Lolth's Not Your Mom, But She's Definitely Disappointed in You Follow Ash Ely on social media for more tabletop mischief, hot takes, and behind-the-scenes RPGBOT energy. Want to do more than just listen? You can play in his games directly—Ash runs tables on StartPlaying.games where you can sign up, roll dice, and probably regret trusting that one suspicious NPC he voices just a little too well. Show Notes In this Spooktober installment, Tyler, Randall, and Ash descend into the Underdark to talk about everyone's favorite spider-themed frenemies: the drow. But don't expect a simple “they're all evil” hot take—this conversation is about how to use drow effectively and responsibly at the table. Highlights include: History lesson (with bite): From Scottish folklore to Gygax's caverns, the word “drow” has been through some things. The big problem: Why “evil by biology” is lazy design and a headache for modern tables. The fix: Treat drow as cultures, factions, and ideologies rather than one-note villains. Tactics and terror: How to make them scary with ambushes, traps, lair design, and coordinated squads instead of tired stereotypes. DM toolbox: Drow of the Underdark (3.5e) for rich lore and mechanical bits. Keith Ammann's The Monsters Know What They're Doing and MOAR for tactical framing. The RPGBOT Masterclass on How to Defend Your Lair for designing unforgettable encounters. Adventure seeds: Trade cartels, perpetual-darkness devices, and drow coup-plots that give your players moral choices beyond “roll initiative.” RPGBOT.Podcast Episodes How to Defend Your Lair with Keith Ammann – RPGBOT.Masterclass S2E95 How to Defend Your Lair with Keith Ammann – RPGBOT.Masterclass S2E95 Other Stuff Drow of the Underdark (3.5) (affiliate link) MOAR The Monsters Know What They're Doing (affiliate link) The Monsters Know What They're Doing (affiliate link) Key Takeaways Scary ≠ racist: Make drow terrifying by leaning on culture, politics, and goals—not skin color or species.

Imaginez : on vous sert deux verres de vin. Même robe, même nez, même texture. L'un coûte 9 euros. L'autre, 89. Devinez lequel vous préférez ? Spoiler : vous préférez le deuxième. Pas parce qu'il est meilleur… mais parce qu'il est plus cher ! Et que votre cerveau adore se faire avoir. Déjà, commençons par ce que l'on appelle le biais de prix, ou quand le cerveau boit avec le portefeuille. En 2008, des chercheurs de Stanford et Caltech ont scanné le cerveau de 20 personnes pendant qu'elles goûtaient le même vin – sauf qu'on leur faisait croire que certains coûtaient 5 dollars, d'autres 45 dollars. Résultat ? Les zones du plaisir s'activaient davantage pour les vins prétendument plus chers, même s'il s'agissait exactement du même flacon. Moralité : ce n'est pas votre palais qui juge, mais bien votre banquier imaginaire.Dans ce nouvel épisode de Parlons Vin, la journaliste Alicia Dorey vous parle d'illusions sensorielles, de biais cognitifs et de cette petite voix intérieure qui vous pousse à aimer ce que vous avez payé trop cher.Et n'oubliez pas : parlons peu mais Parlons Vin !Vous pouvez écouter cet épisode sur Figaro Radio, le site du Figaro et sur toutes les plateformes d'écoutes.Chronique et rédaction : Alicia DoreyMontage : Antoine Lion-RantyPrise de son : François DuvalProduction exécutive : Aude Sérès, rédactrice en chef, pôle audio Le FigaroCoordination de production : Pôle audio Le FigaroCommunication : Réseaux sociaux Le FigaroVisuel & habillage : Studio design Le FigaroHébergé par Ausha.

