Aging collector of TTRPGs, History and Occult(ish) stuff. Complimented by being called 'weird' and guaranteed to look at any subject from a unique (and usually annoying) perspective

Just got told off by my family, while watching a 'Get Me Out of Here' celebrity doing a tandem parachute jump out of a helicopter, for pointing out that, if he kept nodding his head madly on the way down, he's likely to knock out the person he's strapped to, and end up plummeting to his death..

Hate doing this, because everyone is skint, but Oz is the only important thing in my life and I'm too broke to cover his additional surgery. If you'd like to help, please use OZVET20 at checkout on fenrisgames.com/shop for a nice discount or ko-fi.com/fenrisgames if you don't need toys.
Thankyou 💔

it hasn't helped sell any mags but it appears our nonsense on here has just pushed our account over 5K 'followers', so let's embrace that as some kind of achievement!

I think plenty of women (fictional) have already pulled off Bond (also fictional).

First ever trip to Chorley. Lots of independent businesses, nice selection of pubs and eateries and loads of charity shops. Shame Bolton can't do the same...

I bought the humble bundle Xcrawl bundle, and it came with a 50% off voucher for the print+pdf Crawl core book. I tried applying it to the item on the UK/EU website, and it said it didn't recognise the code. /1
