One of the fun things about running Bits & Mortar is encountering retailers who can't believe that it's free and based on taking the risk of actually trusting each other to be looking out for each other but... yep. That's really how it works.

Just a reminder. I'm always surprised how many people aren't aware of this. #Libraries

“This is the first time the Supreme Court has given its blessing to redistricting across the boundaries of four-dimensional space,” political scientist Jonas Neuhaus said of the decision in RNC v. Garner

Got in a long session of the ‘Draw Steel!’ @hellomcdm.bsky.social ‘Start Here’ adventure ‘The Delian Tomb’ on Saturday. Players kept on the edge of defeat in the Mages Tower by well balanced encounters with dynamic terrain. Out of the tutorial the mental load is high but I think we are getting there

So, I think people have the notion that I saw BIRTH OF A NATION was racist and that's why I want to remove it from the canon. That's not actually true. I kept hearing about how BOAN was the first this and the first that but as I started watching more silent movies, the math was not mathing.

The best time to read Earthsea is when you're eleven years old, the second best time is now.

Remember The Hobbit is about 15 guys conspiring to murder a billionaire because he stole too much money and then a sixteenth guy who was not even involved shot that billionaire because he just knew it was the right thing to. Class solidarity, you know? There also was a bear.

Folks!

This might be one of the most insane scandals in game history When Pokemon Go players scan PokeStops, theyve been unknowingly building a detailed visual model of the world which is being sold to a military contractor to build a no-GPS positioning for the new generation of unmanned killing machines

I know the ttrpg crowd has some deliciously original takes on magic, so if you're based in the north of England you should definitely consider writing a story for this anthology

OMG Aluna is coming to Riot!

He's making government fun. That is an amazing thing.

Biggest nod to the genre, I think, is allowing one player to be the main character and surrounding them with gorgeous brooding warriors they're not allowed to touch

The amazing York Helmet is one of only six surviving helmets from Anglo-Saxon Britain, and the best preserved! A Latin inscription bears the name ‘OSHERE’. The nosepiece is decorated with fantastic beasts! Found in 1982 by a digger operator in York. AD 770-775. 📷 me #FindsFriday #Archaeology

There's this rule in Swords Without Master that is kind of a big deal, because it breaks traditional GMing advice.† It's why I'm skeptical about #ttrpg aphorisms and give the side-eye to most anything purporting to be a universally good GMing tip.
