weird ps1 game i found

"In that moment, the immersion, the *feeling* of play, was unlike anything I could have imagined a month ago, when I let my buddy cajole me into trying out Cataphracts in Space." OVER/UNDER: The Bleed Machine, a preview of thoughts to come. kattkirsch.bearblog.dev/overunder-th...

There's so much #OVER/UNDER to unpack everything right now, but thank you @sean.tuesdayknightgames.com for writing Mosh, the incredible @samsorensen.bsky.social for the game behind the game, and big dog @lukegearing.bsky.social for the module behind the game behind the game, and 1/

I just had to explain to my actual human wife that I'm busy watching a knife fight at a space wedding with my fake girlfriend and father figure. This is normal, I feel very normal #OVER/UNDER

Here's a really easy way to thank the Warden of #OVER/UNDER today, and receive awesome an Mothership module in the process! It's a fantastic way to continue your adventures in the Dream around your own table. I certainly plan to run my fellow Cardinals through the gauntlet!

It's no overstatement to say that #OVER/UNDER has been a profound experience that has given me pause, and recontextualized the hobby / passion / job that I've made a part of who I am for three decades. Excited to debrief with @samsorensen.bsky.social , and to stay in touch with my fellow cardinals!

That's CARDINAL Anthony Bourdain. #OVER/UNDER

no amount of state propaganda will ever convince me this man is my enemy

The truly maddening thing is that, unlike when I was a young man in science and the materials and engineering just weren’t there yet, the future is *right there.* The problem is *solved*. What’s holding us back is not just greed, but this bizarre nostalgia, an obsession with petro- masculinity.

Zohran at the rally for trans youth on february 8 ❣️ he was polling single digits.

This is so much more real than you can imagine #over/under

Here's a preview, so you don't have to take my word how cool these are!

I cannot express how cool these are to someone with a love for vintage zines. Eric has somehow genuinely captured their magic. There's a reverence to detail and texture here that's so inspiring. I'm privileged enough to be a small part of this, and fully insist you check these out!!

On this Halloween, a reminder that a sculptor included a Xenomorph gargoyle during the 1990s restoration of Paisley Abbey

Cosign, although I personally think the hermit's a decent hang if you're into the criterion collection

The friendest friend shape

four books to get to know me

This, this exactly, is why it's so incredibly important to leave your damn house and meet strangers. Say hello to people around you. I promise you, they are NOT MURDERERS. I am a queer woman living in the US and it's incredible to me, in the heart of bible land, now NICE everyone is! Seriously!

I was a strange little girl. Chun Li getting a fireball opened whole new avenues of weird kid shit

Here's something I wrote down from a book about advaita, "effort is not virtue, effort is not love, effort is not freedom". Now you have permission to take a rest, some monk told you so.

Define your music tastes in eight artists: GiGi Masin Meat Beat Manifesto Chris Cohen Zack Fox Cobra Man Automelodi Miles Davis Tame Impala

Seriously, check this out. Stella is incredible and we're privileged to have play modules of this high quality from such a skilled humble, generous craftswoman so readily available. Her work is just such casual genius, and I'd genuinely consider it a personal favour if you'd give this a look.

Update: Ive been going through stuff and testing/breaking things in this the last couple of days, and I think y'all have a real reason to be excited about this. Sam has set the stage for something potentially truly ridiculous here. All he needs is your participation and buy-in. Give this a shot!

referring to how anime characters sound as a "mid-pacific accent"

I don't know how Sam does it. These macro-games of his are a sight to behold. Seriously, the vibe is absolutely unlike anything else you'll play, save for some outlandish OG Free Kriegspiel ish - and if you know even a bit of what that sentence means, you need to join!!

Thank you so much for your kind words, Matt! It's a good day when I'm mentioned in the same breath as Castle Rat 🥰 Check it out!

Truly one of the best people I know. Check out this guy's artwork, his book covers and illustrations are incredible. Just look at my profile picture for instance! Love you so much Brandon! 💕

Yoooo this looks sick as hell. 100% my vibe. Also I'm posting this while on the phone with @peregrinecoast.press to see if he notices.

I'm putting together a team, a crack squad of mean girls to bully Jon into writing a whole novel of this

The world needs more of this energy, is support these folks over a mega chain any day of the day off the week, insane vibe coming off this

not a great look @moderation.bsky.app

What perfect album came out when you were 16?

10/10 am panicking on the streets of London

@evlynmoreau.bsky.social 's artwork evokes just whimsy and wonder to me, and it showcases her subtle wit so transparently, it's a perfect match for a Troika supplement, especially when it's this charming!

Funny business main, always

this iconic advertising copywriter named Kathy Hepinstall Parks died over the weekend and I wanted to share something from her website I thought Bluesky would like

Tomorrow is my birthday, and you know what I'd love to get from you? Either A) something you've written, or 2) a play report of one of my dungeons! Gimme something to read, please 💕🥹 katt-kirsch.itch.io

This game and this ad both swell with impeccable aesthetics and informed my young mind's notions of dark fantasy to this day. I remember wishing I could simply wander in that world, touch the stone, and really feel the fear of being in such a place. TTRPGs have helped me fulfill that fucked up wish.

Inspired by @scumbelievable.bsky.social 's watch of High And Low tonight.

so much for my shoutout of you in my song cycle

You ever just know you'd be good at something

every “ancient tradition” was invented between 1848-1870 and every “modern perversion” is so ancient as to predate writing
