Okay so Luke has slightly misrepresented me here, in that I am sleepy and have a headache, and I am by no means locked in. The rest is true though.

Andrew & I are locked the fuck in, and y'all are not prepared for what's coming your way when this playtest packet drops. get braced for some fraught, bloody, weird ambitious character and community drama, all you sickos

Why do you get angry if you have to look up a word while reading. Does it also piss you off to meet cool new people at a party

I played 4 ttrpgs in the past 2 days. Very grateful that I have so much more access to the hobby than I did two years ago. One of those games was our ongoing Low Cantrefs game, and my Sapling has become a Problem for their family and friends.

I'm picking fights through the medium of game design.

Andrew is being characteristically flippant, but it's true - after at this point 12 months of working on this thing we have finally worked out how to distill the game's pitch down to a single, pithy, hopefully-compelling sentence. To celebrate, ask us anything!

People are calling Dark Ages a post-apocalyptic, historical fantasy game of rights claimed, rights denied, personal ambition, and community strife. And they couldn't be more right!

Happy Pride! 🌈✨ I've just replenished community Copies of The Admirer, one of the playbooks I wrote for Thirsty Sword Lesbians (and there are plenty left of The Little Red, too). I'm really proud of the design work I did on it, so please check it out!

It is a great comfort, at the end of a very tiring day, to remember that you have a playtest in a few days that you still need to prep for. Time to blow the dust off that project and remind myself how it all works...

Full Juneteenth schedule! The GMs this year are @maiasgameroom.bsky.social, @agentrush.bsky.social, @meishali.bsky.social, @prince-infidel.bsky.social & @kalebisbelak.bsky.social, all amazing and with equally amazing tables! And of course @kaoscryptid.asalwaysimani.com is hosting the whole thing!

Okay, so I have a sealed copy of Girl by Moonlight Special Edition. No PDF copy, but the book is still in shrink. Here's my thought: Pledge $30 to The Trevor Project and it's yours, I'll ship in US. Let me know you're claiming, I only have one to give. #TTRPG #PRIDE evilhat.com/product/girl...

I've been playing RPGs the past couple weeks. We had a couple sessions of my usual group that were missing people, so we started two separate games to play when we have different configurations of the gang present.

Girl by Moonlight is probably one of my favorite ttrpgs of all time. Highly recommend picking it up not just for the magical girl elements, but if you enjoy playing characters dealing with the impossible while having an incredible amount of sincerity and interpersonal depth!

TTRPGs are absolutely vulnerable to encroachment by LLMs, in part because the medium is necessarily an incomplete text, which the player/reader expects to have to complement with/through their act of play.

Pick up Thirsty Sword Lesbians and Girl By Moonlight as part of two massive bundles @drivethrurpg.com ! Get over 50 great games for less than $1 each and help support @outrightintl.bsky.social and @tabletopgaymers.bsky.social Start Gayming with Pride here: www.drivethrurpg.com/en/featured_...

I'll shout about this one last time, and encourage folks to check out this episode (and the rest of rascal reading club). It's a great project, talking about TTRPGs, and GMing specifically, through the lens of particular games. Great critical conversations about RPGs.

Play We Contain Solitudes

I'm in this one. Thomas and I had such a fun, wide-ranging conversation about Burning Wheel, and as invariably happens, RPGs at large. It might be that system matters, among other things? I really love this project that Thomas is doing, and it was such a delight to hop on for this episode.

if I seem militant about AI it's because a lot of my friends are writers, concept artists, QA people, etc, and they are the ones who are currently having their careers obliterated by that shit. not speculatively. happening right now. I don't see a need to be soft towards ppl who shrug at that

I got a good grade in podcasting this evening.

I had a lovely time chatting with Juliet! The noble and beautiful Noggle finally gets the attention it so richly deserves in this podcast. We also talk about poetry in games, and northern European evil water horse creature things.

Fun conversation this week on Beacon of Creation with @andrewgillis.bsky.social about the least-loved equine and its fantasy counterparts, the Donkey in Human History, and designing the experience of A Midsummer Night's Dream! www.beaconofcreation.com/2026/05/27/n...

I live across the water from these buildings, and I think this rules.

RPG bundle crowdfunds disaster aid in the aftermath of Typhoon Sinlaku www.rascal.news/rpg-bundle-c...

Played this over the weekend and legit was bawling at the end. Does exactly what it says on the tin with clever unobtrusive design.

are you compelled by the idea of tarot at the gaming table but haven't yet found a deck that speaks to you? Why not give Spindlewheel a try? Archetypal cards with poetic prompts will indulge your bleakest instincts and surprise you with their juxtapositions.

This is true

People need to play my game We Contain Solitudes. Melancholy, a time loop, and deep character work. Grab a friend and die together. sevencrowsgames.itch.io/we-contain-s...

Today in We Contain Solitudes: A closeted business woman and a frustrated new dad are caught in a time loop around an important land deal in downtown Vancouver, in 1988. Before time unraveled (forever?) they made peace with what they needed.

A Magical Girl story inspired (at least a little bit) by my game Girl by Moonlight!

Shouting out @wildwoodsgames.bsky.social's Heaven in The Dust as one of the best BoB #TTRPGs I have ever played. If you want to see what lean, directed & approachable GMless play looks like, look no further than this game of Greek Gods in the American Dustbowl. plusoneexp.com/products/hea...

Y’all, this is incredible. Already at almost $4,000 in the first two days. Thank you so much to everyone who’s been buying this already. Keep spreading the word. Still available through the end of the month.

Feels important to act in solidarity with folks who are getting hit with the consequences of the global burden that is the climate crisis. Please grab this bundle and you can play a bunch of very cool games (including mine)!
