Hal Jordan's been called "the boring Green Lantern" nearly every time he's been adapted to other media. So I'm surprised and delighted by fandom going *feral* for him in #Lanterns. #DCU #GreenLantern

I am certain he will find the right home. I've known enough people with the compassion, patience, and love for dogs like him.

Two images of a Tesla Cybertruck in a lake. The top shows the truck semi-submerged with the caption "Cybertruck of the lake what is your wisdom." The bottom shows empty water with the caption "Don't use Wade Mode."

Also, their prompts suck. Why does it write in those clipped sentences? They're going to give AI slop a bad name. ;)

If young master #Vance lacks the will to visit Area 51 or audit the Ioun collection at Fort Knox, mayhap he should adopt the methods of sorcerers of Melniboné. Many a traveler has spoken to me of the Dream Couches.

Why does JD Vance believe aliens are demons? He is addled, gentle child. He sees only the next highest pillar he can clamor up and shout from. In his great folly, he has neglected to study the nature of Sandestins. #DyingEarth #fantasy #microfic

To mitigate cycles of feud and revenge, some Germanic groups practiced "weregild," in which men turned into cash under the full Moon.

Well, the Doctor is Rose... ;) At some point, I'll get my Nightlife inspired game presentable to other people. My nostalgia for the 90s is complicated. But my love for scenery chewing baddies and zaddies... got that in my blood. Just need those Arduin crit tables...

Jeepers H Christ. My pal, I haven't read your game, so I won't presume to call it a Vampire heartbreaker. I've gotten a buncha these letters over the years. But you yourself are becoming a White Wolf Developer heartbreaker.

Wow, biggest DriveThru preview I've done was around ~30 pages for Witchblood: Pulp Fantasy Fairy Tales. A game which also has a lot of Punch Them in Their Feelings, courtesy of @gregstolze.bsky.social's A Dirty World. So please let me know how that works!

All games should be opinionated. Your opinions are on every page. Least you can do is let the book have a turn.

Shit just happened to Earl. Money, for one. Reels in Ol' Jim's car. DM b4 AM to learn why. Killer suite, dunno where that view is. Then a bat showed up in Jim's face. Earl missed it, ghosted us all. Bet he fell on Tahiti. Jane's still got her crush. Talk about him, pearly whites just happen.

You made a sale. :) I can't read yet. But in my experience? Getting that shit means you've found a groove. We talked once about putting only the one roll combat into Geist 2e. Decided no to avoid people needing to flip books when fists just keep landing in Earl's face.

As long as the old crew's marriages. Pretty stable lot by the time I came on in a group of three. First meeting we had some quiet, Rich pulled us into conference room. the gist was "you're here to do your own wild things. but don't try to post on the net like Justin. nobody can do it like Justin."

It's been a long time since I line developed the two Vampires, but dude, they're vampires. When I found Masquerade at an age I probably shouldn't have, my reaction was "Wow! The Dracula Tape and versions of all the movies!" The time the genre == WW is long past.

It saved my life too. I was in a low place when I got the playtest manuscript. Changeling reminded me of the wonder and worth of ordinary things.

An excerpt from a list of character classes. The list is headlined "Those Who Search." The "Haunting Doll" entry is selected and highlighted.

Alchemist: A scientist/physician who replaced their blood with golden micromachines.

Haunting Doll: Your standard horror creepy doll, but actually good-natured Hobbes types made to guard Noble children, as well as teach and hang out.  With their charges grown, they look for others to protect.

Saint-Stricken: Beloved of a patron saint who chose them rather than the other way around. They're miraculous whether they want it or not -- they only choose how to use their powers.

Shadow Caster: A contortionist who has the abilities of what their shadow puppet looks like.

Hot transbians love Cavaliers of Mars by @rose.fantasyheartbreaker.com!
Vivian, a middle-aged white trans woman, holding her Kickstarter edition of Cavaliers of Mars. The cover depicts a pair of swashbucklers leaping over a railing, pursued by guards. Baroque towers rise in the background, while an alien statue dominates the foreground. The whole thing is colored in rusty shades of red, orange and yellow.

My itch page is currently accessible. That's not an ad. If you're going to support creators who are affected by itch's removal of adult content, they need your aid more than I do. Don't harass anybody. I doubt anybody following me would. But don't.
