherwise wouldn't have pictures or they seem fun to me to add.
