One of my players can't make the next session (same guy as last session, I think he's gonna quit soon), so we're just going to do a one-shot instead and I get to play! Another player is going to try DMing and the one-shot is the backstory of a simple, yet beloved, NPC in our world. I'm excited!

I started playing World of Warcraft in October back in my freshman year of college. I played daily for about two years (plus a small backslide one random summer), then decided to stop because it was interesting with life. Still, I always get nostalgic for the early days of WoW this time of year.

Give me four versions of you

She puts the "fist" in sophisticated. She is also a poor speller.

Ahh, I love when the weekend is just getting started!.. Aaaand it's Sunday night. Damnit.

I'm a DM. I don't have "idle" thoughts. I have "actively planning my next session even though it's three weeks aw-OOH IT'D BE SO MUCH COOLER IF I DID *THIS* INSTEAD OF *THAT*" thoughts.

Are foodies still a thing or did we move past that as a culture like we did with ironing clothes?

Lest we forget ...

Alright, let's see what all the fuss is about ...

"Copacetic" is a very 90s word.

Better Off Dead for Tax Purposes

Someday I'll put a pot on the back burner and not turn on the front burner first. But today... today is not that day.

Just watched the first three episodes of Avatar: Seven Havens. I'm definitely intrigued! Good characters so far, interesting setting, makes me want to know the backstory of what happened with Korra. A good start!

It's about time I'm getting recognized for my efforts. (This is an actual email I just received on my work account.)

Ooh, ooh, I got a good one. Ahem. KPop Inner Demon Hunters. Oh yeah! Huh?...What?... "Literally the main theme of the movie"? Sorry, I- I don't follow. Too busy being totally clever and awesome.

After striking out on finding the shiny green Applin last week, I got this stellar shiny guy on my first raid!

Hi there! It's your friendly, local, multi-billion dollar, multi-national company! Gee,I know you're about to spend an exorbitant amount of money on our gasoline or groceries, but won't you please round up for charity? You see, we'd do it, but our shareholders really prefer when you do. Thanks!

When I'm old and gray, a lifetime of memories behind me, loves gained and lost, family and friends passed on, lived experiences and world-changing events, I will still be making Homestar Runner references that no one else remembers.

My Star Wars-obsessed seven-year-old is "helping" to set up my D&D session.

LPT: The easiest way to keep your house clean is not to live in it.

What's the morality scaling of guilt-tripping a player into not bailing on D&D by feigning ignorance about him wanting to watch the Yankees playoff game instead of playing? 😇😈

Peachtober day 01: Oak #peachtober #peachtober2026

October? More like Bachtober. Gonna go for Baroque. Time to fugue around and find out.

I feel bad for all the people that existed before video games.

I have a type.

My druid just had his first conversation with this armor after getting it gifted to him by a local druid circle the party assisted. He doesn't know what the armor wants or where it's from, just that it speaks to him in Draconic and has not had a wearer capable of understanding it in a long time.

What the hell?! I just opened PoGo for the first time in about five hours and apparently the new in-game auto-catcher found three shiny Pokémon! (Nothing new and all terrible IVs, but a nice surprise!)

Happy Bi Visibility day, my friends! And I'm still proud of this post...

I'm grading quizzes and in one problem students needed to find and correct an error in a solved equation. One student's answer said "the person who did the error didn't right the equation wright." It's almost impressive to mess up homophones that badly twice in the same sentence.

A Lord of the Rings quote, but it starts with "Dude". "Dude, I have no memory of this place."

Let's get drunk off these cocktail shrimp.

I played LoZ: Twilight Princess back when it was released. I beat it, enjoyed it, but then basically forgot everything about it. I decided that I want to replay it before the OoT remake gets released and I'm now a few hours into the game. It really is a pretty looking game and I'm liking it again!

Here are all of the props I 3D-printed, primed, and painted for tonight's D&D session as my players explore a dungeon that can lead them into the Underdark in pursuit of the disguised drow Lady Swilda Borthin. I'm proud of the results of my first big painting job!

I have good news.

Yes, I understand the irony of streaming Rage Against the Machine on Spotify interrupted with ads for Amazon, PayPal, and GEICO.

It's again that time of year in which local businesses post lawn signs that remind me never to frequent their establishments. The signs typically contain words such as "vote" and "Republican".

The amount of times I misread "Polish" as "Polish"...

Don't Cunkshame me.
