TOGEPI, I CHOOSE YOU!

New month, new Carouse, Carouse! More gameables, reviews, opinions, and a veritable cornucopia of blog posts! www.carouse.blog/october-2025...

Hodag's stuff is so fun, if you're not keeping an eye on him, you're a fool and a nonce

Took a rec from @planesailinggames.com for a pull-up banner for Dragonmeet. I was a bit worried it’d turn out naff, as I knocked this up in GIMP yesterday morning and it arrived *today*, but for less than £40, I think this turned out alright! Rocking some @hodagrpg.bsky.social classic artwork too

It looks like the rpg designers are back from summer break, because this month's issue of The Explorateur is over-encumbered with designer reviews, advice, and resources. What should I do for the anniversary issue next month? www.explorersdesign.com/the-explorat...

Hyped for this!

I will always have a soft spot for togepi: one of my fav memories of gen 2 was fighting the Elite Four and getting one of their mons down to like 1 HP. One of my only mons left was a level 4 togepi that hit that final blow and got, I shit you not, like 30+ levels all at once

TOGEPI, I CHOOSE YOU!

The first public version of Protoplastic, the plastic robot roleplaying game, is now available!

This last month has been stuffed with new releases and blog posts. All of my favorite curated newsletters have been bigger than usual. (Good!)

I can't ever express how much I love my best man @hodagrpg.bsky.social ... and he knows how much I love Hingeback tortoises of the #Kinixys genus. I think this #TTRPG character, Hyngbacker, makes Metrodorus and Moana, two Home's Hingebacks, proud.

Saying goodbye to Star Wars Summer by watching Star Wars (anh) Grindhouse on blu ray, a birthday gift from the great @aaronkep.bsky.social !

The honor is all mine!!! Thanks again!

My adventure The Eternal Empress won second place in the Appendix N Jam from the judges! Content warning: body horror. Check it out here: weirdwonder.itch.io/empress

I wrote about the ubiquity of guilds of thieves and assassins in AD&D, why they might declare war on outsiders or each other, and how you can (& why you should) get the player characters mixed up in the middle! #AD&D #OSR

In this month's Rokaner Report, I talk about Flatline on the Blocks, games I'm runnning for the ALL FLESH IS SURPLUS digital convention, and my work with @chaoclypse.bsky.social on All Roads Lead to Rome open.substack.com/pub/5mwpress...

If there was ever a moment in time that I longed to live in forever, it would be the late Saturday nights of my middleschool years in the darkness of my mom's living room, half-asleep, bundled up on the sofa, watching Toonami. The horrors had only just begun to creep in then, but all was still well.

Sometimes I see someone draw a really good pair of pants and I just go wild. Truly ape for real ass pants.

#BPPB Classes included in this book: Fighter, Wizard, Cleric, Thief, Botten (machine people), Lizz (little lizard people), Elf, Dwarf, and Skeleton Warrior. I don't always play #OSR, but when I do I do it like this. www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/5...

Honestly, we are probably looking at a Captain Atom situation here.

the political policy cure for “male loneliness” is - more time to hang with the fellas (4 day work week) - more money to spend with the fellas (higher wages) - more things to do with the fellas (taxing the rich and building 3rd spaces)

Honestly, a really good article. It's not just Fox News and MAGA that have made it hell for trans people in recent years. It's some of the "liberal" news outlets and centrist publications that made this possible too.
