Perpetually bemused. Born in the 70s, and still no clue what I'm going to be. (he/him)
The one thing I never really am prepared for is how much my brain wants to lie to me. F'ing day.

Really disappointed by @ipr.bsky.social. A book from a Kickstarter I backed and that they fulfill has been stuck in a UPS warehouse since the end of May. I contacted them after two weeks, and they promised to look into it. No more information since then.

Gonna talk for a second about Nazis, Republicans, DrivethruRPG, that Star Wars game, and more importantly, my grandpa.

Bear with me, the edibles are just kicking in. Might be a little thread.

🧵"So this is how liberty dies..."

Trump’s first 3 weeks have been a relentless flood of actions. It's incredibly hard to keep up.

I’ve gone through 69 actions & mapped out the pattern - showing how they fall within 5 broad domains consistent with authoritarian states 1/9

Für Leute die gerne Wahl-o-maten nutzen, probiert doch auch mal den Real-o-mat von Frag den Staat: real-o-mat.de. Selbe Funktion, aber basierend auf tatsächlichem Abstimmungsverhalten anstelle von Versprechen.

As someone who enjoys the latest Bundle of Holding offer (The Resistance Bundle, aka Punch Nazis! Bundle) I am wondering what other, thematically similar ttrpg and story games are around. Especially in the indie scene. Anyone here willing to share some titles?

The "You have no idea what I am." always hits me hard. This is one of the scenes in the book that manage to make me very emotional.
She wasn’t afraid of me. And it hit me that I didn’t want that to change.

After a surprisingly good, chill day I have been reminded of the state of the world in general, and humanity specifically. FML.

I have some morose thoughts today, driving them away with a specific book. As a reminder and thanks for enriching mine and many other lives - GNU Terry Pratchett.

My friend was part of the playtest, and since the game has been out to backers we have been using the final version. Adapted to use Google Sheets for the ledger, though. I also have an early-stage game of my own that also uses Goggle Sheets and the release version, with some other folk.
Sounds intriguing! Are you playing through the Ashcan edition?

This is still very true. A friend's game is in the final chapters, and we have played a few of them by now. This is a very deep and engaging game, that also has a lot of weighty issues at the core, deep underneath the cozy surface.
Yazeba's Bed & Breakfast is still one of the best experiences to be had in tabletop games.
