When the edibles hit, and you’re talking about tylenol with your husband, and you pour four M&Ms into your hand, and think “how may of these can I take?”

Happy 60th birthday to a sci-fi franchise that is, quite literally, one of the reasons I'm married today. LLAP to all Trekkies everywhere. 🖖

Ok. Strange New Worlds S4:E7 - 8/10. Fine. FINE. This one was fun. Had a decent hook at the end that I won't spoil.

I think I can finally call myself an Angine de Poitrine fan. Took me a while to figure these guys out, but I dig what they're up to. It's totally unique and weird in a good way. *Triangle hands for some reason*. And this song is a straight up bop. youtu.be/pRgHYWOtqqc?...

Sad about Dolly Parton. She was one of the true Good People, and an incomparable musical talent (even though I personally didn’t really listen to much of her output). And she was a real mensch in every sense of the word.

Definitely check out @nullproject.bsky.social This Line Isn't Secure. Libby is an incredible keeper, and the players are always super engaging.

Yep I've heard it. I think I'm now on my 5th separate IL playthrough listen? Let's see: Get in the Trunk, BPG, This Line Isn't Secure, RPPR, and now RPG Sean.

I’m about to run session one of Impossible Landscapes after having to punt it a few months due to player schedules. You want a mind fuck - IL is a mind-fuck. @drgonzo123.bsky.social wrote something that’ll actually drive you and your players insane.

Cool. I haven’t played that one yet. Glad you had fun! I do recommend picking up the agent handbook (even just the pdf) to flesh out your game.

Strange New Worlds S4, E4 - 6/10. A messy Casablanca tribute that Star Trek will regret - maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but soon, and for the rest of the franchise. Ok, it wasn't that bad, but it needed a polish. Especially the wedged in retake of the Marseillaise scene.

when I hear the phrase “head on” I immediately think “apply directly to the forehead.” Anyone else? No? Just me?

I don't have a WIP, but I did have a bunch of queer dragons invade my brain a few months ago, and they insisted I write a couple of stories about them. My fixations are back to horror now, but the dragon stories remain, unfinished, on my substack. #horrorwriterschat

I say the eclipse ended only because something else began. Within the black sphere of the moon, an eye opened, ringed by the sun's corona like waving hair. In that moment, the world knew, and we all looked back, singing. #horrorwriterschat

I tend to write normal characters wading into situations that expose them to the weird or unsettling, and then sometimes they get eaten or go insane or both. #horrorwriterschat

I write weird/cosmic horror along with whatever else my brain chooses to fixate on. Neither unsettles me on its own. It would, however, be unsettling if a solar eclipse happened at a time science hadn't predicted, or if I saw a huge unblinking eye appear on a meteor as it fell. #horrorwriterschat
