An all-too-common mistake is inferring the sexuality of historical figures based on contemporary standards that didn’t apply back then. For example, in the 1970s it was normal for a cop, a biker, a Native American, a construction worker, and a cowboy to be friends. It didn’t mean they were gay.

Boundless Space: Making the scary monsters of the Eridani Belt today. I'm thinking that space combat will be much like normal conflict in Boundless, but with the addition of vast space ranges, multiple actions for a crewed ship, and of course, torpedoes and boarding!

Brush Burial: Gutter World is OUT NOW.
it's a lite immersive sim with tightly interconnected levels, a melee combat system based on positioning and counterattacks, and almost a hundred cosmetics to unlock.
you can get it on Steam, and play the demo there as well.

Duskpunk, a Citizen Sleeper-like with shades of Dishonored and Blades in the Dark is out now!

I played it prerelease and I think Sleeper fans will get a kick out of playing something similar but different…
My survival RPG Duskpunk is OUT NOW on PC!!

The war left you with two assets: your life and your sanity. Keeping both will prove a challenge.

xcom I think had a rogue like sensibility before they were big, when the expectation is failure and the game repeatedly throws almost no-win scenarios at you so that when you do magically pull off a miracle turn you feel like a tactics god and you remember how your rookie saved the day. xcom baby.

The US wasn't the only country to pin an entire moral panic on tabletop RPGs. We spoke with players in Brazil and Spain about their own bookbound boogeymen.

on monday the regime was going to revoke existing passports. yesterday they were going to allow all already-issued passports to remain valid til expiration. today it’s back to revocation. yet we’re called hysterical or wreckers for criticizing the politicians supporting these policies
Update: The State Department has once again changed the language back to saying transgender people's passports will be valid "until they are invalidated pursuant to federal regulations."

You mean the company that's currently being struck by its workers and the company that's currently being boycotted because of its terrible DEI policy rollbacks? Why not just call this the Chocolate Mint Racist Scab Frostie?
Beginning Monday, a Frozen Peppermint Hot Chocolate drink will be available exclusively at Starbucks cafés inside Target stores.

The chains are hoping the drink can drum up excitement from customers this holiday season.

have a silly idea of doing an animated setting for a dungeon crawler. instead of humans and elves you get to be a critter, or a muppet, or a 3d ps1 thing. the focus is on the horror of animation. mutating. mutilating. just gross gore but there's no blood. just stuffing and stringy claymation. idk.

Brilliant stuff, here. Although, if you're planning to play in Caverns of Thracia, maybe avoid this as it gives a lot away. If you're interested in dungeon or adventure design, a lot of great info is to be found here.
