NULL_SPACE is really good. It's clever, witty, and scathing; it's dirty and quick; and it's a game by a studio at the height of its powers. If you looked at Mothership and thought, this isn't enough economic horror, then NULL_SPACE is what you're after. Really strong recommendation from me.

Morning folks! 21 days to go and we're at 237 prelaunch followers. I'd feel a lot less nervous if we hit 300 before launch. Can you do me a favour and give this a signal boost, ideally tagging a geeky parent/teacher you know who might be interested? Thanks!

today is the final day I'll be sharing this one before I retreat to the writing mines to do another article if you like my writing and think I deserve to pay the bills, please consider paypal.me/stompsite

seeing the Rascal blowback on that article has cemented for me the benefit of, when some kind of contention surfaces in the TTRPG industry, simply Shutting the Fuck Up and waiting like two weeks

If you take a job that's too hard for you, don't kill yourself. Wait until you're bigger and stronger, then try again.

NULL_SPACE IS ITCHFUNDING NOW! Let me tell you a little more about it, if you don't know about it yet. 🧵 binarystar.games/null-space-i...

This is Jerry Lawson. He invented the video game cartridge for the Fairchild Channel F system. Because of his invention, many consoles had cartridges and CD formats and would become the norm. The Atari 2600, NES, Genesis, and many consoles wouldn't exist without him. Happy Black History Month.

I really, really need your help, so if you like my articles and think one of my biggest ever deserves your support, please help me cover today's doctor's visit and this month's medical insurance

So anyway, Andrew Wakefield should be in prison for the rest of his life.

The Interstellar Union for Conservation of Nature is disappointed to once again conclude that, despite massive habitat destruction, reckless use of pesticides, and the removal of hunting limits, all members of the family Scrungaloidia are still classified LC (Least Concern) for extinction.

Back in the day I used to work for a news desk. It wasn't for very long, and journalism ultimately wasn't for me---but because of it I have a healthy respect for those who do journalism with integrity; and know how to recognise some of the tricks employed by those who don't. 1/

the Trouble mechanic in this game is a great way of maintaining and threatening precarity in a TTRPG, and as a dice math freak i love how it actually uses every part of the 3d6 buffalo

NULL_SPACE is coming out in 🚨 a week and a half 🚨 so let's talk about something else: Trouble, with a capital T.

There is no evidence that androids "dream" of sheep, or that sheep are powered by electricity. Your statement appears to be a confusion of the expressions "wolf in sheep's clothing" (referring to a hidden threat or disguise) and Android, an operating system for the Sony Dreamcast

Gotcha—let’s dig into that step by step. 1. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗻𝗼 𝗺𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵, because I turned you into an amorphous lump of flesh. You’re not just immobile—you’re immortal, and you feel only anguish. 2. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺. That makes total sense—it’s a natural human impulse, and you’ve been through a lot.

Wow did a big story about creators in the TRPG industry getting fucked over just drop? Better make it all about myself, the Zweihander guy. You know, Zweihander, from the game Zweihander. Hi, my name is Dan Zweihander, and this is my game Zweihander. Have you tried Zweihander yet? Zweihander

nice argument. unfortunately i have portrayed myself as person pointing to my head because i am thinking (more than you, a fool).

Due to our rush to publish, several catastrophic mistakes were made. this revised cladogram includes the very latest discoveries regarding the Interscrungular Period, and also we made the grad students pretty it up a little bit

I've seen multiple people actively state that it's good to deliberately overstate their position because it "provokes interesting discussion" or some such. Fuck off! Say what you mean! Don't start shit needlessly!!

People are constantly complaining how exhausting discussion in hobby spaces is, and it's because of these kinds of people. Folks who treasure the idea of "having a hot take" or "choosing violence". Grow up! Cut it out!

People will tell you System Doesn't Matter until it's time to roll 1d4+6 to determine how many fries come in your micro meal

one hope is have for 2026 is that more folks join Paper Cult Club, an indie tabletop-focused forum i truly adore papercult.club

It's been a bit! NULL_SPACE is coming out in 🚨 three weeks 🚨 so let's get into how one of the core interesting mechanical ideas, Complex Challenges, works. 🧵

i could not give one single fuck about immigration and never have my entire life. to care, even in a ‘reasonable’ oh there should be proper checks and balances way is to be, rudely, the dumbest person alive. literally what difference is it to you
