Israel is bombarding, literally bombarding, two Middle East capitals, Beirut and Tehran, killing 100s of civilians, and yet the US and UK media continue to portray Iran as the threat to the region.
Israel has nukes, but Iran is the nuclear threat.
We live in Orwellian times.
We have all sorts of #ttrpg radness on sale over on @drivethrurpg.com right now, folks!
i guess this is the new talking point given that House GOP saying it too, which is silly because it's so easy to turn it around and go "why is the anti-mask party who spent years telling everyone this was bad for society suddenly pro-mask"
I think they might have better luck spending two thousand dollars holding a press conference where they detail who made the key decisions to collaborate with the Trump administration, how and when they were fired, and explaining what would stop that from happening again.

TTRPG SAFETY ANNOUNCEMENT:
CW: CSA materials
I've just heard from a trusted source (with evidence linked below)
that @ colbosch. bsky. social was arrested in June last year for possession of CSAM.
Sharing this info so that others can look into it for themselves and keep themselves safe.
I don't know this guy, but many of you do. I did the research - he's facing 15 years for CSAM, some of the victims in the abuse materials were ID'd by NCMEC.
I'm willing to forgive an awful lot, but never child abuse or pedophilia.
We've unlocked all our goals for our Trophy TTRPG anthology of one shots! Look forward to incursions written by @lackingceremony.bsky.social, @thebadspot.bsky.social, @lincodega.com, @kierongillen.bsky.social, @quinnblackwell.bsky.social & @premeemohamed.com :D www.kickstarter.com/projects/fir...
Excited as hell to get to dip my toes back into the world of Trophy
Also, to be a stretch goal next to so many heavy hitters has me so pumped!
Bernie Sanders’ billionaire tax would soak about 900 people to fund $3,000 checks for the middle class
Sounds fucking, great. Oh, you think it’s a bad thing… Fortune magazine.
RT if $3000 would literally change your life
I'm unsure how people really think people were downplaying a virus that can kill you, make you go blind, wipe out your immune system for years, and oh yeah come back and kill you a decade after you thought you'd shaken it.
Hard Wired Island: Second Gig is now on Kickstarter! This is a full expansion for the retrofuture cyberpunk TTRPG, with all kinds of tasty new content. Check it out:
A lot of games! I put all my games here but the other 1433 are better. Also: fuck ICE.
That’s a lot of games for ten bucks toward a good cause.
Here is my secret hidden wisdom. If you like drawing, and you like porn, try drawing your own porn. It's A) fun as fuck, and B) it will legit make you better at art. Sounds obvious but it took me years and years to try it.

The deleted comment was saying that they wouldn’t back board games if they didn’t have at least a tts version to play prior to backing.

TTRPG folks:
— How often do you play (any) TTRPGs?
— How often do you read/learn a new (to you) TTRPG?
— How often do you play a new (to you) TTRPG?
1) It’s looking like 3 times a week, which is awesome
2) At least 1 or 2 a week
3) rarely: maybe once every 2-3 months
Chinese actress Chen Lijun as the archer Ayuya, one of the main characters of Yuen Woo-Ping's 2026 film, Blades of the Guardians. In white clothes and an arm brace, she is reaching back to pluck an arrow from her quiver.
Film fans rejoice! Yuen Woo-Ping has brought wuxia back to glory in the cinema with Blades of the Guardians: Wind Rises in the Desert (2026)! It's still early in the year, but I already predict that this is going to be among the funnest films of 2026. letterboxd.com/bisexualkaij...
An intricate octopus cut from a single piece of paper
Japanese artist Masayo Fukuda hand-cut this life-sized octopus from one sheet of paper. Known as Kirie in Japanese (translated as “cut picture”), the art form involves cutting intricate forms from a single sheet of white paper and then contrasting it against a black background to reveal the design.
A man asked me last night what publishing needs to do for literary fiction to begin appealing to men again. I said, as nicely as I could, that, with over 2,000 books published every Tuesday, of which many would appeal to men, it’s not a publishing problem, it’s a men problem.
Behold, data nerds, I have tabulated Evil Hat's crowdfunding data (launch date, total funding, backer counts, some adjustment for inflation, etc) from 2012 through to a couple hours ago. Check the tabs along the bottom* to get at some graphs/pivot tables. docs.google.com/spreadsheets...
A white cartoon cat sits smiling next to the Toe Beans logo and a CLOSED cafe sign. The text reads: late pledges available until 18th March!
Toe Beans has officially closed! Thank you so much to everyone who backed and shared the project.
If you missed the campaign, late pledges are now open for the digital and physical book tiers for a short time.
The café doors are still open… just quietly. 🐾

A pulp-style book cover shows an illustration of a man with his back to the viewer. He's in a library holding a large book. He's looking up to a pair of figures in the background; a man has his arm around the next of a woman, with a knife raided above her. A yellow title reads "In The Library With The Wrench". A subtitle at the top of the page reads "A GM-less game of murder and intrigue".
Here's the cover.
If you want something more current, Tales of Arise is pretty great, and the Xenoblade Chronicles series is also one to check out. That's a brief list, anyway :)
JRPGs have a lot of disparate games, so some people would put something like Persona 5 Royal in the category. I would, and it is great. But if you want something more classic, if you don't mind the pixel style, Final Fantasy 4 and 6 are both great, and a lot of people really love 9.
It's really hard to explain this to anyone who didn't grow up in the evangelistic Christian cult that is mainstream American religion, but when I tell you these people won't listen to logic & don't care about saving lives, in part because they want World war 3, I mean that quite literally.
