I’m Alex. I’m Paizo’s Organized Play Coordinator and a part-time union organizer for CODE-CWA. If you want posts about organizing your workplace or unbearable nerdy gaming & media, I’m your guy.

Also, my husband and I have two really cute cats.

October 20th is the order cut off for DIE: LOADED, sequel to the three-time Hugo-nominated DIE. I've pulled together a short primer it with all the info you need on it - what it is, previews, full cover details (check out our sketch variant!) and more. Go nose! Join our party. It's an experience.

Is it “touching the third rail” or is it “electing to crash the plane yourself so at least you control where it lands”?

Much to ponder!

Many years ago I did a show called Sagas of Sundry.

It was immersive horror, great storytelling, and reality show style skill challenges.

Now I want to bring it back, but call it Tales of Dread.

But I need your help. So I'm taking this project to Kickstarter.

DID YOU KNOW we put out an official Pathfinder dating game? It's a quick and fun party game about dating monsters. The vampire is so sexy. The genie is a trans guy. You can even date an OOZE. You know you want to play this.
Pathfinder Monster Match by Joe Pasini, held up in front of a bookcase. The box features art of various hot monster people.

Getting to show you all this cover and announce that VILLAIN is officially coming out in May of next year is such a joy and a relief i don't even know how to express it.

the cover for a book entitled Villain by Natalie Zina Walschots. the cover is a bright magenta with dark blue and teal lettering for the title, and the author's name is in yellow. there is an image of the silhouette of a woman carrying a cane, surrounded by the silhouettes of five superheroes.

Called the doctor to get a receipt for my surgery, and they called back saying "hey good news, we owe you a refund!"

Which is great! I love spending less money! But...the procedure was six weeks ago. What would've happened if I hadn't called? You know how to find me!

unions are scary until you realize it's literally hanging out with your buds and making plans for how to continue hanging out with your buds

Unions were a scary thing for many people 7 years ago (myself included).

It's incredible how much people have come to realize how important and powerful they are.

Unions aren't perfect because unions are just collectives of people and people are messy and complicated.

But they're worth dealing with all that mess because the alternative is not being a union and that's just silly.

Across the top of the image is the "Pathfinder Quest" logo, and across the bottom of the image is the text, "No Game Master. No endless prep.

Proud to be a Luddite.

From this article: www.smithsonianmag.com/history/what...
Screenshot from an article on smithsonianmag.com that reads 'As the Industrial Revolution began, workers naturally worried about being displaced by increasingly efficient machines. But the Luddites themselves “were totally fine with machines,” says Kevin Binfield, editor of the 2004 collection Writings of the Luddites. They confined their attacks to manufacturers who used machines in what they called “a fraudulent and deceitful manner” to get around standard labor practices. “They just wanted machines that made high-quality goods,” says Binfield, “and they wanted these machines to be run by workers who had gone through an apprenticeship and got paid decent wages. Those were their only concerns.”'

"simply play more than one game at a time, Alex" no. that's not how my brain works. I must choose one and complete it or give up.

And I'm still in the middle of Pokemon Brilliant Diamond. Do you see the issue.
