Muito triste, pois parece que o Prêmio da Paz da FIFA não tem credibilidade nenhuma :(

Americans going "maduro justifies this" to justify the assassination of Venezuelan people would be the most horrified if the rest of the world went "Trump justified ties" against Americans deaths, even if the same arguments hold 100x more weight by their own values

As fun as the actual exploration-puzzle loop of osr is, you play long enough and it becomes a game about being a landlord/small business tyrant petit borgeouis that takes breaks going into dungeons. So, without careful design (ahahahaha ohohohoho), OSR that wants to preserve this loop should be

Hey everyone. As this is the first Friday of 2026 I think I should make this a special Porcelain Friday. How? Why, by announcing the digital and physical release of Bloodstained Porcelain. I have been hard at work polishing and cleaning my Doll revenge story in preparation for this!

Critique #1: @strigarosa.bsky.social's review of You Will Die In This Place put it on the map for me, and I suspect quite a few people. It made a very strong case for something I suspect a lot of people would have skipped over: splitparty.substack.com/p/you-will-d...

If you are one of my readers, you know that I know most of us in TTRPGS don't care or value awards, having grown disillusioned with them. However, if this puts more eyes on my article on AI and the artform, the definitive and much needed talk on the issue, I think it would do some good.

4 hours left don’t miss out!

First S/P of the year, going into how the mechanics of After play with time and narrative in a way that is exclusive to TTRPG and would be impossible in any other artform. open.substack.com/pub/splitpar...

Whenever a certain movement attacks game design, I think of a specific example of one of their games.

Reading animation news, but specifically reaching the end of @ani-obsessive.bsky.social's newsletter, feels like this now

Real Girl's Talk is an amazing work looking into the precarity experienced by trans women in the US. A deep look into trans womanhood, its denial, the material and social conditions, and extrapolates its findings into blueprints for freedom and equality. adr.bio/rgt1

0.000% of Carthage has been built. Evil child-feeding Ventrue still rule the world with shit-eating fangs. All she has managed to do is make herself *sad*. She is starting to suspect Troile *fucked her over* personally with her Third City.

Now that their empire is in decline, I think it is time to come clean. All that cultural stuff you are nostalgic for and think it was great? Rubbish. The rest of the world was just enabling you. Sorry, that was the point of soft power, getting the world to reassure you Candyshack was funny

Read one of your books on the shelf.
