Mrs.Platypus @mrsplatypus.bsky.social · 02/10/2026There was a pop-up record store/exchange in a mall next to me this weekend and I came home with some treasures. ☺️ King Crimson is a rerelease, I would have to sell a kidney to afford the first pressing in this condition. But Rumours is a proper 1977 pressing and it sounds nearly PRISTINE. 150
Mrs.Platypus @mrsplatypus.bsky.social · 25/09/2026I have completely failed to do #soloSeptember, first by having a broken printer as an excuse, and then by having two sick cats as an excuse. So fuck this, I'm doing #soloOctober and focusing on spooky games I haven't played yet. 120
Mrs.Platypus @mrsplatypus.bsky.social · 09/09/2026Every doomsday cult does this! They hype up the disaster! And this cooked brain nonsense is being reposted by the leadership of Anthropic, so they clearly find it useful to propagate the idea that there's an imminent danger (that only they fully comprehend and can stop). 0101

Mrs.Platypus @mrsplatypus.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Today's Slugblaster session included a triple solar eclipse, gentrification of a ziggurat, rapidly evolving dinosaurs, reckless use of anti-gravity, mistaken identity, family drama, and "Mandy" by Barry Manilow. This is going to be a very fun campaign. 220
Mrs.Platypus @mrsplatypus.bsky.social · 02/09/2026Look at this. This is what life should be. She has a blanket and a toy fish, and she doesn't know what "leverage AI to drive efficiency" means. 161
Mrs.Platypus @mrsplatypus.bsky.social · 02/09/2026Matt picked some great games for the start of #soloseptember! 021
Mrs.Platypus @mrsplatypus.bsky.social · 02/09/2026I'm doing Solo September and my goal is to play two new solo TTRPGs from my library each week. I picked up SO MANY little games I haven't had a chance to play yet. And here comes an opportunity to add another hundred games to the collection! 😁 040
Mrs.Platypus @mrsplatypus.bsky.social · 25/08/2026No cheating. Post the last photo of the sky from your camera roll. 030
Mrs.Platypus @mrsplatypus.bsky.social · 24/08/2026I'm planning to do a Solo September and play some new solo TTRPGs in my collection. Does anyone have recommendations for games I definitely should include? 100
Mrs.Platypus @mrsplatypus.bsky.social · 24/08/2026I got caught up in talking to Americans about the AC again and I swear to fucking god, the AC must be causing brain damage. I'm disengaging, there are some of the most thoughtless, tedious motherfuckers on the planet in those comments. 020
Mrs.Platypus @mrsplatypus.bsky.social · 16/08/2026I think this blog helped me figure out one of the main things I find so off-putting about this project. My Rule Zero is "design and run games as if assholes didn't exist". Don't asshole-proof the rules, don't include guidance for dealing with assholes at the table. They're just not invited. 1142
Mrs.Platypus @mrsplatypus.bsky.social · 15/08/2026I'm happy to announce I have accepted a position of the Head of Marketing at Genuinely Artificial, a new TTRPG start-up developing a suite of AI-powered tools for GMs and Players! Exciting things ahead, watch this space! 🎲🤖🚀 130
Mrs.Platypus @mrsplatypus.bsky.social · 13/08/2026For me it's pretty much ANY multiplayer game. Even in a genre I enjoy, even games I enjoy in single-player mode, even with people I know and like. You add other people, and it's instantly ruined. Which is weird, because I LOVE playing all kinds of TTRPGs with all kinds of people. 🤷 130
Mrs.Platypus @mrsplatypus.bsky.social · 13/08/2026I still don't think I'll find people to play this with, but I'm jumping in with $1 and starting a campaign to find some wizard sickos to play with me, so that I can justify upgrading the pledge. 140
Mrs.Platypus @mrsplatypus.bsky.social · 12/08/2026I'm kinda glad I ended up not going to Iceland for the eclipse, because the weather over Reykjavik right now does not look promising... 020
Mrs.Platypus @mrsplatypus.bsky.social · 11/08/2026I did some reading on this and it looks like a huge mess? You need to file a registration in every country you ship to, every country has those filings arranged differently, and you need to keep track of everything you're using for packaging, and make sure all your suppliers are compliant? 100
Mrs.Platypus @mrsplatypus.bsky.social · 11/08/2026Did the AI reply "We have an irrefutable proof that ghosts don't exist - the fact that you have not been turned inside out by the spirit of Harlan Ellison, filled with incandescent rage"? 061
Mrs.Platypus @mrsplatypus.bsky.social · 05/08/2026I got into a bit of trouble at work a while ago. For telling a very senior guy on an all-hands call that if any of us said during the interview for our current roles at this very company that we needed his "AI productivity tools" to do the job, NONE OF US WOULD ACTUALLY GET HIRED. 🙃 051
Mrs.Platypus @mrsplatypus.bsky.social · 05/08/20261 is fine, but I'd rather have a proper espresso This is not bread, go away 2 preferred, but 3 is also fine (6 is a crime) 021
Mrs.Platypus @mrsplatypus.bsky.social · 03/08/2026I've run north of 500 sessions across a dozen different systems over the last decade. I've drawn maps, used art I found online, painted minis, built terrain, and created playlists. It did not once occur to me to outsource any of this to the Shitty Plagiarism Machine. Skill issue, you useless fuck. 1238
Mrs.Platypus @mrsplatypus.bsky.social · 01/08/2026My cats woke me up at 6am and this is the first thing I've read today, Saturday starting strong. Also, how was OVER/UNDER not even nominated in the Community category? 320

