read one too many paragraphs about the characters enjoying warm spiced cider and I realized I also wanted warm spiced cider and that that was a very attainable desire. also a pumpkin cake, obviously

Rather than your standard press release, I talk a little bit about what drew me into making Mousetrap, about what feels both Shakespearean and dramatic about Firebrands-style games, about metagames. I hope you'll check it out!

looking for a new winter coat this year and every year I am struck by how much I hate all the nylon puffer coats. hideous. a proper winter coat is something that makes you look like you're shipping out to the navy in 1870. pea coats, duffel coats, you get me

Rearranging a bit to make space 😅 I’m sure Verne will forgive me for having him partially obscured behind a decorative plate; I know what’s in the set. Also someone stop me from buying more big jar candles

One funny thing about this game is that it has forced me to think about various details of my "college experience" more than I have since I was actually there

I don't really adhere to an idea of "garbage in, garbage out" when it comes to, like, the process of creativity but also possibly I need to be putting classics and philosophy INTO my brain in order to counterbalance the sheer amount of Riverdale hanging out in there. it's the only way

I have been lucky enough to have played BOTH of these games and let me assure you: you really really want in on this

I would just like to say that for like several days I have been quietly fuming that this random assignment of a dialogue written ~2400 years ago is relevant to one of the games I've been working on and it feels like crossing the streams like NO this is NOT the one I wanted influencing my work!!!

Today I wrote the next newsletter and I tinkered a bit with Moving Out of the Girl Group House (zine game, maybe out in November? that one's just kind of a casual project) and I 🫣 yet again made some notes/lists/plans for next year's gaming plans

On the first day I moved into my dorm room my freshman year of college, every single sophomore-or-older girl I met made a point to let us freshmen know that a fraternity had recently been banned from campus for sexual assaults in their frat house, but they were still operating unofficially

I was a little worried as my nieces got older that it would be harder to pick out good gifts for them as they outgrew their toys, but one of them is turning 13 and fortunately she’s gotten very into drawing, and getting a teen some really good art supplies is even better maybe

Up to episode 8 in my TOS rewatch and I think maybe I will never get over Kirk IMMEDIATELY thinking "if this goes wrong, the way they will know it's not me is if the fake android-me says something horribly cruel to Spock, which I would never say". No wonder this made me insane from a young age lmao

Today I wrote big lists of questions! That's all I did! It was for two different games (Greatness and The Squire's Sword) and for two different purposes (character setup and scene prompts) but the effect is that I just wrote a whole lot of questions down today

I had something saved to my drafts recently about how I’ve always resented the implication that I can’t or shouldn’t enjoy books or other art that I don’t see myself literally reflected in. Like okay, first of all, nothing human is alien to me, so jot that down

the Baku GP is great for me timezone wise because it's just early enough due to make it feel like A Special Event (which is how I want an F1 race to feel) but not SO early that I'm cursing the world and trying to make cars crash with my mind

When I was in high school, we used to joke about like "well, at least we're not in Ontario, those poor bastards have to be in school for a whole extra year, they have 13th grade!" only to find out as an adult that Ontario had gotten rid of 13th grade well before I was actually in high school lmao

Still thinking about Aunt Charity making sure one of the sailors has a good flannel roll for his arthritic back before sailing 🥺

Chief among those who did this fetching and carrying was Captain Bildad's sister, a lean old lady of a most determined and indefatigable spirit, but withal very kindhearted, who seemed resolved that, if she could help it, nothing should be found wanting in the Pequod, after once fairly getting to sea. At one time she would come on board with a jar of pickles for the steward's pantry; another time with a bunch of quills for the chief mate's desk, where he kept his log; a third time with a roll of flannel for the small of some one's rheumatic back. Never did any woman better deserve her name, which was Charity —Aunt Charity, as everybody called her. And like a sister of charity did this charitable Aunt Charity bustle about hither and thither, ready to turn her hand and heart to anything that promised to yield safety, comfort, and consolation to all on board a ship in which her beloved brother Bildad was concerned, and in which she herself owned a score or two of well-saved dollars.

Parents found this behind their wall while they do house repairs. I think I know a few people who are eager to be surrounded by some sea honkers.

Comic book: with title, Turok: Sone of Stone. The cover depicts two native American men in a log raft being attacked by an aquatic dinosaur. Underneath in white text reads "Surrounded by sea honkers"
