Absolutely incredible.

NASA Astronaut Reid Wiseman, who commanded Artemis II, took this footage from the far side of the Moon with his iPhone.

Anyone know a graphic designer in the #TTRPG space? I have a presentation problem with Orbit Punk and I need help fixing it.

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!

"But little isn't nothing
And a footprint is enough to bring
The algorithm into town"

I want to weave this quote from Clipping's Night of Heaven into Orbit Punk.

TTRPGs where your vehicle has way more stats than the character driving it are wasted on giant robots. I want a game about Prohibition bootleggers where the inadvisably hot-rodded Studebaker you use to outrun the cops has a 3-page character sheet and the mobster behind the wheel fits on a postcard.

TTRPG Mechanics Model: Granularity, Modularity, Connectivity, Fidelity Understanding TTRPG Design Through Four Overlapping Scales When discussing tabletop RPGs, terms like "crunch" or "narrative focus" frequently arise. While useful, these discussions can become muddled, lacking a structured way to examine what makes each game unique. To frame this conversation, we

Alright #RPGDesign nerds, let's get into some real nitty gritty! Let's talk about some different ways of looking how mechanics are built, in a sense more finely defining crunch and genre emulation. What are your thoughts on this?

I need to make some tweaks, but I'll be play testing it again next weekend. I'll ping you when I do. I would love to see an objective third party play the game. I have been the GM for every instance so far.

We might have blown past our expectations a little!

The Beta Version of TACTICS MEMORIAM releases on a pay-what-you-want basis on Monday! We’d rather anything you would give go towards the Kickstarter (opening its pledges soon!) to fund the full book.

So enjoy yourself with what we have made :)

The implications (for those who do not understand why we're all suddenly freaking out) is that in the US, if you do not pay the fee to register your copyright, you do not have the same legal protections. @courtneymilan.com did a good thread about this but tl;dr: it impacts the AI lawsuit a lot.
