are you jewish and do you think you can gather 2-5 players for TTRPG playtest that must take place in the next 48 hours? if so, send me a DM!

I watched The Lion in Winter, a brilliant and devastating Christmas movie with intense performances from Peter O'Toole, Katharine Hepburn, Anthony Hopkins, and Nathan Fielder

Hoomom made an GoFundMe because I'll need a blood test every 4-6 months... They think they want to get me blood tests every january, may, and september, anything over the amount will be used for my prescription foods!! www.gofundme.com/f/support-ha...

A Brazilian phrase for describing a place that’s in the middle of nowhere is na casa do caralho. It means “in the house of the penis.”   * read on for more international phrases about remote or backwater places (a thread)…

Every time I read this I find a new part of it to love and lately I’m really into (walking ashore)

Been thinking on the use of GenAi for mood boards. Ethics and legal risks aside, I truly believe using GenAi as references deprives one of many pivotal things. Here’s a blurb on what I mean:

This episode features an extended digression where I basically go "does anyone else remember Bee Movie TV Juniors??" Well, do you? They were weird ads for Bee Movie that Jerry Seinfeld forced NBC to play on prime time. Again, they were called Bee Movie TV Juniors.

You can also hire her to do cover designs, ebook formatting, and paperback typesetting. She can even do those tricky paperback wraparound covers and dust jackets, and charge very reasonable prices! See her portfolio and contact form here. mzakharuk.com

In the CASTLE AUTOMATIC, the Outer Sanctuary has many sights both strange and majestic. Confess to the Queen of Cups, view a giant mummified vampire, or interrogate the anchorite King of Cups. Art by Felipe Faria (Join the Early Worm campaign! www.exaltedfuneral.com/pages/the-ca...)

I will have to second Harvest, alongside Grand Guignol (both by Luke Jordan). Another must-read TTRPG I've found this year is Zephyr. Very evocative worldbuilding, with excellent writing that makes the reason for every introduced element clear. The text fits well alongside every art spread.

As you may know, I have stopped using Twitter, and have decided to reproduce some of my more memorable threads here for posterity. Here’s one I hold wrote after a particularly engaging swordfighting lesson. Buckle up, swordfighting fans, because I *have* studied my Agrippa! [BIG ASS THREAD]

Body horror is the core of dungeon crawling for me and injury tables were something I always struggled with. Turns out, the key is to make it both a little weird and change how often death is an option. snowttrpg.itch.io/songbirds-3e

ME: I've never dated a cenobite before. I'm not sure, who pays? CENOBITE: Your panic is exquisite. ME: I wouldn't mind going dutch…? CENOBITE: I can taste your pain on the air. A shiver of electricity. I am going to hold your head down on the floor and open your skull from behind. ME: I'll just pay.

"Well, I'm back" he said. Over the last three months, I've keyed every hex in the bounds of the Shire, including rumors, nested random encounters, and five embedded mini-dungeons. I've collated them into a document, linked on the blog:

doing promo is physically painful for me but i really would love it if you bought or read my newest book that came out a few months ago. i think it’s the best thing i’ve ever made and im so immensely proud of it. simplicitybook.xyz

New #TTRPG review day! This time a look at SPINE by @backwardsttrpg.bsky.social It's a weird, ergodic and deeply engaging gamebook that wants you to scuff and sully it, leaving you with a keepsake at the end (or a gift for an unsuspecting victim). youtu.be/N3yvyUmQ2B4

What I would love more than anything for the holidays is for our two most shy mama cats to find their forever homes. Porsche, mom of the Auto Club kittens, since May this year. Shoyu, who is the mama of last year’s wonderful little grass Miso & Dashi, has been in our rescue since October *2024.*

I don't really post anymore, but I would like to carry on writing books at some point in the future. Hate to be annoying, but any chance you could retweet so old twitter followers can find me if they want to? Going to delete my twitter, or at least abandon it on lock and let it die a slow death.

I'm 42 today. As is tradition, here's a free zine about the books I read in 2025: erinking.itch.io/notable-book...

I can still barely believe that PC Gamer let me write about Beyond Citadel as one of my first pieces this year. Hell of a game and my recommendation needs to be accompanied by a flashing neon warning visible from orbit.

"If everyone who streamed All Hell on Spotify had done so using Tidal instead, we would have received an extra £31,847.38, which would double the amount we made from streaming of the album in this time period. Or if everyone used Apple Music it would have been £12,331 more." Los Campesinos:

I've got a black eye and a cracked or bruised rib, and a little wound in the shape of a star that will leave a scar. I look rough, feel terrible, and to top it off, I didn't even get them doing anything cool. I just fell over my own feet.

This is a wonderful and scary way of thinking about magic and demons.
