Hey, look. It's a decent scan of this legendary image!

alright its time for another one page rpg, so here is Gay Hockey Dragon Sex Coffee Shop Romantic Sportsball Cozy Dark Fantasy which I feel covers all my bases pretty neatly

We used to be a country

The bluesky address is @attie.ai and it really needs to be in the top five accounts blocked on this platform. This is honestly some of the most tonedeaf shit I’ve seen from BS and thats saying something

Bit of a history lesson. Long ago in #warhammerfantasybattle there was a race called the #Fimir It vanished soon from the game due to various reasons which you can find out in link below. It is bit tongue in the cheek but more detailed than more 'respectable' sites like Lexicanum. 1/7

movie about all the world's nations working together to stave off an environmental apocalypse succeeds by completely avoiding politics

I’ve found a surefire way to get audience participation, though. “Ask questions or there will be more botfly facts.”

The various play and design philosophies in RPGs insiting they are different is like two garishly dressed wrestlers cutting promos. It is technically possible for an outsider to tell they are different. But you need a decent appreciation for the lore to tell whis is which. They do the same stuff.

We were crucified nearby… how often can you say that?

god: i have made the Great Potoo. angels: you fucked up a perfectly good bird is what you did. look at it. it's addicted to meth.

My favourite store in Berlin has run into a spot of trouble. Every little bit helps. www.gofundme.com/f/help-save-...

I know I'm late to the party, but this mood is year-round.

Missed this skeet six months back. I think we made a really good book. Coolest cover of any book I've been a part of too, by Nevzat Aydin.

"No to war... and free Palestine" Javier Bardem

Deserved win for Michael B. Jordan. Dude worked twice as hard as the others.

Due to popular demand, here's every Space Marine legion from Warhammer 40,000 as a document in our collection. I: Dark Angels Obviously, they're this photograph of a tree in Burnham. Why this photograph? The tree has Fallen.

Always a good day...

"The basic income was life-changing. Only months into the scheme, I found out I was pregnant. The basic income helped me decide to have my baby, knowing I could continue creative work and keep my small studio space... The basic income gave me more freedom to experiment in my work." DO UBI FOR ALL.

quick reminder that NT's production of The Importance of Being Earnest, starring human ray of sunshine Ncuti Gatwa, will be streaming FOR FREE on YouTube this weekend www.radiotimes.com/movies/ncuti...

Which is to say, I’m unbelievably thrilled to say this morning I’ve signed a contract with @mitpress.bsky.social for the trade publication of my next book, an exploration of the first two decades of TTRPG Actual Play.

A comedy masterpiece.

Happy International Women's Day~✨️ Wishing all the women (transwomen are women) out there a very "Women's Rights are Human Rights". To everyone else, a reminder that solidarity means so long as any of us is oppressed, all of us are✊🏽

No. I'm a fan. I've got the DVDs and the RPGs and I probably drop way too many references to the show in my normal speech. But it is over, and it was a long time ago, and we have already let go. I don't want to see the 2020s version of Firefly. I want to see new things.

This small but vivid sculpture depicts a steppe bison (Bison priscus), an extinct species that roamed the European tundra during the Upper Paleolithic era, (circa 17,000–12,000 years ago).

It's not just that I resent having to turn your AI agent off every three days because you refuse to respect my settings: I also want its ugly-ass annoying logo and constant reminder of its existence to vanish from my UI. I don't want it, I don't want to look at it, I don't want to think about it.

I have decided that I can hold off on this for another ten, fifteen years, because that's probably when Pokémon's 30th anniversary is gonna be.

A grim fact about the Olympics I just learned: The corpses of the contestants who die during the skiing events are left on the slopes as it is too dangerous to collect them for proper burial

When people question your book hoarding

This is a very specific comment but: GOODBYE CON CRUD

2nd edition crowdfunding for the ever-original The Old The Cold The Bold by Whitney Delaglio, who authored the mermaid romance TTRPG -- PRISM. Pulling off heists against the deserving ultra-rich has never been this fun!

The key lesson here is that you do not shit on your own product. The other one is that you don't shill for genAI, but that'll be less relevant once the bubble bursts.

Great to see that Ryan Dancey's embrace of plagiarizing AI and his denigration of the games created for his company was a step too far for AEG. Now we can happily buy games like the "Let's Go to Japan" sequel without having to worry about them being AI slop.

And age-restricted because of non-alcoholic beer! Splendid video, though. I've felt a certain suspicion towards Carved from Brindlewood, but I think that the mechanic would work for me better in creepypasta horror rather than a straight-up murder mystery.

and now for your moment of chonky floating zen

he sees all

I don't know who keeps doing this but you have to stop I'm begging you
