Would love if folks who’ve played my GMless games could recommend ;)
Every now and then I see someone asking for recommendations of a GMless game to play.

Well a bunch of us made a list, complete with explanations of why we thought each game was great, so you can decide for yourself.

I’m considering calling my almost finished version of Mourningstar an “ashcan” because that’s what it is, at least according to the way people have been using the term to describe TTRPGs. However, at the same time, I kinda hate the term because it feels like whimsy-baiting lol.

Ohh people liked this post! Thank you Bug! 💕🪲🕷️🐞🐛💕
THE GIANT'S BENEVOLENCE

If you see a Bug in your home that shouldn't be there, safely transport it outside. When you do so, gain a Bug Boon.

If something nice happens to you later, you've expended your Bug Boon. Say "Thank you Bug!" and acknowledge the Bug spirits.

I was scrolling through Jacques Collin de Plancy's Dictionnaire Infernal for fun images to use for Mourningstar and was jumpscared by this. The book is french and I didn't bother to translate it so I have no clue what the context is.

Apparently you can pay off a citation by doing 5 hours of community service BUT you have to pay 30 dollars to apply to do community service… wtf??? Government bureaucracy is straight up evil.
The Kafka vibes have escalated. They denied my citation protest but didn't tell me. Now I can't request a hearing because it's been over 25 days since they didn't tell me...

Also I highly suspect the "government official" telling me all of this is an AI 👿
I would love if my life was less kafkaesque.. I was at a job site with no parking and just got a completely unfair ticket and was told it’s my fault and nobody can help me. It’s feel like I’m two government officials away from being dragged into a quarry and stabbed by thugs with knives.

I need to manifest more cool opportunities in 2026. I have the talent but apparently not the networking and marketing skills lol.

Commission me to compose music or write stuff! Put me in your actual play! Collab with me on something!

What are your favorite classic artists that depict angels and devils? The spookier and weirder the better! I want more public domain stuff to work with for my space satanism game.

(I've already used a lot of Gustave Dore)

I got a really cute email this morning from some folks who did a LARP of Noblesse Goblige, my regency politics game about goblins. They sent a picture of everybody dressed up 🥰