It's not just hair. Did you know, the way you care for your hair is the way you care for yourself. For many Black women, our hair is more than just hair—it's a reflection of identity, culture, and self-love. In this powerful episode, hosts Alechia and Dani sit down with Adria Marshall, CEO and founder of the clean haircare brand EcoSlay, to unpack the complex relationship Black women have with their hair and how learning to love and nurture it can transform the way we see ourselves. Adria shares her journey of creating EcoSlay and why using products that are safe, effective, and made with intention matters. She opens up about the emotional weight hair can carry, from societal pressures to personal insecurities, and how changing the way we talk to ourselves—and our hair—can heal more than just our strands. Alechia and Dani also reveal their own experiences with natural hair, including the struggles, setbacks, and the patience it takes to embrace every stage of the journey. Together, they dive deep into how our inner dialogue often sabotages our self-confidence, and why it's time to hype ourselves up with the same energy we give to our friends. ✨ You'll Learn:
Send me a Text Message!In Luke 8, Jesus tells a story that in many ways sums up James 3. He shares a parable about seeds and soils and a 100 fold return in the harvest. But really it's all about words, and hearts, and a great return on investment in the lives of peole. It's about having the kind of heart that overflows with life on the people around us. So I can't help but ask the question, what is the texture of a good heart? That's wht this episode is all about.

Light profoundly impacts our neurological and biological systems through its connection to our evolutionary history. Our brains are fundamentally programmed to respond to moving, dynamic light sources - which is why we're instinctively transfixed by a candle flame. Artificial light, by contrast, has only existed for 180 years, which is essentially nothing in evolutionary time. This means static white lights do little to support our relaxation or psychological connectivity. We speak with Frankie Boyle, light artist extraordinaire who fuses physics, psychology, neuroscience and art.Frankie's work is beautiful, a manifestation of the fusion of biophilia and creativity. I love the gorgeous fluidity, the colours, the dance of light and dark, for me experiencing her installations even through the screen feels like you are walking into a song.As Frankie explains, humans have been interacting with light for 4 billion years, primarily through natural sources like sunlight and fire. From a neurological perspective, light triggers specific responses in our nervous system that are deeply rooted in survival mechanisms. Our brains are programmed to detect movement because it signals potential hunting opportunities or threats. Different colours and light intensities activate different neurological responses - for instance, vibrant blues are energising and motivating, while sunset tones with yellows and oranges signal relaxation and the end of the day. These light interactions influence our brain's energy allocation. If we design lighting intentionally, we can help encourage the neural resources of anyone experiencing the space to focus on specific tasks, ultimately improving their cognitive performance and emotional well-being.Some key take-awaysThere are many highlights from our conversation, but here are some key pointers she shares with us. In designing spaces with light, prioritise mimicking natural light patterns by using dynamic, moving sources that change throughout the day, avoiding static, bright white overhead lighting. Focus on colour and intensity, utilizing blue tones for energizing spaces and warm yellows and oranges for relaxation, always matching light colours to the intended mood and function of the environment. The goal is to create lighting that reflects our natural circadian rhythms and supports our biological needs.Texture, movement, and sensory experience are crucial in light design. Integrate materials that interact beautifully with light, like wool, and create subtle, gentle light movements that highlight natural surfaces and create immersive experiences. Approach light design as a collaborative and experimental process, working with experts from different disciplines and being open to unexpected ideas. Remember that light is not just functional, but a powerful tool for storytelling, evoking emotions, and creating spaces that connect deeply with our psychological and biological responses. Frankie transforms light from a simple functional element into a profound medium of emotional and psychological connection. When asked how she would paint the world with a magic brush of biophilia, Boyle's vision was wonderfully radical: a world without white walls and straight lines, replaced instead by spaces that invite play, exploration, and connection - environments with trees to climb, slides to descend, and cocoon-like spaces that nurture our innate need for sensory engagement.As our conversation reveals, the future of design lies not in rigid structures and static spaces, but in dynamic, playful experiences that honour our biological heritage. Frankie's approach challenges us to break free from conventional thinking, to embrace creativity, and to understand that truly innovative design speaks to our deepest neurological rhythms.

