My first five ttrpgs in the order I played them: 1. AD&D 2E First Quest (too young and scared to play the tracks on the CD) 2. AD&D 1E (which I didn't know was different from 2E, so they got mixed a lot) 3. Fake D&D (dice rolls in head, I DM'd for the kids I babysat) 4. GURPS 5. D&D 5E

"Let us rebuild this world together, that we may share in the days of peace." Boy, Aragorn really did say it all with that one, huh? It doesn't matter how bad things get, there is a future out there where we all get to live equally, and its worth fighting for.

Also I still love that Death and Dracula's relationship is canonically (and has been forever) the inverse of Death and Thanos' relationship. Death is just he biggest Dracula fanboy and wants senpai to notice him so bad, and Dracula mostly just broods on this throne, indifferent.

Let's drop the veil: Change does not happen just because it should. Nothing improves without action. If you don't want to live in a world controlled by insane AI and it's Techno-Aristocratic elite, get out and vote. Do it. Otherwise, this account won't be satire for much longer. #vote #politics

please learn to interact with folks respectfully. If you're gonna write a thing or say a thing, stop for a moment and say "is this useful to say here and now to this person?" and if the answer is "no" maybe just don't say it. It's even easier online b/c you can stop & read what you wrote FIRST.

Interviewer: can you explain this gap in your resume? Distiller: It can improve flavor to let things sit in a barrel untouched for a few years.

Interviewer: can you explain this gap in your resume? Game Designer: by leaving some elements undefined, we can create a fruitful void for creativity and exploration to flourish in.

“Gee willickers, what is it that makes this brand new game from the minds behind Fortnite and Walt Disney studios so ✨magical✨?” “We uh honestly don’t know, we just turned the crank and whatever came out was what we shovelled into your troughs.”

What is the movie that came out before you were born that you've watched the most times? Psycho, had seen it before I went to film school then saw it in just about every other film class. Film History, Cinematography, Editing, A Study in Hitchcock, A Study in Film Noir, Directing

“How did you get into ttrpgs” I got invited to join a game of Star Wars Revised my freshman year of collage. I played 3 sessions and then started running games.

“How did you get into ttrpgs” My dad ran D&D 4e for me when I was 8 so tbh my conscious memories from before ttrpgs are fairly (extremely) limited

Taps roof of my TTRPG: I can fit so many unread rules in this thing.

From PBTA going from the cool new kid on the block to the old indie tradition in all these years one fact remains the same: nobody reads their damn rules properly.

When I saw Force Awakens I was like "there's no way they'd let there be a new Empire within a generation" AND THEN the real world decided to prove me wrong
