Wow, this made me want to drink water... and buy stuff I don't need.

To make French Cinema: Don't focus on the event. Focus on the mood before the event, then focus on how the mood is ever-so-slightly different after the event.

They could be trying to make ice cream floats.
They could need to use a bridge to traverse a moat.
One could stand on the other, pretending to be a human by wearing a coat.
They could steal a boat.

If we're getting rid of the penny, why can't we just go ahead and move the decimal place over one? Let's ditch the nickel and the quarter and bring back the 50-cent piece. When we ditched the half-penny, we moved the decimal place.

Let's make ten-and-a-half dollars $10.5 instead of $10.50

I do hope you mean you're interested in dismembering your players' characters, my good sir!

At present, my path forward looks like writing OSR-esque adventures aimed more at the indie design space. I airways hated adventure modules until I saw the best the OSR had to offer, and now I'm obsessed (but not impressed with D&D- stylized rules).

COSR (Cosier OSR) by Quasifinity Games OSR-style exploration and problem-solving without the violence and horror.

Yeah, I came to the conclusion I didn't need to worry about it. At the time, I was trying to figure out the OSR, now I'm just taking the things I like from it and not bothering with everything else.

1 thing that came from this is:

I'm not super duper sure which game you're talking about. Kaern is on developmental hiatus and The Cubies is up on my Itch. I'm not sure what other games I talked about on there but, knowing me, I probably have very little to show for it other than some google drive and notebook clutter! 🤠

099. Andrew van den Houton's Offspring (2009) <p>Sorry about the previous audio version. How's this?</p>

John and I reviewed Offspring, the movie that set the wheels in motion for @luckymckee.bsky.social's The Woman. We grumble, we cheer, we wax, we plug. It's our 99th episode, and boy do we have a banger lined up for episode 100!

Sonic Slugger is dripping with win sauce

Definitely some kind of off-brand, copyright-free lightsaber-esque rig. Laserball Bat?

Exactly. I want my eulogy to say "he didn't finish anything and he had a great time!"

Nothing like a new ttRPG project to distract you from all the unfinished projects you should be working on instead!

The demand to thoroughly vet everything is impossible, especially of countless micro-creators. It's the privilege of being consistently bored that affords people the opportunity to watchdog the entire notable population of a niche hobby.

“We’re aggressively running down every lead” - Alethea Duncan, FBI assistant special agent, New Orleans.

As a person who makes poor word choices when speaking, my sympathy to Alethea.

As a human, my sympathy to all harmed by the attack in New Orleans.

Fuck hate.

Matteo is a treasure!

There is fun to be had and ample value at each of these levels, as long as you don't get stuck in any one level and freely swim up and down as the fun takes you.

In 2024, I watched all 38 Godzilla movies, played way too much CS2, and finally switched to Linux over the holidays.

I'd rather have a banana hammerin me than a hammerin banana knee!

Holly Golightly tossed the cat out of the taxi and I experienced more narrative emotional turmoil than any film had made me feel in a long time. #filmsky

I caught an episode once, it was in the middle and I had no idea what was going on. I Abaya wanted to go back and watch it thru.

Is that Big O?
