Update: without giving any specific spoilers, the latest episode of Peacemaker confirms a fan theory that shows this show is also going very hard against fascism in its own way. I'm getting similar vibes to HBO's watchmen, the way they blindside the viewer with it.

Loving how South Park is going up against Netanyahu as well as Trump. But unexpectedly, Gen V is going even harder against fascism this season. Season 2 is less of a spin-off than a continuation of the most recent season of The Boys, and it is glorious so far. Is Hollywood fighting back? I think so.

If corporations are people, does that mean Johnson & Johnson can sue the the president and RFK Jr for slander? If so, I think they should do so immediately. Facts matter, and this is very likely to affect their profits. (Still not a capitalist, but I support using the tools that exist.)

This cat isn't angry at you, he's just very disappointed in your behavior. And rather handsome.

Neoliberals have always been cowardly, collaborator trash, agreed. As Dr. King once put it, they prefer "a negative peace that is the absence of tension, rather than a positive peace that is the presence of justice". Shameful and ultimately unforgivable.

Naproxen is magic. Ibuprofen, you are fired as of today.

17 Democrats are cowardly collaborator trash on this bill. Hold them accountable.

I'm not about to celebrate anyone getting shot, but y'all saying this will just beget more political violence can miss me with that shit. Political violence is an every day fact at this point, and Charlie Kirk helped create that reality.

It's not a one-shot, though. It's the first issue of a ten-issue miniseries.

I adore these pictures of your cat looking blissed out when you hug him. Please keep them coming.

You're missing the point, and showing your ignorance. That was considered a good rate for a freelancer on a tabletop RPG at the time, and it still is. Writers are undervalued in many industries, and that doesn't mean I got scammed.

A brain teaser from the vaults:

M R DUCKS.
M R NOT!
S A R! C D EDBD WANGS?
L I B! M R DUCKS!

(Punctuation and spacing added to improve readability a little.)

Really? Then try writing 30,000 words of a tabletop RPG at 5 cents a word. 15 times that rate seems more than fair to me.

I'm working on an idea about the recent Superman movie and its cultural impact. Should I just email it, or should I let you know here when I have more?

In no particular order...

Unknown Armies
Paranoia
Wraith: the Oblivion

If the so-called Old Testament matters this little to Christians who are looking for a message about loving each other, they should really just stop using it entirely.

After 30+ years of harping on it, it's nice to see one country taking Kevin Warwick seriously about likeness rights.

Cozy Cat Jam by Darkheart Games and 25 others Cozy Cat Jam: 28 items for $10.00

Cozy Cat Jam has already raised $670 of its $2500 goal for the Ohio-based cat rescue Alley Cats & Aristocats. My game Twilight of the Mouse Kingdom is just one of 28 included. You can get them all for a donation of $10.00 or more. All money goes to the cat rescue. Proud to be a part of this.

The stats for this game are:

Adorableness (social)
Cleverness (mental)
Nimbleness (physical)
Spookiness (supernatural)

To me, this captures the essence of cats in four simple words. I feel like this is the best I've ever done at crafting mechanics that fit the theme of a game.

I'm particularly proud of the tribes, secret societies, stats, and themed playlists I've put together for this game. While undoubtedly silly and whimsical, this is a world that feels lived-in. The game is also more than a little spooky, because have you met me?

Just finished a new game: Twilight of the Mouse Kingdom. It's about the post-apocalyptic yet adorable struggles of the cats of Disney World. TotMK is for Cozy Cat Jam 2025, benefiting Ohio-based Alley Cats & Aristocats. Systems use d6es and 4 simple stats.
