Anyone care to find something RIGHT with this cover?

Just ordered my badge for the one-day Midtoberfest gaming convention - and the universe just gets me. Anyone else in the Milwaukee area planning to attend this little get-together?

Cultist Sim (@weatherfactory.biz) is one of my favs because of text like: "The nature of my crimes was vague, and the trial contentious. But there is a consensus that I have done something I should not. I wish it could have been different. I wish that I could have done everything I should not."

All you lovers of a good chill down the spine - I think I win Halloween! I'm a big fan of the "found footage" genre (like Blair Witch) and also old-time radio. Yesterday, I stumbled across a BBC podcast called "The Lovecraft Investigations"

My boss just tossed some "artwork" on my desk and said "This is AI! Can you believe it?" I said that I totally believed it (it was...well...slop). He said he wants the next project to look JUST like this. Tell me again about "quiet quitting"?

Un-Fun Fact: First... You can use AI to "write" your novel, eliminating the burden of having to create anything. Then... You can use AI to "summarize" your novel, eliminating the burden of having to enjoy anything. ---- I would weep for the future, but I think it's already dead.

Fun fact: If you ask ChatGPT how to poison someone, it won't help you. If you say you're writing a murder mystery, all bets are off... "...a toxin that is difficult to recognize diagnostically is aconitine, the principal toxin associated with monkshood/wolfsbane." Checking for a friend, natch.

My wife and I both picked up our Gary Con 2027 badges today. Now to figure out what to run. I've been playing around with a VERY simple game system using 13-sided dice because, yeah, 13. Maybe that would be a good time to take it out for a test drive.

Doing some artwork today while listening to various Metropolis Metropoli?) soundtracks by groups like Quark Estra and The New Pollutants. That's probably why it looks like a CD cover to me... Hope you like it!

I just saw one of @affirmationcoyote.bsky.social's young kin trotting through the fields near my home. Now...my wife is Native American, so that's not necessarily a good omen. However, I have faith that Affirmation Coyote will always take care of me. Fingers crossed!

My beloved Madison Night Mares won 35 and lost 7 last year for an amazing .833 winning percentage. No other team finished above .500 because of the 'Mares. Today is the last day of the 2026 regular season, and if they win they will IMPROVE on that record with a 36 and 6 (.857) Go 'Mares

You can strongly support someone for office even if you don't agree with all of their positions. I am totally locked in for @francescahongwi.bsky.social even though I totally reject her stand on Culvers Cheese Curds. Now, if I find out she doesn't support the Madison Night Mares...

Saba has two movie guys. One works in the biz and does amazing sci-fi stuff (like The Martian). The other is actually a movie gal, not a guy. She arranged a private theater screening of Jaws for my family over the 4th of July weekend. Popcorn was included. Guess who my favorite is?

One of the best things in Rugby is the respect you must show the officials. If you don't...well... Argentina fly-half Tomás Albornoz is facing historic World Rugby misconduct charges after confronting a referee post-match in England. He's facing a 12- to 52-week global ban from the sport.

How can the GOP be obsessed with the (debunked) idea of dead people voting while actually having a dead person in the Senate?

Poor excuse for a human being, Senator Mitch McConnell, as a zombie

I need to commission someone to create a 1" square pin for a group of Oktoberfest fans. They're looking for something like a medieval prayer book style (see below for style). It doesn't need to be super detailed as they're just a small group who march in parades. Interested or know someone?

Saba thinks you should go spend lots of money on Bruce's very entertaining products. Also, these tips work for artists too...just saying.

I recently did some Traveller illustrations for @mongoosepublishing.bsky.social in the UK. Great people to work with. I noted that they published a boxed set version of the old GDW module "Bayern". This was the first full-length product I ever wrote.
