“I Thought I Heard Your Voice Just Then” is a new eight-page comic drawn by @jlaguff.bsky.social and written by myself. You can read it below or purchase it on a pay-what-you-want basis on Itch.io (which I recommend, Bluesky compression being what it is):

Meguey and Vincent Baker'a development of PbtA as an open, hackable, space is something a generation of game designers owe a debt to. And now, we have new Apocalypse World to look forward to, which is just such a good game!!!

I try not to let my personal tastes affect my students' work too much, but for their final board games, I have a team making a fish romance game and one making a fish mafia game.
The titles they were (jokingly?) considering are "don't sleep with the fishes" and "sleep with the fishes.

Some previews from ARMOR, my solo show appearing at Stranger Factory alongside @leslielevings.bsky.social's solo show INSIDES.
(I did joke about naming my show OUTSIDES but couldn't go through with it.)

It’s the seamless & un-self-conscious transition between the material & the meta which really defined Jim Henson’s approach to the characters & craft of The Muppets. Post-Jim, both The Jim Henson Company & then Disney have hidden the performer & the magic of performance. A shame.
