Trump and his cronies can try to dress this up, but it is an illegal act of war to replace Maduro and grab Venezuela's oil for his billionaire buddies.

#ttrpg ok, so we have a grumpy ancient ent, a murderous teenage girl protecting the ent and a village full of invading cannibal barbarians. What a mess.

A couple of favorite quotes from last night
"this is close quarters combat. I need a small weapon... like my battle axe!"
"Hey, is all this blood mine, or someone else's? I'm feeling woozy..."
(cleric and bard, both down and barely alive) "I swing at the worg's knees and hope it ignores me!"

#ttrpg The party met a very special Ent, as well as a party of barbarians sent to fell the tree. Once they drove off the barbarians and sacrificed some teeth to the tree, gifts were dispensed.

Birthday party for the 4 YO grand daughter today. She loves her new stuffed plush Shoggoth, a companion to the rainbow Cthulhu I got her last year. She sleeps with little Cthulhu every night; the Old Ones are pleased!

Besides the normal TGiving meal, do you have any favorites or traditional dishes?
I like to make pearled onions in cream sauce.
My dad used to insist on mashed turnips or rutabagas. No one ate much of those, but they were always on the table!

#ttrpg ran my Halloween game tonite. Redfear the Headless Giant and the Gazebo of Doom. Aggressive vines with faces, floating jack o lanterns with magic missiles, and an undead giant for kicks.

It is often said that you should choose your friends wisely, and that is true. A true warrior knows that the reverse is true, too. Your friends have also chosen you. Strive always to live honorably and prove they chose wisely.

#ttrpg every year at Halloween one of our GMs runs a themed one-shot adventure. He crushed it this time. We were scruffy dirt poor city kids going through a "haunted house" set up by our main adventuring party for the Fall Harvest Festival. Hilarious and great role playing by all.

#ttrpg our intrepid adventurers burned the enemy army's supply dump and continued northward. A blizzard sent them looking for cover; a nearby cave beckoned. However they are not the only ones who sought shelter in this cave...
