Part 2 of the collaboration with Terence Tao on the cosmic distance ladder is now out. It covers how we first learned the distances to planets, stars, and galaxies far, far away.

Printing Shelter from the Storm as Majestic is such a dick move! Pretty much half of all decks run Sink Below and its common! SftS is similar and will rival it in popularity. Sink is <1$ and SftS will probably be like 50-100$ #fabtcg

Somehow I'll be running my first #pf2e session today. I can't remember even half the rules I've read. I'll just keep it simple and see how it goes. They've had a week to think about their characters already but we still might not make it past character creation today

After yesterdays #40k match we started thinking of running a narrative campaign, not just with crusade rules, but maybe with a game master. I wonder if I can find some premade resources for making/running it that we could utilize

Told my #ttrpg playgroup we would play a short pathfinder game next. I'm thinking of running Sunless Citadel since I happen to have the physical copy of the module. Converting the module to pf seems easy enough. Just gotta learn pathfinders rules firsssst

Been #cycling about 3.6k km total this year, which is a new record for me. Today was cold and dark when I got back. I miss summer already

Finished the Iron King by Maurice Druon. It was a #book my brother suggested to me. Apparently George R.R. Martin calls it "the original game of thrones". It was alright, but I think the actual historical events are the real interesting part, not the book itself. To read the series or not? hmm maybe

Chaos vanquishes all! The playgroup still disagrees which edition is best, some prefer 10e, some prefer 5e.

Gonna play some 40k tomorrow, my csm smorgasbord army will be krumpin' some orks and necrons, dark gods willing. It's my fourth time playing 10e, we'll see if we can convince one of our playgroup members that 10e doesn't suck. #40k

Finished reading A Fire Upon the Deep by Vernor Vinge and really enjoyed it! The book has some really interesting alien races like group minds and sentient plants on wheels. Good #book, good #scifi

Ran my first game of #Mothership for my gaming group! Played all saturday and through all 4 scenarios of Another Bug Hunt! Lots of fun and a couple failed panic rolls 😀 #ttrpg

I'm always impressed by pro level real-time strategy gameplay, a game genre I'm a complete noob in, as I can't multitask at all. Maybe one day I can learn this power of multitasking. I do like RTS campaigns though, great for learning the game #RTS

The VTT-only Ember ttrpg on Kickstarter is interesting, but I don't know who is it for? A GM who wants a crunchy system with video game feel and hopes Ember needs less prep? There are other VTT-only ttrpgs too, like Tales of Fablecraft and Burn Bryte, has anyone played those? #TTRPG
