Public Access is getting pretty close to 3000 followers! We’re aiming for 5000 before launch! www.kickstarter.com/projects/gau...

We are live!

YO are you making a zine for this? Are you PRINTING that zine, makin it exist IRL? Do you think it'd be cool for that zine to get sold out of a vending machine in a game bar in Portland, Oregon? DM us! (Think: A6-ish or smaller, $25 or less retail)

If you put your games in consignment with is there is a strong chance we tell customers that 1. Queer people exist 2. They make banger fucking games 3. You can buy those games from us We aren’t pushing an ideology “Steve” we are stating facts.

I'm soft launching migrating my newsletter to Beehiiv. Check it out, poke around, kick the tires. Let me know what you think. lonearchivist.beehiiv.com

So bless that coward's heart. I hope the quality, character, and integrity of Robbi's work didn't burn the word queer into his skin when he touched it to throw it away.

And that's great: Fuck them. I've also seen a young woman nervously sneaking it into her purse, hoping her friends wouldn't see. Last summer, a teen at a con passed our booth with his dad and reached out to snag one, then froze and realized his dad had seen him take it. His dad hugged him.

Get yourself a Pride bookmark y'all. I've watched it scare away high-profile TTRPG influencers I won't name. I've seen it make people walk backward out of our booth like they were vampires driven off by a cross.

I’ll name them.

Also, I'm very proud of Plus One's Big Gay Warehouse team, so they get extra snacks for the rest of March.

Bless Kegan for always clarifying when they take over

This is Kegan logging on to remind you we are a pro-faggotry company since someone just forgot. Thank you.

A lot of replies to this post argue as if ethics are a moral equation to solve instead of a promise between an opinion leader/authority and their audience. Distressing that we seem to only be able to understand accountability as laws to simultaneously police and circumvent.

There's been a shift w/folks sending sponsor packages & promoting their APs in certain spaces. They are including Dimension 20 & Critical Role images in their posts or decks to explain what APs are or how big they can be. Please stop. It's deeply misleading & these shows don't sell me. 1/2

Like I was in school I really liked getting this answer correct today on @plusoneexp.bsky.social Layout Rogues Guild stream with @clearkeep.bsky.social www.twitch.tv/tonyplusone/...

Less than $100 to our last stretch goal!!!

If you need art for your TTRPG project, we have made this small list of affordable places to look (we even update it from time to time)!

New episode of Dice Exploder with @idlecartulary.itch.io! DE returns to its roots with another episode about Blades in the Dark by @johnharper.bsky.social: we're talking Doskvol's lightning barriers and how the fiction of a game can be just as if not more influential on play than its rules...

Since I really can't keep anything to myself, @jnb.art and @satelitesnaturales.bsky.social join the THE DUNGEON THAT TOPS YOU team as fucked up filth pornography producer and fucked up filth pornography layout artist respectively. That means you should give me money for it asap

We are going live!

No one really starts with a blank page. Today, I’ll be giving a crash course on how to start stealing concepts for layout design and making them your own.

Little bonus pack of the stickers, poker chip and three random Conbini cards since people were asking for it! All for use for Fukuzatsu! ko-fi.com/s/e65f205865

let's freaking go! Our Trophy TTRPG anthology kickstarter launches on March 1. ruinanthology.com www.youtube.com/watch?v=noQL...

For everyone attempting to maintain a completionist collection of every scenario I've done, please note that I have a scenario in this anthology: a scenario set in a decrepit hot springs retreat. There's giant frogs, but the biggest threat is being talked into joining a cult. They're persuasive.

FINALLY!

Whenever this happens to me I put it in my Sad Diary which is just a folder on my computer with nice things in it for when I feel sad or like an imposter

Can't wait to join the guild

Last week to submit your content for the March newsletter! New releases, crowdfunders, reviews, essays: anything about mech rpgs is welcome!

Here's what I like about lore blocks vs stat blocks. They use natural language to describe characters. What GMs see on the page is what characters see in the world. I've been obsessed with closing this distance. The result is kind of genre-heresy. A storygame meets FKR meets OSR. A game for me.
