Predator Badlands swept me up so hard I had to watch all 9 Predator movies last week
Without saying Sinners, name your film of the year.

This! This single gif is also so darn awesome.
Today we just got 100 new followers and a bunch of people saying "whoa I've never heard of this" re: the game we have been thumping into the ground for the last 3 years by posting one gif from our earliest demo. If you think you post too much about your game: you probably don't!

Oooh I love seeing folks’ stories… can’t wait to see the « dogs » 🐶
Today I played #TheZoneRPG by @raphdamico.bsky.social with @silliet.bsky.social @strangeworlder.bsky.social. We had a superb eve of co-creation, surreal events & a lot of Type 2 fun!
Also, the true horror were the dogs we made along the way.
The #ActualPlay video will be released later this year.

Amen amen amen. I think a lot about how the pursuit of knowledge connects us to each other and to the immense systems we are part of. Curiosity leads to awe in the most unexpected places; it’s one of the coolest things about being human.

Just found out Rob Wieland passed away. My heart goes out to his family. (There’s a GoFundMe in this article to support them in this time of need.)
He was a storyteller of our community, breathing life into it by sharing his love, helping so many to find a way in.
Rob,I’ll miss you dearly!

Rob Wieland wasn't just a ttprg guy, he wrote great nerdy themed articles of Milwaukee Record (one of the greatest Milwaukee indie news outlets)
