I need to watch more. The premise is great but after one episode I was not digging the MC. I hope I'llvibe with her more as the show goes on.

CoC is also very popular in Japan, it was, and may still be the #1 TTRPG there.

"Oh, s#*t" time was way underestimated or not factored in at all.

I'm not mad, I'm just saying that I'd rather my stuff show up way early if things go well, than the countless updates that detail that XYZ went wrong. Fecal matter occurs, I get that, and estimates are just that, but when 12 of 15 outstanding KS are a year or more overdue, I think perhaps the 2/

me beyond belief. Congrats Mike Pondsmith and @rtalsoriangames.bsky.social a long overdue and much deserved accolade. /3

But Mike was the first or nearly so with so much in TTRPGs, the life path comes to mind. Anyway, I can recall my elation when I found out in 1990 that Mike was Black in a time when players and GMs who looked like be were very rare. To find out the maker of one of my fave games was Black thrilled 2/

occupied a villain about to die to highlight their hubris, see the staircase scenes in The Untouchables and Disney's 1993 Three Musketeers. Anyway, like always be skeptical of always and never they're often not so assured as those who use them make out. /3

first year film school rule of thumb, there are many exceptions. The dynamic can be inverted as in Kubrick's the Shining where although higher and ostensibly giving orders Shelly Duvall's character doesn't have the power in the scene. The higher place on stiars can also be 2/

And I know BDave is aware it was done to him, I call it out as done for people who claim it just happened, as if there was no intentionality.

So sorry, this was done to you (and let me be clear, it didn't just happen, it was done), and glad you spoke up!

"You know, the very powerful and the very stupid have one thing in common: they don't alter their views to fit the facts, they alter the facts to fit their views." The 4th Doctor, "The Face of Evil Part 4. To be clear, that's directed at the people the "Twain" quote is directed towards. /4

of research returns no evidence that Twain said or wrote anything resembling this phrase. In a world of misinformation read as fact, everyone needs to be careful about their facts. Any way here's a quote people can verify from someone who though fictional is still rather wise. 3/

the thing then it's likely a false attribution. Even if you have a source, you should follow up. The same is true of any quote but the four names above have a scary number of false attributions. Many variants of the above quote have been attributed to Twain, as with many other quotes, but a bit 2/
