With yesterday’s episode the last before we take a break until 2026, there is no better time to start watching The Last Starmarked.

There’s 16 episodes, all an hour or less plus there’s a monkey. That’s a sweet deal if you ask me.

I know there's a lot of eyes on Carved from Brindlewood games right now, but I just wanna say I can't wait for you all to arrive in The Lands Remaining. Holy fuck, honestly.

Given that after a lot of folk have now seen the QQ video and have since found @thebadspot.bsky.social youtube with the Public Access actual play it is worth sharing this again. Watch an excellent AP and do some good.

there are a lot of reasons why I don't do "give up X food for Lent" anymore - partly a general resistance to toxic diet culture and food moralizing in general, but also because it's never once spiritually enriched me as a person. I gave up all caffeine in college, TWICE, and it made me an asshole

Oh, man. Tom Noonan died? His performance as Francis Dolarhyde in Manhunter is one of the most terrifying, mesmerizing I've ever seen in a film.

This game deserves EVERY bit of hype.
New Quinns Quest video!! 📺👻🌵

Public Access by the Gauntlet is razor sharp, powerfully strange and enormously thought-provoking. My players are still daydreaming about our campaign, even though it finished six months ago. I think your players will too.
