Thinking about a Mission: Impossible #TTRPG, I wonder whether it should be a straight up adaptation, or a “X but with Y” thing like “M:I but in Fantasy Renaissance Venice”. One reason is that since some M:I tech (like masks) feels magic, why not actual magic?

There are only two meals: breakfast, and dessert.

TFW probably a good portion of the people laid-off by Epic today are looking at Video Game Worker Unions…

Sure enough, one of the drives in my NAS failed during the night. Luckily I live within two blocks of both Canada Computers and Memory Express so I grabbed two Ironwolf drives and one of them is currently used to rebuild the RAID array 🤞🏽

Me when it’s sunny, walking the dog: “Listen to that, the birds are singing! So beautiful! So relaxing!”

The birds, probably: “OMG LONG LEGS AND KILLER TEETH ARE HERE! RUN! HIDE!”

My face when my Pendragon (session zero) players tell me “These rules look very good! The RuneQuest rules from last year were shit, though! Why didn’t Chaosium use those rules for RuneQuest? What’s the story there?”

And in other eBay news, I may have gotten some old 1985 item at, like, a quarter of the usual “collector’s market” price. Not sure if the item isn’t quite what I thought, or if nobody was paying attention (it was a pretty short auction). We’ll see when it arrives!

I don’t get the practice of “sniping” items on eBay at the end of an auction? I just put my maximum bid from the start and don’t think about it anymore. If I wasn’t willing to pay more than that 2 weeks ago, I’m not gonna be either 2 minutes before the end.

When the good fluffy boy wants me to enter the Black Lodge…
