I am a tabletop gamer, a lover of horror, and a failure by most metrics. Not all of them though. He/Him.

"How did you get into TTRPGs?"

My very first pistol was a cap-and-ball Colt
Shoot as fast as lightnin' but it loads a mite slow
It loads a mite slow and I soon found out
It can get you into trouble but it can't get you out
"How did you get into TTRPGs?"

Aboard a shipwreck train
Give my umbrella to the Rain Dogs
For I am a Rain Dog, too.
"How did you get into TTRPGs?"

I met her in a club down in old Soho.
I asked her her name and in a dark brown voice she said, 'Lola.'

You’ve been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who’s coming to save you?

Dunno if I get saved, but it will be hilarious.

Some say the world will end in shoggoths,
Some say in ice.
From what I know of horrors plastic
I think shoggoths are fantastic
But if it had to die again
I think I know enough of pain
To say the numbing spite of ice
Is also great
And would suffice.

Even if I wasn't an M. Rickert superfan, I'd tell anyone this is $2 no reader will regret spending!
We're revisiting our back catalogue and the ONLY original novel we've published—M. Rickert's "The Shipbuilder of Bellfairie." This exquisite mystery is an amalgam of Frankenstein, and A Confederacy of Dunces. We want you to read it. The eBook is on sale for just $2.

Fourth or fifth time. No change in my mental state.
once again I'm GMing tonight, and once again there's a part of me that wants to flee.

It'll be the third time running Pills, Spills, amd Cosmic Chills.

I snatch purses, I piss in churches, I work the burners
In Lucifer's furnace, sip the blood of a virgin out of a thermos
I gun buck 'em, fuck a fist, the Razor Ruddock cut a wrist
I cut 'em, gut 'em like a fish and let 'em lay in gutter piss

"One must imagine the Shark Nonce happy."

I just watched the horror movie Dangerous Animals. It was surprisingly solid. Properly entertaining and suspenseful.

It's getting cold, so it's time for lentil stew.

Actually it's kinda always time lentil stew.

An effect of the sun setting at (checks) 3:57 PM is that 6 PM feels like late at night.

It's an amazing feeling, being part of something that only one or two people have read, until December 4th, when you get your chance to read what I've been banging on about for months and months and months.

Yesterday I was at the dentist. No drilling and my pocket was only picked lightly. Then I went to a game store and didn't buy anything. That's a win.

So, I've watched three episodes of PLURIBUS. I'llput my thoughts in (non-spoilery) list form.

1) It makes sense to turn to the great Rose Nylund in a time of distress.

Let's raise some money for Oz! I've got a Christmas Red Gobbo, painted by me, with some flame effect, that could be yours. I'll start it as a blind auction, DM me with offers over £50 and the highest by the end of the weekend wins. I'll pay for postage in the UK and all the money goes to Oz.

New (to me) stand up comedian Larry Dean gives me hope for the art form. He manages to do a "I like my coffee like I like my men"-joke that had me giggling like a fool.
