Just like you, but different. Batteries not included. Not available in all states (like plasma). Potrzebie. DCC rpg. If you take cranberries and stew them like applesauce, they taste much more like prunes than rhubarb does. Now you tell me what you know…

I can only assume these are all going on the tree this year… Any chance of a pic of that?

Saw the new MST3K episode, Sting of Death, last night — laughed out loud throughout. Thought it would get more people laughing out loud, too, but I guess critical mass was not there… Also, one couple had Tom Servo with them (shoulda got a pic I guess) — was like watching with royalty!

Actually, I now remember watching a full game at a con back when — I had played it one day and then had a couple friends playing it the next — it was fun to see how differently the two sessions went. But that’s a pretty specific case, eh?

Jon! @bygrinstow.bsky.social · 09/09/2026
I skate off actual play, because I’m not playing and can’t contribute. But I can remember people just hanging out, watching, while games were being played back in the 80s and 90s at cons — my observation that “different people are different” applies again!

He was at Gen Con this year, and they had him do the “the exhibitors hall is about to close” announcements. A couple of them were incomprehensible to me, but then I’d never heard of him before, nor heard what he was doing before, and maybe in the audiobooks he eases into some of those voices…?

I guess specificity in the adage is what was missing. 🤷

I feel like I’m increasingly seeing art that doesn’t match text — as if the ask was “we need a Y with X, X, and X” and the artist immediately says “right, Y with X — got it!” and there’s never any checking-in during the process…

Palladium has too many opinions on what my game should and shouldn’t do, Pathfinder invites the pre-game of character planning that ruins the at-the-table game, Basic is a little flat…

Overall, Christopher Nolan did a great job but I still prefer the Adam West/Burt Ward Odyssey.

Block the bots and get back down to 500 follows…? Srsly, I’m sure more than half my follows are bots — real estate woman with expensive tastes and jet-set lifestyle seems a very unlikely follow por moi, but maybe she’s real??? Or just a bot tryin’ ta look fancy…

Also, I’m backer 100 — I guess there was a reason it kept popping up in my head to be “the next thing I do” when back at the laptop…
Proof of status as backer 100.
