He's had more clubs than Tiger Woods and the particular honour of having been hired and sacked by Udinese twice in just over eighteen months. It's his tenth managerial appointment in ten years (not counting an assistant period at Juventus). This is a Watford FC managerial career path par excellence
Even if it is only for 12 league games, appointing Igor Tudor as interim manager is the biggest decision Vinai Venkatesham and Johan Lange will take at Tottenham.
There is no margin for error.

Trying what RPG to run next quarter. Too much fantasy and someone's running Star Wars so don't want to run Star Trek. So that points towards horror. I've got an Alien scenario half-written I could use but I just read Starve Acre so leaning more towards something folk horror. But I can't decide.

Having an off morning so watching a random Avengers episode.
A man in fancy dress with a giant pig's head. A little old lady killing people with knitting needles. Plus Bernard Cribbins. Feels very typical of my memory of the series.

8.5 episodes in and The Terror: Infamy is a weird beast. I found myself far more interested in the potential of the internment storyline than the horror aspect: the show seems to feel the same, spending quite a lot of time on internment stuff entirely unconnected to what is presented as the A story

There is an incredibly enthusiastic woman at this samurai exhibition at the British Museum. The staff are very polite but clearly aren't interested in her knowledge. I want us to be friends and talk to each other about things we love with little or no ability to gauge each other's lack of interest

The Speak With Dead scene has happened to almost every group I have ever played with (especially with me as GM, who used to always play the unhelpful witness in BVC advocacy classes).
Honestly i just want more of that D&D movie the entire industry seems to want to forget about because they accidentally made a film too charming and now people have experienced a pleasant time and have expectations
