had a huge milestone at SomerCon last weekend: my first repeat celebrity guest for The Show Must Go On! Congratulations to Bill Nye the Science Guy! Probably your crowning achievement, I'm glad I could give it to ya.

no i didn't "ask claude," i sat down and fucking LEARNED something

come find me! I'll be moderating the "Just Go For It! Low Prep GMing Tips" at noon and then running The Show Must Go On! in session 2. I think there are 2 last minute seats for my session for any wait-list ticket holders 🥰 otherwise... seriously, come find me! say hi! see you soon ✨

woke up this morning with an open tab about identifying refrigerant poisoning. i don't remember looking that up. real poisonjr moment.

Really need to know how many adult “mommy’s little Railfan” shirts the NJ Transit store has sold

Listen here FRIENDS. What are you doing on SUNDAY? Cause if you're free you should come see us in SOMERVILLE. We're putting on a SHOW, in the EVENING and its only $20. But if you're free all day you should get the $10 all day pass too and come see some amazing PANELS. Unless you hate fun

yet another GitHub outage?

i have time off in like two weeks and i just need to do enough to not get fired until then that should be easy i can do this we can do this (i'm concerned i cannot do this)

Ok! Thanks for letting me know

Super proud to have worked with the wonderful @beautifulworldinc.bsky.social on Thieves of the Tome, which is now award-nominated for his art!? Go checkout all these really cool games, and if you haven't seen Tom's work yet, give Thieves of the Tome a look too! www.igdnonline.com/groundbreakers

The kids? They love Public Access.

Public Access now allows players to have tamagotchis instead of a cool dog as part of the “Say Hello To My Little Friend” move, which is the single fucking funniest substitution you could make in this nightmare generation game.

This level of contempt should be the baseline

It’s me. I’m coughing 99% of the time. At one point I’m very clearly sweating and crying after eating a wing with no sauce on it. I drink 16 glasses of milk and I keep saying “ouughhhh my tummy”

i cleaned my room and i carted a carfull of shit across town and i walked up and down a bunch of stairs all before 10am and Dunkin had the AUDACITY to get my order wrong??? horrors beyond comprehension.

good god i need to release my game so I can move on.

The Grink

talked with @yours.is and we agreed that it smells like a couple of homo(wner)s over here 🥰

Hey GMs! If you want drama in your one-shots and a formula you can prep to, I finally wrote the manifesto I've been threatening to: "Two Encounters, No Good Choices." It's got actionable steps you can follow to design a satisfying one-shot! Promise! #ttrpg Free/PWYW on Itch: bit.ly/4uX6Okv

yesterday was 4 years on HRT (and also PAX Saturday!)

Last day of Pax East! Come play one of my all-time fav TTRPGS with me: Perils & Princesses 👑👑👑 Adv reg on the app and walk-ins welcome if space available!

well i just don't think that's true

I'm sick and pax is imminent and this work project is killing me and I'm going to be a homeowner in a week but also my friend and i got invited to an in person callback for a game show

due to mostly good luck, the home buying process has been very quick and relatively straightforward. this has put us in the really stupid position where we are cleared to close, but our scheduled close date it is 3/31 11 days of everyone just sorta staring at each other, like... lemme in there lol

#PAXEast is just a week away?! I'll be in and around Games on Demand for most of the weekend running The Show Must Go On and @dairykillsme.bsky.social 's Thieves of the Tome! Come see us!!

being a billionaire would actually be awesome. because think about it: you could go to the nicest restaurants, travel the world, and buy as many sports cars as you wanted. buy them with what? your billions of dollars. exactly. more people need to understand the power of money

Yeah i love OpenClaw... Opening a Whiteclaw and drinking it!!!!!!!!

these colors don't run

i hadn't fully clocked my abrupt transition into Adulthood, until i woke up on my own at 6:30 on a Saturday and started texting my wife about the logistics of trash collection at our new place

not to mention the constant devaluation of my OWN labor as a software engineer, which happens constantly by my immediate peers!

i just bought some cardamom at the store. they didn’t ask to see my driver's license since i’m a father

I'm trying to figure out the protocol for telling this realtor that the AI generated pictures of the house make it really hard to actually tell if the listing is good or not. the ceiling looks like it's melting ma'am, do you think I'm stupid?

so the silly muppet game has a mechanic where players can introduce a new "rule of the universe" on occassion ive had a problem with this, because a surprising number of dudes show up and use the rule as a way to metagame or WORSE negate something i've already established

i think the all american rejects should have just accepted the rejection and moved on to other things

i know exactly where, what, and how often everyone should be posting. i know everything and i'm the boss of all of you

playing daggerheart for the first time, and I gotta tell ya folks. it lives up to the name. lotta daggers.

this reads like some 2011 era tumblr shit about how you can't sleep because you'll miss out on "all da fandom feelz" fortunately, the cure for posting cringe remains largely the same: go talk to another human in real life. make friends outside of your narrow experience.

slam dunked my phone right into the ground yesterday. what happened next may surprise you.

Everyone is Seagulls is a despicable infohazard that should never be played. I am so excited to see a) a panel of drag queens playing it and b) that it has full audience participation. Thankfully it only lasts an hour. God speed, brave warriors

year of no bits update: ran a session last night that only had ONE bit and honestly it didn't count as a bit because it didn't persist beyond the scene. successful no-bit game. #YearOfNoBits
