We had a solid plan to deal with the horrific existential threat... and then Hamda aka: @ickbat.bsky.social opened his big mouth and it all went wrong!

The playtest pack for Carnival Tenebris is done and player handouts are off to some light layout.
It took a couple of days longer than expected and I am exhausted. But I am so close to opening this.
and that playtest pack is about 120 pages so you are basically getting a game!

Discovered yesterday that Lovecrafesque has an Italian Wikipedia page!
Mind blown
(there isn't a English wikipedia page for it, only Italian and something about that appeals to me)

A lot of the people terribly worried about the echo chamber of social media are awfully quiet about Claude telling everyone how clever and insightful they are.

This was probably my favourite band when I was 14-16 so I loved this article.
I did not love realising it has been 35 years since Levelling the Land came out. What happened to the time?
I don't have the patience to get good at layout but I sure appreciate everyone who hones this craft!

well I can't unhear this now
A flatscreen display on a "smart" water fountain, demanding to be reconnected to the internet.
In 1999, I was playing a decker in Shadowrun, and tried to distract a guard by hacking a water fountain to overflow, and my GM said "why would a water fountain be on the network? That's fucking stupid. No you can't try."
Well it's 2026 and I just want you to know, Phil, that I FUCKING CALLED IT!
'And sin, young man, is when you treat people as things. Including yourself. That’s what sin is.'
I never got the stock boomer "I hate my spouse" humor. Whaddaya mean I get to see my favorite human every day? We sleep in the same bed, we're always there for each other, we do our favorite activities together, and they're there when I wake up? Fuckin' awesome!

The latest episode of Ex Tenebris is up! The investigation is hotting up, with tense interrogations, a noir detective monologue (sort of), the walls of reality breaking down and another letter from the mysterious Black Gate serial killer.

I'm on a strict budget so I limited my purchases to one from each store: Wreck This Deck by @beckyannison.bsky.social and Two-Hand Path by @wilkiescandylab.com . Very nice to have physical copies of both!
Thank you! I am honoured.
lol, if you imprison bandits like that they will get out
Hang on a minute! We have raccoons in the UK!!!???
Thanks ♥️
I think LOVECRAFTESQUE and MAGIC OF INVENTORYING, while wildly different in themes and tones, are both within an exciting storytelling space where TTRPG and board games enthusiasts can come together.
I hope more games will deliver that. 😊
For the Queen, Fall of Magic also come to mind.
Hang on a minute... is writing evocative #ttrpg setting, 90% cool names for things?
probably time for me to listen to the whole lot again then!
Congratulations!
