Been getting the itch to run an over the top pulp sword and sorcery style game. Give the players clockwork horses and they have to battle mercenaries mounted on cybernetic sabertooth tigers. 80s music Playlist included

Finally, a major media outlet will be headed by a true free speech warrior who got her start trying to get her professors fired

American Christians deciding the Pope doesn't know the Bible because he said immigrants are human is the perfect summary of the evangelist movement

President Trump says he is meeting today with Russ Vought, OMB director and "of PROJECT 2025 Fame," to discuss cuts to "Democrat Agencies."

This should be the whole point. It is an outright lie to vote for appropriations or legislation, of any kind, in a situation where the acts of Congress aren't really binding. It makes any possible "deal" worthless. The whole exercise is a sham. Dem votes would do nothing but legitimize the pretense.

Shit, I have a nearly complete community content thing I worked on from a few years ago for Pugmire. I really need to just edit it and get it out there. Not reason for it to just collect dust on my computer... I thought it got lost in the great hard drive crash of '23

BREAKING: Governor Pritzker calls for the removal of Donald Trump as President by invoking the 25th amendment. EVERY governor should stand behind the Illinois governor. Governor Pritzker also cited health concerns for the president. He is clearly not well. youtu.be/Dt4mrxNWQWs?...

Sometimes I look at my "unplayed" games books shelf and think to myself I need to just do a roulette (or even a random table) to pick a random game, run it for 1d6 sessions and move on to just get through the backlog lol

Stress-Free Eric Adams Spends Day Bribing Pigeons In Central Park

The president just told all of the military's leaders that all Democrats are evil and promised to send the full force of the military into Democratic cities to assault the "enemy within," and there's *still* a chance that Democratic congressmen provide the crucial votes to keep this regime running.

There seems to be a consistent pattern of games that list Twin Peaks as a source of inspiration as being good

People of Illinois, we need your help. Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.

Posting is great. Joining local orgs for causes you care about is better. Imo looking for your local Food Not Bombs is a great place to start!

Consider, however: be loud somewhere that isn't just social media.

Pritzker: “ICE is running around the Loop harassing people for not being white. Just a year ago, that was illegal in the United States. Now, ICE is making it commonplace.”

Trump on Mamdani: "He is going to have problems with Washington like no Mayor in the history of our once great City. Remember, he needs the money from me, as President, in order to fulfill all of his FAKE Communist promises. He won’t be getting any of it, so what’s the point of voting for him?"

I wish the new version of the Alien RPG was delayed solely for the fact that I wish it would contain the Alien Earth stuff

it's so nice to see what a functioning judiciary looks like "A transgender woman in the East African nation of Kenya has won a landmark court victory in which the judge not only found in her favour, but ordered the government to pass a Transgender Protection Rights Act." fuck yeah

No. Your friends don't secretly hate you. You're just dehydrated.

Only an administration intent on committing war crimes in the present and future would stoop to calling Wounded Knee a "battle" rather than what it truly was: a massacre of over 250 Lakotas, mainly women, children, and the elderly. 1/

#RealmsofPugmire Update 64: September 2025 Update www.kickstarter.com/projects/339...

This is why I get annoyed by the ride or die D&D people. If you like D&D that's good, it is fun. I get the "play something else" comments can be obnoxious and annoying.However, there are so many games created from so many walks of life that can enrich your experience in the hobby that D&D just can't

I think the online memes of the "ideal" D&D (or any TTRPG) character has lead to weird incentives at the table to have a fully fleshed out backstory or they're a "bad player." I suspect this and a dismissal of random tables is one of the things driving the use of Generative AI by players. /1

So, I do think gatekeeping hobbies to keep people out is bullshit, however hobbies and fandoms that do become mainstream become hyper commercialized right? Worse, we as a culture see owning the more expensive things as a short hand for being a bigger fan. I think we all kind of know this /1

If the FBI was still run by the normie Republican they appointed last time, there wouldn’t be a trust issue with most libs. You don’t appoint Kash Patel bc you care about the other half of the country believing what you say.

The crit system for Delta Green and Mothership are pretty great. I do think that's something I'd bring into standard Call of Cthulhu (especially a pulp game) where doubles crit. If the roll is successful it's a crit success and if the rolls fails it's a crit fail

Our newest episode of Werewolf the Apocalypse is now up! The packs have entered the nuclear strike zone that used to be Washington DC. The Wyrm reigns supreme from the nuclear and social fallout. YouTube: www.youtube.com/watch?v=G4sX... Podbean: abunchofgamers.podbean.com/e/werewolf-t...

Pritzker: "One of the reasons Trump wants to send troops into cities is bc he wants to be able to take control of the 2026 elections...if they've got troops in cities, & it becomes a kind of norm for people, then it won't be abnormal for them when they're going to vote having troops at ballot boxes"

Happy Bisexual Day to all hot, cool and tired AF Bisexuals! That's all of us, I think.

so many of the small indignities of daily life come from us being denied the ability to tell a rich man in a tech company to fuck off. minesweeper has microtransactions. paid services have ads. the opt out says maybe later. the drive thru is a broken chatbot. your car is an ipad. fuck off! fuck off!

Gonna just say, if it's this easy to protest against the monolith that is Disney. Then there is no excuse for people to be clinging to Harry Potter. Like, if the needle can be moved against Disney, people can make it move against JK Rowling. Stop the flow of money into her accounts,

I don't recall anything in the Gospels about the Pharisees having a taste for hummus.

If you're feeling like you want to support small and/or minority owned businesses as we deal with more and more unethical and awful behavior from major corporations, you can can great games from Coyote & Crow! Get them here: www.allplay.com/board-games/... #NativeSky #tabletop #ttrpg #rpg #games

"I have spent the last few weeks addressing and preparing for a military invasion by the President of the United States. No, I’m not a soldier or a foreign adversary. I’m the Governor of Illinois"

The Third Reich didn't last 1,000 years. Pinochet was ousted with a referendum. And the US isn't exactly dealing with the smartest, most competent fascists. Those of you insisting that 2025 is forever need to read a book, touch grass, go to therapy, anything other than trying to make others quit.

personally I care way more about this than jimmy kimmel but hopefully people who care about kimmel realize how it’s connected to mahmoud

Becoming increasingly clear we’re gonna have to build a parallel infrastructure for all the media we really love. The reason all of this is happening under the color of law is hyperconsolidation, dissent being traded straight up for merger approval, or fear of harassment.

I think the push to turn hobbies into content and potentially different forms of revenue has really hurt the TTRPG space in ways I'm trying to express in a way that doesn't vilify anyone trying to make "content" out of their games. Hell I do it for myself. However here are some of my observations /1
