Just wrapped up my listening to this and I can see the disaster fires @misfit-playland.bsky.social's character Aster created (and is creating) all the way here in the Midwest.
Fun times ahead.

Jumped on this because it looks really cool!
We did it, Spacers! Thank you. Fully funded in 2.5 hours!
You've made it clear that you want more #DarkSpaceRPG!
Not only have we already met our funding goal, but we have also unlocked two stretch goals and are well on our way to Stretch Goal Number 3!
So what did we unlock?

I can't promise no one goes to jail.
We return to RuneQuest today!
Boldhome offers our heroes a brief respite after their journey, but Vargast is not willing to let his voice be silenced, as the Orlanthi warrior is inspired to raise it in the occupied capital.

I'm really enjoying this Trail of Cthulhu campaign set in a film studio. Interesting characters comprising crew and cast are being haunted/threatened by - currently - parties unknown. It's been low key creepy so far but I bet that's going to change soon.
Sophia makes a fateful choice in search of her missing brother. Join us this week for Silver Screams episode 10 on Thursday.
Catch up on the entire series wherever you get your favorite podcasts.

Plotting and planning my escape next week might mean taking an alternate method to PAX. Can't really put my faith in the airlines at this point, so it might mean a serious road trip to make it to Philly.
But I do love driving.

Darth Vader has assured Lando Calrissian that Princess Liea and Chewbacca will be left under his supervision in Cloud City and that's good enough for Chuck Schumer.

Far below the Dorchester another world has been revealed, one with a stage, a clown, and something deep within which must be experienced. Our journey through Impossible Landscapes continues.

Deep underneath the Dorchester, the stage is set and the audience is seated. From a far off place, strange music begins. What happens next is anyone's guess.
