Hello Podwalkers,
This week Taya, Alex and returning guest Reinhardt are covering a melthos topic again, this time talking about how some of the real world game mechanics of Magic exist in the fictional universe and how the citizens of that universe may or may not understand them or even be aware of them!
Again we would like to state that Black Lives Matter (with a link to where you can offer support both monetary and not).
Goblin Lore is also proud to have partnered with Grinding Coffee Co, a Black-, LGBT+ affiliated and owned, coffee business that is aimed at providing coffee to gamers. You can read more about their mission here. You can use our partner code for discounted coffee!
We also finally have a Linktree with all of our discounts/resources including the fact that Hobbes is now a Brand Amabassador for Quiver.

As promised, we plan to keep these Mental Health links available moving forward too. For general Mental Health the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) has great resources for people struggling with mental health concerns as well as their families. We also want to draw attention to this article on stigma from NAMI’s site.
