Support Seamus! He is super good news!

I literally have no other experience with other gaming events (outside of church and FLGS), but PaxUnplugged has been consistently an amazing experience.

all of them together

Home from Pax Unplugged and already talking about game design with a friend who was also there.

My hero moment came to pass, this morning. Man at hotel: Does anybody have a blue pen? A blue pen? Everybody else, including the desk person: (polite/apologetic nos) Me: I have one.

A ghoulish groom attempts to drag his lover to Hell, like some kind of reverse-Meatloaf. This is the classic Cornish tale of Nancy Trenoweth, featuring a quick-thinking blacksmith, a humble servant and an exploding horse. But will the boys get through the story without any derailments?

No Map, No Plan can often be purchased with the PDF and print copies bundled together @drivethrurpg.com... but here they are bundled for 40% less! The goal? Complete a heist and make your escape! Prep? Knowledge? Escape route? No, no, no. Discount? Yes! www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/5...

I get that they're probably not great resource-wise, but you know what a catalogue has that a website does not? No AI "assistant" pestering me. And I liked* Clippy.

Not able to make it to PAX Unplugged this year, but you can still find Lost Among The Starlit Wreckage at @ipr.bsky.social's Booth 3701! Take on the role of a mecha pilot stranded in their broken machine, looking back on the war and hoping for rescue - a 2nd player can join as the rescuer!

Your last saved meme is your moral philosophy.

This is not a cry for help. This is a Simple Plan lyric.

Me: [having kind of a rotten start to the day] Brain: What's another night all alone when you're spending every day on your own? Me: ...not helpful.

Heads up, everyone, it's a Free Worldwide Shipping weekend over at INPRNT — www.inprnt.com/gallery/tang... IME, the prints look gorgeous (and I'm *really* picky), and have always arrived in perfect condition. Take advantage of that free shipping!

Just added to my Etsy shop: 🌿final small print run of my '26 calendars 🪶my handmade recycled silver jewellery designs (incl intricate casts of real flowers) 🌸limited ed'n mounted art prints of my photos 💐tiny posy mental health kits Last orders for📮 in time for🌲: 19 Nov www.etsy.com/uk/shop/silv...

I am not musically gifted enough to bring this to reality, but I would love to hear a Mumford and Sons cover of Hanging by a Moment (Lifehouse).

G: You want popcorn, but you don't want to make popcorn. You want to have it emerge, fully formed- L (on the nth day of a headache): From my brain? Maybe that would take the pressure off!

Periodically, this @pftompkins.bsky.social bit about the quality clientele he would encounter during his time working at a novelty hat shop will bubble up in my brain and then, having delighted me once again, will recede into the depths to await its next surprise visit...

Just executed a delightful, slapstick reveal of a Lupin III and Zenigata pair in tonight's Star Wars game. Had the players roll for them and went from there.

Hello Wednesday. 🖼️ Jill Barklem

Out now: Paget Brewster & @pftompkins.bsky.social join @hallublin.com & @makgags.bsky.social to clean a spooky Halloween slate!!

The Little Vampire Who Couldn't. Horatio and Zib - some silly stuff originally sketched in a Patreon livestream, prompted by a request for vampire Horatio.

Pull up a chair, please. I think it's time to have a talk about book jackets. Particularly modern book jackets. Especially in the UK, and particularly in the crime genre. My sense is that publishers haven't known how to jacket crime novels since the 20th century. I have evidence.

Seriously. These folk are ridiculously gifted and gracious and delightful. It's one of those universal truths. Like how love ain't no billygoat.

Another @thrillingadv.bsky.social show down. Superb and superlative, as always. I can only hope for more.

Off to another @thrillingadv.bsky.social to see @markgags.bsky.social and @hallublin.com and the rest!

New capybara just dropped (Commissioned)

IT'S OUT TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🎊🎉🎈 (sound on, please)

It’s so shite that patience is a skill that can only be learned through having it in the first place

Is this the greatest music video ever? @eleanormorton.bsky.social and I discover what might be the sexiest/spookiest performance of Tim Curry's career in The Worst Witch (1986). linktr.ee/readthat

I think I would have wanted to hang out with them in school, but I'm not entirely sure that counts as a compliment. Yet another delightful episode.

The best short ghost story ever.

@wegotthispodcast.bsky.social Wonderful episode on Autumnal sounds, and I can't argue with the winner. I just can't believe you missed the sound of children saying "Trick or Treat!" It's one of the few things that many of us still do as a community, and free candy rules.

Gee, it sure would be a good idea to prep my game for tomorrow. ... Ooh, the initial PaxU schedule has been released!

[watching a show about a fancy lobster dish] L: Yeah, but we're plebs, babe. White bread plebs. G: We're at least sourdough.

[Watching Suzume] Friend: It's so pretty. It's like Twizzlers. L: But ancient, evil Twizzlers. G: So....red vines?

developer: put it down. we don't need another one concept artist: (clutching tighter) no. this is my emotional support sky whale

Sure, it was a Stallone movie, but it really wasn't a Stallone movie. It was an ensemble of mayhem and delight.

I love this fucking movie

OK. Last time. A D&D Stirge detaches after draining 10 HP of blood. Therefore HP are a measurable unit of blood (I estimate 200ml per HP). Characters with high HP might have hundreds of liters contained in their bodies at high pressure. Even light nicks tend to spray anime-style. It's science.

Lucky 113 backers and just a hair away from being 40% funded. Want the greatest Halloween puzzle ever made? Back it here: www.kickstarter.com/projects/448...

all discourse aside, there is one machine with consciousness. it's printers. they are alive and conscious and they hate you and they'd take your arm clean off if you let them. never trust a printer.

"What doesn't kill you, only makes you stronger." IM STRONG ENOUGH ID RATHER EXPERIENCE THE THINGS THAT MAKE ME WHIMSICAL THANK YOU.

Do you think Bilbo would have said he felt like a squeezed out tube of toothpaste in a different world?

The Cog That Remains has reached 80% of its goal that will translate to some cool interior art to complement the cool cover art! This mecha mechanic Wretched & Alone solo #ttrpg will remain 65% off through November, so give it a try so I can throw money at an artist! itch.io/s/160017/the...
