Sorry to be overly sincere for a second, but here's why we decided to persevere through all of the bullshit and take over InfoWars.
There's just gotta be a line somewhere.
Thank you @pablo.show for letting me talk so openly about this.

And this is why I was willing to devote my career to tabletop roleplaying games: they make creators of us all. TTRPGs are DIY in a world otherwise owned by Disney, et al. Like Tolkien, I think that creating emulates & honors our creator*.

Hey guys! #TTRPGs is a rough business, especially in America with health problems, and my friend Ross is trying to get on top of a sudden medical debt. Let's pitch in and help him out?
Like and share, if you can!

Lands of RuneQuest: Sartar is coming later in 2026. And when it does, we're including with the book a brand new 40 page scenario set in Boldhome, the Sartarite capital.
Explore and learn about the vibrant Glorantha setting through play!

People over on Facebook/YouTube/elsewhere on bluesky/reality have been mocking this, but these are all totally genuine and highly advanced GMing techniques pioneered in obscure corners of indie rpg design in the early 2000s.
Let's go through them one by one and learn together.
Late pledging has now carried #CorkBord all the way to 700 backers.
Thank you.
Meanwhile, layout continues, as does the option to get in on a late pledge.

One of my sources for Cthulhu licensees is my own Chaosium Connections article. Thanks to discussions here, I now realize it misses two classic licensees: Steve Jackson in 1995 (CthulhuPunk) and Atlas Games in 1998 (Cults Across America).
It's been time for a v3 for a while but it's crowded!

I worked at @chaosium.bsky.social from 1996-1998 as a Call of Cthulhu editor. But I was aware that we'd already slipped back from being the progressive heart of Cthulhu design thanks to the amazing work being done by our licensee Pagan Publishing, even before Delta Green was released in 1997.

To be honest, licorice is the secret weapon of the nordics.
Name a film or show based on a true story
Headline on Hollywood Reporter that reads ”Paddington 4, Escape From New York' Reboot in the Works”
I misread the headline as one movie and got very excited for a moment…

Get yourself some Bare Metal Gaming, with a lean, mean fantasy game by Mr Tweet himself. Run an entire campaign in six sessions, and get your players to flesh out the details so it's different every time.

Recorded live with the designer @jonathantweet.bsky.social we played an energetic game of 13th Age Glorantha at @the-kraken.bsky.social
Come for the baboon shaman, stay for the troll paso doble, tusk riders, dark rituals, venomous giant insects, an army of ghosts and more!

Seeing some noise that @chaosium.bsky.social Runequest is hard to get into, and I'm once again reminding you that they still publish a much easier entry point to Glorantha, #13thAge Glorantha. And it's got rules for Heroquesting.
In the weeks leading up to Easter, I was working on layouts for a Fighter Wizard Elf, a full ttrpg by the awesome @jonathantweet.bsky.social . it is available in PDF on DriveThruRPG. For a physical copy, attend @the-kraken.bsky.social or look out on All Rolled Up website for future release.
It was a blast playing in your game. Really looking forward to the release of Dragon's Eye.
"45 years from now, as a guest at a Schloss in Germany, you will run a Glorantha game based on your upcoming official sourcebook, using a system that you and your best friend designed, based on the RPG you made together, derived from your work as lead designers on the 3rd & 4th editions of D&D." 1/2
Ran a 13th Age Glorantha game at @the-kraken.bsky.social, using my material from my upcoming Dragon's Eye sourcebook & the online demo set. Great to play w Glorantha fans! Fierce fight v Chaos on the Hill of Orlanth Victorious. The trickster worked wonders while beating on his pots. #ttrpg
