To all of you brilliant, aspiring game designers.
If you are writing the rulebook for your TTRPG,
have
players
read it
who don’t
know it.
Oh my god.
The number of great ideas smothered by their own poorly structured rulebook is far larger than it should be.
I’ll consult for free. Seriously.

@helloalexroberts.bsky.social For the Queen is AMAZING! I played 1ed at KublaCon, ran downstairs and bought 2ed immediately. I see unused art on the Patreon page, are these expansions? Is there any way to get the 1ed Queen art? The Red Queen is just too perfect.
What an excellent game!

Is there a CSPAN alternative? I'd love to be able to watch my government function, but apparently I need a "TV subscription" to log in. Does anybody know what that is? I've forgotten everything before 2005.

CORY BOOKER IS STILL GOING!!!
He took the floor at 7pm Eastern Time (4pm Pacific for us West Coast folks). He's been speaking for over 22 hours. If he' holds the floor for another 2 hours, he'll have filibustered longer than any other US politician, defeating the record set by Strom Thurmond, 1957

Is there an artist out there willing to donate a hi-res icon of a stylized, blue, raised fist? It's going in the center of a QR code pointing to the General Strike website. This is something to share broadly, to posterize, and flyer-bomb.

Can you remotely begin to imagine the absolute mayhem erupting right now if Hegseth was Kamala’s appointee? Even the same exact dude.
Chaos.
Off with HER head.
How could she be so irresponsible?
SHE should resign.
Unfit for the presidency.
It wouldn’t even be about him or his text.
WEEKS of rage.

If there are any folks in/near Oakland, CA, come down to Eastshore Park tomorrow at noon. I am summoning a congressional call party!
Current working title is Catharsis and Cookies (we'll have some!), but I'm happy to entertain suggestions. Come yell at the legislative branch!

Just ahead of the #MothershipMonth launch, I made a MoSh Madness tournament bracket for people to vote on their favorite Sci-Fi Scoundrel.
Just a bit of silly sci-fi fun. The update has a link to some PDFs, for folks who want to fill out their MoSh Madness brackets early!

Okay! Gonna crowdsource an NPC name and see how it goes.
This is the leader of a dissident group called The Flood, so the name should probably be water- or liquid-themed, but not necessarily.
They have hacking / data manipulation skills and they hide in worker populations using false IDs. [1/2]

The best part of being on BlueSky early is that I can talk about the module I’m writing for them and they’ll have noooooo idea.
BWAAAAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!!
Seriously, though, Sesh 0/1 is one week from now and I haven’t been this excited about a homebrew since… well, since last time. So, February.
