This short video from @starwarsexplained.com is a great (double)take on the Star Wars stuff in yesterday's football broadcast. ☺️

In these troubled times I'm grateful to Alex and Molly for #StarWars videos like these.

What's high-trust trad? Look at the gameplay (and only the gameplay) in these terms. Trad play is high-trust when gameplay centers on the PCs creating and implementing their own solutions to problems.

It's a very _pretty_ snowpocalypse, but, definitely dangerous. Hope everyone's staying as safe as can be. 🥶

This is the best scene in the whole movie, marking a change in the action. Rick starts to stick his neck out. #Casablanca #TCMParty

I couldn’t find a mini or toy I liked for my Challengers of Vanth party’s Damnation Van so I designed my own STL and had one of my players 3d print it. I just finished painting it.

Behold the Squelchers of Vanth and their Squelchwagon!

"Dream Town" was my favorite poster above my desk for a while, a variant of one of my #fantasymaps showing how the original image bleeds beyond the borders of the published image, and transitioning from finished to raw vectors.

After multiple scraps+re-writes, I settled on a final plot that I'm currently running for my Sunday group. This necessitated a title change and a revised cover!

I give you: The Forbidden City of DJM-KHA-TAH!

With special guest appearances by Thrazar, Sir Chicken, Baltor the Brave, and many more!

Happy New Year to all 🥳but remember, if you're in a part of the world where it's already 2026, be sure to mark any spoilers for those of us who haven't got there just yet. 😮

I love RPG writing for a lot of _good_ reasons, but also:

A part of me likes RPG writing because, by and large, the readers' tolerance for corny jokes is pretty high, and I need that.

Despite the exciting title, it was just more pages about regular-size Conan. 😣

Walked past Summer Glau, said "Summer! Hi!" She smiled and said "Hi!"

I'm still unpacking the layers of that, years later.

Bryan Batt once handed me back my hat, which had fallen off the back of my chair while I was eating at the Gumbo House in New Orleans.
Right folks. Feeling rather down at the moment so bringing back an oldie
