Wait...the NeoPets TTRPG is actually a real thing?!

I thought it was just TTRPG Bluesky was doing a Game Changer-esq improv bit.

Stan Lee wanted to make Ringo Starr into a superhero.

In the late-2000s Stan said he was working on a project that would star Ringo as himself. Alas, the film never came to be....

Bookfolk is a cozy #ttrpg about librarians who must manage a magical library that is both a resource for humans and home to magical beings called Book Sprites.

All dice flavoured.

Just happens that most of them are plastic flavoured.

Ever wanted to play a TTRPG while you play another TTRPG?

Then do I have the game of your (surprisingly specific) dreams!

AP Hearts is a game about Actual Play streamers trying to hold their show together, despite the cast's interpersonal drama.

Help us settle a debate!

Is Spike alive or dead at the end of Cowboy Bebop?

(We debate this in our latest video and its made me curious what the general consensus is)

For someone with no interest in the occult, I sure do know a lot of professional tarot readers.

Escaping Wonderland is an exploration focused #ttrpg that follows people who have fallen into Wonderland while trying to run away from a problem that is haunting them.

However, they must tread carefully as The Abandon lurks in the shadows, waiting for its change to trap them forever...

You know you've been working on a TTRPG too long when the dice start talking to you...

Forget stupid AI overviews.

If Google really wanted to change the game, it would make it so that any software troubleshooting option automatically added the "within the last year" filter.

So then I wouldn't spend 30 minutes skimming tutorials for a 4-year-old version of my software.

The best way to encourage people to use public hiking trails is to have me attempt to film TikTok vidoes on them.

The second I set up my tripod about half the city starts walking past.

Tastes Funny is a horror #solorpg where you try to keep your uncle's debt-ridden circus afloat.

To do this, you'll need to organize shows and keep your performers fed.

But don't worry about the food prices. There are ways to get cheap meat...

Of the many games in this bundle, one is my 106 page Bite Sized Dungeon Remastered.

It's a classic fantasy adventure game engine followed by five complete system neutral hexcrawls.

Go to space, summon a giant crab, fight santa, and more.

Him wearing a suit while doing this is utterly charming.

Imagine him putting on his tie as he kisses his wife goodbye:

"Have a nice day dear, I'm off to the Pingu factory."
Italian voice actor Carlo Bononi was the voice of all of the characters on Pingu. A trained clown by trade, he used a theater technique called grammelot, which consists of "speaking" in a mix of babbled gibberish noises. He improvised all the voices live and unscripted.

Sure, I *could* save everything to OneDrive in the same way I *could* ram a screwdriver into my eye.
Had to reset my PC today.
