Howdy! I am very interested in running a #TTRPG or four!

It'll probably be some right-wing grifter whose only qualification is that they were the host of a UFO conspiracy "documentary" that was produced by Fox News.

Trump is using Palantir to scan social media for people who are disloyal to him?

I've definitely reduced backing crowdfunding projects in recent months. I still back projects, but mostly at the PDF-only level. Shipping for physical products has gotten crazy expensive, especially for projects based in Europe. And who knows what the Trump Tariffs will be when products ship.

I worked tech support at a university in the 90s. Recovering data from failed Iomega Zip Disks was nigh impossible. The scream of anguish from a PhD candidate whose only copy of their doctoral thesis was on a failed Zip Disk still haunts my dreams.

My first rule of politics is if you want to win, do what Republicans do.
And Republicans don't let focus groups tell them what to say. If anything, they test focus groups to see if they're regurgitating Republican messages. Something a focus group will never do if you avoid hyperbole.

I had totally forgotten about the 2004 Necromancer Games release of CSIO, which updated the setting to D&D 3.5. And somebody has to have scanned the original 1976 version and uploaded it somewhere...
