Disaster transbian, githyanki simp, cursed by the Azure Bonds, and a professional unicorn wrangler.
I am not quite done with it yet, but The Wyvern’s Spur by Kate Novak and Jeff Grubb is an absolutely crackpot D&D novel and I love it. It’s rather different from Azure Bonds, but Giogi Wyvernspur is fantastic.

You ever watch a review for an RPG where it feels like not only has the reviewer—in spite of their claims to the contrary—never played not only the RPG they are reviewing, but quite possibly RPGs in general?

Because there's been some talk about not having enough content creators in the #Pathfinder2e space on Youtube I'd like to raise my hand and submit for your viewing my video on basic encounter design for the system.

Not begging for views but the numbers encourage more of it.

Every time I hear news about Winds of Winter I can’t help but think, why do people still care about this?

My boss is at the shop today for a few hours—not to be open to business but just as a place people can go play games if they need someplace to be for Thanksgiving. She messaged me saying she's getting so many calls asking if we're open for business and wanted me to check Google about our hours.

Squaring off against a misguided priest doing terrible things in a point-and-click adventure game when my character says she'll stop him, and he very simply, very humbly, from behind bars, says "You can try, but I have God on my side."

Chills.

Content specifically for Lenny is a largely underserved market, but I am glad to see @anna-belle.bsky.social innovating in that space. Y’all should follow her.

God damn. 5 episodes in and Pluribus just keeps getting better.

Looking over Eberron: Forge of the Artificer and one thing that has always irked me about the Dragonmark Houses is their naming conventions.

Breven d’Deneith, Yoren d’Ghallanda, Ulara d’Jorasco… what the hell is my mouth supposed to do with that d’? (😏)

I’ve been playing D&D for 30 years and only just now, just this moment, did I realize the “minute” in Melf’s Minute Meteors is referring to their SIZE and is thus pronounced my-NOOT. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Metagaming is great and leads to more satisfying play in many contexts and what people actually hate is what Blades in the Dark calls "being a weasel"

Seeing a number of videos saying how D&D really needs to be played weekly and… yeah I’m kind of in agreement.

You might be able to get away with biweekly 8-hour sessions but otherwise I feel you really need that kind of commitment if you’re all serious about the game.

We are down to our last 10 copies of Community Radio at #PAXUnplugged. If you are thinking about picking up a copy, grab it soon!

Me a few years ago: Y'know, they should release shows slowly again instead of dropping a binge. It doesn't give people room to breathe and discuss.

TV: *Starts releasing weekly episodes again*

Me: *Checks discussions*

Me: Y'know... maybe releasing all the eps at once is good, actually...

My main thought on Pluribus is that I am far more interested in the journeys of Carol and the world than I am in Carol "solving the problem".

If she just "solves the problem" then the show is garbage. Personally I have more faith in it than that.

It's increasingly clear to me that a staggeringly high number of people simply view TV shows as plot delivery devices and have no thoughts on artistry.

Did you know that big studios monitor piracy? Don't you fucking dare pirate this shit. Do not hate watch through piracy. JK Rowling is a disgusting human being that funds and encourages the hurt, pain and death of my fellow trans peers.

Support media that actually deserves our time and money.

I’d also want to record any other speakers on a completely separate audio layer so that I could edit their vocals separately from mine. E.g., record discord separately from my mic vocals.

Does anyone have advice for setting audio up for recording on different tracks in OBS to avoid issues in editing? I want my vocals on a separate recording than game sound, but haven’t done this before. I suspect that would make it easier to fix vocals without harming game sounds 🤔

There’s of course plenty of material out there willing to tell DMs that they are not the players’ adversary, they are supposed to mutually tell a story.

Yet—and this will be no surprise to anyone who has been following me—I think PLAYERS desperately need this lesson.