Interview with Janine Jarman:Janine Jarman is a nationally renowned celebrity hair stylist and the founder of Hairroin Salon, the home of Hollywood's best-tressed. Born and raised in Huntington Beach, CA, Jarman has been “hair-obsessed” for as long as she can remember. At the age of 15 she teamed up with her best friend to offer hair and makeup services to her party-bound classmates. Jarman then moved on to beauty school, and after graduating, she immediately began shooting for the stars. Jarman steadily built a loyal client base until she was bit by the entrepreneurial bug in 2005. She purchased a failing salon and immediately re-branded and re-opened it as Hairroin Salon. Hairroin instantly became Tinseltown's newest obsession, garnering Hollywood clientele including Florence Welch, Tommy Lee, Kylie Minogue, Danica Patrick, and Fergie. For many years Jarman was the key stylist and official hairdresser for the world's most successful female pop group, The Pussycat Dolls. Jarman was the creator of their signature look, which led to work with celebrities such as Christina Applegate, Britney Spears, Lil' Kim, and Carmen Electra. Jarman has also been the principal hairstylist for television shows including ”Beauty and the Geek,” “The Pussycat Dolls Present: The Search for The Next Doll,” endless commercial spots, and live shows like the MTV Movie Awards. In 2010 she burst into the national spotlight as a finalist on the third season of Bravo's hit show “Shear Genius.” Jarman instantly became a favorite among the judges and was voted Fan Favorite of her season, standing out for her fearless hair creations, free spirit, and endless amounts of energy.Having naturally curly hair herself, she leaned into using perms to solve texture issues her clients were facing – but felt the need to reimagine the traditional perm process, odor and environmental impact. This led her to Italy where she conjured up Curl Cult, delivering a simpler, healthier, more sustainable texturizing treatment with at-home curl support products even natural curls will love.Links:https://www.curlcult.com/https://www.instagram.com/curlcult/https://www.instagram.com/janinejarman/ https://www.instagram.com/hairroinsalon/ https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/volume-up-by-the-tease/id1539183805?i=1000632325792Rate The Look:Ariana Madix Danielle BrooksLayla Leanne TaylorNews from TheTease.com:https://www.thetease.com/everything-you-need-to-know-about-entering-the-2025-north-american-trendvision-awards/ https://www.thetease.com/pink-hair-is-everywhere-again-bianca-hillier-explains-her-take-on-the-trend/ More from TheTease.com:Instagram:
Diane Kappa is a lifelong artist and the daughter of an artist. After founding her art licensing business nearly 20 years ago, she spent many years designing to creative briefs—a challenge she still enjoys for its problem-solving aspects. But in recent years, her focus has shifted toward more personal exploration, a journey that has deepened her creative practice and enriched her commercial design work.Linoleum block printing has become her most personal and expressive medium. Drawn to its tactile process, bold shapes, and the meditative rhythm of carving by hand, Diane often combines her hand-carved prints with stitching and layered details. Her work explores the interplay of texture, pattern, and process—three themes that guided her recent artist residency. Texture is revealed through physical and visual layers; Pattern draws inspiration from sources like tattered wallpaper and vintage textiles; and Process honors the thoughtful, hands-on journey behind each piece.Travel continues to inspire her work. Having lived in Budapest for four years, she regularly attends creative retreats in India, France, Mexico, and across the U.S.—experiences that provide time to reset, refocus, and reconnect with what matters most in her art.A passionate teacher, Diane offers block printing classes from her studio, nurturing creative community and helping others reconnect with their artistic voice.Website: https://www.dianekappa.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/dianekappa/Retreat: https://www.artistsrising.net/diane-kappa-2026Thank You to Our Sponsors: Jet Creative and UrbanStems!· Jet Creative: A women-owned marketing firm committed to community and empowerment.

