Speaking for the out-of-shape-befuddled-aging-redhead-who struggles-with-technology-and-parenting demographic: I never need to hear from this guy again.
don't really think I need to hear from this guy
When a cancelled performer reënters the culture, we expect them to offer us a great work, channelling their newfound clarity into the finest art they’ve ever made. With his new comedy show and début novel, has Louis C.K. met the bar?

I suggest that we start using the phrase "Mr. Beast and the CEO of Salesforce will be there too." as shorthand to explain how little we want to be at any given terrible event.

Unrelated to Thanksgiving I was forced to take stock of a variety of tabletop endeavors and how they fit into my life and damn if life isn’t an embarrassment of riches. Really grateful of how much vibrant, inspiring art we have access to in RPGs and board games right now.

Society is a construct. You can just ask someone to do a ska cover of Faith of the Heart and they'll say "$300 please" and you give it to them and then you have it.

In an unusual twist I’m hosting Thanksgiving this year and nobody can make me cook a turkey in my own home.

Just because I don’t post about it much, doesn’t mean I want you to be surprised when this is revealed to me a Torchship-stan account first and foremost.
*enormous* torchship progress today. as of right now, the core rules section (all the foundational rules everything else keys off of) is *done*. It's 36 thousand words!
We've been hitting our heads against it for a long while because it has to carry *so much game* but it's finally, *finally* done

The original plot upgrade was a 4 cost +3/+3 in blue. Eventually we would overhaul the mechanic in a way that directed us towards wanting more common plot upgrades specifically, so we made several more with unique stats. What surprised me was that the expensive +3/+3 was too strong! #FFGStaff

Two independent goals we had for the set were to support go-wide strategies and to make the initiative minigame more interesting. After struggling with a lot of failed designs for this card, I wondered if we could make an anti-token card that also called out the initiative? #FFGStaff

Designing sets with token units can sometimes feel strange, because common units have a tight complexity budget. It may feel repetitive to have similar variations on "When Played/Defeated: Create a token" but changing the numbers and aspects can make even similar cards feel very different #FFGStaff
