We're currently in the endgame for Out of the Abyss and it's just this honestly

Hey folks, it's CRIT Award time - somehow I'm up for the 'Best Tech/Producer in the TTRPG Space' award among some truly incredible folks! If you've ever enjoyed being at or watching a table I produced for, consider tossing a vote to your friendly local birb using the link below. Info on me in🧵!

Fun fact: before I published a book, I was one of those people. "I'm not getting a physical object, surely that's where a bulk of the cost lays!" I thought. No. Absolutely not. If a PDF has the same art & layout as the print book, congrats - it's worth the same. Good art & layout is EXPENSIVE.

ACAB includes Police Toad and Anti-Union Toadette

Ways I've forced myself to get Better At Games: -"encourage" pals to do an RPG book club to chat critically about games & design each month -apply to (and say yes to!) charity streams and APs for games I've never played but want to -offer to run games from my backlog

人生の輪

I've just run my budget projection for once my roommate leaves if I can't find a new roommate and it's better than I thought but honestly not great! Assuming no big fluctuations in bills (which, y'know, HAH), I'll have about 300-500 dollars a month to eat/get gas/deal with emergencies/have any fun.

Shall I be plain? I wish the bastards dead

A friend of mine moved to Japan a while back to pursue her dreams of singing with a VK band, and one of the gifts she gave me before she left was introducing me to The Gallo, which means occasionally YouTube gives me surprises like this (I want literally all their outfits):

Well, we hit the 100 prelaunch follows. 150 next? WE HAVE LESS THAN 5 DAYS! ttrpg.link/bol Let's talk about my favorite part of Book of Leviathan... The alternate tactical encounter rules! We're using papercraft boats and whales, inspired by GORE, by @asthebroflies.bsky.social. Let's dig into it!

Broke: I'm a healer, but Bespoke: I'm a healer AND

I am chuffed to see some of my predictions are coming true with GQuuuuuuX. Maybe /I'M/ a Newtype... no, I've just seen too much of Anno's work to know he wouldn't not pull this if he had a chance lmao

NYPD is over-enforcing violations for cyclists. If you get the flashers or sirens on a bike, my advice is to just not stop. You don’t have a license plate, they can’t identify you, and they cannot / will not chase you. They’re lazy and what they’re gonna cite you w wont hold up in court anyway.

If you're a fan of historical cooking YouTube channels like Townsends or Tasting History w/ Max Miller or any of Sohla El-Waylly's ancient recipe work, might I recommend this channel which seems criminally underappreciated. youtube.com/@historicali...

I had two absolutely wild dreams last night that I can't believe aren't real. The first was a friend of mine hosting an immersive theater experience in her apartment - a drag rock opera with nobody really being sure who present was there as a performer or an audience member until they began singing.

I've bullied my friends into what I call the Smörkasborg this month: I set the gauntlet that we would all read the OG MB rules and then as many other variants as we could to get a taste for it being used as a silver bullet system. Aside from cyberpunk, I haven't found scifi options - know any?

GET EM BOYZ

Notepad sketch. From brief encounter with grass and the touching thereof.

Join us tomorrow Thursday June 5th for another edition of TTRPG bookclub! This week we're taking a look at Thousand Year Old Vampire. Credits to @samsorensen.bsky.social for the poster!

This is basically the bundle of games I would throw at you if you asked me "But what ARE the big modern queer TTRPGs?" TSL let's you get your Utena on, Zeeb is great if you want to Feel Queer Feels, and Roseville Beach is gay disco eldritch horror, I don't know what else you need to hear tbh

My favorite John Redcorn scene. RIP

Happy pride folks I'm still fleshing out the entries, but here's a list of over 200 retro games (pre-2010) which were made by trans people or which had trans people on the dev team. We have always been here. dotmaetrix.neocities.org/classictrans...

My 8-year-old son has created, written, and drawn a Mausritter adventure! It's available free or pay-what-you-want, and any money paid will go directly to him. A comment, rating, or review would be encouraging to him, if you could take the time. hlashbrooke.itch.io/crabby-crabs #TTRPG #Mausritter

Happy Pride month, all! Way back in 2018 I made these galaxy pride flags. They were shared many thousands of times, featured on Vice, and even made their way onto book covers and into video games. Here are the original ones I created (in no particular order!) so Bluesky can have them too. 💙

The awful thing about realizing things about yourself is that you then have to DO something about them to be better. Can't I just, like, go for the high score on discovering my deep dark motivations? Can't that be the game? And then I just get to move to the part of my life where I'm super cool?

Are you a retailer who carries indie TTRPGs? Want to sell a game about crows doing crime? Reach out and I'll get you setup with a Corvid Court order!
