Was watching some random spooky horror clip sitting in bed in the dark and quiet with no problem at all and then my dog ripped a monumental fart out of nowhere and made me jump out of my skin 😂

Was already not loving the overall vibe of this book and then the author described a 14 year old like this. Now I'm going to return it and go vomit 🤢

Brain immediately turned this into a holiday one shot for low level players. Local merchant holds a holiday promotion with a bird drop. A miscommunication means he gets an owlbear instead. Owlbear takes some falling damage and is super pissed and loose in the middle of a festival crowd

Vampirism overtaking a hidden community of fey would be a phenomenal horror one shot/short arc. Vampiric pixies? Wall crawling Red Caps with fangs? Mist shrouded Blink Dog-Wolves with red eyes?
All led by an Archfey-Vampire who can only be wounded by silvered cold iron and true sunlight

The best #Batman stories are about Batman being an earnest and slightly inept dad and stories where Alfred has a shotgun. I will not be accepting questions at this time.

People always pick the wrong names. Give me a Lembas Bakery. A Hobbiton B&B. You know a place called "The Halfling's Leaf" would be chill AF
My rule of thumb is if the company is named after something in Lord of the Rings, it’s almost certainly evil.
Since its founding in 2017, Anduril Industries has become one of the hottest companies in a crowded field of defense-tech startup.
Its fast-moving approach comes with its share of setbacks.

Whoever picked #anime for old school Adult Swim was phenomenal. I still watch a lot of anime and even correcting for nostalgia inflation, stuff like Bebop, Trigun, Paranoia Agent, YuYu Hakusho, FLCL, Big O, FMA, Ghost in the Shell: SAC
All head and shoulders above 90% of what comes out today

I am 100% positive that Royal Road and Kindle Unlimited are being used to launder massive amounts of AI writing. There are some actual decent authors burning themselves to death full time to release at these incredible paces but most folks simply can't write 6 books a year in their spare time

Disgusting dungeon: The Silk Caverns. An infamous dungeon that seems to be alive with wet green flesh beneath voluminous curtains of magical silk. Except it's not a dungeon, it's a gross & powerful genie who shrinks adventurers down and releases them into the confines of his robe 🤢🧞♂️👕

Just got my collaborator's copy of The Game Master's Book of Legendary Locations. Thank you so much Phil Sexton on Media Lab for sending it over.
I did 8 black and white hand-drawn battlemaps for it. Tiny, tiny squares of a large legendary places in the book.

I don't understand how, in the year of our Lord Two Thousand and Twenty Five, we are still having discourse that starts with "Someone else plays a #ttrpg in an innocuous way that is different than me and here's why they must be wrong"

Oof, for sure DM'ing one campaign starting in January or February. Probably picking up another when #Drakkenheim ends. And now I've been invited to be a player in another weekly game that resumes after Christmas. The temptation is fierce y'all 😅
