The deck for my talk on Failure in RPGs is now at 77 slides! I reckon for the indie RPG crowd, 80% of this will be basic knowledge. I'm anticipating my audience to be beginner or D&D-centric RPG players, so I've adjusted the topic accordingly. We will see on Saturday whether I succeed!

My presentation on failure mechanics and inspired storytelling is shaping up really well. A shame that I won't be able to record it at the event since they don't have the setup to do that. Perhaps a streamed talk is in order?

As it happens, my boyfriend and I got to talking "who would you rather have as a boyfriend? Bear (Obsession) or the Phantom of the Opera?" We strongly concluded that the Phantom would make the better partner, with my boyfriend adding "you gotta respect someone with a labyrinth". Wise words.

What knowledge or skill do you need to be thinking about intentionally passing down? For me, I have to teach all my kids the basics of caning chairs, which is a legacy skill in my mother’s family, and hand sewing to mend textiles, which is part of my life’s work.

Was walking past this building and through the window saw this backrooms-ass room, so I accidentally took the coolest picture ever due to the window's reflection
