my indie ttrpg opinion that might get me beaten to death in an alley outside a zine fair one day is that a significant number of them aren't 'games' at all. they're toys. which is fine! and actually they might get more of the kind of thoughtful assessment they deserve if they were reframed that way.

(This is an aside but I think congress needs to legally declare you can’t be called a podcast if you release or promote your episodes with video)

Yes, that’s immersive. It’s simulating the experience of playing d&d with a friend of a friend who showed up to castle ravenloft playing Snowjob Bananamonger.

Microsoft is providing assistance to the Israeli genocide effort through Azure, a platform from which IBM specifically and directly benefits through its strategic partnership with Microsoft. Corporations will say what they want, but reality is made by acts. newsroom.ibm.com/2025-04-29-i...

I don’t think Johnny Quest is any more unsalvageable than the median story in its genre but I do think it’s fascinating to be a Johnny Quest shooter in 2025.

(I do think venture brothers has at times been a little mean spirited towards its characters but that’s because i am still salty about 24 😡)
