When did themed pocket buckets become a thing? I feel like suddenly everyone cares, there’s a news story about the how to train your dragon popcorn bucket, has this aways been a thing? I’d basically never heard of it until the dune worm one

X-men 2 altered my Brian chemistry, there are better super powers but any time someone asks me what I’d choose, it’s giant angel wings

My partner bought 100 tiny plastic ducks off Amazon and they think it’s hilarious to hide them around the place in my things, they recently made a friend at my work who also started doing this, my life is just tiny ducks falling out of things.

Getting home from work crazy late, open uber eats, see a section called “Ramadan eats”

Oh what I can order dates at 3am or something?

Yeah, turns out I can.

Friend: what have you been doing?

Me: oh I spent the last 2 days building the perfect Rimworld mod list for a medieval fantasy game. Got stuff to make cool taverns and magic and fantasy beasts and stuff

Friend: oh cool, how is it?

Me: I dunno I haven’t played it yet…

Occasionally turning the laser pointer off and turning it on again behind my cat, is the closest I think I’ll ever get to being Bugs Bunny

Culture shock living in the south of England #37

They don’t have scrap metal guys driving around playing a little jingle

Had to leave some stuff outside work and said “might be worth covering it in case the rag n bone men come by”

And they reacted like I said “but what if the fairy’s take it?”

what are the steps you would only take if push came to shove?

and what constitutes a "shove"?

and how many shoves have you already gone through without noticing?

the final Alt-Right Playbook is now live.

it's called The South Bank of the Rubicon.

Is there anyone I can talk to about being fully committed to not buying the Jedi chopsticks and that I don’t want the company wasting any more money on sending me approximately 35 adverts a day for them?

The far-right tried to come to Brighton today, and, like they found out in the many cities they tried to hit today, there are many more of us than there are of them.

No home for fascism.

I’m an absolute nobody but I’m gonna go out on a limb and say you’re not getting many applicants for your Actual Play if you charge $10 a session to every participant

Even if you phrased it differently to say “I’m running paid games btw I’m gonna stream it” would probs make it sound more appealing

The thing about teching events is that sometimes your job feels like helping an elderly relative with their computer.

Hope you enjoyed the phone call where I repeatedly explained that you need to plug the hdmi cable in to put the game on the projector.

My invoice is in the post xo

Have you ever been DMing some ttrpg and the players go “wouldn’t it be wild if the twist was…” and you’re like holy fuck it would and immediately changed your notes?

I wonder if I could get work on fiver as “your stressed producer” for unmotivated creatives, where I’ll help you outline your project with a realistically schedule, but then for an ongoing fee I send you stressed emails like “hey buddy, still haven’t got those pages from you…”

Also my pfp is Pinky

Do any other ttrpg - ers have the Dungeon Master’s curse?
I kill players by accident all the time, roll crits like it’s nothing, but I don’t remember the last time I rolled higher than a 10 as a player at this point…

I’m currently writing a TTRPG play-test document which I’ll talk about soon but just wanted to share some editors notes I’ve been chuckling to myself about #ttrpg

Does anyone remember when movies were advertised as “no don’t worry about the plot the point is Jet Li and Bruce Lee are gonna finally fight in this movie!” or am I just old?
