Every now and then I have to post the single best commercial ever made.

Curious about where to start in Terry Pratchett's VAST catalogue? I wrote this for @theguardian.com. www.theguardian.com/books/2025/a...

24 hours to go! Shanna Germain’s guest adventure is halfway funded & we’d love to unlock more maps before the clock runs out. Let’s finish strong! Back The Dee Sanction: Monad Edition now: kck.st/4iSpco6 #TTRPG #Kickstarter #TheDeeSanction

It wasn't always bad times.

Millions march in Serbia, Hungary and Turkey against oppression. The President of South Korea has been removed from office. Marine Le Pen banned from office. Bolsonaro is on trial. Meanwhile, in the U.S.

Sir Terry Pratchett died ten years ago today. It's hard to explain how much he meant, to so many of us, if you're the sort of person who had him filed away as "just a fantasy author". Suffice it to say, not every author would wear a T-shirt like this to book events. GNU Pterry.

Never forget this day, February 28, 2025, when an American president abused and betrayed a democratic ally in the midst of a barbaric war with Russia. This grotesque stain will never wash away.

Folks - #QuestWorlds #TTRPG is in POD now at DriveThruRPG. Go grab it if you have been holding off for this moment. Work will wait a bit while you place your order.

#QuestWorlds is now available (in digital form) at: www.chaosium.com/questworlds-... Due to a last-minute quality issue, it looks like a couple of weeks before we have the POD version of the book.

I’ve had to go ALL THE WAY to LONDON! It’s as good as I had dreamed!

In 2004, Janet Jackson's 'wardrobe malfunction' at the Super Bowl, and all the people desperately wanting to see it, led directly to the creation of the video-sharing site YouTube. The foundation of my career as a YouTuber is built atop an empire caused by a titty.

When the Patriot Act was passed, libraries got requests for patrons’ borrowing history. We were prohibited from disclosing those requests. We deleted and shredded those records and stopped tracking reading history for that reason. ALSO.

A folklorist explains why the Icelandic Saga's don't mention the northern lights.

The greatest David Lynch thing I’ve ever seen was a 1 minute short in an anthology called Lumière and Company. A bunch of filmmakers had 1 shot for 1 minute; everyone else produced various fairly static scenes, little movement, no possibility of cuts. Then Lynch does this: youtu.be/p7EJwCr5Yew?...

The seven-tiered Temple to the Seven Mothers in Glamour, a feat of architectural madness that no one asked for, no one benefited from, and cost a fortune to build.

Since 2020 I’ve increasingly felt like we’re in a digital dark ages, where illiteracy is skyrocketing, people believe in magic, disease is rampant, oligarchs rule, and it’s all facilitated by ultra modern technology that has evolved to reinforce it

As someone who is basically not in any way a skilled artist, I'm pretty chuffed with these four illustrations I've done for the Frozopaedia bonus content for my #RuneQuest scenario, The Winter King.

Nearly there. I am not sure that it is a sensible use of my time to draw some illustrations to accompany the Frozopaedia, but I will probably do so anyway, for fun.

Hey folks. My two scenarios are currently in the DTRPG Halloween Sale. VIRAL (we're not far off Mithril folks!) www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/3...
