Order of Hermes has always felt like my home. I think House Bonisagus, to be boring.

Because all of them are embedded in organisations and leaking sensitive information to the other side.

But Brian, if we made sure everybody had enough to live then people I don't like might benefit! No, no, much better for everyone, including me, to sit a mere unfortunate coincidence away from death. You know, like if Damocles chose the sword in advance.

You're right. I should leave a review. Thanks for the CTA

Nah, because remember when Jesus' family fled Israel to avoid Herod's wrath? They crossed the border using legal routes and assimilated seamlessly into Egyptian culture. (Sarcasm, by the way)

I look forward to your changing the intricate wizard rune casting mechanics for a more simplistic hack-and-slash roguelike. Gotta get that mass appeal up, right?

Honestly, Cosmos has been done, first by Sagan and then by Degrasse-Tyson. I'd prefer to see a climate-focused follow up that focuses on ENSO, AMOC, palaeoclimate etc.

Call it Atmos. Hank, get on it. And hmu, I've got a PhD in Palaeo and I know plenty of people who could consult.

When you inevitably come to Yorkshire, come visit Hideout in Pudsey. They do a selection of beers by Wilde Child that are delicious. I get it: I too have been disappointed by beer purporting to taste like cake. Wilde Child have managed to get it right.

I guess hashtag not spon or whatever.

Abrams isn't a man so much as he's an avatar of cultural entropy. If you make something popular enough eventually you will die or sell it off and and a person in thick rimmed glasses whose main artistic vision is that he loves to have meetings will take it and sandblast it until it's nothing. I hate to see this happen here but maybe it's good that this happened. Maybe every franchise should collapse into a version of itself that makes shareholders nod and shake each others' hands. We should learn to speak in a language that rich people who don't dream can't comprehend.

D&D alternative Nimble returns to Kickstarter with a big expansion Designer Evan Diaz talks about respecting everyone's time and making memories

I'm trying to give indie TTRPGs some love on Polygon but it's tough because they don't do the sort of traffic as D&D stories. But one of the best part of my job is talking to game developers about their passion for the hobby. Here's a piece on Nimble: www.polygon.com/nimble-dunge...

Outstanding. A triumph for liberty and against unrestrained state power. The government should be ashamed of having to be forced into this position.

Like, how fucking cool is it that you can make content that you are pretty sure will lose money though? That's just testament to either how far you have come and how great what you have built is, or how shit capitalism is for creative people without that security. Or both. Both? Both.

www.smbc-comics.com/comic/socrates @smbccomics.bsky.social nails it. I would like to see @theabigailthorn.bsky.social give a take not on what philosophers would think of modern society, but on what effect modern society would have on the works of the philosophers. Was Kant red-, or black-pilled?

@bonniepatterson.bsky.social probably super cheeky of me to do this, but as you're the narrative designer for a game I would love a chance to audition to voice on it. I can send reels if you're open to it?

The neuroscience of Romeo and Juliet: an fMRI study of acting The current study represents a first attempt at examining the neural basis of dramatic acting. While all people play multiple roles in daily life—for example, ‘spouse' or ‘employee'—these roles are all facets of the ‘self' and thus of the ...

pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC... interesting article. I'm not a neuro sci guy, I'm a climate sci guy but I am an actor of a sort. Really interesting that from a brain-activity perspective acting appears to relate more to turning off the self, and less to adding traits to the self.

Twiglet Imperium

Popular marmite-flavoured snacks look to take over the galaxy. In keeping with the theme of slightly diminishing the original, the game only takes 5 hours to play.

Scionish

The gods are real, they had children and divorces, and they remarried. You play the step-kids of these divine parents-by-marriage. Take advantage of your birth-parent's new divine partners to guilt your way into some decent nepotism.
