I swing both ways.
Violently.
With a sword.
And an image of Goemon Ishikawa XIII with the bi pride flag

I'm not joking when I say mRNA technology is more important than "AI" and it's a tragedy we're throwing billions into one while our government is aggressively defunding the other.

Revolution in technicolour: An interview with Tim Denee, creator of Blades ’68 - Spring A revolutionary setting for a revolutionary game Ten years ago, John Harper’s Blades in the Dark set a new precedent for tabletop role-playing games with a fresh system that emphasizes politics, puts ...

Had a lovely time interviewing the very sharp @olddog.games about his incredible sequel to Blades in the Dark for @springmagca.bsky.social. Blades ‘68 is both radical and extremely rad—it’s just what a work of art should be.

the human made icon

the human made icon

I want to be a better steward for the Human Made icon. If you have any ideas on how I can get the word out for it more please let me know. Do you think game retailers would be interested in stickers they could pass out? folks interested in pins? What can I do to support you using this icon? a zine?

A splash image for "Mooncroft Manor." Two figures huddle in a dark space full of antique objects. One holds up a flame for them to see by; the other embraces their companion—but holds a knife behind their back, ready to betray them. The image is rendered in cold colors, except for the bright pink light of the magical flame.

Thank you! Some of these are preexisting groups in the wider setting mythos (in some cases not even devised by me originally), others are debuting in this campaign.

The main culture here has an Iberian (Spanish/Arabic) cultural base, and the 2nd biggest are French Space Capitalists, among others.

Excuse you, it's 35 - 48 if you also count the citizenry of the 13 city districts.

You have more in common with the people of Iran than you do with anyone in this administration, any member of the technocracy, anyone who is profiting from this war, or any billionaire. When you see Iranians forming human chains outside key infrastructure sites, you should feel a sense of kinship.

Official Launch Trailer for The House of Hikmah | Arrives April 8th, 2026
Official Launch Trailer for The House of Hikmah | Arrives April 8th, 2026 YouTube video by Lunacy Studios

I've wished for Arab-made games about Arab mythology for so long, and despite assisting on the project I still can't believe there's one swinging for the fences this hard. House of Hikmah is something very needed in a time where the world would rather erase us.

“If you use <insert grammatical pet peeve here> then I know your writing was done by AI.”

Cool, and if you use AI paranoia to try and shame a writing style you don’t like, then I know you’re a bit of a cunt.

Marathon Doesn't Work On Linux Bungie blocking Marathon on Linux is a detriment to both the series' history and the growing number of Linux users.

I am jumping on the bandwagon and writing a blog post about Marathon. Except instead this is a post about gaming on the Linux ecosystem and how game developers are hurting themselves by blocking Linux users, because I can't play Marathon on my computer.

With the HP trailer dropping tomorrow, here's the whole deal:

If you watch the show, hell even just the trailer, I will think less of you. I will dislike you. I will think you don't care about trans people.

That's it. It's been years. There's no wiggle room. No qualifiers. You care or you don't.

A cover for a ttrpg supplement called "The 106th Astir Squadron Grimoire". It's fairly abstract but conveys an occult, mysterious, magical atmosphere.

everyone gets mad at me when I point out that a 2050 date in a video game setting is, assuming current dev cycles, going to read to players who buy it on sale as “like a decade from now”

see?
here's the thing. A lot of people are like, the earth is fucked, it's beyond salvation, it's hit the tipping point, but time and time again we see that if we just fucking fixed the problem, it rebounds so incredibly fast. Imagine what could be done if people actually cared
