When there is a tendency in nerd media to push every reference to a legacy character to some darker, more over the top place - it's actually quite neat to see a wholesome update - the Stoutarm family have learnt to throw their friends and livestock to give them momentum, without it being lethal.
Brion Stoutarm is my forever-favorite commander. I've had my Brion deck for 15+ years. I was super happy the ECL set team asked me to design a new member of the Stoutarm family. Bre is great in my Brion deck, but with her own buildaround power for any new fans. #wotcstaff

Gimme music suggestions for Bandcamp!
So far I have Hundreth (shoegaze) and Envoi (pop rock), as well as GERM by Kate Nash that I would ask everyone to listen to!

So, plans for the next year? In no particular order…
1) I’m still working on a Professor Oak run of PKMN Emerald.
2) Got my RQ and WtA games ongoing!
3) For CoC: Cathulhu, Regency Cthulhu, Horror on the Orient Express at the very least
4) Gloranthan Games 2026 (and maybe Chaosium Con?)

For the NBs following me, what even is “Object Gender”? Because that’s the best way I can explain how I feel being “it/its”. Agender is… somewhat similar but I wouldn’t say (or don’t currently think I would say) that I am *no* gender, just… again, for lack of a better word, “Object”.

Just started a new Six Ages 2 game, and I’m not sure if these are always available and I’m just clueless, or that my starting picks gave me them, but… Cheese Spirit! Woo!

sincerely, if you're in wargaming i strongly recommend getting very good at spotting which people play the black templars because of the "templars" part, there's a lot of fash hiding behind the fandom in some spaces
Far-right groups are co-opting the aesthetics of the Crusades for their own objectives, transforming an obsession with feudal justice into a campaign for a White Christian nation.
Why We Should All Be Worried About "Crusadercore"
This online trend equips young, White men with a historically bastardized visual lexicon — one that gives new credence and religious authority to far-right bigotry.

Second post regarding TTRPGs this year:
2025 marked my first forays into both the system of #RuneQuest and the world of #Glorantha!
I’ve fallen in love with the world and formed a cohesive team of three adventurers for my first campaign in Alda-Chur.

Third on the docket for my 2025 TTRPGs: World of Darkness!
I’ve run Werewolf the Apocalypse for many years, and am lucky enough to have a large and invested group. My campaign’s end is *just* on the cusp of the horizon at the moment, and that leads me to look into what comes next!

Gonna do a few posts recounting TTRPG things I did this year.
First and most notably, my CoC group completed Children of Fear in December.
It was their first CoC campaign ever, and it's been really rewarding seeing them grow as Investigators, both in- and out-of-character.

@pleasantkenobi.bsky.social Do you think that power creep will result in incomplete/underwhelming cycles?
I have a soft spot for the 'Thirst for' cycle, and hope to see others (for creatures, etc). However, they are almost outclassed by Stock Up, if not for the instant/sorcery distinction.
