Holy shit, Wildwood is good. Like, crying and gasping good. See it in a theater. The story and weight and light and emotion are all just perfectly on point. Is it the best stop-motion film ever? Almost certainly. Is it the best animated film ever? Probably. It might even be the best movie ever.

fixin to go run the penultimate session of #PublicAccessRPG and I’m pretty stoked. Horror kicking into overdrive, gonna melt some faces. Maybe fuck around and hurl some souls into the void. We’ll see.

And so ends my effort to quit doing Kickstarters.

I am happy to announce @chaoclypse.bsky.social will be joining ALL THE WAY DOWN. Years ago I said I hope I can get the Holy Trinity of OSR artists on my project @tonytranrpg.bsky.social @hodagrpg.bsky.social & Chao. Now it's finally happening! Get a preview of level 2 by @discodan.bsky.social!

I don’t go high when they go low. I get LOUD. Because the soul and humanity of this country are at stake. /end

Y’all, it’s senior year. None of the gang want to play d&d anymore. Some of these kids have been playing at my table for nearly 10 years. I am sad about it and also so very old. On a bright note, I play with grownups tomorrow! Public Access enters the final push. I’m gonna kill these guys so much.

Oh, President Grampa Shitstain said/did/posted another outrageous thing? Seems like a distraction. Epstein files. War of profiteering. Human rights violations. Eradication of rights. Fuck this fascist clown.

I’m going to level 51 tomorrow! Fuck, I’m old. But the gifts, holy shit. Both Stonetop books, all the Dolmenwood books and some maps, and Daggerheart plus Hope & Fear. I’m gonna need about a month to read.

I had the pleasure of playing this game, run by the author at Between 2 Cons. He is a very kind and cool guy, and his art is fun and engaging, and his game is slick and satisfying. Buy his things!

It's that time again! Every month I take an itch.io payout and for every copy of an item sold, I make a community copy available (plus a few extras based on tips) If you've been waiting to snag a digital copy of Perils & Princesses or one of the supplements, now's a great time.

She already had my vote, but listen, politicians: this is what we mean when we say “legislate in the interest of your constituents“. Give the people what they want. Giant stompy robots.

I am going to lower tariffs on giant war mechs 857%. Nobody can have safe food but everyone will be able to go to war with the New Confederacy in the comfort of your own killer robot tank.

This is absolute, untenable chaos. It cannot be fixed, it must be destroyed completely and then remade with clear intention. This post is about the Tupperware drawer.

If you’re working on your Appendix N Jam entry, and you go peek at what other people have submitted, you may feel disheartened at all the incredible work on display. I did. Do not fret! Keep working! Yours will only add to the awesomeness, and it’s practically guaranteed to be better than mine.

I have decided the word “dude” is short for “deuteragonist”. I will not be researching this claim, nor accepting corrections at this time. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

“Sweeping the whole diarrhea mess under the rug,” is an actual phrase I actually heard an actual person say about the us government today. Truly, these are the salad days.

Me, an abject moron: you know what would be cool for #AppendixNJam ? Hand-drawn forest map spread! Also me, slightly older and wiser: I am an abject moron. #AppendixNJam #wip #myfingersaresore #probablyarthritis

If anyone’s looking for a birthday gift idea for me…

My title is “Azrael in Exile” I told my artist (he is 12) that we were doing a thing about angels. He was unimpressed. I quoted this description of Azrael: his body is made up of tens of thousands of eyes and tongues and bears wings made of blades and chains and hooks. So now we’re pretty excited…
