Seeing as you're making dice that are fighting the current situation in the USA right now, I think this would be up your alley. https://stgiga.github.io/gigaware/TarouijaD120files.zip would be up your alley. It is a 3D model with OpenSCAD for tweaks, of a d120 but instead of the numbers 1-120, it has extended Tarot and extended Ouija as its symbols, via Unicode shenanigans, following this mapping https://www.reddit.com/r/d120Lists/comments/17mr2uv/d120_tarot_and_spirit_board/

The first section of characters is the contents of the Playing Cards block in Unicode, minus Red Joker (white is kept) and Playing Card Back. So that means the 52 cards (jokers included) in an English/American deck of playing cards, plus Tarot's Knight cards, so 56 cards (and these are basically a graphical suit with the value above it, in a 12pt cell), plus the 22 cards in the Major Arcana, with "Fool" as XXII as is done on some decks. That section is rendered as a 12pt card with Roman numerals I through XXII with IX and XI having disambiguation dots. The naming I used for the cards is the alias names Unicode gives the cards. So none of the "The Hanged Man" or the generic numbered-only names that Unicode gives as their official codepoint names. After that is Ouija's 0-9 and uppercase A-Z, using Unicode's Mathematical Monospaced characters (Courier) from Mathematical Alphanumeric Symbols block, in order to fit the 1800s playbill font commonly seen on Ouija boards, also 12pt. Now the next ones are the interesting ones. To represent Yes and No, I used the Thumbs-Up and Thumbs-Down emoji respectively, and the real interesting part is what I did for Hello and Goodbye. For those, I used two characters from the Miscellaneous Technical block, namely the Enter Symbol and the Escape Symbol, both seen on old Mac keyboards. The first one is a diamond with an arrow pointing inwards, and the second one is a circle with an arrow pointing outwards. The metaphor here is that "Hello" is entering a conversation, and "Goodbye" is leaving one, obviously with a spirit. And all this fills ALL 120 slots on a d120, with no empty or duplicate entries. A unique glyph for each side. The only fonts usable for this by the way are Unifont Smooth (bundled) or UnifontEX. No other font, even Unifont itself, has all the characters together, due to the fact that Hello and Goodbye symbols are in Plane 0, meanwhile the rest of the characters are in Plane 1 AND even include emoji, never mind that some fonts do not support the Major Arcana part of the Playing Cards block. So basically, you're stuck with these two forks of GNU Unifont, but UnifontEX is pixel and so is not exactly a fitting theme unless you're a hacker like I am. Plus, by a bout of sheer chance, ALL the characters after vectorization turned out fine (though White Joker's J is too skeletal in the loop), something that related characters (some of the other stuff in the same block as the thumbs up and thumbs down emoji didn't vectorize well) have trouble with. I was very pleasantly surprised that the emoji and the Roman numerals turned out fine. But ultimately this was a feat of engineering I did when I was bored from 2023 to nowadays.
Anyways, what makes this a compelling protest product is that it combines several things that fundamentalist Christians are very prone to hating. It takes Tarot cards and Ouija boards and shoves them onto dice that are literally divisible into an entire set of common and rare TTRPG dice, on top of the shape being a D&D d20 but divided into 6 triangles (putting a d4 on each face and then dividing by 2), a D&D d12 but divided into 10 triangles for each pentagon, as well as being a derivative shape of the d30 and d60. So basically, this "Tarouija" d120 combines multiple things that fundamentalist Christians consider "demonic" into one divination ritual item and thus is a great form of protest against the religious right. For the record I live in California. Hopefully this is interesting. Oh the OpenSCAD file needs the nightly build of OpenSCAD. #dicemaking #dicemaker #dice #d120 #unicode #unifontex #tarotcard #tarotdecks #tarotcards #tarotcardsreading #ouijaboard #ouija #3d #3dp #3dprinting #3dprinter #spiritboard #majorarcana #fuckice #protest #unifont #openscad #scad #3dart #art #tech #technology #code #font #fontdev #fonts #3dmodel #3dmodeling #3dmodels #3dmodeled #computerscience #compsci #boredom #activism #ice -

Ouija boards, rooted in the 1890s Spiritualist movement, serve as divination tools believed to connect the living with the dead, often perceived as portals for spirits. #ouijaboard #ouija #portals https://connectparanormal.net/2025/08/21/the-mystique-of-ouija-boards-and-paranormal-portals/

Just understanding the parallels betwen an #OuijaBoard and #GenAI.
Though the thievery and pollution of the AI remain obatacles to use.
"Do the spirits have messages for anyone here?"

I realised that my generation of nerds played heavily with Markov generation of text, back in the 90s and early 2000s. We enjoyed the hilarious monkey-cheese nonsense it spat out, and occasionally shouted in amazement as the roll of the dice landed on a unique or inspiring turn of phrase.
But that's how I see #LLMs: they're not a tool to write things in place of humans; they're a #OuijaBoard. It's fun to sit around the thing and turn the crank, generating eerie effects and complex narratives! But we all know it's a pseudo-random system based on reflexes rather than fact or conscious thought. The #kaleidoscope makes pretty patterns, but not out of any sort of artistic vision.
That doesn't mean we need a world without #kaleidoscopes or #Ouija Boards. But we're in a massive PR campaign from people who make money if we all succumb to FOMO and think "Oh gosh I dunno, I heard the AIs are smarter than us, so I should use this to generate my work for me. At least I think that's what my company's #AI initiative is about?"
I love that we're referring to the output as #slop now. I think that's a good way to deride the clear drop in quality these things bring. But we should look for more neutral metaphors like the ones I tagged above, so that people understand the limited role this stuff should play.

The theme tonight on EverybodysInLA is Paranormal. I hope they don't pull out a Ouija board. I once had a scary experience with one.

#Spooky / #Horror Hivemind: Looking for some inspiration for a chapter I'm working on. Any recommendations for scenes in late 1970s or early1980s TV shows and/or movies involving a #OuijaBoard? I just watched one in an episode of the Sopranos, but I'm looking for something a bit more dated. I seem to remember an episode of The Dark Side or Night Gallery involving a Ouija board.

#TombstoneTuesday: Elijah Bond, inventor of the Ouija board
Green Mount Cemetery, Baltimore, Maryland
Born in Maryland in 1847, Elijah Bond was both a lawyer and a Confederate Army soldier. He also invented and patented several things (like a steam boiler), but he is best know for inventing the original Ouija board (patented in 1891).
When he died in 1921, he was buried in an unmarked grave. Many decades later, a paranormal enthusiast and Ouija board collector named Robert Murch spent 15 years searching for the lost inventor. He found the grave!
Through the efforts of many volunteers and donations, a fitting headstone was placed to recognize the achievement of the man below. The front of the monument bears the typical names and dates, but the backside is engraved with a replica of his infamous Ouija board. Goodbye!
