The creative pressure to try to run a rules lite RPG when the character sheets of my players look like this is a tremendous weight. Falcone alone apparently starts the game with 20 mongooses and a falcon

For spooky season I grabbed a bunch of DVDs from the library and headed to the woods!

I may give some further thoughts on all of these movies after some time to digest them, but here's my first one-man movie fest!

Adding this fun fact to my ice breaker repertoire: I am only 1 of 4 people that watched this 70s Christian film on Letterboxd. And the VHS that was on repeat as a kid. I have to keep those numbers low so it remains interesting. But this wasn't one of the big ones like "A Thief in the Night"

Tentative plans for this weekend:

First Annual Blane Witch Fest.

I'll be camping in the woods alone with a pile of horror DVDs to watch while eating fall snacks for a day and a half.

Making bookmarks because I lost the last ones I made is one of the only certainties in my life.

Also, I found out that the Grandpa in Ben 10 wears the same shirt as Dale from Chip n Dale Rescue Rangers. A guy at Disneyland once pointed it out and I had no idea what he was talking about. I've never felt so old.

We're headed to the mountains and my kids immediately clocked that I dressed as Dipper from Gravity falls. My wife doesn't watch the show and, for my own amusement, she can not find out.

Working on ideas for a twitch stream:

Sponsored solo-playthroughs while watching movies. The stream ends the SECOND I start crying.

Tier 1: Gentleman Broncos
Tier 2: If anything Happens I Love You

Unboxing Knitting Circle from @flatoutgames.bsky.social !

Full transparency here, there's a point in this video where I regret having committed to the bit too hard.

Anyway there's at least two more of these in the pipes.

Much to the chagrin of my wife, I was preparing my audition for that DCCU canon Batman role last weekend. (I am wearing shorts in this picture) @jamesgunn.bsky.social

The gang going to a restaurant called "The Crab Net of Dr. Calamari" in Scooby Doo Mysteries Incorporated is phenomenal.

A consumer grade camera with a disposable flash cube that also uses memory cards instead of film?!Scooby Doo Mysteries incorporated is on that next level retro futurism!

🎲 I’d be really surprised if Logic & Lore lasts past Day 2 of #GenCon2025 — it’s almost sold out already!

It’s claiming the BoardGameGeek ratings! 🧠✨

My sub $5 lunch break thrift store haul. I almost grabbed The Treasure of Sierra Madre, which I watched solely BECAUSE of the UHF reference, but ended up loving. But that disk was all messed up.
