According to Woolworths checkouts, *I* am "debris" in the bagging area.

I am ashamed and disappointed in people that call themselves Australians who were booing in Melbourne, Perth and Sydney this ANZAC day. Not the place, definately not the time. Always was, and always will be.

Live watching the first human launch to the moon in my lifetime. Good luck #ArtemisII

Horrible TTRPG Round Hastening #127: each player stands and holds at arms length a 12kg (26lb) kettle weight between turns, only putting it down for their turn.

Perdita thought she had come to the Dog Park to present a lecture on "Proper Ball Use", but little did she know Altair had arranged an intervention...

What is an alternative (other than doors, windows and skylight) into a mausoleum? (Did have minaret, but on researching, was inappropriate) Suggestions?

Literally a globular version of Ophanim:

What "balanced" reporting actually is:

Steve Dee of @tinstargames.bsky.social has passed away. He made many games that i love, and that you may have played - Baby Dragon Bedtime, Relics, Partners, The Score and more. I can think of no better words about him than his last Patreon post:

New trailer for Dungeon Experience: youtu.be/jiO5wOaxZDQ?...

Is it cheating to avoid Whamageddon by listening to things through headphones?

How do you write multiple endings for a #ttrpg scenario? Wrote 1524 words to the last part #GraveyardTalentScouts today, but unsure if all outcomes are covered. #ILMttrpg

A terrible failure - the mandatory guard rails mentioned looked promising, and now they just dropped them entirely.

Another day, and the 1039 words of the #GraveyardTalentScouts Climax is drafted. Just the Denoument and a heck of a lot of editing to go! #ILMttrpg

Wrote 1,463 words to #GraveyardTalentScouts today. Just gotta write the Climax, the Denoument and then edit to be succinct and coherent. #ILMttrpg

"Those are some banger titles, honestly." - Emma, referring to ##BestLeftBuried and #GraveyardTalentScouts for #ILMttrpg

Other than Cherubim, Ophanim and Seraphim - are there any other biblically accurate angel descriptions? #ILMttrpg #GraveyardTalentScouts

Wrote a lot today. Have to rewrite/scrap a lot of it - but productive! #ILMttrpg #GraveyardTalentScouts

"how did you get into ttrpgs?" I fell into a ttrpg cave as a child, and they scared me so much I decided to take on the mantle of ttrpgs to scare players.

Stop hitting yourself Cleon! #foundationappletv

#ILMttrpg seems like this these days.

Finally watching Run Lola Run.

Just sent a gift of 5 small lapel pins to the USA. Cost me nearly $70 in #tarrifs. What the actual heck?

Why are there so few gay dudes in the popular media I consume? Plenty of gay women, but no gay male couples. More transgender diversity would be good too.

Watching "Together" and a swear we already have Chekhov's Reciprocating Saw...

A lot of my luggage is new #ttrpg books...

Another amazing #PAXAus down. So many games played, and added to my library. Now to recover and get back to work.

Melbourne: i am *in* you

Wrote up 5 faction abilities today thanks to brainstorming with Somniomistress. Just a few more to go. #ILMttrpg

How is it only now, and through an old episode of @magethepodcast.bsky.social that I learn there was a group of silicone rally dude-bros (to be clear, not good people) who used #MagetheAscension to gaslight others?

@the-episiarch.bsky.social i am the weirdo who asked to follow you at Skeptics At The Pub. I may have some consulting i may need on parasites and based on what I saw of your art some commissions.

Realised that many of the epitaphs for #GraveyardTalentScouts have a similar theme because of the work I alluding to. May have to revisit. #ILMttrpg

Controvertial opinion: #StrangeNewWorlds episode "Four-and-a-Half Vulcans" is at the same time one of the funniest but still thought-provoking #StarTrek episodes of all time. Long live Doug!

#Brainstrust: If a notice/perception/search roll gives you page from a book relevant to the story with Success, 2 with a Critical Success, none with failure and an unrelated item the character thinks is significant with Critical Failure - what sort of thing should that unrelated item be?

Never thought I would be *adding* rivers of white to my text for effect in #GraveyardTalentScouts handouts rather than removing any made by mistake or happenstance. #ILMttrpg

Hopefully those #GraveyardTalentScouts time mechanics work and are not too onerous for GMs and players. #ILMttrpg

Strange when information regarding one event is blow by blow, endless, excruciating, exacting details - and then others that are close in time/theme are a paragraph or two of vague prose. Anyway, back to researching wars and civil engineering for #GraveyardTalentScouts in the #ILMttrpg.

Last time I was here was with @talera79.bsky.social and @hamthedm.bsky.social at a pokey but enjoyable convention where we caught up at breakfast after...

Much writing on #GravyardTalentScouts today - while now 9489 words, will be cut down in editing. Now to figure out what epitaphs related to Healing and Science skills tell players... #ILMttrpg

Writing 26 epitaphs for graves and tying them to events in Spain and Morrocco. #GravyardTalentScouts #ILMttrpg

Just as P.I. Reed got a 'redeemable' trophy in #thesinkingcity, I finished the game. That said, much kudos @frogwares-games.bsky.social for not only an excellent Cthulhu game, but also a game that made me feel like a detective!

Making some handouts for new scenario I am writing and contemplating how best to use images and colours in public domain. #GravyardTalentScouts #ILMttrpg

Every trophy for #thesinkingcity seems to be about making Charles Reed the bad guy. Why are there so few cheevos for good P.I. Reed @frogwares-games.bsky.social ?

#Nobody2 shows us why water and theme parks are fronts for organised crime.

If people made art that was significantly like existing copyrighted art, they would be taken to court for infringement. What AI companies are wanting is this privilege without the possibility of being fined or sued for infringement. #noai #humanart

About to watch potentially the dumbest movie of all time. Amazon Prime's War of the World's.

#Andor is a masterpiece from start to finish and makes #RogueOne even better (and it was pretty good in the first place) #StarWars
