We've had a few enquiries come in after chatbots told researchers that we hold documents we don't actually look after so this is particularly relevant. If you're ever unsure, contact us directly or use our catalogue, linked below.

much as we appreciate the trend to streamline wargame rules I'm just reading a new one where on page 1 it kicks things off talking about individual arcs of vision and how prey animals have a wider (270 degrees) range than hunters, no idea where it's going from here but I have to say I'm down with it

so many of the small indignities of daily life come from us being denied the ability to tell a rich man in a tech company to fuck off. minesweeper has microtransactions. paid services have ads. the opt out says maybe later. the drive thru is a broken chatbot. your car is an ipad. fuck off! fuck off!

Massive dump of all the art I've made this year. I think this year is the most improvement I've ever made as an artist.

New post! This time about a way to navigate hexflowers that I've been exploring this evening, and applications for a friends' dreadful OSR game that she's working on.

Have a look through this gallery to see one of the coolest examples of role specialisation in the insect world 🐜

They live inside twigs with small circular entrances & these workers have evolved heads the perfect shape to block those entrances - effectively, they are living doors!

A poem by Michael Ondaatje which reads as follows: After shooting Gregory this is what happened I'd shot him well and careful made it explode under his heart so it wouldn't last long and was about to walk away when this chicken paddles out to him and as he was falling hops on his neck digs the beak into his throat straightens legs and heaves a red and blue vein out Meanwhile he fell and the chicken walked away still tugging at the vein till it was 12 yards long as if it held that body like a kite Gregory's last words being get away from me yer stupid chicken

“Take your shoes off and throw them in the lake.” That’s easy for Kate Bush to say. She’s probably got loads of shoes and much easier access to her nearest lake than I have.

So this happened…

I am White Wolf’s new Lead Game Designer!

I will figure out how to post the whole text here, but there is a picture with the announcement and the alt text has the full thing!

Fake it until you make it as they say. And I’ve been playing the role of a TTRPG game designer for about 12 years! Now the mask has become my very nature. I am going to play the Masquerade game with vampires, for real. After years of working as an independent game designer, like a good Anarch, I joined the Camarilla. I am now the Lead Game Designer at White Wolf, the legendary publisher that made me realize TTRPGs could be about a lot more than killing monsters. I can be one of them, and surprisingly be even more human! The first book I ever read in English was Vampire: The Dark Ages, and now I get to work as a game designer full time for the first time with the World of Darkness? I couldn’t be happier! To live and breathe the universe of Vampire, Werewolf, Mage, Hunter, Changeling, Wraith, and all other games every day, and be able to collaborate in shaping its future is a dream come true. These games were formative in my TTRPG industry, in the Brazilian TTRPG community, and are incredibly relevant to this day. Especially these days I would say. And with me I am bringing my game design philosophy of “playing more with less” to help make the game more accessible while honoring the more than 30 years of World of Darkness! I just want everyone to enjoy the game as much as they can, with as little effort as they can afford. Oh, and I am still an Anarch at heart, don’t worry!

I just don't think you can structure a society around a scenario where half the population seem to be posting venmo or PayPal links on social media all day so they can buy food and meds and the other half are paying $750 a year to film their family's piss and shit

Game designers, please respond to this post with:

number of games published (number of games made)

So for me it would be:

3 (12)

Estimate if you're not 100% on the numbers, this is vibes science.
