Practicing with the some new PS brushes I bought. I'm pretty dang happy with them.

The great @bernietheflumph.bsky.social has turned in the final cover illustration for The Prison Pits of Larubia! Isn't it pretty? This joins the evocative drawings @perplexingruins.bsky.social did for the interior. Gonna be a good looking book! #ttrpg #osr #fantasy

Well well well... If it isn't my old nemesis AWS again.
And I see you brought Azure with you.

Proof copies for Disposable Future have been placed. With luck I should have a few copies in time for U-Con.

Wiard's Night Terrors! What a delight!
An apple orchard transformed into a haunted attraction park with a wonderful fair-like atmosphere. Five different haunts, including a hay ride and a 3-ad clown experience. Cool theatrical set-pieces. Super friendly admin staff.

PDFs for Disposable Future have been sent to backers! Hooray!
Next step is sending the print files to Mixam.

Ryan over on @theweeklyscroll.com and I were talking about how some folks promote themselves like cheap door-to-door salesmen.

As someone trained in branding, there's another way that's more rewarding and more fun. The approach I'm trying to get better at👇

Holy Katz.
I do believe layout on Disposable Future is finally done!

After almost 3 years, my OSE group finally milled all the adventure we could out of Evils of Illmire. Thanks to @leightonc.bsky.social for running a great game. Thanks to Spellsword Studios for such a fun module!
Next, we're on to Cathedral of the Crimson Death!

Time to see my favorite band, The Sword!
A band I feared was broke up for good!

A group image of my favorite fantasy characters I've played.
It occurs to me that most of them are pretty awful people. 😄

"I wonder if my RPG projects are unique enough" I think to myself as I purchase my sixth game that's "like old school D&D but dark and brutal!"

Escape from New York Borg.
Is that a thing?
Should I make it a thing?

People who use AI think that they’re skipping to the success when they’re skipping to the failure. You begin and end your life as someone who has not written the novel, you did not teach yourself to express what was inside of you, you died without making something that no one else could make.

I am proud of Disposable Future, but I will be happy when it's done and I can move onto projects that don't revolve around dystopias.
September 19, 2025 at 2:09 PM
Disposable Future is my cyberpunk game, but it occurs to me that it's also heavily influenced by 1980s "Mid-Apocalypse" movies like Escape From New York and a hundred minor imitators (Bronx Warriors, City Limits, etc.)

More art for Disposable Future.

this is, hands down, the best video I've seen on men's influencer content and it's not close either

It's coming together, yo.

I very much wanted Disposable Future to be a "serious, straight-faced" game.
But my basic nature got the better of me in some places.
