One of my favorite things about DMing is coming up with bespoke monster abilities.

Mainly so I get to say things like "You have angered the Marmot. It uses an attack called 'the Wheel of Pain!'"

Highly recommend this BTW. Players are very capable these days. They can tank 40 points of damage.

Happy Labor Day. Today we celebrate the gains won for us by the power of the union and organized labor. Minimum wage! (though it needs to be higher). Weekends! (Though they need to be longer). Sick leave! (it should be unlimited).

Solidarity forever and power to the workers.

I can't be the only nitpicky graphic designer who just hates the way they handle text on these cards, right? It's so hard to read. It's so unintentional. It's over the guy in green's face? It's rubbing up against the cloud line? Sheesh.

Over the past three months, I learned everything I could about Final Fantasy – from its rich history to its massive cultural impact and the many in-jokes shared among its fans.

In time, I understood why it has captured the hearts of players everywhere.

i may not be from LA, but i have lived here for 15 years and i love this place with all my heart. LA is my home. the city is its people, and it is so beautiful and diverse because of immigrants.

immigrants are LA. LA is america. immigrants are america. abolish ICE.

Between the fires and these protests, I hope this year teaches everyone that most of the shit talking you hear about California and more specifically, LA, comes from racists and gentrifying transplants. Most people love living here and would do anything to protect it.

I just got to Act 3. It's an amazing game that proves that a modern turn-based Final Fantasy is completely possible.

Go out and see a movie, go out and see a play, go out and hang with your friends - just go out. You're going to be home A LOT.

Save your hate for injustice and inequality. Don’t spend a second of the time you have hating on a band or a TV show, or really anything that might bring others joy.

I love how every HBO show promises "a peek behind the scenes" after the credits and then it's 4 minutes of the showrunners and actors describing the plot of the episode you just watched
