I had a first-time player join late into my mid-level Shadowdark campaign this past week. Not only has he never played Shadowdark, but he has never played a TTRPG, so I started him with an immovable rod.

51 answers to "What can I do with the immovable rod?" — Revivify Games
Is the immovable rod the perfect tool to teach players how to do OSR-style puzzle solving? I think so. Plus a list of 51 uses for it that I rattled off the top of my head.

Once again I am asking small business owners, artists and artisans, and anyone else who purchases packaging to do it anywhere but Uline
Much of the cardboard and paper goods strewn about our homes are sold by a single private company, with its name, Uline, stamped on the bottom.
Many may not know that a multibillion-dollar fortune made on those ubiquitous products fuels far-right candidates across the country.

That Cardboard Box in Your Home Is Fueling Election Denial
A previously unreported boom in profits for the shipping supply giant Uline has provided the funds for a deeply conservative Midwestern family to bankroll anti-democracy causes around the country.
