So there's a 6th edition of Vampire the Masquerade in the works. My only suggestion is it comes with an album titled Session Zero that includes 'Black No.1' by Type O Negative, 'Nemesis' by Shriekback, 'Bela Lugosi's Dead' by Bauhaus, & 'Cry Little Sister' from The Lost Boys.

I've waited decades to see Molly Millions outside of my imagination. She does not disappoint. Dina Meyer stole my heart when they changed Molly to Jane for Johnny Mnemonic, but Molly is the OG razorgirl.

Hive Mind! I am looking for a Deaf or Partially Deaf artist/graphic designer who signs (I'm not overly bothered whether that's BSL, ASL, or what) who might *potentially* be interested in doing some SFF book covers for pay. These are fact-finding enquiries for me at present, not immediate contract.

Fundamentally disagrees that games should be played to know how they run. This is is the same type of dipshittery as saying, "Playtesting is unnecessary, as my designs are always perfect". Dude thinks he's more capable than then entire RPG industry because they play it to see how it runs.

Comment from Reddit from someone who posted a RPG review about a game they didn't play.

Text Reads: "I know Seth Skorkowsky and some other reviewers believe things should be played before they’re reviewed to see how they run at the table, but I fundamentally disagree with that. I know for a fact that I can make anything a blast to play at my table for my players. The question is how much effort will it take to make it a blast for them, and to RUN at the table, and that is very easy to know by reading it.

If that doesn’t ring true to your experience then just treat it as any other book review since it is at base a book I have read"

I went to a friend's house yesterday & they were watching Ewoks: Battle for Endor (1985). While being critical of any Star Wars stuff released in the last 12+ years is perfectly fine, anyone claiming how the new stuff, "ruined their childhood" is saying they loved this and deserves ridicule

Many editors & readers hate book prologues. Mostly do to years of authors using them as info-dumps. I feel a perfect prologue would be like Blade's. A short pre-title scene without context, & then opening credits. So Prologue, Title Page, Ch1. The story explains the prologue. Not the other way.

Still from Blade (1998) as Blade's mother, dying of a wound in her neck, reaches out to her newborn son.
