Pretty cool except for the part where I was really terrified and now my knees are all dizzy.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

This Reddit thread on representation in Horizon: Forbidden West is just lovely. (Major spoilers for both games, obviously.) [link]

I absolutely love the world-building in these games. All these aspects of the human condition that are acknowledged and shape the world around them organically.

Coding and Sleeping

Started listening to the Children of Earte podcast which is a live-play D&D campaign set in modern times. Never considering doing that with D&D, but it's very cool and creative.

This "Origin of the Beholder" video had me in tears from laughing. This guy has decent GM advice, but some of his skits are absolutely top notch. [link]

I'm kind of burned out on D&D and am working on putting together a 1930s Pulp-style game using the Savage Worlds system. (I looked at Pulp Cthulhu first, but decided I really don't like %-based systems. I also looked at Hollow Earth Expedition, which I really liked, but also seems to be out of print and it doesn't have Foundry VTT support that I can find.)

I haven't decided if I'm going serial or episodic with the story, yet, though the idea of "Break a supervillain out of Alcatraz" just popped in my head as an adventure idea and I'm going to have to find a way to incorporate it, now. (Even better if I can have the heroes put him away in the first place earlier in the campaign.)

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

you can use voice notes on Discord now and I want to use this for evil D&D
