@possibleworlds.bsky.social New addition to the 5am shift work hat.

This, too, is yuri

Watching all of the commanders in #Vanguard get their last minute orders in before the game starts: 🍿

I wrote a game in ~8 hours. It's not fun, but it exists. Experience being a young person in the alt-right pipeline, and what it's like getting out of it. Content warnings listed on the page. ambynavy.itch.io/black-ice

repost for the reasonable crowd that expects new things to crop up in the AM and not right before bed.

What's the best time to launch a blog? 10:16pm EST on a Wednesday night? No? Damn, alright. deldon.bearblog.dev/2026-year-st...

A Malay saying goes: "Siapa makan cili dia rasa pedas." Literally: "Whoever's eaten chilli feels the spice." This describes those people who get *very angry* when you make a general criticism, because in their hearts they know they are guilty of exactly what you said.

y'all we have been *cooking* over the month of December.

June's outpout is probably the biggest inspiration for getting my own designs back on the rails. Excited to see what 2026 has in store, for myself and of course, for DQ&D

YOU CAN DO IT TOO: IT IS TRIVALLY EASY. COME PLAY IN THE SPACE HOGS. itch.io/jam/old-scan...

A gift, for the festive season, my first ever an OSR. You can tell its an OSR because its made entirely out of offcuts from B2 The Keep on the Borderlands. Its compatible with many games and also incompatible with at least 3, probably. juniperc.itch.io/bn-2-the-kee...

So far Cataphract has been a lot like playing Strip Poker but trying to get everyone's money. No one can keep their poker face once the top comes off. #vanitera450

In a very special Bonus Episode of Between Two Cairns, @bradkerr.net and I interview @samsorensen.bsky.social about Over/Under, a massive wargame/LARP held during Mothership Month. This episode is only available to Patrons but will see a wider release in the future. www.patreon.com/posts/story-...

Out now: WHALE ROADS The chronicle of a year-long, 30+ player West Marches campaign of Wolves Upon the Coast by @lukegearing.bsky.social A 250-page "zine" filled with play summaries, original art, and Referee commentary. Available now, and it's 100% completely free. sulcata.itch.io/whale-roads

@juniper-c.bsky.social surely this counts as an OSR right?

#ICYMI folks w/deep experience re:crisis web archiving (@sucho-org.bsky.social)+building tools for it (@webrecorder.net) made a free zine teaching how anyone can archive the things you love on the web before they go away: zinebakery.com/homemade-zin... & why you shouldn't expect others will do so

Juniper is pioneering the future of OSR blogging by dragging it kicking and screaming back to it's roots (zine swaps)

Very grateful to have been quoted in this. #over/under was some of the most emotionally intense playing I've done, ever, and I'm not sure how long it will be until I'm *not* thinking about it daily

June has been in this scene for 2 weeks and already has ended all discourse with these laser focused takes.

thegardenbelow.blot.im/what-is-an-osr @juniper-c.bsky.social learned about the OSR while playing #over/under and has somehow managed to already learn enough about it to hold correct opinions on what OSR stands for. @explorersdesign.bsky.social is it too early to submit posts for the Bloggies?

Explaining #over/under to out of game players in #vanitera450 is making me realize what a farce the wargame turned into by the end

#Vanitera450 is yet another game that lets me commission one of my favorite artists to draw my character!! Thanks so much for bringing The Witch on the Red Wind to life @d20plusmodifier.bsky.social !!!

I've put feelers out there in some of the post-game discord servers, but I am fully open to discussing my experience in #over/under with anyone who's interested, in or out of the game! If you want to hear from a Denizen who clawed their way up to Boss, hmu!

#over/under was not one of a kind. I have been playing similar games for the last EIGHT YEARS. Today, I give this medium a name - "Live Text Roleplay" - and help you build a community of your own. www.valerialoves.com/how-to-repli...

Was thumbing thru my copy of APoF today and noticed a typo so I quickly corrected it. @lukegearing.bsky.social #over/under

In case anyone was worried, the #over/under lesbians were keeping it messy right up to the 11th hour.

#over/under is finished, here's Asha's final Tempest scene

I cannot stress how much WEATHERVANE won the game for Tempest. Like, I was able to take win/loss statistics, casualty predictions, and squad costs, and accurately price war contracts' % gross profit. #over/under never saw a Hot War from Tempest and WV proved it would have been *brutal*.

The beautiful thing about #over/under is that despite not getting to partake in Sam's The Sink/Doptown one-shot, I am within my fictional powers to order the players that did so to write a summary for me.

Achievement Unlocked #over/under #noreservations

#OVER/UNDER a bit proud of this one

@grinningrat.bsky.social , couldn't have asked for a better Commander, scene partner, friend. Thanks for everything, ma'am 😉 #over/under

Asha, Act II #over/under

If anyone ever wanted to know why every Boss in #over/under smokes, this is what it's like to play the wargame.

I *cannot* stress enough how vital these two threads have been to keeping Tempest sane. If any #over/under faction doesn't already have their own meme/ooc channel please make one.

In the last 24hrs of #over/under I have seen more OOC check-ins and frank convos about consent than in the entire game thus. @sean.tuesdayknightgames.com @samsorensen.bsky.social thanks for taking my concerns seriously so quickly. I am incredibly disappointed that this wasn't addressed from the jump

Sam: and on the tenth day I will unleash chaos and they will tear each other apart Every Single Faction in a matter of hours: Not in my Dream #over/under

I'm sure it's fine. #OVER/UNDER

Hey @samsorensen.bsky.social what's it like having 1600 people narrate *your* dice rolls? #over/under
