The worst part about going through old blog posts is coming across so many game ideas that I never did anything with. Then thinking, hey I could do something with those now. Falling down that rabbit hole three or four times tonight.

I've got six, but they'll be posted on my blog tomorrow.

So frames in html are depreciated now. Which is good because I really wasn't looking forward to relearning all that. But iFrames are in and they look a lot easier to do. So that will be what I'll be working on next.

I've been enjoying myself over on @neocities.org again, doing old style html webpage building. This time I've built a page for my little #ttrpg business. Figured Truly Rural could use something like this once again. trulyrural.neocities.org

Let me be clear.. EVERYBODY who has admin or mod privileges in ANY discord server that is even remotely adjacent to gamedev needs to @ everyone about what's going on, and they need to do it YESTERDAY. More ppl got caught up in this, coulda been avoided. Dont click links from ANYONE w/o interrogation
@rittzler.bsky.social (creator of Pseudoregalia), has had their Discord and email hacked and is linking to a virus in disguise. If you see anything linking to a game called "Furfall", DO NOT engage with it. It's not made by Rittz and isn't a real game (it's a Remote Access Trojan) DO NOT CLICK IT.

The current definition of 'zine' the in the #ttrpg community seems to be rather different than the one I'm used to from the 80's and 90's. What is the current definition that most folks follow today?

Help us whoop this fucking AI slop garbage merchant.

#iHunt currently has 436 votes. It has 320. About 37 hours remaining. They could do another bot rush.

So let's blow them the fuck out.
We were in first place in this film award voting.

A film made purely with AI just netted over 150 votes in 12 hours.

Now it's personal.

Please. Help us kick this THING's ass fair and square. ART FOR ARTISTS.

The ONLY thing I miss about smoking is having that excuse to walk away from people for a few minutes. Because it's just seen as rude to say "I need a break from you all for a bit" to people you normally like when they are being a bit much.

Thinking of compiling my #cyberpunk stuff into a zine like I do with the horror stuff in Clandestine Societies. But I'm trying to decide on a name for it. 'Final Stage Capitalism' is one of the names I thinking of. Does sound like a good name to you?

Yesterday was our traditional Die Hard viewing, tonight is our traditional Chinese take out meal. We used to go to a Chinese buffet and eat, however the one near us had their prices soar and the quality sink. So we've been dong take out now.
