As a totally cheap-ass DM, my recommendation is to find some printable DnD tokens that you like and glue them to things like bottle-caps, or small round bits of wood (like chunks off of a dowel from the hardware store). There are a bunch around. If you want to splurge, take the bits you want somewhere you can pay for a quality color printout.
Personally, I'm a fan of these generic tokens by "Acquitt". They're useful for every encounter: https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fexternal-preview.redd.it%2FV7egJC87nsVUTybGs5E3DwvRihmz6KduUfniSJk6Fec.jpg%3Fauto%3Dwebp%26s%3D57f11a74865814f31c7236adb1555a43529ca355
I glued these to some sculpey discs of the same color. I also used transparent binder sleeves for HP tracker sheets, so I could use dry-erase marker. Lastly, my battle map was a large (but cheap) poster frame with 1" grid paper inside^1^. This let me use those dry-erase markers to draw terrain.
1. For more thrift, some wrapping paper brands print a barely visible 1" grid on the backside. Some quality time with a ruler and pen can turn that into something useful.

Sticks and stones will break your bones and words will fucking kill youA cantrip that's as effective as "power word kill" on mundane folk? Use 55 times to kill a dragon? How did I miss this? As a DM, I'd have to implement a house rule that _every_ such insult must be unique, as it is magically bound to the target at that distinct moment in time. And that goes for failures as well as successes: each use burns that phrase forever. At the very least this goes if used repeatedly against the same target. Besides, a good bard should be able to cook up fresh material. -
Hideo Kojima Made Significant Changes To Death Stranding 2 Because Playtesters Thought It Was 'Too Good'> Snake, this is a _sneaking_ mission. You are not here to assassinate anyone's work. -
Hideo Kojima Made Significant Changes To Death Stranding 2 Because Playtesters Thought It Was 'Too Good'Did they conduct this test in Japan? I ask since we could be losing something in translation. AFAIK, the Japanese people have a habit of being overly polite and not conveying strong emotion publicly, which might explain Kojima's reaction. If he wanted to provoke a *strong* reaction in people, they'd say very different things. -
kraken monsterHonestly, this is more OG than most people realize. You're doing it right. Coins, and even dice work in a pinch too. -
Classic BlunderYes, exactly! The moment my therapist laid out the path forward to mindfulness, it felt like I was handed a "debug mode" for my own brain. Life has been transformative ever since. -
Classic BlunderYou can do this - many of us do. However when you get to writing a solid backstory, or attempt to act as that character, it's all going to be "you" flavored on some level. Kind of like interpreting a Rorschach print. -
But why?Rogue: Waitasec, how many boons do you have?! Warlock: I dunno, a bunch. I lost count.
