Finally! I’ve run a whole 2-year campaign of this RPG including 2 of these hardcover adventures between the funding of the KS and reviving my physical copies.
And I’ll do it again. Dolmenwood is possibly my favorite version of D&D I’ve played.

I’m maybe 5-6 hours into Luigi’s Mansion 3. It’s the first game of the series I’ve played and it is an absolute blast. Feels like it was designed for me.

I'm surprised at the reviews for this, which I didn't read until after the fact. This is miles from his best work, but I found it super fun anyways, with lots of small touches that felt very Wright indeed. It was pretty faithful to the book. The changed ending felt unavoidably tidy and a bit rushed.
Running Man tonight!

Started watching the directors cut of Napoleon last night. The pacing is much improved so far but Napoleon himself is still by FAR the most boring character, an absolutely baffling decision.

Final weekend yardwork for 2025 happening today. Picking up the last few maple leaves to dump on the flower garden. I enjoy autumn yardwork quite a lot these days. Put on some tunes, make a bonfire, bask in the brisk fresh air.

Frankenstein was great. I was only disappointed that we didn't get any mention of the tower's great knockers.

Finished reading Baudolino. An odd, funny, and sad adventure with some potent themes, but just a little too dry and esoteric to recommend generally.
