tWitch’s widow Allison Holker says she has a good reason for blabbing to the media about his alleged drug problem … she says she’s just trying to help others.
Allison defended herself Thursday amid a barrage of online attacks from her late husband’s friends and family, who are all pissed off about her recent media interviews and upcoming memoir … where she touches on his alleged drug use leading up to his suicide.
In a long social media post, Allison says … “I hope that by sharing our full story maybe I can help someone else who might see themselves or a loved one in Stephen.”
tWitch’s family and friends certainly don’t see it that way … ripping Allison for bringing up the sensitive topic in a cover story with PEOPLE magazine and adding passages from his private journal in her new book.
Basically, the family thinks this is all in poor taste and is a money grab by Allison … and they’re disputing her claims that she found a stash of drugs among tWitch’s belongings … saying he was no addict and she was the real drug abuser.
Allison address his family in her rant and says she’s just being an open book in hopes of helping people catch “red flags” about loved ones before it’s too late.
She also claims all the money she’s making from the book is going to a mental health foundation she started in his name.

Kobold Press has announced the release of the Tales of the Valiant Starter Set, a comprehensive introduction to tabletop roleplaying games. Designed for those new to the hobby, the set provides a structured and accessible way to learn the basics of roleplaying.
The starter set is built around the Tales of the Valiant universe, a high-fantasy setting that invites participants to explore a world of magic, heroism, and danger. Whether taking on the role of a legendary hero or guiding the story as the Game Master, players are encouraged to immerse themselves in tales of epic battles, daring escapes, and unexpected triumphs.
Rather than relying on the traditional 5th Edition Dungeons & Dragons system, the set utilizes Kobold Press’s Black Flag Roleplaying Rules.
This starter set emphasizes making roleplaying games approachable and intuitive, focusing on teaching fundamental skills through engaging and easy-to-follow adventures.
The official Dungeons & Dragons YouTube channel recently provided an in-depth look at the upcoming 2024 Monster Manual. The book, described as the final installment in the revised trio of core rulebooks, is set to feature significant updates and new content aimed at enhancing its role as both a gameplay resource and a tool for inspiration.
The designers shared that this new edition includes over 500 stat blocks, making it the largest Monster Manual in the history of Dungeons & Dragons. They explained that every monster has been updated in some way, with adjustments to mechanics, lore, and presentation. Additionally, the book introduces over 80 new creatures, expanding the range of options available to Dungeon Masters.
The artwork was highlighted as a major focus, with illustrations showcasing monsters actively engaging in their environments rather than appearing in isolated settings. The creative team emphasized that this approach aims to help Dungeon Masters visualize how creatures might interact within their campaigns, making it easier to integrate them into stories. Monsters like the rust monster, beholder, and ancient dragons were described as receiving fresh depictions that highlight their abilities and behaviors.
The team also pointed to mechanical improvements, particularly for legendary creatures and higher-level threats. Changes such as streamlined stat blocks and the incorporation of new abilities are intended to make encounters more dynamic while simplifying gameplay for Dungeon Masters. The inclusion of default loot tables and environmental details for each creature was mentioned as another way the book supports smoother preparation and play.
Classic monsters, including vampires and dragons, have been revisited to include new gameplay options. For example, the designers noted that ancient dragons now have spellcasting abilities directly integrated into their stat blocks, while vampires have gained additional tactical tools to reflect their elusive and dangerous nature. Lower-level creatures, such as goblins, have also been expanded with new variants to offer more diversity in encounters.
In terms of organization, the book has been designed to be more intuitive. Monsters are listed alphabetically by name rather than by type, a change aimed at making it easier for newer players to locate specific entries. Comprehensive indexes for sorting creatures by challenge rating, type, and environment remain, offering flexibility for those planning detailed adventures.
The narrative content has been reworked as well, with lore streamlined to provide Dungeon Masters with enough context to inspire creativity without overwhelming them with rigid backstories. The designers explained that many entries now include concise taglines summarizing a monster’s essence, serving as quick reference points to spark ideas.
Fans of The Traitors UK were left saying the same thing after Faithful Kas was banished at the round table tonight (January 8).
Kas, a 33-year-old doctor from Cambridge, had been suspected to be a Traitor by many contestants since the beginning of the series. Over the past few episodes, viewers have argued that he has been unfairly singled out by the cast. During Wednesday night’s round table, he continued to be in the firing line.
When it came down to voting who to banish, Kas received the most votes, becoming the fourth person banished. When he revealed to the room that he was a Faithful, emotions hit.

