Kickstarter and Backerkit gives you automatic share to Bluesky options, but I guess I gotta do a screen share for Gamefound. Was a bit on the fence about this game, but then one of the few reviews started a long section about House of Leaves and I was sooo in.

Picture Monday: Relevant website for Episode 26. Yes, it's literally Russian, but it's not a Russia episode. I am really exited about what's happening there. Well, and I still need to edit Episodes 23-25...

"Hi Support,
I am wondering how that happened. I put the QR Code on a poster, and the poster was up for 1 Day. it's rolled up in my office and I am in my office. How could anyone just have scanned it?
Did you just send invisible corporate gnomes?
Kind regards,
Moritz Botts"

Was looking at something new to watch with my kid on Netflix, and apparently Nimona is rated 18+ in my location 😳
Now gotta watch it alone to find out why.

They had an amazing collection of TTRPGs from the big series to very weird stuff, so of course I went for the weird stuff and found one of the 2 games I was searching for. To make it more topical, this is a Norwegian game, and supposedly the German translation has more material than the English one.

Picture Monday: another thing I got here in Germany is a copy of Rascal Year One, which collects a bunch of essays from the first year of @rascal.news . Good stuff. Adds editorial comments and an afterword. Could have included some info on when each article was published.
