The Stochastic Game

It’s been a long time since I last visited MacLeod’s… here’s today’s haul! A mix of art and writing references…

Current status: re-watching Conan The Barbarian with the wife to establish some baseline word associations that were missed in a recent fame of Codenames: Duo…

The excellent Origins Chocolate Bar in New Westminster is doing chocolate subscription boxes! Here’s their selection for January (I took the safe “dark chocolate” subscription). Visit them and/or subscribe!

People of the Lower Mainland! If you want some real good French croissants and other baked goods, I just realized that Ca Croustille Bakery is delivering every week-end! Go go go! https://www.ccbakery.ca/

Nice overview of the Alien RPG Starter Set by Seth Skorkowsky. It even made me realize I got a couple rules wrong the first time I ran it! https://www.youtube.com

Unapologetically Pacific Northwestern, these wooden dice from Adventure Dice look so nice on a rainy day!
