Boy fuckin howdy did I absolutely panic play and punt those games lol.

I shouldn't have kept a 1 lander in game 2 and I should have tried to get a null rod in game 3.

GGs man.

mockup game card

some more recent art on my WIP card game. I quite like this look, the strong inks and tones. Many card game go for a painted color vibe, but I feel like this matches the tone.
I'd love to turn this into a solo card game of some kind. Notes and such, but still working

The next time I travel to LA for any number of days I'm renting a car. I spent easily $250 in Lyft rides this week...

Seriously why did they get rid of 2 free checked bags?! Everyone just tries to carry-on everything and so they just check bags for free. Ludicrous policy change.

About to hop on my first Southwest flight since they made assigned seats and no more free checked bags, what's even the reason to pick them over almost any other airline?

I'm super stoked to see where this goes.

Conan is one of my favorites in my pull list, every issue a great read.

I finished Conan #29 before work, and I don't really know the broader Howard canon/universe (something I'm trying to correct), but @jimzub.bsky.social & Braithwaite created such a good origin story for the new character that I got to the end and wondered if this wasn't a Howard creation all along.

Pokémon Is OSR — Prismatic Wasteland I elucidate the ways that the Pokémon games embody several principles of the OSR playstyle, which is maybe unsurprising when you consider the history of JRPGs.

Pokémon Is OSR. Yes, seriously

Yeah, and I don't think it's a UB specific thing. The store I work at had gangbuster numbers for FF through Lorwyn prereleases but tonight we had 30 which isn't near our cap.

It felt *odd* to say the least.

Today is going to be a looooong day. Woke up at 5am. Have a full day of cleaning out my mom's house then working Full Grip tonight for the TMNT prerelease.

Probably looking at a 20 hour day easily.

How far back in time can you understand English? An experiment in language change

This is incredibly cool, a story told in English where every paragraph steps back in time to an older form of English. I am super proud I got to 1000 before it was entirely incomprehensible

We haven't even done Gary Con 2026, but I think next year for Gary Con, I want to run the following games:
1. D&D Welcome to Hellfire Club starter box but in 1e
2. @kierongillen.bsky.social DIE RPG set as an off books game *at* Gary Con of a group that got the band back together, as it were.
