Ramblings of General Geekery

Double Kickstarter arrival! The kingdoms of Rethem and Orbaal for Harn… as always with great art, maps, and lore.


People don’t know how to use umbrellas in public. You’d think Vancouverites would have had some practice but apparently no


No detailed “games played” retrospective from me (number-chasing is already too prevalent on social media, thank you), but I’ll say that I’m happy I finally got to start playing Traveller! Plus continuing WFRP and RuneQuest. I’m catching up with all the old stuff! #ttrpg


My kid, after having watched half a James Bond movie: “he seems to be sleeping with a lot of women, but I’m willing to bet he marries exactly zero”. Pretty close, kid…


The most amazing thing with this version of AKIRA isn’t just that they kept the original right-to-left reading and Japanese sound effects… it’s that they included a translation index of those sound effects!


Merry Christmas and happy whatever-you-celebrate, everyone! This year I gave myself a way way way overdue gift: the complete AKIRA series!


Before itch.io and PbtA and OSR, GURPS was one place to find weirdly specific, one-off games and settings!


Piranha Sharks was… something. WTF/minute ratio was high, production values low, just enough budget to seemingly get Kevin Sorbo for one day of shooting, and absolutely ridiculous premise! Still, it’s 31st on Kevin Kulp’s list of 130+ shark movies!


I find it hilarious that long-term Apple Store apologists like Gruber are upset about Twitter banning links to other social media sites.
