Al: So here comes Bundy into the game for the first time. You've all heard the Ted Bundy story, we don't need to go into it. Kirk: Dealt with a lot of adversity, and it's inspiring to see him face that adversity head on. Good looking guy too! Al: No kidding! So Bundy under center, 3 receiver set.

This is a super helpful GM tip that most people don't think about. Admittedly, in The Biggest RPGs there's a great deal of dice rolling for everybody in combat - but in a PbtA-type game, or a stealth or social scene in a trad game, if you ask for lots of rolls, you increase the odds of failure.

Donald Trump's single greatest positive legacy will be accidentally moving us about a decade forward on the solar-and-battery transition in under a year, just because of the economic and national security impact of this stupid war.

Walter Cronkite: After liberating execution camps… Germans (who cried) they didn’t know…were as as guilty as Nazis…because they applauded when Hitler shut down (media) and said, ‘We don’t need to know. We trust our government...’ It’s our duty to know.

these people will happily whitewash and paraphrase unhinged Trump rants to make them seem grammatically coherent and authoritative, but if a young woman says “like” we must keep it in there to make sure you know she’s a bimbo infuriating actually

Due to half the regular Wednesday night group being out last night I ran the old FFG Star Wars Edge of Empire beginner game / boxed set. It turned out to be really fun & super approachable. The character booklets did an excellent job of explaining how to play your character right away.

It's a beautiful warm late-summer Saturday and there are half a dozen people who brought their children to just... hang out with them... at a coffee shop. Take your children to a park and leave them alone to play with other children for a few hours. Or something. Jesus.

I had a hell of a good time playing M&M over the last three years. If you enjoy superhero RPGs, and you have $75, you would be downright silly not to take advantage of this deal. I owned over half of this stuff and I still bought it.

If you are incapable of running a game session without using AI, you're incapable of running a game session. You're not a GM, you're a speaking copy/paste button that also destroys the planet for the sake of a few hours entertainment. Your own imagination lies shackled in a dungeon, starving.
