I can't believe Rob Weiland is gone.
You might not have known him BUT: read a Forbes rpg article, enjoy Star Trek Adventures, love the Fate games scene, or watch/attend charity games at cons? That's just a small piece of his impact.
He was also wonderful human being who will be missed horribly.

Playtested my new game this week. It was an awesome success. It needs some refinement and definitely some GM instructions to help new GMs facilitate play, but altogether when players want to play more you know you've hit gold!

So, a personal mission I want to write for Baroque and Palaces deals with Inquisition agents coming for David Hume when he was finishing his book in Paris (1734). In historical game design Is this a step too far?
Hmmmm.
Hmmmm.

I've ended the GoFundMe for Starbuck's hospital visit today.
Again, thank you to everyone who donated. It meant so much to know we have a community that surrounds us with love and lifts us up in moments like this.

I am in the middle of hammering out a time to record an AP of Cosmic Corsairs. So, stay tuned for that over the next few weeks.
The fine folks at @rookandrasp.bsky.social will be helping out with that.
Regardless of my AP, you should check out their awesome AP videos for all sorts of cool RPGs.

Hey friends,
I’ll be starting up a Go Fund Me for our pup, Starbuck. She’s been in the hospital now for almost 24 hours and we need help. This is our baby, adopted after we found her as a puppy and had been mauled.
Now she’s 8 and struggling. #help #gofundme #charity

Things you'd learn if you read Baroque n' Palaces:
Venice was home to the buying of musical compositions and printing music, and composers would travel to sign deals; their compositions then performed on stages across Europe.
This was the proto-concept of a record label! Lean history thru gaming!
