Lobo, done for the Heroes Con art auction this weekend. 19x24 ink, watercolor, stamp, marker, acrylic, and gouache.

Ok, so how long until we get an official Backrooms ttrpg, or at least a modern liminal horror dungeoncrawler inspired by it?

Its extra depressing to me knowing that cis gays here in the states essentially threw trans people under the bus specifically so they could get gay marriage legalized. Like, wtf, we owe so much of the struggle to trans people

A thing I love when playing a ttrpg with a GM that isn't used to my nonsense, is when I try to pull a shenanigan that stops them and forces them to stare into the void like Steve Harvey. On the flipside, I also love being baffled by player shenanigans when I GM. Chaos goblins unite ✊️✊️

As someone who never had any sort of office job, the rare instances that I'm confronted with corporate speak feels incredibly jarring. I'm just a little art weirdo, what is this strange impersonal dialect you're using with me?

I find it so strange and fascinating how dice and tarot have swapped purposes over the centuries. Dice were a tool for seers to predict the future but are almost exclusively used in games now, while tarot cards were used for games for 100s of years but are now used to try to predict the future.

They didn't die while serving in the military, but they died protecting our freedoms from those who would destroy them, nonetheless. Remembering these heroes on this Memorial Day.

I think this gets especially murky the further you dive into making games as well. Buying in hopes of finding inspiration can become such an odd aspect that I find myself (and seemingly others) can sometimes get trapped in.

I saw this in theaters and had a very similar reaction by the end. And I don't think I've heard anyone else say they were underwhelmed by it until now.

This quote from Apollo 14 astronaut Edgar Mitchell has been in my head the last few days

You develop an instant global consciousness, a people orientation, an intense dissatisfaction with the state of the world, and a compulsion to do something about it. From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, ‘Look at that, you son of a bitch

Just do as many pages as you can. You don't have to show anyone the bad ones. Keep going. Just make more. Did you make a lot? Well, make more. You think you made enough? You did not not. Make more.

as a culture we have really given "ideas" way too much credit. ideas are a dime a dozen. they happen all the time. the magic is way more in the doing, and the doing's diminished stature is linked to lack of respect for labor and, more recently, skill and expertise.

subway ad that says "your idea could be live by the time you reach your stop"

Wikipedia's wording of "octopuses and allies" implies that the octopi and vampire squids are planning some shit.

Diagram from wikipedia linking octopuses and vimpire squids. Labeling them "allies" instead of as evolutionary relatives

And thank you for a great game! I was sold the moment I heard your elevator pitch on vintage rpg podcast last year. You've made something very special, Joey.

Absolutely! Also, considering the type of weirdos I know who don't already play rpgs, this is one of the games I tell them about that actually gets them interested in trying rpgs. I always pitch it as "Stranger Things, but the main characters are Elvira, Peewee Herman, and Wayne & Garth."

I personally don't like the idea lf using christian angels in D&D, but if you're gonna do it, I would argue you should modify a beholder statblock and descriptions a little bit so you can have a more biblically accurate looking angel. Be not afraid? No, make your players afraid of angels.

Its a combination of not everyone fully internalizing the rules yet, us often going weeks without entering the Challenge phase (thus needing a refresher), and having many minor actions, we get really tripped up. We only have 2.5 hours session, so at this speed, Challenges take up a lot of gameplay.
