There was a time when I was growing up in the 70s and 80s (yeah I know… πŸ˜‰) when we could only watch them on a few channels that would run them, and usually Sandy Frank edits. But then video rentals opened so much more up, all the Godzillas, etc. MST3K really brought them back too, fortunately for us

Oh man, the Monster Island movies were the best, and lil baby Godzilla with his smoke rings. So campy, so ridiculous, so awesome. It’s no wonder, really, my adventures and campaigns have been kinda campy and goofy too 🀣

Honestly, the original and Gamera vs Guiron. When I was a kid we had the Creature Double Feature on Saturday afternoons on channel 56. I broke my collarbone one time and couldn’t get off the couch for days. I watched those movies back to back and 3rd grade me loved them and have ever since

While I am absolutely a fan of Isaac Asimov, his prediction about BosNYWash by 2014 did not come true, and New York with its iconic buildings shown here, is still a separate city from Boston. Other references that may have made you think they are the same are still fictional works.

The technology team at financial regulator CFPB has been gutted DOGE has gained an unusual level of access to agency data.

I’m sure it’s a coincidence the people looking into making sure that tech’s forays into financial systems were fired by Musk. Total coincidence

The Amber Chronicles by Zelazny feels very under appreciated, and I was surprised that so few people recognize it (and him) as important to the genre. Same with disrespect for Eddings in fantasy.

I am writing a one-shot in 5e for two goblins and "a fae". Of course my first thought is Faewild mischief, but I don't want to limit myself. So I go whimsy? Epic? Grimdark? Or the worst possible approach, a downtime shopping one-shot?

The "first they came..." poem gets quoted and quoted and quoted and quoted and you know what, we do in fact know who they're coming for first, right now, and that is trans people, and the answer needs to be "absolutely the fuck not, you motherfuckers," full stop.
