Has been a while since I have been presenting a Philofilm. If you are in Enschede tomorrow, come and join me for discussing old guys and transhumanism.
Poster for the event at Concordia (Enschede): The World’s End. I will do the introduction and a bit of discussion. The poster shows a pint of beer, of course.

Final preparations for running #YokaiHuntersClub by having a sushi sandwich and some ice tea at the local Japanese fast food joint. #Enschede #TRRPG
A packed sushi sandwich and some shiny green ice tea on a table with a cute Managua-style dragon. Oh, and a bit of printed edition of Yokai Hunter Club.

If you are aware of curious and critical students looking for a unique interdisciplinary #MSc Programme which combines #PhilosophyOfTechnology, #PhilosophyOfScience, #EthicsOfTechnology, #HistoryOfTechnology and #STS ...
Poster for the Open Days on March 20th at the University of Twente. You can see a colorful image of a person with a cybernetic hand. The colours are pink, purple and black. It looks a bit cyber-punk-ish. The text says: Visit us at the Master Open Day! MSc Philosophy of Science, Technology, and Society. March 20th, 18:45-19:45, University of Twente

If you are teaching 2nd or 3rd year BA students at #Utwente , please make them aware of the Master Fair on March 10, 2025. Too many students are still unaware of our brilliant MSc #Philosophy of #Science, #Technology, and #Society. More info: www.utwente.nl/en/events/20...
On the left there are some colourful bubbles highlighting the words "Philosophy", "Science," "Technology," and "Society." A sticker signales the date: 10 March, 12:00-14:00, Atrium, Raelijn. On the right there is a green column with states that the Master Fair is for all UT Bachelor Students.

Digital Loot! Just got my copy of Gary’s Appendix No. 7. It’s a bit sad that mail from the US has become so expensive that I buy most zines in a digital format by now, but I am pretty sure that I will enjoy it! This issue is all about caves! #OSE #OSR
Cover of Gary’s Appendix no. 7. A colourful Old School fighting scene with some fantasy archetypes and a giant stone monster.

Good morning! Slowly but surely I am turning my #dungeon23 project into inked maps. One day I will finish the beast called #DeathValley(18)69 💪🏻 #OSR #TTRPG #FrontierScum
Hand drawn map of an old school dungeon. The map is entitled “Ancient Structure” and has some caves next to some rooms and stairways.

Now, that was fun! Sadly I could only attend one day. We produced a #randomized #hexcrawl with our own titles, created the ruins of an alien city, and started to work on a #wargame where you can do anything, but fighting.
One of the randomized hexmap of a goblin village. The map consists of handdrawn tiles in various styles. Some of them are very colourful. We have goblins dancing around a burning trees, two towers on a hills, but also a beachbar. A vibrant alien landscape, which is the outcome of the previous workshop in Gent. The prototype of our non-war game: four miniatures representing the players defend a pile of bits (in the middle of the square board). The enemies are represented by wood blocks. Some d6 are also on the board, which is a bit strange, because the game is played with 2d6. A poster with the amazing programme of the workshop.

If you see this, post a vampire.
A chinese hopping vampire from the movie „Mr. vampire“ - The vampire is lit in blue light and his stiff arms aim at the viewer. His face looks rotten.

So, I attended with amazing #DIY #OSR Mini-Con #PinkPonyOfDeath where we enjoyed #Troika , #MörkMaus , #ShadowDark , #OSE et al. - and I took exactly one photo… 😅 Priorities, I guess.

Preparing for running my first session of #MörkMaus :) I hope that the players will find the awesome Dreihänder 🙃
A bag full of character sheets and markers. They all feature the typical Mörk Borg colours: Black and white with neon yellow and pink. An illustration of a mouse skull gives away that these are actually markers for Mausritter.

I had to steal this, because it’s so good.
pic of godzilla and text: Saying “my life stinks” when things go wrong is self deprecating, defeatist, and fills you with sadness. Saying “this isn't the life Godzilla wants for me” is motivating, makes you think about Godzilla, and reminds you that Godzilla cares about you.

The final days of #dungeon23 … I will somehow miss my daily task when I am done by the end of January (since I have some catching up to do…). The last level, however, will be a depth crawl. Hence, no map. #FrontierScum #DeathValley1869
An adventure map with 11 hexes numbered 20 to 31. Numbers 20 to 26 show some streets and walls in a terrain. The last four hexes are empty.
