Hey remember all those articles about de-extinction? I have a game about it! Play portions of the last (first?) of a species as it lies dreaming in a lab. Relive your past life. Then escape!

I was called an “effing brick wall“ by a competitive classmate when I defended another shot of his in high school mixed soccer
What is the best compliment you ever received? Putting aside whether or not you believed it.

So sad to hear about Guy Ghouse’s passing. Listening to Kalyakoorl in his honour.

Starting the day listening to @newmadras.bsky.social in conversation with @ehronlime.bsky.social about TTRPG & communities in Yes Indie’d — only fitting given that today is our final fall conversation at Auburn about play & communities with @itsquinns.bsky.social this afternoon.

I love the genre mashup. Give me all the Golden Girls/Cthulhus and WWII/Draculas you've got.

But I'm also looking for non-mashups. Sometimes it feels like the industry has an allergy. Westerns without magic. Drama without aliens. Detectives without Cthulhu.

Dare to Play it Straight
The rarest tabletop genre is the simplest one. A call for more anti-mashups.

Loved listening to @ehronlime.bsky.social on Yes Indie'd & then getting pinged about digital downloads for Ithaca in the Cards ahaha. Great interview though, made me nostalgic for good times on gathertown & my biannual join and leaving of the Playtest Zero discord

What's y'all's favorite play-by-post or asynchronous play RPG? I'd like to spin up a game between US friends who are also parents that we could play via Discord server or similar format.

Genuinely, I have friends who have undertaken these programs and seen how much it's done for their confidence, their projects, and their skills. PLEASE don't count yourself out. It's so good.
