The Stochastic Game

Ramblings of General Geekery

The Northman is another beautiful Robert Eggers movie, with Alexander Skarsgard’s beautiful body covered in beautiful blood for half of the runtime. What else to ask for? Well, there’s also a great depiction of the Viking world, which makes the movie feel more fleshed out than Eggers’ previous two rather contained stories.


Last Friday we were down one player so we did a Call of Cthulhu one-shot… but we removed the Pushed Rolls and Luck rules. It went pretty well and it played much faster! #TTRPG


I recently finished all four seasons of Atlanta. What a strange, funny, insightful, and original series. The first season starts as somewhat standard short-form drama, but it becomes increasingly quirky and surreal, with many episodes you absolutely won’t see coming. Loved it.


Last Night in Soho (2021) is a mystery/thriller/horror movie that sadly disappoints on all three levels. But it’s still an Edgar Wright movie so it’s very entertaining, the direction and editing are amazing, and the soundtrack is top-notch! Bonus point for Diana Rigg’s final performance.


Well here is the result of the Fraisier experiment. Not awesome but decent for a first try.
