The American people electing Trump after he staged a coup attempt 5 years ago was a nail in the coffin of our democracy. You can rationalize it all you want - But inflation! But wokeness! - but ultimately it was a societal suicide attempt and probably the dumbest collective voting decision ever made

That’s one of the reason I strongly recommend any designer to try to streamline their games to fit on a single piece of paper (or 2 max!) before going all in on the book
Cognitive load is one sneaky thing when playing TTRPGs

I have a weakness for movies that eschew realism in favor of a strong creative vision. True to its namesake, this is a samurai western that looks like it takes place in a stage production of a pop-up book, and I promise you've never seen another film quite like it.

Hi everyone!
Our lovely boy Geo was hit by a car the other day and while he's fortunately got out of it with only a broken hip, giving him the care he needs is a significant and sudden cost.
So we have a crowdfund now, anything you can give or sharing this is amazing thank you
