I guess it's Prime Day(s) again, so here are some options if you'd rather not help Jeff Bezos grow even richer. 🧵

First, a couple of Starter Packs of Indie Bookstores to support. (If you are or know of an indie bookstore w/ a Bluesky account that's not listed, let me know.)

#MÖRKTOBER continues with lots of daggers!

Today has been a rushed one for me. Thankfully @adamsalnorth.bsky.social came in clutch with some wonderfully twisted weapons that you can purchase at a semi-reasonable price from Malaiz here.

Finished running @christianeichhorn.itch.io 's Leviathan for Mork Borg last night with a group.

Now I have to come up with a campaign for the 3 Corrupted Heralds who successfully made their way back to the mainland as they start to proclaim the Kraken’s unclean birth.

#morktober: If anyone is doing art and is up for collaborating give me a shout? I can do rules but don't do art haha.

It's half an hour late, and barely proofread, but here is my submission for #morktober day one: Slog Across The Frog Bog to Stop The Frog Bog God

Related #morkborg question: Is there an existing term for very short bare-bones scenario?
Delta Green uses the term "shotgun scenario" and some of them are fantastic. Usually max 1500 words. Seems like a concept that would gel well with MB.

Adam Säl North @adamsalnorth.bsky.social · 7d

Got most of my #morktober submission done on my lunch break. Gunna try and finish it on my way to band practice this evening.
Was trying to write a scenario in 1 hour a good idea? Probably not.
Is SLOG ACROSS THE FROG BOG TO STOP THE FROG BOG GOD any good? Unlikely.
Was it fun? Hell yeah.

News that the @arcdreampublishing.bsky.social Delta Green sourcebook for PISCES is expected late 2026 has me PUMPED.

Having to wait a year to run my converted-for-PISCES Impossible Landscapes campaign will be painful but worth it.

This as a world-building tool to build a pantheon is unironically really interesting. What kind of god cares exclusively about *checks notes*
- Never using semi-skimmed milk
- Owning a green scarf
- Still regularly hanging out with at least one of your childhood friends

I assume you avoid it by cross-examining everyone else in the party to identify the specific set of morals and laws that you inadvertently followed (by process of elimination), so that you can break those laws and return to earth.

Tatterdemalion (moved to the UK) > The Play Is The Thing > Puddles Become Lakes > Impossible Landscapes (moved to a PISCES op in the UK), for the curious.

Going to scatter ImpLan clues and hints throughout the whole thing, align timelines, and shift descriptions of KiY and Carcosa to match ImpLan.

Me: I need to run a Call of Cthulhu one-shot this weekend. I should prep that. It definitely needs to be a one-shot as we won't get another chance to play any time soon.

Also me: What if I make this the start of a campaign that runs through the ages and wraps up with Impossible Landscapes.

You don't necessarily need to say "image of" in your alt text for users to know it's an image. Screen readers will announce that it's an image. But it can help readers to specify if it's a hand-drawn image, Polaroid, infographic, screenshot, chart, map, diagram, or so on.

Been really fun playing with these this week.

A close-up photo of a person's hands holding a classic toy packet. The packaging has a colorful cardboard backing with a clear plastic front, revealing a set of six dice in Google's colors. The text on the front reads "Google Search Console Impressions" and "adult toy for marketers." A red warning label in the corner says, "Warning: Not suitable for clients." In the blurred background, other toys are visible on a shelf.

To be clear, I'm just looking for someone to collaborate with for a bit of a laugh. No this is not a "paid opportunity".
