In spite of everything 2025 was a pretty fulfilling year for me, games wise. I wrote a lot of BREAK!! stuff (Please check out the blog/START coming soon) and got to connect with other creators as well as members of our community. I'm really looking forward to building off these foundations in 2026.

It's only “DEI” if it comes from liberal coastal cities. Otherwise it's just sparkling white supremacy.

Had to have this talk with someone who honestly meant well so just a gentle reminder. Even if it's free it still supports the TERF queen. It still keeps the franchise relevant when we need to let it die to stop her from harming people.

Do Not Download/Use/Read/Steal/Play Any HP media. Let it die.

Per Craig Ferguson: When you're about to say something, ask yourself

1. Does this need to be said

2. Does this need to be said by me

3. Does this need to be said by me right now

It's amazing how asking these will get keep you out of trouble (that is, if you actually have sense to begin with)
I’ve been trying very hard to not be an asshole as I get older. Often, that just means keeping my mouth shut and nodding along.

@corybooker.com has the 60-minute CECOT segment available on his channel. Watch it while you can. In other places, Paramount has taken the video down - "copyright," don't you know. Share. The more who witness, the better.

re-reading the Locked Tomb books as one sometimes must and man: John's narration in Nona the Ninth really is the best villain monologue ever written. by the end you understand why they exist as a trope in the first place! because only a villain has the ego required to monologue!

Forged in the Dark innovators thread! Who's doing cool new stuff with the FitD model? (promote your own or someone else's).

I'll start: Slugblaster, by @wilkiescandylab.com is a smart hack of the core systems, tweaked in just the right way to fit the more light-hearted adventure style of the game.
