Did the 25 games about me thing. I’m sure they’d be different in a year but still fun.

Maybe I'm old-fashioned but I think it's cool and fine if video games look like video games
Some of the best video games I ever played looked like just like video games.
Speaking of the spirit of Conan, have you seen New Edge Sword & Sorcery? www.backerkit.com/c/projects/b...
The first issue of Scribe & Sigil is out! We are a new APA consisting of members of TriAPA which ran for 2.5 years. We tend to lean towards S&S but all aspects of speculative fiction are welcome. Now is a great time to contribute if you’re interested in making a zine!

Love to see pics of gaming sessions with old paperbacks on the table.
Unfortunately many of them didn’t buy this, they replaced their souls with it.
[“Fantasy is escapist, and that is its glory. If a soldier is imprisoned by the enemy, don’t we consider it his duty to escape? The moneylenders, the know-nothings, the authoritarians have us all in prison; if we value the freedom of the mind and soul, if we’re partisans of liberty, then it’s our plain duty to escape, and to take as many people with us as we can.”]
Ursula le Guin, on the accusation that fantasy is an escape from reality
Thank you so much!
