Season 1 of Slow Horses was fantastic. Crushed the whole thing over the past few days (between the PAXU trip). It gives my brain a lot of ideas for gritty spy stories and how they can play out.

PAXU was great fun. I had the chance to run Delta Green for some great players. Perhaps even a few first timers (the weekend is a bit of a blur).
As ever is the policy, there was a housefire, gunfire exchanged between agents, a bedroom filled with loose skin, and some handmaid "corn" dollies.

Just a friendly reminder as we go into the holidays:
Folks don't have to explain to you why they don't drink.
If you offer them a drink and they decline, don't ask them why. It's not your business.
Just offer them something without alcohol to drink instead. And move on.

The arc of life is funny sometimes and painful other times. There are also times when life balls them up together and delivers it so effectively you couldn't get away from it if you tried.

Still happening. Idiots.
It must be stupidity, as no one can claim ignorance anymore, but I still see artists here boosting slop rather than real art. It's an easy fix for me - the block button works real well.
