I wrote about the ubiquity of guilds of thieves and assassins in AD&D, why they might declare war on outsiders or each other, and how you can (& why you should) get the player characters mixed up in the middle! #AD&D #OSR

If you follow me you know how annoyed (too soft a word) I get with the superficial and misplaced criticism that Cyberpunk (big C but also little c) isn't "punk" enough. This essay goes at that criticism as well as I've seen it.

A comment on itch reminded me of this idea for creating #TTRPG dungeons I had a while back. I still think its neat and I don't think I've actually shared it here on bsky. So bsky.. meet Crossword Dungeons! Do a crossword, use the answers and designs as inspiration for the rooms, get creative!

38 years ago today: The Next Generation's first scene🖖 "Captain's log, Stardate 41153.7. Our destination is Planet Deneb IV, beyond which lies the great unexplored mass of the galaxy. My orders are to examine Farpoint, a starbase built there by the inhabitants of that world." TNG is 40 soon 🤯

If you see this, quote with an image from a game that released the year you were born.

The flea circus celebrates with me! 65 hours and many deaths later, I finished Silksong. 😌 Just in time for Hades2 and Final Fantasy Tactics. Yes, I‘m too lazy to do those missing 2%. 😬

My most millennial take is that datamining, theorycrafting and lore theory videos have created an environment that derives people of the fun of discovering things for themselves.

Some of you care more about systems than people and it's why you always be vulnerable to fascists and those who push anti human ideologies. People matter. You need to tattoo this on your soul or none of this matters.

I could watch this all day. S P A Y C E! 🙏

I am obsessed with this guy on Instagram who makes ice cream using different kinds of trees, then he also makes a spoon and bowl out of the same kind of wood, and the whole time he teaches us about that specific kind of tree?? It’s so cool?? x: www.instagram.com/reel/DPHvnfR...

My lawyer @prismaticwasteland.com has cleared me of any liability for sharing this meme edit I made:

Using ai for brainstorming is hilarious and pathetic, bro. What, you can't tap into your brain meat and whip up tornadoes of lore? Hurricanes of world building?? An amalgamation of tsunamis crashing weird scattered shit ashore??? Skill issue.

THE HYPOCRISY IS THE POINT!!

since we're now in Garden Wall season, I am once again sending out this post into the autumnal air

HEY YOU! Do you remember how online art tutorials used to be back in the mid 00’s? WELL I MADE ONE!! And its on MY website!! NO clickbait! NO filler talk! REAL drawings! It’s a tutorial on how i draw guidelines and construction lines and apply it to forms! mirre.neocities.org/posts/2025-0...

Maybe not in MB, but I want to get this to the table, once it’s here. 👀

“I use it for brainstorming.” is quickly becoming my most hated pro-AI statement. YOU TOOK YOUR BRAIN OUT OF THE EQUATION. THAT IS NOT BRAINSTORMING.

43 years and I've still never seen any vision of the future as breathtaking and unique as this movie. Which is crazy when you think about it. youtu.be/RPW7kp0VmWA?...

Ink studies I made based on the paintings of Caspar David Freidrich (1774-1840). I started these inks back in 2023; it'd been several years since I'd drawn regularly, and I was feeling stuck as to how I could get back into the swing of creating. (cont)

Artists! Post your hot men art! 🔥 Or else 😡

After reading Le Guin's Earthsea I can not read fantasy except Dunsany, Borges, and Calvino

I realized I don't think I ever posted this blog post on here! It's a collection of dumb shit I've made for my campaign over the years that I don't need mechanically or whatever but I still made for fun.

A good post. I sometimes think megadungeons have a bad reputation, like they’re an antiquated framework, but this article does a great job succinctly indicating why that’s not the case.

Happy #Bisibility Day to those who celebrate. 💙💜❤️

Apparently a lot of ppl needs to hear this #bskycensorship

You should still check out our latest adventure A Feast for a Sphinx!! evlyn.itch.io/a-feast-for-...

I should probably do occasional self-promotion I made a system-neutral supplement called Procedures to Discover the Path Ahead. You can use it to make maps (or point crawls or paths) that are semi-random, where landmarks change as you travel seedling.itch.io/procedures-t...

Oh this is gonna be a good read 👀

Missed out on pledging for the Vaults of Vaarn 2E Backerkit campaign? Now mocked by your friends and colleagues? Spouse no longer interested? Disrespected by small children and animals? ALL THIS CAN BE FIXED. Pre-order in hardback today. vaults-of-vaarn-second-edition.backerkit.com/hosted_preor...

"Why megadungeons?" My pitch is that they are a campaign format that concentrates ideas, maximizes novelty, uses familiarity to advantage, and can be run in 2-4 hour sessions. Plus, between Silk Song and Delicious in Dungeon- everyone knows what they are! icastlight.blogspot.com/2025/09/why-...

“Have you found those strange statues from the ruins? The ones that are oddly warm to the touch”.

Gonna go even further: don't refer to it as "consuming media" when doing this. You aren't a consumer - it's not a product. You read books. You look at art. You watch movies and/or videos. Be careful about word choice. Reject "consume" and REJECT "CONTENT." IT IS ART. YOU ARE ENGAGING WITH ART.

Got to sell these books cause the $472 to print them is totally dragging me down - so maybe buy a small indie game if you haven't yet Thanks! That's very kind, now I can begin crawling out of the hole perplexingruinsshop.bigcartel.com/product/sain... perplexingruinsshop.bigcartel.com/product/gnome

I need GMs to stop comparing themselves to Matt Mercer or Brennan Lee Mulligan and start comparing themselves to 12th Century Ming Dynasty Poets

Bsky's new TOS says it alone has the power to determine whether a fictional drawing shows consent Demand that they REPEAL this harmful and misguided rule and to give us tools to protect creative freedom instead! Post your porn with the tag #bskycensorship Demand bsky listen to its users

Fuck your app. I want to be able to visit your website and do everything I need to do there. Apps are for specific functions, the way computer programs used to be.

If you want to push back against censorship, here’s some actions to take. Censoring *yourself* is not the way. Please listen to those who are most affected (nsfw artists) and what they’re asking us to do which is not to be silent!

Finally arrived in Act3 of Silksong, after 50 hours. Time to get my ass handed to me even more, I guess. 😬
