I feel like I am taking crazy pills. Charlie Kirk’s ultimate goal, which he said time and time again, would have been the suppression, through threat of violence and the use of state power, of the rights of those he disagreed with, including freedom of expression. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/11/o...

In the heart of Logres, an enchanted wood festers and grows. Many who venture beneath its nighted boughs are never heard from again... Pendragon: The Sauvage King is a collection of scenarios for roleplaying in King Arthur's Britain!

We weren't :)

This is friggin great.

legit drooling

Enigma in general but MCMXC A.D. in particular had a HUGE influence on me as a gamer in my youth

@annethegnome.bsky.social IT WORKED

These are, by the way, the NPC rules that @wick.works is looking at using for Lancer Tactics if you're interested in seeing what those are like www.kickstarter.com/projects/wic...

This series is FAR FAR superior to HP in myriad ways and everybody should read them. Skip the movie though

The german expression "Glückpilz" describes a lucky person, literally means "lucky mushroom"! The flycap 🍄 (fliegenpilz) is a good luck charm there. It's actually quite toxic, if eaten raw. So maybe just appreciate its beauty unless you know how to prepare it :)

It’s clear from our games, but just in case you missed it, 9th Level Games proudly and unequivocally supports trans rights, opposes fascism, and punches Nazis.

@drivethrurpg.com- put it back, cowards.

Anyone can become disabled at any time. It’s one of the few minority groups you can always join. Even if you do everything “right”. Even if you’re young and healthy. Even if you “try hard” It’s not a moral failing. It’s a part of life. Engage in disability justice.

We are all just temporarily abled. Disability accommodations and awareness benefits everyone.

@amabel.bsky.social I thought of you and Six Cities while watching this

This is my wife. I did the arrangement and instrumentation. #drwho #indiemusic

(psst: hey #theatrekids let's trick the N^Z! chuds into using "bless my homeland forever" as a rallying cry but make sure they don't figure out where it's from, ok? ok, go)

@danielsolis.bsky.social are you at my work today???

SUSD says City of Six Moons "is rare and it is fascinating" and said I am "one of the most curious, relentless, and innovative designers out there right now" and that is exceptionally kind & gratifying to hear. youtu.be/5Egd9DYJZ5c?...

Who’s up for a bit of Thieves Cant? I found this book in a used bookstore and fell in love. If you have a thieves guild in your game, it’s a must read

You can watch the full production of this here: archive.org/details/xebp...

Here’s a thing you should maybe know if you make content. If I start to watch your video and hear that shitty Ai voice narrating (that sounds nothing like a human being btw) I turn the video off immediately. No matter how interested I was in the content. 🤷🏼‍♀️

MITCHELL, NO

they make me SICK Seriously, I'm allergic =(

In case you're worried that you don't know where your story is leading you...

The Star Wars RPG by West End Games was one of the few things keeping Star Wars alive during the “dark times” (Chicago Tribune, 11/27/87)

Mega Man in Procreate from this day in 2021 #MegaMan

“Keep politics out of games.” Motherfucker, this isn’t politics. This is war. But yeah, we’re going to put them in there. !Sorry. Your purchases have gone towards supporting the people you’re probably sick of being asked to give a damn about. Get YOUR politics out of my sales report, how about?

This is an interesting read I don’t entirely agree with. ominosity.wordpress.com/2025/04/07/p... Solid argument, tho with Fate I would argue that the (narrow band) “succeed at a cost” is not necessarily “partial success” but rather a second binary that you resolve with choice rather than dice.

Coolest thing I've seen at Salute today: this minis version of the classic early-80s Atari arcade game Battlezone. Not the digital-to-tabletop adaptation I'd expected to find, but wow.

hey KC folk, the royals have a d&d/tabletop theme night on Wednesday, Sept 17th (v. Mariners; first pitch at 6:40pm) if you buy a theme ticket (+$10 to normal ticket price I think) you get a set of Royals dice and a one shot campaign written by their staff. I just think that's neat. You should go.

This is a few steps above my dream of staging Magic Flute as a scifi epic with Tamino as a Captain Kirk-style hero (complete with ripped shirt) marooned on a stage alien world

@rpdeshaies.farirpgs.com if you were to say this out loud, what would you say? Two dee six up, two dee six down?

And whoo boy- Land of Eem. I've been waiting for this one for a while, and am not disappointed. I am super happy to have backed this crowdfunding project from @landofeem.bsky.social Check all this stuff out: #TTRPG #IndieRPGs #TabletopRPGs

Tiny Fables, by @josiahmoore.bsky.social. This is a setting/sandbox adventure for Mausritter, which I am yet to play but have faithfully bought all of the merch for. Just look at all this stuff. This was crowdfunded and an insta-back. #TTRPG #IndieRPGs #TabletopRPGs

Jukebox, the Karaoke Musical Tabletop Roleplaying Game, by Lyla McBeath Fujiwara (be careful saying her neame in a theater) et al. This was crowdfunded and an insta-back for me. #TTRPG #IndieRPGs #TabletopRPGs

I will never stop making these little guys.

Ok, hear me out IF the #Muppets were doing an Addams Family movie riff GONZO must be Gomez. Fozzy would be Fester. Sweetums = Lurch. Ma Bear as Grandma. Walter = Pugsley. Morticia & Wednesday, human guest stars Thing (if we must) a felt hand. Trust me on this next part: Kermit and Piggy are...

Intern: Caucasian male, 40s, presenting with ocular migraines, mild synesthesia, and visual snow. Dr. House: Pass. Intern: Also he's constantly horny Dr. House: ...I'm listening...

The babies are landing! I'm so happy! Thank you for sharing your home with him.

Amazing, thank you @tessfowler.bsky.social !

mini #ttrpg rant: I love D&D, but it's not a storytelling game. It has nothing in the *actual mechanics* to support storytelling. And that's fine if 1. you don't want your game to feel like a story or 2. you're an experienced storyteller & never needed the game But MOST players are neither 🧵
