TTRPG about me First game: The game my dad and his cronies were homebrewing in 1979 (1st published was AD&D, I think?) Last game: OSE Longest game: MEKTON Favorite game: Whatever I’m homebrewing currently Favorite mechanics: Castle Falkenstein Favorite art: Non-zero chance it’s gonna be Formoria

The Keyes Constant/Crazification Factor remains undefeated

Péter Magyar is also pretty shitty in a lot of ways, but I am still pleased with these results.

Dyw i byth yn defnyddio "moron" oni bai fy mod i'n coginio (yn Gymraeg, wrth gwrs)

My mum hated using the ADM-3A terminal that we had set to 2400 baud (with DIP switches!) because she could type faster than it could register. Why 2400 baud? Because that was the speed of the acoustic (!) modem she had on loan from her job at UCB.

Romance + Space Opera = Galacstacy Romance + Cosmic Horror = Weird Love Romance + Steampunk = Steamypunk

Got a great idea for a tv show: “A tech billionaire saves a dying LAPD officer, gives him plastic surgery to make him look like his estranged son and an AI and sends him off to dispense vigilante justice with a secret organization called the Foundation for Law and Government (FLAG).”

I hate living in a world where this sentence makes complete sense.

You're gonna want this book. @timnapalm.bsky.social has the historical goods and you remember how rock journalism used to actually get you excited? When Tim writes it, it still does. timnapalmstegall.substack.com/p/final-pre-...

Watch out, world. I have a working blender and a reasonably accurate Orange Julius recipe.

the hardest part about separating the art from the artist is how i seem to have glued myself to this macaroni picture

I was just served the most intensely bizarre LLM-generated ad for an impossible product on DuoLingo. Honestly one of the most deranged things I’ve ever seen.

formal proposal of a replacement for the vince mcmahon meme format

Anticipating—can’t say, “looking forward to”—the first time a producer responds to a grievance or claim by pointing to a clause in the contract that has been hallucinated by an LLM.

What about Spiny Norman?

This looks quite neat and also should have been called Gömb Borg, this is the pointless hill I have chosen to die on (Or maybe Dold Borg, I recognize there are nuances) (Also I know it was Den vilda flykten in Sweden, don’t @ me)

The voice of all D&D hirelings.

I am hesitant to create adventures or supplements for specific systems. However, I am ALSO a sucker for the Old-School Essentials project and have been itching for an excuse to write and produce an old-school module like the ones I gre up with. www.backerkit.com/c/projects/f...

I know it's a silly jokey joke, but people REALLY need to stop anthropomorphizing their boyfriends. "My boyfriend told me" your boyfriend didn't "tell" you anything. "My boyfriend thinks..." your boyfriend can't actually think or feel; just output a convincing simulation of it based on probability 🙄

“Autism didn’t exist in my day!”

every time i stop my dog eating the trash or garbage that makes him sick he calls me "the pawstapo" and honestly it's wearing thin

I know I’m not the first to say this but I’m becoming more and more convinced that the AI business plan is “pray that the Singularity happens before the economy collapses”

I miss when each class level in D&D had a different title

We go back to the Roman system, where there are twelve hours of daylight every day - so the length of an hour changes to be 1/12th of the daylight projected for the day.

One was a merchant marine and then a civilian instructor for the military, and the other invented Drivers Education for the Sate of California

Not entirely sure how I feel about an X-Files “reimagining” but Ryan Coogler writer/director and Danielle Deadwyler do stir something in my cold heart

Art matters. And what do we do with things that matter? We protect them. Here is information about H.R. 7661, a US book banning bill that explicitly targets books about trans people, and what you can do right now to help stop it.

"Friends" is a beloved American sitcom that aired from 1994 to 2004, following six young adults—Rachel, Ross, Monica, Chandler, Joey, and Phoebe—living in New York City. The show explores their friendships, romances, careers, and personal growth over ten seasons. (in before @charliejane.bsky.social)

A great many years ago, @greboguru.bsky.social decided to run a Dragonball Z game, Despite having seen quite a bit of anime, I had never seen a single episode of DBZ; it was understandably frustrating for Benjamin that I was unable to grasp what sort of character was appropriate for the game.

I know, I know, I keep talking about the Bloggies. But I built an archive of all the past Bloggies Awards. If that's your kind of thing, take a look! You can also grab yearly OPML files of all nominees for your RSS reader. bloggies.org

“Diane, 11:30 a.m., February 24th. Entering the town of Twin Peaks.”

tbh sometimes I get mad and yell at her and tell her she needs to eat a goddamn vegetable, so yeah I probably deserve the same

yesterday it was snowing and there were reports from whipple of three children (elementary school aged) being released in just t-shirts. haven watch was there to meet them. please donate if you can to any of the amazing efforts listed at standwithminnesota.com and to havenwatch.org directly

Obviously lots of other people have good things to say about this nonsense, but also (and with the caveat that this is an old person saying it) 50 years ago just wasn’t very long ago!

I painted a little guy!