The Traitors UK: Fans say Kas was done ‘so dirty’
Following his exit, viewers rushed to social media to express how they felt about tonight’s episode.
“Poor Kas has had a rotten experience on the show. Literal bullying they should feel very bad about that,” one user wrote on X.
“Kas deserved better,” another person shared.
“Wowww they did Kas so dirty,” a third remarked.
“Kas has been done soooooo dirty, the disrespect is crazy,” a fourth viewer said.
“They did him so dirty. #TheTraitors,” a fourth person shared.
“This is an outrage. Justice for our boy Kas,” a fifth user wrote.

Remaining Traitors attempt to recruit
So far, only one Traitor, Armani, has been caught. However, two Traitors, Minah and Linda, remain in the game.
At the end of the episode, host Claudia Winkleman informed the remaining Traitors that they have the choice to murder another Faithful or offer one of them the choice to join them as a Traitor.
With so many Faithfuls left in the game, they debated on picking Fozia, Freddie, or Anna.
Viewers won’t find out who they chose to seduce until tomorrow night’s episode (January 9).

Renegade Game Studios has announced the release of The Crimson Veil, an expansion for the G.I. JOE Deck-Building Game. This new addition introduces players to an intense battle against Cobra’s infiltration efforts led by the Twins, Tomax and Xamot, and their elite Crimson Guard.
In The Crimson Veil, Cobra’s forces have taken a covert approach, infiltrating organizations around the world, including G.I. Joe itself. To counter this threat, the Joes have developed The General, a mobile battle station designed to provide critical support against Cobra’s plans. The expansion includes new player cards and missions, offering fresh challenges and strategic opportunities. Intel dice make their debut, adding a new layer to gameplay as players uncover and combat Cobra’s hidden forces.
This expansion also introduces powerful abilities through The General, represented by a giant card that players must bring online and maintain. With the addition of new leaders and story missions, The Crimson Veil aims to deepen the deck-building experience and heighten the stakes in the ongoing conflict.
Renegade Game Studios is offering a limited-time promotion where orders of The Crimson Veil include Bonus Box #7 at no additional cost. This bonus content will be automatically added to orders placed through the publisher’s website.
The Crimson Veil requires the G.I. JOE Deck-Building Core Game to play and is designed for one to four players, ages 14 and up, with an estimated playtime of 30 to 70 minutes.
After the Duchess of Sussex rang in 2025 by returning to Instagram, she shared this heartbreaking news.
Guy was a beagle whom she rescued from a shelter.
Alongside moving footage of her beloved dog, Meghan shared a heartfelt tribute to him.

Meghan Markle mourns her dog, Guy
On Tuesday, January 7, Meghan Markle took to Instagram to share this heartbreaking news.
“I have cried too many tears to count – the type of tears that make you get in the shower with the absurd hope that the running water on your face will somehow make you not feel them, or pretend they’re not there,” she wrote on the new account.
“But they are. And that’s okay too,” Meghan affirmed. “Thank you for so many years of unconditional love, my sweet Guy. You filled my life in ways you’ll never know. As ever, Meghan.”
As you can see, she shared even more than that while mourning Guy.
This beloved dog was part of Meghan’s life for many years. He was with her when she was filming Suits. He was there back when Harry proposed. And yes, Guy was around for the royal wedding.
The dearly departed dog also appears in the trailer for With Love, Meghan, her upcoming lifestyle and cooking series on Netflix.

