When Derek’s Cairn adventure, Stag Lord’s Sanctum, comes out, it’ll be my turn to gesticulate bigger, stronger, and more erratically. The adventure demands it.
I went to PAX Unplugged 2025, played in/ran a lot of OSR game sessions, and had a lot of fun chatting with other bloggers, designers, and other very cool people within our little hobby.

part of what I like about Mamdani is his admission that housing affordability is a more complex problem than either building more housing or expanding rent control. You need to do both in order to protect the most vulnerable now and improve the problem long term.