We'd love to hear from you. Send us a text! The Naked Texture Artist is a podcast where VFX/animation veterans have deep and honest conversations about their challenges and growth as working artists. It is very exciting to find people who think deep and hard thoughts about the work we do and the industry we work in. We are not short on people, who can teach us how to carry out the work, but the bigger questions about the VFX industry and our role in it, are harder to answer. Daniel Harkness, in addition to his work as a compositor and motion designer, writes his excellent observations on LinkedIn. I think for all of us, this period, in the industries of VFX, animation and games, has been a grim reminder that we are living in a house of cards. Many, if not all, artists have had to have some serious reflection on their career, and what their future will look like. Daniel's excellent writing is very useful to help understand the market forces that underpin our work, as well as the value each of us have in terms of dollars and cents. I hope getting to know Daniel's writing can be as instructive and helpful for you too, as it has been for me.

Contemporary art is a feast for the senses. But have we reduced art to vision? And what does the hand do, now that we have machines and automated ways of making, editing and showing images? And what are images?You wouldn't leave the shop without paying for your latte, right?Buy us a latte ;-)This episode is the second audio/video essay of the season. It will take you on a trip to a sensory shift across times, blurring the boundaries between line, image, wall, surface, paper, and machines. Where the hand is, what it does and how it is re-articulated by automation is promising and exciting if we let it. If you enjoyed this episode, and if you enjoy reading, Joana's Substack might be for you.I was invited to participate in a conversation on the occasion of the launch of Trajectories, Variations on a Gesture a book which is almost a sculpture or an exhibition in itself, containing 10 drawings made at Massana school of crafts (Barcelona) by Edouard Cabay. The director of the school, Xavi Capmany invited Cabay, an experimental architect and artist to bring his algorithmic practice at the heart of a school teaching manual crafts in order to create a dialogue between the different uses of the hand, of patterns, of the eye, the brain, muscle and memory.

The Channel: A Podcast from the International Institute for Asian Studies (IIAS)
This episode features Aarti Kawlra, Academic Director of the Humanities Across Borders program at IIAS, hosting discussion about indigo with three colleagues, scholars, and educators. Jody Benjamin is an Associate Professor of History at Howard University. His recent book is The Texture of Change: Dress, Self-Fashioning and History in Western Africa, 1700-1850 (Ohio University Press, New African History Series, 2024), which explores questions of state-making, social hierarchy, and self-making across parts of Mali, Senegal, and Guinea through the lens of textiles and dress in a context shaped by an emergent global capitalism, slavery, and colonialism. Min-Chin Chiang is an Associate Professor and the Chairperson of the Graduate Institute of Architecture and Cultural Heritage in Taipei National University of the Arts. Her work focuses on heritage craft, heritage education, and heritage dynamics in relation to community and colonialism. Finally, Jocelyne Vokouma is a researcher in the Department of Socioeconomics and Development Anthropology at the Institute of Social Studies (Institut des Sciences des Sociétés / INSS-CNRST) in Burkina Faso, where she specializes in the aesthetics of indigo in clothing.Indigo occupies a haloed place as a color, a craft, and a hi(story) of global interactions. Viewed largely as a dye-yielding plant with a specific chemistry and exchange value as a commodity, in this podcast, the guests focus on indigo as a tool for African and Asian self-consciousness. Brought to you ahead of the Africa-Asia ConFest to be held next month (June 2025) in Dakar, this episode centers on indigo as a livelihood practice and techno-cultural knowhow, taking two specific examples, namely, indigo in Taiwan and indigo in Burkina Faso.

