I played that game back in the day! It is suitably creepy, but I am looking specifically for tabletop games that allow for more world building.

Ah heck, I'm already over here doing thumbnail sketches of keys. It might be too late to save me.

Looking for a game recommendation for a solo rpg that is a horror/chthonic subterranean explore with lots of space for me to decide what the face of horror is. The vibe I am looking for is a solo bluebeard's bride, but underground.

Is there such a thing, or am I just writing another game?

My usual summary for WH: "Two fairly despicable humans fail to overcome their own awfulness and instead buy into their society's class awfulness and then are awful to one another and stab themselves in their own hearts instead of coming to terms with their own issues stemming from that awfulness."

I keep seeing advertisements encouraging me to watch the new Wuthering Heights for Valentines Day, and that is telling me a whole lot about how much they must have departed from the book.

Speaking as someone who tames hungry ghosts for a living, this is highly accurate.

It's finally almost time! I truly can't wait for y'all to play Spoken Legends; I'm really proud of everything I've done to build on the format established in the first game, and I am so very excited to see all the cool worlds people dream up, the heroes you create, and the quests they embark upon!

(ugh, halve is a word, phone)

I am so excited for the visual stories that will come to life from this!

Thank you for the reminder to have the stock recipe on my side in November. Spoiler Alert: I will also forget.

Look you just have to make the cool weird shit that excites you. You must. In this world besieged by bland, scrubbed boring, computer slop, you must. Make the thing you’re embarrassed to make, the thing that feels “too much” because otherwise we get drowned in a sea of cowardly work made by a button

This is the third restaurant I have been on this trip where the tv is showing competitive cornhole. Did I miss a weird turn in competitive sports or something?

I will be at GoPlayNW this weekend. If we haven't met irl, I am the really tall older redhead. I like good games and nice people! Please introduce yourself or say hi!

Thanks for doing these. I discovered two new to me puzzles in them that have been bringing me a lot of joy. <3

Why play one of those Hidden Picture games where you look for the weird object in an unlikely place when that is literally my whole heckin' day, but the weird object is my phone, my tablet, my keys, my glasses, my shoes, my credit card... all on repeat forever.

Trial, Triumph, and the Art of the Possible: The Remarkable Story Behind Beethoven’s “Ode to Joy” A hymn of rage, a hymn of redemption, and a timeless love letter to the possible.

I needed this today. Maybe you are also a nerd who is short on the stuff that makes you keep trying in the face of the impossible. If so, this one might also be for you.

I'm so glad my partner and I have these health trackers to tell us that our sleep is worse when we stay up drinking wine until midnight than it is when we don't drink wine and go to bed at 10:30.

How to improve our well-being continues to be a mystery. As pictured here.

A woman's face emerges from the shadow, holding a gun in front of one of her eyes and staring at the camera with an intense gaze. Overlaid on her face is the text "Take Your Revenge or Die Trying." At the bottom is the date March 15th 2025.

Ooooo you want this on a poster you can print at home oOoOOooO

One of my superpowers is excellent compartmentalizing that lets me be fairly productive while the world burns. But, the idea that the court needs to take a pause to consider if we need to bring back someone we wrongly shipped to a foreign torture prison has shut it down today. (╯°□°)╯( ┻━┻

Opinion | To Save Democracy, the U.S. Should Take a Page From Poland’s Playbook (Gift Article) Poland pulled back from an authoritarian slide. What can the U.S. learn from its nonpartisan approach?

This is a really great conversation with Aleksandra Gliszczynska-Grabias discussing how Poland stood up to the collapse of law in the face of authoritarianism, much like we are facing in the states now. It's worth a read/listen. (gift link)

Nothing in my childhood experiences of endlessly begging for my conservative parents to put anything fun on the TV prepared me for conservatives to take issue with 60 Minutes.
