There's a lot I'd like to do honestly but none of it is possible right now because there aren't enough hours in the day. I'd like to find collaborators and do more with it generally!

When I reach my destination, she'll be waiting and pick it up from me.
I've never met him before, he was just at the station, looking for help!

I love trains because I feel like there's always some kind of story happening. Just on this trip, I met an old man at the station who was looking for someone who was going to my city. He gave me a set of house keys that his daughter left behind. She has left on an earlier train.

I'm a sucker for gargoyles too. Right now, I'm thinking about doppelgangers a lot for something I'm writing so I'll throw that in there.

I was a player in a Hearts of Wulin campaign at the beginning of the year and I killed it (if I can say that about myself, haha). I'd play that again in a heartbeat.

It's an elaborate process involving oil, chillis, and so much more. It's probably not what you imagine when you say "pickle" but that's what we call it.

I would immediately die and would deserve it.
My greatest train moment was catching a 6 am train after a Metallica concert in Bangalore that had like 10,000 people. I could see the train leaving as I entered the station and had to run to catch it. My legs were jelly but I made it!!

Ooo, do you have an answer for this? I love monsters and monstrosity but I don't have an obvious one that comes to mind.

I usually wake up at 6/7 and go to sleep at 10/11. Ever since I started working with Rascal, I've ended up having very chaotic working hours because I'm always trying to talk to people in the US at convenient times for them. I tend to fill my day with work regardless.

The state I'm from (Kerala) is famous for prawn pickle. My uncle actually makes them in big batches every time he visits and they disappear quickly because people go crazy for it. So that's probably my answer even though I rarely actually eat it.
But other favorites: mango, lime, garlic.

I don't know if you know Kellynn Wee but she's worked on, among other things, the anthropology of ttrpg play studios in Singapore. A great source in general. Not sure if she's on Bluesky but can pass along an email.

Good call! Definitely healthier than the alternative.

Yeah, it's not a good time to start -- production (like everything!) takes time to learn and I'm not sure if people are going to get that leeway

The fallout of that book was famously bad. Russia threatened sanctions. All three primary authors of the book DENIED WRITING THE CHECHNYA SECTION. And things got so heated that they pulled everyone off the project
