Ramblings of General Geekery

It’s funny to watch people be mad at South Park: conservatives who wrongly thought it was “on their side”, and liberals who take it too personally. I’m a big-ass socialist/green and I find the show hilarious. Parker & Stone are just assholes who will be mean to anybody, and that’s why I like it.


It’s decided, this year for my Christmas/birthday gift to myself, I’m getting custom frames to put all my Ultima cloth maps on a wall! For now it will include Ultima III through IX, plus Shroud of the Avatar. I’m hoping to eventually also get Ultima Online’s map.

The Ultima VI cloth map, and the boxes of the "middle" trilogy that cemented the video games series spot as an absolute classic of the CRPG genre

In yesterday’s RuneQuest game, the Yelmalion PC marched with a warband to meet Harvar Ironfist in a heroquest. An identification contest was issued and with cunning nerdy bullshit the players tore down Harvar’s god-forming. The PC is now Yelmalio, Harvar is the False Sun, and killing is starting!


Reprints of some old-school Fighting Fantasy books have showed up on my doorstep! Rejoice! And don’t forget to keep your finger at the previous chapter!

The first five Fighting Fantasy books

As someone working on the #UE5 Sequencer and other cinematics tech, I am APPALLED by seeing my kid always skip through cut scenes in his new Pokémon game. Have respect for the craft, man!


I am very sad to report that I don’t like Alien: Earth 😞 I guess I’ll go back to my binge watch of Xena Warrior Princess (almost done!)


That awkward moment when your dog disappears in the bushes, you call him, and he comes back with a brown tongue and an absolutely horrible breath… 😬
