I finally finished The Sopranos, and am filling the void with Tower Dungeon. Mouse hobbit and crow goat are best characters so far. I don't like it nearly as much as Blame, but I do like it much more than Biomega or Knights of Sidonia.

This quote made the rounds a decade ago and it's equally true today.
A screenshot of text, which reads:

Sometimes people use “respect” to mean “treating someone like a person” and sometimes they use “respect” to mean “treating someone like an authority”

and sometimes people who are used to being treated like an authority say “if you won’t respect me I won’t respect you” and they mean “if you won’t treat me like an authority I won’t treat you like a person”

and they think they’re being fair but they aren’t, and it’s not okay.

If you also love climbing ancient ruins while being pursued by a terrible beast, as well as games you can finish in a single sitting, then I can't recommend Idols of Ash enough! store.steampowered.com/app/4450800/...

Idols of Ash on Steam
Grapple, clamber and fall thousands of meters down into a dark and ancient place in this first-person horror climbing game. You are being hunted.

Designing some abstract player pawns with unique silhouettes. I cut them out of some scrap oak flooring.
Eight shapes that look like board game pieces, each starting as a 1.5 inch by 1 inch rectangle, but with different shapes cut in the top:

Red rectangle, blue with a dome top, yellow with a pointed top, light grey with a notch cut out of the top looking like a castle wall, sea foam green with a hole through the center, gold with a flat top and angled corners, light purple with a semicircle cut out of the side, and green with a slanted top.

Mini Jenga blocks at Dollar Tree for $1.75. These should make perfect dungeon walls! I've been moving towards plain wood dungeon tiles/terrain. Helps aphantasia-leaning players stay on the same page, but still forces the use of imagination and flexible enough for any theme.

They made them take down the videos because they would cause "reputational damage" to people like this young man, Nathan Cavanuagh, so definitely don't post this all over the internet with the name Nathan Cavanaugh attached, or this guy might suffer reputational damage. This guy, Nathan Cavanaugh.

These were the first nine that came to mind. The videogames I find myself thinking back to the most often. Star Wars Battlefront 2 on the PS2 gets an honorable mention.
The top 9 videogames trend:
Shadow of the Colossus 
Half-Life 2
Sable

Space Engineers 
Pokèmon Yellow

Step aside Monte Cook, there's a new cube in town!
A wooden travel case, roughly one foot on each face, filled with materials to GM elf games on the go.Another view of the case where the front panel has been slid into place.A view of the back of the case, revealing a pocket that can hold a letter-size TTRPG book, or in this case a pad of graph paper and several folders of character sheets and adventures.

This thread is great, but this piece sticks out. When trying to prevent another “never again” moment, we have to push back early, on the small things, when it’s not yet cool, still cringe even. If we wait until the tanks are already rolling, the detention facilities full, then it’s too late.

Blaming victims, saying “if you follow orders you’ll be fine” is a defense mechanism for people who don’t want to engage/care. They want to believe that they’re safe, nothing bad can happen to them, because they don’t go out there “causing trouble.” It’s all, as always, based in fear and ignorance.

Made some little droid friends out of beads and interesting bits of trash. Should hopefully get to use a couple in an upcoming #starborg game this weekend.
Seven tabletop miniature robots.  An orange one that resembles BB-8 from Star Wars. A bright teal one with arms coming out of the top of its head.  A tall yellow cylinder with tank treads.  A short red cylinder with three legs.  A blue sphere with chunky legs.  A black dome with lots of tiny legs.  And a green one with arms and a roller-ball.

I ordered Star Borg from @jpcoovert.bsky.social for my little cousins and thought I'd make a handful of paper minis to go with it. I used packing tape to "laminate" them and a penny to weigh the bottoms down, and keep from tipping so easily.
Amateurly drawn paper minis of the Star Wars character: Han Solo, C3-PO, Chewbacca, a Gamorrean guard, and Jabba the Hutt.The backsides of those same characters.The side view of Chewbacca, showing the penny weighing down the bottom, and the packing tape laminating the front and back.
