DIY web archiving is way more doable than you think. Trust me, we taught elementary schoolers and retirees as part of SUCHO. Then we made a zine about it! Making time for web archiving things that matter should be like shoreline litter pickup or community garden weeding events.

Schrodinger's Crowdfundingslop: it's both like all the games I already play, and also somehow totally different?

I finally joined the early 2000s and used my phone for voice dictation to draft the play report for part 1 of @munkao.bsky.social 's latest, What Happened to the Silver Spoon Boys? Gamified homework - AND YOU'LL ENJOY IT. tomasz-rpg.bearblog.dev/play-report-...

Sometimes I think I'm a nerd, but then I see that there's a 11-minute video based on the number of characters in the title of the sequel to a video game I moderately enjoyed 10 years ago, and I realize I'm probably an imposter. Also, is this kind of thing really a cornerstone of the economy now?

My poor players wanted NPC maps (à la Het Thamsya) for Zaya's Theatre and Drizzle Distillery and this is the best I could do for them. (H/t @servsci.bsky.social for the marginal sketch of Kripik in Drizzle). #KalaMandala #ttrpg #drizzleDistillery #zayasTheatre

Poor-quality, hand-drawn map of a roleplaying game setting.

It's late, but here's my play report for @munkao.bsky.social's Tragedy of Zaya's Theatre. Lots of RP fun was had, but sadly I have forgotten all the best quips so we're just getting the mechanical details here. #KalaMandala tomasz-rpg.bearblog.dev/play-report-...

Leave it to Christopher Nolan to be like, "you know what the problem is with the Odyssey? Too much polysemy. Better beat it into shape."

We started playing Kala Mandala at my LGS recently and love it! The art, the wit, the whimsy all make Kala Mandala a delightful world to explore and a breath of fresh air in the sometimes dour and earnest world of OSR.

Another batch of mechanical observations, homebrew, and rulings based on 200% more experience with #KalaMandala! tomasz-rpg.bearblog.dev/more-house-r... Seriously, this game is a treat.

It took time to get back to the game and longer to write the report, but here it is: the second and final play report from our run-through of @munkao.bsky.social 's Stirring the Hornet's Nest at Het Thamsya. What a blast! tomasz-rpg.bearblog.dev/play-report-...

@munkao.bsky.social I'm getting ready to run Tragedy at Zaya's Theatre. Can I bug you with a question about the detachment of guards and captains?
