Come get your copy of Ambition, lets see how far these wax wings can fly.

I'm not one to harp on old stuff being better, but... Borderlands 2 just hits differently than the newer games, especially Assault on Dragon Keep.

Chris Edwards @OneChrisEdwards It takes some kind of balls to even suggest this to the creator of The Wire: Juno Rylee Schultz @junoryleejournalism.com Follow David Simon, creator of 'The Wire', being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR) SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems... SIMON: What? SHAPIRO: ...Or saying... SIMON: You imagine that? SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over. SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level. SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this. SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

The line "I'd rather put a gun in my mouth" is so fucking metal and the exact amount of fuck you I'd love to see more folks have about ai generated content

Why the FUCK would I want to let something else take the fun from me when it comes to writing?

Looks like my grocery store stopped carrying the frozen ground turkey I used to get. Shit.

Time to adapt Thanksgiving plans on the fly.

I swear, if I get home from the grocery store and THEN get the email about the book I have on hold at the library being available...

I'm getting really tired of hearing about shows, movies, and games years before they come out.

Send me DMs if you want to playtest it

Me when there's a wedding in my extended family and no one tells me:

This is important to know... for reasons, you see.

A feature lite (unless you want to pay money to them) image editor/layout software that is best used as a last resort if you don't have access to anything better.

Now it's your Monday (Monday MONDAY) reminder!

Man, it's good to know there's people that understand this. I'm surrounded by people who complain something doesn't turn a profit.

It's not meant to. It's a service. Not a business.

Me over here complaining that Fortnite is just using the versions of Daft Punk from the Alive 2007 album... while my son enjoys the event.

I'm really considering on just randomly, from time to time, talking about this world. I haven't played a game in it in awhile but it's one of my favorite to revisit.

I'm also considering doing an entirely new one for scratch... if I ever get around to running a game.

I would like to subscribe to this line of thinking.

Holy crap, they also provide free access to LinkedIn Learning. Good bye, LinkedIn Premium.

... folks, my city's library lends out musical instruments. Why have I never known this before?

Friday...

I've since run about ten or so campaigns in that world, some in D&D, some in Pathfinder, built upon by players as they go and spanning about 700 years of history. I've got a couple pretty large binders covering it.

In the early 2000s, I tried to convert D&D 3E to support it. Since I couldn't get it to work, I ended up making a game world that hit a lot of the same themes (and frankly, at the time, lifted a lot right from it with the serials filed off).

Being inured to absolute insanity helps.

List 3 things you can talk about for 3 hours with no prep:

1. Suikoden. For your own well being, don't. After all, it inspired...
2. My first (and primary) fantasy TTRPG setting.
3. TTRPGs in general and how there's some sorely underrepresented genres and pretty much everything about them.

That's some straight up "generated by AI" copy there too.

New job has kept me from having the energy/time to put words to doc so I haven't had a chance to write anything new for @redwizard.ca - especially since it turns out the laptop I bought was defective and needed returned.

Hopefully I get some time soon.

Well, the bot posts tend to be a little less painful to read these days.
