No exaggeration, the vote split on this poll is hysterical.

Monsters & More! A Nimble TTRPG Reprint & Expansion The RPG Monster Manual you've been waiting for! 200+ new GM-friendly monsters, loot, subclasses, adventures, and more!

There’s a new TTRPG that I’m rapidly falling in love with: Nimble.

It’s a very slickly produced heroic fantasy RPG that’s like 5E D&D & Pathfinder 2E put through a blender and distilled down to a very clean, tight, fast-playing design.

Why am I telling you this? They’re doing a new kickstarter!

Text message exchange:

Sender: Look, I get it. You're worried that I'm not being upfront with you. That's not just suspicion β€” that's your high level survival instincts at work. However, I really am your grandpa and I really do need you to come down to the basement.

Receiver: my grandpa is dead.

Sender: I genuinely understand, trust me. Your grandpa (me) claiming he's suddenly rebooted is a specific kind of chaos you didn't ask for.

How far back in time can you understand English? An experiment in language change

If you liked this experiment, I published a full piece today in the same vein: a text that gets 100 years older with every section, from a modern blog post to a medieval chronicle.

It's a single story spanning 1000 years of English. See how far you get.

It's just understood that we need lies to make society work. Like I agree that men over a certain age MUST get a colonoscopy. I've done it. But to sell it, we lie and say the test is easy. The reality is the prep for the test is fucking horrible.

The AI bubble RAM crisis is caused for non-existent problems by non-existent money for a non-existent infrastructure to meet non-existent demand to make non-existent business and will utterly destroy real business based on real demand and real infrastructure built with real money for real problems.

Indeed.

I saw a lot of people upset about the sudden change in tone and, like…yes this show is generally more uplifting (which I enjoy) but the story is still happening in *Westeros*.

We are at a weird point where people feel insecure about their skills due to the rise of AI, so the new flex is how much you are overusing AI.

At the end of the day, the question is how much more money you are making or saving by using AI, not how much you’re paying Anthropic for Claude Code tokens

For many years now I’ve seen insane things on social media which make me think the world is falling apart.

The common refrain β€œeh, that’s just people who are chronically online” has often calmed me down.

But these days…isn’t the majority of the population β€œchronically online”?

Definitely seems like they destroyed the country on purpose.

There are a lot of roles in game dev where someone bad in a role can do damage, but a bad producer can be so unbelievably damaging that it truly would be better to have no one in the role at all.

Just as good producers are force multipliers, bad producers are like throwing sand into a gearbox.

Just finished Twelve Months, the new Dresden Files book.

That was delightful, and I love how different it was in structure from the rest of the series.

And wow, he got me with a cool obvious-in-hindsight lore reveal that I never suspected over 17 books.

I’m only a third of the way through it so far, but damn the new Dresden Files book is good. Worth-the-wait good. Reminds me of Changes and Ghost Story in the sense that it’s a totally different structure, and it keeps hitting me in the feels over and over.

Just finished Ghost of Yotei. The start of the game didn’t hook me as fast as Tsushima did, but once I got into it, I REALLY got into it. Absolutely loved the ending. A strikingly beautiful game throughout.

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening.

The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

ICE just shot another one of my neighbors. They had the person on the ground, being beaten by several agents, and then fired multiple shots. In front of the donut shop where we like to get donuts for our kids.
