They put one of yours in the hospital, you put out a statement about how disappointed you are. That’s the centrist way.

I continue writing new Delta Green scenarios to test on unsuspecting players. ZOONOTIC begins as a group of hapless local officials perform a court-mandated check on home of Clossey Baxter, a woman under federal investigation for exotic bird smuggling... www.delta-green.com/dc-drop-zoon...

My newest project is THE ANIMORPHS COOKBOOK: a podcast dedicated to the KA Applegate series. Each episode features a comically in-depth critical examination of the books that transformed 90s kids into lifelong readers and rabid anti-imperialists in equal measure. www.patreon.com/AnimorphsCoo...

Full Disclosure: I don't fully sign-on to the managed opposition theory of the Democratic Party. I don't think the Dems are in secret meetings with Mike Johnson, mapping out their next failure. However, no one can get pissy when people express that sentiment. The DNC has squandered all good faith.

Middle school Caleb — after I explained what a podcast was — would be thrilled to learn what I’m still obsessed with three decades later.

Today, check out the finale of our Dead Channels playtest of @adamscottglancy.bsky.social's HOLY WAR. We played over 11 feverish sessions this last Christmas. The op still makes for a blood-soaked nightmare of a holiday thriller, 25 years later. Listen to the whole thing at www.delta-green.com

These “I voted for him three times and I was lied to!” or “Guess I’m an idiot!” posts are pure SEO grift. Schadenfreude sells in the attention economy and stories generally. They want clicks from progressives and leftists: disenfranchised, scrolling, with very little hope on the horizon.

youtu.be/2e_T1GSLeTU?... Come and listen to our latest episode! We're playing Red Markets by @hebanongames.bsky.social , where it may be a zombie apocalypse, but you still have to pay the rent!

Ah, the old CoC trope of including 50+ rituals for mythos unrelated to the text. Do these supernatural creatures appear in the scenario? No. Are the spells and technology relevant? Also no. Will the info be accessible to players? Hahaha of course not. Anyway, here's 15K words of stat block

So we’re about halfway through our Delta Green: God’s Teeth campaign (maybe less than half if we decide to use the God’s Hunt scenarios in The Spiral)…. And this is the best pre-written module ever written. It’s an absolute bear to run and the bleakest shit ever but it’s SO GOOD.

We're celebrating our Ten-Year Podiversary with a festival of throwback links! For starters, here's where it all began: March 24, 2016. The first episode of our first campaign, playtesting the original #RedMarkets beta rules by @hebanongames.bsky.social. Welcome to Technical Difficulties!

This week on The Coffin Club; the end of our Red Markets 2e beta playtest! Deep in the Seattle PD headquarters, the Banks Family Takers scrabble to find the security room. One more floor. One more floor to victory. thecoffin.club/2026/03/20/b... We've got more to share in this thread, so read on!

This week on The Coffin Club: part one of Mr. JOLS, Truth and Consequences. Thank you so much to @hebanongames.bsky.social for putting the 2e beta out there, it's been a hell of a campaign and we have had a blast with it! Today, the dreams. Next time, the nightmare. thecoffin.club/2026/03/06/b...

One month to playtest Phase 2: Soldiers & Sorcery. Create your own Black Company veteran, flaws and all. Especially flaws. ("The Itch: You can’t pass up carousing, gambling, or whoring unless you take 1 Stress.") theblackcompanyrpg.com/the-black-co...

In The Black Company RPG, it's crucial to find ways to get rid of the Stress that comes with facing impossible dangers. The next playtest phase starts Monday with a new scenario. This phase covers character creation and magic.

New One Shot Episode! It's been out for four years, and there's still no game quite like Fae's Anatomy by @hebanongames.bsky.social . Fantasy doctors curing fantasy diseases with the power of science, logic, and romance!

Who's ready for Round 2 with @hebanongames.bsky.social and @thenerdyape.bsky.social? pca.st/episode/2274...

Actual Play Entertainment gave Red Markets 2nd Edition the red carpet treatment in their playtest. It's crazy to hear my game with backing tracks and professional production! The crew were fantastic players, and they really made the mechanics shine. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

Over 2025, Dead Channels produced 44+hours of actual plays and panel audio, plus 200 pages of new DG writing. Not counting conversion/editing work I did on Tyne's "The New Age," Glancy's "Holy War," and other upcoming republications. And not counting everything I've done on Red Markets 2E.

Dead Channels continues its run of @adamscottglancy.bsky.social campaign HOLY WAR Listen to the playtest for the new edition (+5 years of Dead Channels back episodes) with a delta-green.com subscription or at patreon.com/dgdc. www.delta-green.com/dc-drop-holy...

I get to play in a game of Fae's Anatomy tonight with twitch.tv/analog_amber! We're streaming for @projecthopeorg.bsky.social @ 6pm CST. We're close to the goal; here's hoping my silly melodramatic medical mystery takes us over the top. Stop by and support a good cause!