“In 2015, I adopted a beagle from a dog rescue in Canada,” Meghan Markle reflected.
“He had been at a kill shelter in Kentucky and given a few days to live,” she revealed. “I swooped him up … and fell in love.”
Meghan confessed to having named him, writing: “They referred to him as ‘the little guy’ because he was so small and frail, so I named him ‘Guy’. And he was the best guy any girl could have asked for.”
“If you followed me on instagram back in the day, you saw a lot of him,” Meghan wrote to her longtime fans.
“He was with me at Suits, when I got engaged, (and then married), when I became a mom,” she listed. “He was with me for everything: the quiet, the chaos, the calm, the comfort.”
Naturally, words of sorrow and comfort came pouring in through the comments.

For some, this is only an excuse to hate her (like always)
However, not everyone was feeling entirely sympathetic. A particularly shady piece in The Daily Mail, one of the UK’s most notorious tabloids, included a jarring blend of empathy and condemnation.
“Noooooooo! Oh Meghan, my heart goes out to you. I did love you; I supported you,” the piece read at one point.
“But you made me angry with the revealing red red carpet dress, the wet look hair, the lack of elegance.” the piece spat. “Your new lost-grip-of-reality TV show has left me cold, as it brims with artifice and inauthenticity and controlling, never possible perfection.”
Just for the record, if you actively dislike someone because their hair looked “wet,” there is something wrong with you. Like, morally. The good news is that you can choose to become a better person! (It’s free!)
Despite her wet hair (whatever that means) and the audacity that she had to fall in love with Prince Harry, she’s just a person. A famous, beautiful woman who’s had a target on her for more than half a decade.
Our hearts go out to Meghan and her family at this time. They have Mamma Mia, another rescue beagle, and Pula, a rescue lab. Grief is never easy, but the mourning process is also a healing journey.

Kobold Press has launched the Monster Vault 2 Kickstarter campaign, offering a new collection of content for Tales of the Valiant and Dungeons & Dragons 5E campaigns. The campaign has already surpassed its $75,000 funding goal, with over $142,000 pledged by nearly 2,000 backers. The project will run until February 7.
Monster Vault 2 introduces over 300 new monsters, including various demons and undead. The book also introduces “monster bundles”, which are groups of related creatures (such as frost giants and winter wolves) designed to create balanced encounters for any tier of play.
Backers at the $29 level or higher will receive the Field Guide to Monster Harvesting, a companion volume detailing how to gather and use materials from creatures featured in Monster Vault 1 and 2. These materials can be used to enhance spells and provide benefits during gameplay. Examples include using void essence to increase a spell’s effectiveness or a unicorn horn to improve healing. Additional stretch goals will expand the guide with more materials and items.
Monster Vault 2 will be available in print, PDF, and virtual tabletop (VTT) formats. Both regular and limited editions are offered. Additionally, backers will receive an STL file to 3D print a Sporeborn monster from the original Monster Vault.
Stonemaier Games, the publisher behind the popular board game Wingspan, has announced the upcoming release of Finspan, a new title that shifts the focus from birds to fish. The game is set to launch on 2025, and aims to bring a fresh take on tableau-building gameplay.
In Finspan, players act as marine researchers, collecting fish from different ocean depths, hatching eggs, and forming schools. The game introduces three zones—the Sunlight Zone, Twilight Zone, and Midnight Zone—that house a variety of fish. Instead of traditional resources like food tokens, players use cards from their hand as a form of currency, which can later be recycled.
Designed by David Gordon and Michael O’Connell, with contributions from Wingspan designer Elizabeth Hargrave, Finspan incorporates familiar mechanics while introducing new elements to differentiate it. Hargrave commented on her involvement, noting that while she was not the lead designer, she contributed feedback during development to ensure the game aligned with the style of Wingspan while offering a unique experience.
The artwork, created by Ana María Martínez, Catalina Martínez, and Mesa Schumacher, features 125 fish cards with detailed illustrations and educational facts. Like Wingspan, Finspan supports one to five players and includes a solo mode designed by Automa Factory. Gameplay focuses on building a collection of fish, hatching eggs, and completing objectives to score points.
The rulebook for Finspan has been made available online, offering players an early look at the game’s mechanics. With its release date approaching, Finspan aims to appeal to fans of Wingspan and players interested in exploring a marine-themed strategy game.
