And this is the year I chose to quit drinking?

Runner and reader of TTRPGs. Forever GM. Recently went back to mini painting after 30 years away. Still rubbish. Used to play bass a bit.

She only did it the first Christmas after we adopted her, but Fawkes loved sitting in the middle of the tree.

I want to hear this one shouted across the park.

I quite like my 3D printer - prints miniatures for me to paint at a fraction of the cost of just buying them

Unfortunately my group just started a new Mage game, but if you ever decide to run a playtest I’d happily join. As forever-GM I don’t get to play much.

I suffer from similar thoughts. Running a bunch of FitD and PbtA games has loosened me up a lot on that, but it’s still there, nestled snugly next to my Church of England upbringing.

I bumped into the comedian Richard Herring in a Shepherds Bush Tesco as I was listening to one of his podcasts.

Eh. It’s ok, but it’s no Rentaghost

I watched that on holiday with my grandparents, in a drafty old caravan, on a black and white tv. I was 7. It explains a lot.

Looks like the world’s worst ventriloquist act

I did notice the presenters immediately moved on to the next item after the spot finished. They normally banter a bit about stuff after it runs. On this? Zip.

Draining the Tory party in very much the same way one drains an abscess.

The only thing I’m good at is poking myself in the eye, so you’ll indulge me if I crow about a really masterful eye poke.

There really must be a room somewhere in the halls of power with a big red lever that switches between “monster them into power” and “monster them out of power”.

I spent my 20s working in and eventually managing pubs and I can categorically state that unless you’re a well-known local nut job with a rep for violence, no pub in the world will turn you away