It's so easy. You pay for a subscription. We infest your ears with @hebanongames.bsky.social running a Delta Green game about Y'golonac and Gla'aki as written by @adamscottglancy.bsky.social. Win/win/win/impalement/win. www.delta-green.com/dc-dro/

Newest episode of my alpha playtest for RED MARKETS 2nd Edition is out at patreon.com/hgod. Feedback for the open beta is due DEC 31 2025! I'll begin revisions immediately next year, using the year's worth of playtest notes. The more the merrier!

There is a fifth wave of ska, beyond that which is known to rude boys

“No matter how long you soldier, fear always swells as combat nears. There is always the dread that the numbers will catch up.” —Glen Cook, "The Black Company" It begins: THE BLACK COMPANY RPG playtest launches today. Enlist now. theblackcompanyrpg.com

I'm running the official Discord for the game! Guess that makes me the Company "memelist" or "moderator" or whatever. I don't know the rank's name, actually; the last guy melted after a flying carpet dropped magic acid on him. Wait, am I an officer now? I wasn't properly onboarded....

Psst. #TheBlackCompanyRPG ... the playtest opens December 1. Sign up to be alerted: forms.gle/MbrHP53tSCeQ... Share and like!

anyway we wrapped up our campaign of @hebanongames.bsky.social 's Red Markets 2E last night with might be the most desperate encounter I've ever had in a TTRPG.

I wish someone could write a book about how cover ups organized between The New York Times, Epstein, and every foreign intelligence agency with a checkbook led us to the genocidal fascism running the US today. But NYT seems pretty good at keeping real journos outside. Guess we’ll never know!

I'm not sure new leadership in the Democratic Party is enough. I can't game out how the DNC survives as anything besides a political theater project. In name, the taint now runs deep and shameful. In tactics, any innovation is considered heretical and stamped out (see the latest surrender).

Test: if I call the Democrats managed opposition, will I get the usual "nu-uh" replies today? What POSSIBLE benefit is there to caving this deep into the longest shutdown ever, when a majority of the country rightfully blames the GOP, and a blue wave election just gave you a mandate to fight?

Null Project tried out Red Markets 2e with me. Check out the Halloween one-shot: youtu.be/RDyjWalInaE?...

The Dead Letter Bureau is featuring the first chapter of Performance, my #RedMarkets novel. It’s performed by the fantastic Fae Kells and based on one of the worst jobs I ever had! Give it a listen, just in time for Halloween! dead-letter-bureau.captivate.fm/episode/red-...

every single time I run @hebanongames.bsky.social 's Red Markets and the players run out of Will so they start a pointless and stupid argument to force Self Control checks on each other and blow off steam I sit back and watch with awe. especially if they crit-succeed so they feel better actually.

There are few uncomplicated joys in life. My favorite is glowing 5-star review of my work. A close second is a seething 1-star screed by a right-winger. The rush I get from fascist disapproval is tempered only by the need to wade through what passes for prose amongst those illiterate buffoons.

Sometimes I am not as subtle as I think I am when I try to guide players to a particular place when I am running a RPG. @hebanongames.bsky.social is not having any of it in this Fall of Delta Green session.

Editing Grace Under Pressure by Jeff Barber and John Scott Tynes. Playlist cycles over to water-level music-from-videogames. Vapor-thulhu. Now I want to run this in an aquarium, with the PA playing DK Aquatic Ambience as we all imagine getting eaten by Deep Ones. www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVOz...

Anyone run Outgunned yet? Thinking about giving it a shot and wondering if anyone had tips.

Red Markets.

I’m writing Red Markets 2e. A big part of the setting’s near future tech is “Ubiq Specs.” I worried how something based on the laughable Google Glass would translate to the new edition, as it was so silly as to be almost completely forgotten. Then Zuck reinvents the same failed prototype, but AI.

Panel from GenCon on the state of Red Markets 2e. Give it a listen, and try out the beta if you haven’t yet.

And now for some rare good news: @darkerhue.bsky.social joins us at Arc Dream as Production Director. #DeltaGreen #TheBlackCompany #ArcDream

Big news for Arc Dream! We are incredibly proud to have stolen @darkerhue.bsky.social from an amazing career with the US govt's most prominent science & defense contractors to help make games about, um, the horrors of the US govt and its science & defense contractors. arcdream.com/home/2025/08...

I’ve had a half-dozen people apologize to me after, of their own volition, reading or describing news in conversation. No push back, balk, or contradiction: still apologized for doomerism, pessimism, despair, and “bad vibes” (Deep breath) REALISM IS NOT PESSIMISM! OPTIMISM HAS NO INTRINSIC VALUE!

Getting to meet the legend himself, Mike Pondsmith, also felt like a lifetime achievement unlocked. As was having dinner with the game designers and podcasters who got me serious about writing games in the first place, @hebanongames.bsky.social and @rosspayton.bsky.social.

Hurtling down the highway. I look over to the passing lane. Driver is building his Magic deck, binders of cards splayed on the dashboard and the passenger acting as his hands. #gencon2025 (If we die on the way, I blame Commander tournaments)
