D&D General D&D: Literally Don't Understand This

Without context, nothing about the art says D&D to me. If it was talking about a section in Radiant Citadel, then I guess. Picture looks more like a Chinese-Lantern themed quinceañera to me though.
 

Eh. On Bluesky, it seems to me to mostly ignore WotC's existence, rather than be actively anti-WotC.
That's my experience on Bluesky too, following a lot of RPG industry and related people.

D&D sometimes gets mentioned as something people are playing, nobody gets mad about it (as they might have say, two or three years ago on Twitter), but it also doesn't attract much interest either (where say, five years ago people might have been keen to discuss it, even on Twitter).

WotC hasn't had an absolute car-crash disaster since I started regularly reading Bluesky but I feel like the "X days since" sign is going to get set back to zero before too long so we shall see how Bluesky is then!

I guess, neither BS or X is great if you are looking for actual discussion on WotC products, with the difference being BS tends to shift discussion whatever 5e heartbreaker of the month is while X inevitably breaks down into trolls yelling how D&D isn't racist or sexist enough for them anymore. Even Reddit usually devolves into Pathfinder vs D&D debates.
 




This image comes from WotC's X feed. I have no idea what this is, nor what it has to do with Dungeons&Dragons, fantasy role playing, or...anything. Is there a new dancer class or something in the 2024 iteration?

From Tales of the Radiant Citadel:

Divas attack the crowd at the Thornapple during their March of Vice performance.

Kala has been lurking near the Thornapple, looking for opportunities to strike at Zenia. She found her opportunity with Diva Luma, tainting the diva’s glitter—a feature of the diva’s performances—with rage-inducing biza’s breath.

Diva Luma uses the assassin stat block, but her only weapon is her wicked, high-heeled shoe, which functions as a Shortsword attack without poison. The other two divas use the scout stat block and attack only with broken bottles that function the same as their Shortsword attack. As the divas are all under the effects of biza’s breath, they each randomly make one melee attack against Zenia or a character on their turns. All three divas fail their saving throws to resist the poison affecting them for three rounds. On the fourth round, they overcome the effects of biza’s breath and groggily stop attacking.
