My #TTRPG VIBE CHECK, featuring the "impossible" combination of streamlined systems AND deep character customization, will release on Black Friday for $5.00 on DriveThruRPG!

Two extra themes will be available as DLC, plus a FREE VERSION of the game for anyone looking to try before they buy!
DO YOU FALL ASLEEP WAITING FOR YOUR TURN? VIBE CHECK PLAYERS DON’T HAVE THAT ISSUE! You deserve better than clunky mechanics, complex dice rolls, and character restrictions slowing things down at the table. That’s why Vibe Check is optimized for maximum fun with minimum effort right out of the gate. Learning the rules?? Takes all of ten minutes. Character builds?? 525 combinations at level 1, and the only reason it takes more than one minute to make a character is because they all look so cool! Rolling dice?? We only do that once per fight. Initiative order?? Your team chooses their own. If you want a game where you can grab your friends and jump right into the action, Vibe Check is the perfect game for you! REASONS WHY YOU NEED THIS GAME INCLUDE: • No stats to memorize; no excessive dice rolls! Make the RPG protagonist you’ve dreamed of or your favorite OC in minutes! • 5 roles, 15 themes, and over 150 abilities let you make character builds ranging from standard RPG fare to unhinged nonsense that no other game will allow! • Make your own strategy and combos! Work with your friends and defeat enemies using guns, swords, magic spells, telekinetic trash compactors, pools of acid, good old rock and roll, angry squirrels, supernovas… • A fully-developed cooking system because my friend Alice made me add one to the game. • Countless hours of fun filled with awesome teamwork, exciting battles, and hilarious interactions. • The best $5.00 you’ve ever spent on a game. VIBE CHECK November 28, 2025 Mark your calendars!

Make no mistake, when the state imprisons a trans woman in a men's prison, it intentionally procures her for the purpose of having her raped. The statistics are extremely clear-cut and consistent in every jurisdiction where they have been collected. There is no way around them

If you’re playing voidlight, please talk about it. Share photos, logs, whatever.

This helps me tremendously understand how people play and react to the game.

My latest test of my #TTRPG Vibe Check brought quality of life improvements to the Chemical and Elements themes, and one of my players showed me his funny damage over time combo with a -40 movement penalty.

Vibe Check will be available on DriveThruRPG on November 28th!

Just starting a First Nation horror movie from Quebec. I stumbled open it randomly and I can’t wait to discover the movie.

It’s called L’inhumain by Jason Brennan!

Thiessen having a good chuckle about his fired liberal colleagues - some of whom he worked with for 15 years - is a good reminder that token conservatives at mainstream news outlets are/were there to destroy them, not to contribute to them.

How to Spot SORA AI Videos with Removed Watermarks.

That popular Video of a Possum being scared while eating Halloween candy, AI. That one has an extra tell, the time stamp numbers in the upper corner, are fucky wucky.

That is how I started to notice the edited out Watermark that is included.
So Im posting this for EDUCATIONAL purposes, so we can all be better at avoiding it. SORA the new AI thing, puts a lil logo on every video it makes, people are already doing things like blurring out the logo, You'll see that on almost every single video here there is a blurry spot, sometimes its on the left mid screen, sometimes the right. A few times the bottom of the video.

Still think Antifa isn't violent? Here's bodycam footage of Antifa founder B.J. Blazkowicz shooting a heroic member of ICE who was just trying to protect this great nation. Thank God we have Blazkowicz's girlfriend in custody.

What about attacking the motors that are being used to grapple? i.e. the electronic components in closest proximity to the grappled mech. Maybe you could do something funny with a powerful electromagnet and inductance.

I hear some tarantulas keep frogs as pets. Do you have recommendations on what kind of frog to get for your tarantula?

This is a fun video, but what's not mentioned is the sheer amount of research and science that goes into Canadian rations. It's serious business, and each one is 2500 to 3200 calories (if you eat everything).

Also, that sheet of paper towel in every pack? 1/2

On Monday, I went over a little bit about the setting of GALLOWS CORNER: one England, many Englands. A post-plague rotten isle, with crown, church, and nobility standing on the necks of the commons.

But what about the game itself? How does it play? What are its core mechanics? Let's find out!

Gallows Corner is the next game from Three Sails Studios after the success of Mappa Mundi, our debut release.

But what IS Gallows Corner? What is a Peasants' Revolt RPG? This week, you'll find out. Today, we're talking setting!
The front cover of Gallows Corner - A Peasants' Revolt RPG. A gallows and noose are silhouetted against a full moon. An ornate border of thorns and brambles extends around the edge of the cover.
