I go to an American Indian health care clinic for my PCP, and of all the colonial ironies, the two doctors there are Doctor French and Doctor English

We need more sites like Rascal in the TTRPG space. They truly make amazing stuff! If you have a buck or more to throw their way, really consider doing so!
It's been such a privilege to write for Rascal, to write for you, and it would be really nice if I could do it next year as well. If you can sign up, please do. I would do so much better, the work world be so much better, if the site wasn't precious.
Stay tuned! @coffeeallnight.itch.io and I are going to be launching some collabs on each others games! Things are about to get weird in the best possible way😊😱
After playtesting and iterating for 2 years, The Decay has gotten to the point where it is comfortable and effortless to run, and intuitive on the player side as well. I can't wait to share this with all of you. Follow on KS to join in. #ttrpg #horror www.kickstarter.com/projects/cof...
I also want to give a shout out for Puppet Run, a weird horror game using the Otherkind Dice engine. Written by @carlosmakesgames.bsky.social also launching in October. Carlos and I are going to be collaborating on each other's games. www.kickstarter.com/projects/car...
Coming soon: Puppet Run
A tabletop role-playing game of puppets, horror, and identity based based on Meguey and Vincent Bakers' Otherkind Dice system.

Be on the lookout for this one!
Truly so excited for this collab with @falconwizard.bsky.social 🎉 We’re putting together an awesome workshop series for a small group of folx to explore the many facets of facilitating roleplaying games. More details coming soon! Sign-up here to be the first to know: tinyurl.com/MoreThanMech...
Having a deeply tia coded interaction at the Filipino food truck last day of #GenCon Me visibly disappointed that they only had lumpia and pancit left (which I love, I just wanted other stuff too) Woman behind the counter: “Why didn’t you come earlier? Ah, too busy playing games”
Achievement unlocked…someone asked if they could do fan art for #PuppetRun at #GenCon!
Hey…I’m thinking of starting a web series about movies as #TTRPGs ! What movies map really well onto specific adventure formats? Here’s what I have so far The Warriors : Point Crawl or FITD Cube: Dungeon Crawl The Empty Man: Delta Green Investigation Midsommar: CoC Investigation
A little envious of all you at Gen Con this weekend. I won't be there but I have it on good authority that Bump in the Dark is on offer as part of Games on Demand and with Tabletop Gaymers!
I have always said that if you didn’t know what was going on when we were playing second or third addition, it would sound like a group of people doing their taxes out loud
With all these rules-light games, I feel one of the big boons of playing TOW is that young people get the classic tabletop experience of, essentially, attending to law school
Check out @brightbard.bsky.social x @moreblueberries.bsky.social x @goosepoopgames.com, all at booth 449 for some awesome TTRPGs, including ENnies nominees/winners that are great for kids!
PWU panel had a lot of really great insights and was happy to be on it! Next up is Games on Demand! Come play PuppetRun from 6-10 tonight!
If anyone is looking for recommendations for non-steak, non-reservation style food spots in Indy for #GenCon - I live here, and this is my list. It's not super long, but The Garage has like 15 restaurants in it, so there's plenty to check out 🙂 docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

My oldest has gotten into Barbie and I’m so sad to report that nobody has started 3D printing Barbie Mech Suits
My completely unfounded #TTRPG conspiracy theory is that digital dice rollers skew high so players want to use them
Hey #GenCon! Let me know if you’re running some cool games, especially Saturday evening! Here’s my schedule. Say hi or come through and have some fun playing a game about horror puppets and identity where every role affects the fiction!
