    Having an incredibly rare Day To Myself. Landed in Galway city 2 hours ago, pucked up some things to help run D&amp;amp;D for kids in my local library this weekend, got some coffee in that small Italian place I love, and just polished off a gigantic burrito with slow cooked beef and damn near everything on top. God I miss having Mexican food withing 10 minutes of my house. The game store should be open by now, time to head over and pick up a set of dice for each kid that signed up because appar...

    If you listen to Juiced Up from the Cyberpunk 2077 soundtrack, you&amp;#39;ll realise it ticks every single box on the Strongbad email about techno except there&amp;#39;s nobody saying &amp;quot;The system. Is down.&amp;quot;

    RIP John Blanche. Hell of an artist. Understood exactly what Warhammer Fantasy and 40k were, even when GW didn&amp;#39;t. Here&amp;#39;s one of his dioramas from Warhammer World, made the year I was born.

    Probably the main thing I&amp;#39;ll be doing at this 6 week &amp;quot;teach dungeons &amp;amp; dragons to kids&amp;quot; thing is teaching them about all the great ttrpgs that have nothing to do with fucking WotC because *jesus christ have you SEEN the shit they&amp;#39;ve been up to*

    Some news you hear makes you go &amp;quot;omg what a shock, I never thought that person could or would ever do that!&amp;quot; But then you hear &amp;quot;Richard Dawkins is getting AI psychosis from a model he trained on his own books and is already flirting with it&amp;quot; and you just go &amp;quot;yeah that fuckin tracks completely&amp;quot;

    Of all the time I spend thinking about the *incredible* writing in Disco Elysium, this one response takes up at least 90% of it. I think we should all employ it more often tbh

    One for #mastodaoine D&amp;#39;Ting I had to make it as quickly as possible because if I had spent time making it look better everyone would hate me.

    Me normally: I refuse to get on the hype train. It is so cynical and undignified. I am better than this. You should ALL be better than this!

    Statting up an Exalted character for the first time in years tonight. Using the Essence rules might make this a little easier. All the same, I missed it; There&amp;#39;s a flavour to Exalted that no other ttrpg quite matches. Anyway, time to create &amp;quot;Morticia Addams wields unspeakable necromantic power whilst accompanied by her devoted ghost wife-guy husband&amp;quot;

    Not a fan of my last day before leaving consisting of getting out of bed extra early and leaving the house with a pram so I can sit in a cafe waiting while the house is cleaned, prospective buyers come to look at it, while my hosts go looking at houses in turn, and *eventually* meet me later after they pick up their kid from daycare, and then *maybe* around 3pm I can actually go back and have a fucking shower. Just in time for them to host a party for half a dozen toddlers and their parents....

    oh hell yeah, just secured a spot in an Exalted online campaign. I haven&amp;#39;t played Exalted in SO LONG and I&amp;#39;m excited to basically stat up Gomez Addams with terrifying Necromantic powers
