Ascension 9 is a bit of a jump, huh?

I've apparently reached the age of "Bent my wrist wrong getting out of bed this morning, and it still hurts now, as I'm getting ready for bed."

I always liked the interpretation of Luigi as a total coward with no sense of scale. Like, he approaches dark rooms and eldritch horrors with the exact same level of not-sure-this-is-a-good-idea.

Friends of mine are having an April Charity Drive this weekend to raise money for Americans for Immigrant Justice! Please consider checking them out and if you can, donate a few bucks for a just cause!

Waaaayyyyyyyy ahead of you

Going live with Slay the Spire 2 and raising money for Americans for Immigrant Justice! www.twitch.tv/spritesanddice

Unironically one of my favorite movies ever since I first saw it at 14(ish).

Devs are seriously adding new mechanics way too fast, I'm never gonna remember all these interactions.

@christina42.bsky.social new goal: "Play DND with Todd Stashwick" money

I am broke-maxing. You can still AFFORD things??? Embarrassing. Get on my level.

Ready for some magical chaos? Add these magic-based games to your next #dnd festival!

Sometimes I think there's nothing he can say that would be stupid enough to surprise me anymore. And then he comes out with "The Pope is weak on crime."

I'm continuing the charity stream with Slay the Spire 2, starting in about 10 minutes! (I am so bad at this game please help me)

Mobile is the perfect platform for modern-day Diablo (pay-to-win bullshit is a separate issue).

Remember friends that sacred anniversary tomorrow, where our savior descended from the heavens to share with us a different path, a brighter path. That we might live a better life, and live it more abundantly.

Googles "How to recover from burnout while also working more than I am now"

And then it's like "They didn't have what it takes. No drive, thin skin..." No shit, they were doing it for fun and people made it not-fun

Update: starting at 8 PM ET.

Since I'm in the middle of Horizon: Forbidden West When the main character over-explains everything and tells me the answers to every little obstacle

I think I just heard my old creative writing teacher clutch his pearls

this headline is the same line of attack Hillary used in '16 to burn Sanders with re universal college. it's an applause line that can be completely undone by a reader stopping and thinking for literally three seconds

I was going to say that'd be perfect, because we get to laugh about it again when he doesn't come back. Then I remembered that the other guy didn't come back either, and that hasn't stopped anyone.

Artemis is a hopeful reminder that government can be a good thing if we staff it with passionate, skilled, and honorable people.

Alright TTRPG folks we need help. I've been lucky enough to have Mythworks reach out to publish a brand new edition of Breathless. If you have a blog/AP or anything and want to write about the game, contact me and we'll give you a free early access copy of the game for you to check out.

I *really* want to make a Danger Zone reference, but I'll save it until the astronauts are back home

Imagine if it happens today and nobody believes it.

I've always said that his speeches sound like excerpts from bad Call of Duty fanfic.

Just woke up, getting caught up on the news. So we need help from our allies against Iran, which is decimated, and the main objective of this already-over war is now to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, but we can end the war (which, again, is already over) without doing that. Do I have that right?

This is a legitimately great idea. Turn every ICE concentration camp into a museum of their crimes and the people who fought against them.

I'm more of an Automated Luxury Space Communism guy personally, but sure, I'll give it a shot.

So is there a reason why burgers in Frieren are like a foot in diameter? Or does the artist just really like burgers?

"It’s time to face reality, AI is here to stay" - Kingdom Come: Deliverance head Daniel Vávra says Larian got a "crazy shitstorm" for doing what "absolutely everyone else is doing", and that while he's "no fan of AI generated art" it's going nowhere. www.videogameschronicle.com/news/its-tim...

None of those words belong together, and yet a small part of me is morbidly curious.

so he doesn't support trans rights why the fuck are we giving the gov of cali the time of day he's just some shithead my 90 year old grandpa says trans people are fine and cool and should not only have rights but protections

I really needed that hour but they stole it

He's not failing though, he's doing exactly what he wanted and was hired to do.

On top of... *gestures vaguely at everything*... I'm getting near the end of Attack on Titan season 3, so I'm also a completely different kind of not okay

Could you imagine if I said I "can't comply" with orders to pay my taxes until I recoup what these tariffs have cost me?

TIL Chris Redfield has a drinking problem.

So, let's pretend for a second that this "holy war" against Iran actually will bring Jesus back and kick off the end times. How do these monsters think that's going to work out for them? Do they really believe the Prince of Peace is going to tell them "Good job, the gates of Heaven are this way"?

If I had a nickel for every story about a progressive pastor outperforming an incumbent Dem that I've read this morning, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it (already) happened twice

Oh shit, I am way behind on getting shitfaced and making fun of an antisemite's hat

Now I'm not gonna say mistakes have been made, but perhaps some questionable decisions. (Not the beer, the beer is great)

And why do we have young Americans in harm's way, Keith? WHY IS IT THAT YOUNG AMERICANS ARE IN HARM'S WAY TODAY?

Alt text: the cover art of a fake Dr. Seuss book. Two small bear-like creatures bounce on the belly of a larger one. Orange text reads "Stop Blowing Up Brown Kids With My FUCKING Healthcare Money"

Hello yes I would like to submit a story for your anthology.

*Covers ears to block out the Telltale Heart-esque thumping from my review backlog shelf*

*Wistful sigh*

So it's Black History Month and that means I think it's a good time to get familiar with Mike Pondsmith, if you're not already. When you see R. Talsorian Games, that's him. When you see Cyberpunk 2077, that's his world. Mekton, Castle Falkenstein, also him. cyberpunk.fandom.com/wiki/Mike_Po...

Hang on, you're telling me people basically get to play driving video games to make money? *Remembers how I drive in video games* ...y'know what, maybe it's for the best that I didn't get that option.
