My heart goes out to all the history content creators who had their Halloween posts neatly scheduled and are now scrambling to make "10 other times a prince lost his title" videos.

There's a new ep of our Delta Green podcast out today. It's the first time these episodes have been available for free. Three air force pilots on a remote air base in 1998 have to face a mysterious force that is driving the base personnel insane. Search Danger Club wherever you get podcasts.
A man in a vest with a mullet and an eye patch stands in front of a burning building. The text reads "Danger Files" and a logo in the corner identifies it as a Delta Green podcast.

I really think we're not angry enough about the fact that trains won't go through the big train wash while we're on them. I bet it's great.

My thoughts on what's currently going on in the UK. The British right were so desperate to prove they were victims and they just weren't.
A rick and Morty meme template where Jerry with a Union Jack for a head is attempting to leave and is declaring "I'm going to hang British flags." and the response is "Okay! That was always allowed!"

Just for perspective, a few weeks ago roughly 100,000 turned up for the London Trans+ Pride march. By contrast fewer than 3,000 ACROSS THE WHOLE COUNTRY, have turned up to anti-asylum "protests". Yet we are meant to take the latter as "the voice of the people" and the former as "the minority".

When I said the various Rowlings and Linehans of Britain were assuming and hoping for the public to act as the unpaid enforcement arm of their crank movement, this is precisely what I meant.

As a GM there are few moments as nerve wracking as when the players have completely missed the solution to a puzzle and you have to get them unstuck. Most people find the fun in realising how far off they were but there are a handful that get real mad about it and you don't know until it happens.

He's not on Bluesky so I can talk about him without him behind his back. Working with Ross Harmston is my favourite part of doing APs for this reason. He will pass the ball to anyone and it always scores. He's not the only one by any means but man i cannot get enough of improvising with that man.

Just a reminder that if you're working on the HBO Harry Potter show, or the audiobook, or making/buying licensed Harry Potter products, or covering *any* of the previously noted without mentioning JK Rowling's virulent and non-stop transphobia, this is what you're supporting:

It really is remarkable just how freely accessible the pathfinder and Starfinder rules are. It catches me out when I'm playing another game and realise I can't just look up any rules question for free in seconds. @archivesofnethys.bsky.social truly do (a) gods work.

I've taken some time as QCG winds down to think hard about the places we struggled, and what other aspirational indie studios might learn from it. So here's a short thread: advice on running an actual play company from the Managing Director of Queen's Court Games. 🧠📃⬇️

It blows my mind how perfectly Google has managed to completely ruin the search engine, a piece of technology that has basically been fine since the 90s. It's like if thirty years into making cars Ford had just gone "fuck it lads, let's square off the wheels!"

I made this logo for Pride month last year and I still think it's pretty sick. So since it's Trans Pride in London today...

Wishing love to any creators who are scrambling to post their Starfinder 2 content today after Paizo lifted the embargo a day early with no notice. Pretty sure when we did day and date content for the Pathfinder 2 launch we were still editing at this point in the process.

My old D&D buddies are late to meet and the bar and it's taking me right back to the days when they'd show up late to sessions where they knew it was a big fight because it meant I was a pint or two ahead of them and would forget all the scary monster abilities.

Turned up late to my weekly Pathfinder game, GM immediately gets me to roll a check to save the ship, roll a nat 20, discover that he's set foundry to play John Cena's theme when I roll 20s. Best day of my life.

I've had so many great games this week. Three different groups, three different systems. Pure joy from start to finish. I'm not saying I don't miss podcasting but man I'm playing a lot more rpgs now that I'm not making content about them.

The public was 100% ready for trans rights just a few years ago. What we’re seeing now is a massive shift in public opinion after a coordinated and expensive propaganda blitz, one that Dems happily ignored. Trans rights aren’t new. We had them for years and everything was cool.

One of the things about Star Wars that I always thought was dumb was the comedy battle droids. Why would you make robot people and then deliberately program them to be morons? But then Gen-Ai happened and now it all makes sense.

I was mad when I saw my favourite history podcaster was doing something in a different style because "just give me more of the thing I like" etc. Of course I was completely wrong. The Martian Invasion is one of the best things Mike has made and the best podcast you'll hear this year.

Something that running Pathfinder online has taught me is to be more brave when it comes to letting the dice be what they'll be. It's harder to fudge rolls on a VTT and that can be scary when you think characters you love are about to die. But the dice really do know best.

The We Run These Vaults players so much joy every time we run that game. Somehow last night turned into a full courtroom drama. You know you really love some players when you're custom building new scenes on foundry mid game to support their mad roleplay moments.

There's a few more hours to get in on this week's We Run These Vaults. Come play Pathfinder with a brilliant group of people playing a group of idiots who have essentially founded a religion around a glow stick. startplaying.games/gm/listings/...

Does anyone else get super anxious at drop in TTRPG tables? I never want to spoil anyone's game or trample over quieter players so I kinda just sit there for the first hour or so until I figure out a way to get some jokes in without messing up the vibe.

UKGE 2019 changed my career. Ross and I went down there hoping to talk to some of the @paizo.com team about Pathfinder 2e. We got in early and I asked if there was somebody from the press team we could book an interview with. Turns out the person we asked was @jasonbulmahn.bsky.social himself...
Dan (a tall man with long hair) and Ross (a man wearing a cap) stand in front of a big picture of a Dragon. They are wearing Danger Club shirts. In between them stands Jason Bulmahn (a man in a blue Pathfinder t-shirt). All three are smiling and Jason is pointing at the other two with his thumbs.