Mrs.Platypus @mrsplatypus.bsky.social · 28/07/2026I just found out the Bayeux Tapestry will be in the British Museum later this year, when I'm coming over for a week. And immediately found out the tickets for the whole 2026 have already sold out. 😭 One time I specifically want to see a legit exhibit they DIDN'T actually steal, and I can't. 😞 010
Mrs.Platypus @mrsplatypus.bsky.social · 28/07/2026I think this actually convinced me I must see the Odyssey, because Bronze Age Collapse is MY Roman Empire. 130
Mrs.Platypus @mrsplatypus.bsky.social · 26/07/2026Oh this looks GOOD. Shot on location in Tokyo, Molly is perfect, Mark Strong as Armitage is a great choice too. (Please be good, please be good, please be good) 000
Mrs.Platypus @mrsplatypus.bsky.social · 14/07/2026I really really want to get it, but I'm doubtful if I can get 3-6 people to actually get INVESTED in this enough to make it work. This doesn't look like a game you can half-ass, I would need people who will fully lock in, actually read through the whole thing and STAY invested. 😅🙃 130
Mrs.Platypus @mrsplatypus.bsky.social · 14/07/2026My brother is a software architect and I think I would do pretty well at the people management part of his job. And AT BEST vibe code my way through a week or two before I crashed the whole online service he's working on. 010

Mrs.Platypus @mrsplatypus.bsky.social · 09/07/2026I have a question for Scotland. Why is every single table in this country sticky? And I mean EVERY table. All sorts of cafes, pubs, restaurants and cafeterias. Is it on purpose? Is there a law? Is the local brand of cleaning product for tables sticky? Do you not know that a table CAN be clean? 😭 010
Mrs.Platypus @mrsplatypus.bsky.social · 03/07/2026I recently bought a bike (the model is called Luiza Legend and I love it), and it feels like such an infuriating scam that physical exercise, even moderate exercise, genuinely makes you feel SO MUCH better. You're telling me dragging a combined 100kg of me+bike around is what I actually need? 120

Mrs.Platypus @mrsplatypus.bsky.social · 25/06/2026I need to get off social media until this heat wave ends. Or until the Americans manage to rub two braincells together and realize that if there's a problem and they don't understand why it's not being solved in a Very Obvious Way, it's probably because they're missing some fucking CONTEXT. 110
