✨A QUESTION FOR GAME NERDS✨
How can we use games to envision better worlds, within science and beyond?
At EUphoriaCon, I’ll be teaming up with some amazing game designers for a FREE interactive workshop where we’ll:
1. Share our top tips 🧠
2. Work with you to design your own game! 🎲

Yeah I'm not a big fan of people using wishes as backdoor critique for the GM. I use it more as setting a personal goal or just indicating what I liked from the group as a whole
I always use stars and wishes. A star for each player and a wish for next session (something you're looking forward to seeing more of, something you hope you get to do, a cool move your character has that haven't used yet)

A thing that's cool about our very functional healthcare system is how I am not able to put in an order for repeat prescriptions until I have less than 7 days supply left but it takes up to 10 days to get the prescription filled, so once a month or so I just get to not be medicated for several days👍
We may have escaped the horrors of Elegy, but things aren't much better in The Great Forest.

With all the UKGE AI stuff going round: if you are vending this year and would like a free NO AI used sign for your table, email me (link in bio) so I can vet and add you to the list for one. Lets make these lazy grifters real uncomfortable.
It’s inaccurate to say Mario is brave and Luigi is cowardly
Luigi is afraid of death, so he runs away from danger. Mario is afraid of living, so he runs towards death. Both brothers are cowards in their own way
Don't think I've mentioned recently that I play Mina in this modern adaptation of Dracula! You should listen to it, it's good
(Yes 2004 is modern no it wasn't over two decades ago shut up)
Turns out the answer was hungry. Just wrote a GMless one-pager in which eating cheese is a core gameplay mechanic.
Am I creatively burned out or just hungry
This was such a joy to record! EUphoria are always so supportive and welcoming - I'm always over the moon to be invited to work with them!💖🔥I hope you'll come and join us and get inspired to make your own games from your own cultural treasure troves! 🔥💖

Thank you to the lovely person who bought my outdoor adventure mini zine Tiny Town this morning! The cappuccino I am currently drinking is dedicated to you.
If you too would like to enable my caffeine habit, check out all my TTRPG zines here: michellicopter.itch.io
Jokes on you I would die for Burkowitz
Just reposting this for no particular reason.....
The kids are on one today lads
EUphoria's signature navy blue background with yellow d4 stars and sparkles. EUphoria Con's logo in the top left, a round yellow frame with navy blue background, and a large shooting star made up of yellow d4s streaking from right to left, a light blue tail trailing behind, a light blue broken circle orbiting the star, and two yellow d8s floating on that orbit. Next to the logo, header text, in a yellow-outlined. blocky white font reads 'Saturday May 2nd & Sunday 3rd May. In the centre, a screenshot from the movie Mean Girls where the Plastics pull up in their car and yell 'Get in loser, we're going shopping'. Caption reads 'Get in, loser'. Final text reads 'supported by' next to a Moonshine Adventure Company logo, a sandy yellow moon draped in a purple banner bearing the words 'The Moonshine Adventure Co.' and surrounded by small stars.
All the cool kids are gonna be at twitch.tv/EUphoriaAP and in the EUphoria Discord on the weekend of 2nd and 3rd of May.

For all the grim details and brutal lore we start to weave together into a hideous tapestry in this episode, @michellicopter.bsky.social pulls out an absolute blinder out of the bag that basically heals the entire table and has Matt looking like everything might be ok.
(Spoiler: nothing is ok)
That's a lot of looking at my face Megan, god help ye
Also in this episode: in a display of unmitigated Britishness, all four cast members demonstrate hatred for the ruling class via the medium of talking about them in a very cutting way
I've been informed by two people that a little stunt I pulled towards the end of this episode nearly made them cry.
Perhaps you too will be brought gently the edge of feeling an intense emotion by my antics
Look at what she does. LOOK
And they are such a delight to work with too, a dream in fact ✨️
I didn’t know this, did you? Amazing!
Rejections are an extremely normal part of being an actor to the point that they usually just wash over me at this stage, but woof. I just got one that hit like a punch in the stomach.
Forgot I sharpened my Good Knife yesterday and cut my thumb within seconds of starting to make lunch
On the plus side, it was a very clean cut because the knife was so sharp
The last couple days of a crowdfunder are stressful enough without the website deciding to pull funny pranks on you like refusing to update your total!
If you haven't backed Public Access yet, what are you up to lads, go back it. Time is running out