The Texture of Change: Dress, Self-Fashioning, and History in Western Africa, 1700 – 1850 (Ohio UP, 2024) examines historical change across a broad region of western Africa—from Saint Louis, Senegal, to Freetown, Sierra Leone—through the development of textile commerce, consumption, and dress. Indigo-dyed and printed cotton, wool, linen, and silk cloths constituted major trade items that linked African producers and consumers to exchange networks that were both regional and global. While much of the historiography of commerce in Africa in the eighteenth century has focused on the Atlantic slave trade and its impact, this study follows the global cloth trade to account for the broad extent and multiple modes of western Africa's engagement with Europe, Asia, and the Americas. Jody Benjamin analyzes a range of archival, visual, oral, and material sources drawn from three continents to illuminate entanglements between local textile industries and global commerce and between the politics of Islamic reform and encroaching European colonial power. The study highlights the roles of a diverse range of historical actors mentioned only glancingly in core-periphery or Atlantic-centered framings: women indigo dyers, maroon cotton farmers, petty traveling merchants, caravan guides, and African Diaspora settlers. It argues that their combined choices within a set of ecological, political, and economic constraints structured networks connecting the Atlantic and Indian Ocean perimeters. Jody Benjamin is a social and cultural historian of western Africa with expertise in the period between 1650 and 1850. His research is informed by a methodological concern to center the diverse experiences and perspectives of Africans in ways that transcend the limitations of the colonial archive. In broad terms, Prof. Benjamin's scholarship interrogates the multiple connections between west African, African diaspora and global histories through the lens of material culture, technology, labor, gender and race to reshape how historians think about western Africa's role in the history of global capitalism and its connections to contemporary questions of global inequality. Dr. Benjamin's work has been supported by the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), the University of California Regents, University of California Humanities Research Initiative (UCHRI), the Hellman Fellows Fund, and the John Carter Brown Library at Brown University. From 2022-2023, he was the Principal Investigator for a Mellon Sawyer Seminar, “Unarchiving Blackness,” exploring archival practices in African and African Diaspora Studies. Prior to Howard University, Dr. Benjamin taught at the University of California, Riverside. You can learn more about his work here.

We discover who we are by doing it. We learn who we are in practice, not in theory. The only way to fully know if you can do it, is to do the thing. Take action. Fail sometimes. Then keep going. The explore-exploit dilemma. Do we keep on the same path and stick to what we know works or do we go out into the unknown? Do we invest in R&D with no guarantee that it will pay off? This reminds me of Scott Galloway on episode #578, In order to do anything of significance in your life, you must take an uncomfortable risk.” The Hard is what makes it good. From Jimmy Dugan (Tom Hanks) in A League of Their Own. The HARD stuff adds texture to time. The effort needed is a source of meaning. Similar to the Ikea paradox. There is more meaning in the piece of furniture if you assemble it. We shouldn't run away from the hard things (like Dottie Hinson was doing in A League of Their Own)> We should run towards them. The effort is where find a source of meaning. Opened with gratitude for him helping me with my first book, Welcome to Management. The beginnings of chapters/stories. What's most important and what's interesting? Use the best story you have. The beginning is super important. Time with Friction - “I don't want it to be easier.” Challenge and complexity make it more meaningful. It's less meaningful if it's not challenging. Effort is a source of meaning. The Ikea Effect. A piece of furniture is worth more to you if you put it together. Why do you keep pushing your limits? What am I getting out of this? Is there some intrinsic pleasure? We are wired to explore, push our limits We are also wired to be lazy, to rest in between hunts. Dichotomy there. Some are nomadic and some settle. It's useful to have both. Alex and his wife take their daughters with them on adventures. They earn a feeling like, “I can do anything.” Adding voluntary hardship to a child's life can be helpful. If it's a foregone conclusion, it's not interesting. This is why people love live sports. We don't know how it's going to end. Uncertainty makes it interesting. The same is true for life. Uncertainty - We're willing to pay a lot to not know the ending. The arc is important. “Bold beginning of uncertain outcomes.” Alex was shy and didn't introduce himself to girls. “I would have had a better time if I wasn't scared to ask someone out.” My first job getting rejected 60 times a day. Useful. His job as a newspaper intern having to go to people's houses after their family member died in a car accident and talk with them. Made everything else seem easier. Quote to open the book: “To say that we should not change wines is heresy; the tongue becomes saturated, and after the third glass even the best bottle yields but an obtuse sensation.” – Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin Waffles – They are great. But if you have them every day, you lose the magic. A metaphor for life. Life/Career Advice: Be optimistic in the face of uncertainty. Have both the exploring and exploiting mindset. Explore widely. We discover who we are by doing it. Have to do the thing.
