Do you know if there are plans to publish a translation?
Did you miss the chance to play Finland's biggest larp, the scifi blockbuster Odysseus? Did you play it and want to do it again?

A well-worn copy of the Pathfinder 1st Edition core rulebook.

Pathfinder, 1st Edition
The game I've most likely run the most, thanks to Pathfinder Society. Note the well-loved condition of the rulebook - and this is the second one I bought, after I retired my first printing copy when I got it signed.

ALIEN Roleplaying Game, 1st Edition
The game elegantly facilitates running games like the survival horror of Alien, or like the sci-fi action of Aliens. I've run this at conventions and as a short campaign, and it was great fun. Second edition recently out, haven't studied it yet.
The game Zombie Cinema in Finnish, displaying the VHS case, the game board, dice, meeples, and ice cream sticks with character prompts.

Zombeja! Ovella!
Or "Zombies! At the Door!", from Arkenstone Publishing. A game packaged in a VHS case with ice cream sticks for character prompts. Released in English as Zombie Cinema. A rare TRPG that has a clear winner. Great party game.

If I Ran the Con
It's maybe not a RPG, but I think it's also not not an RPG, if you get me. You play convention organizers trying to organize a big sci-fi convention, and go through the con prep and finally to runtime, trying not to run out of money, piss off the fans, or burn everyone out.
Well, this one didn't go as planned. We found the combat system overcomplicated and the group voted to yeet it after one session. Also I think we're all just a bit too old to have actually watched Avatar as kids.
No. I'm a fan. I've got the DVDs and the RPGs and I probably drop way too many references to the show in my normal speech. But it is over, and it was a long time ago, and we have already let go. I don't want to see the 2020s version of Firefly. I want to see new things.
In late 19th Century, during a series of archaeological excavations in La Madeleine, a cave located in southwestern France, researchers unearthed the carving. The discovery of this tiny yet intricately carved bison stunned archaeologists. Measuring only a few inches in length, the carving is a testament to the skill and craftsmanship of our Ice Age ancestors. Despite its small size, the level of detail and realism captured in the carving is extraordinary. This piece of artwork is distinguished by its remarkable realism and attention to detail. The steppe bison's muscular form, the folds in its skin, and its posture, which suggests it is engaging in a natural behavior, all serve to bring the animal to life. Just as the bison does in the photo below.
This small but vivid sculpture depicts a steppe bison (Bison priscus), an extinct species that roamed the European tundra during the Upper Paleolithic era, (circa 17,000–12,000 years ago).
It's not just that I resent having to turn your AI agent off every three days because you refuse to respect my settings: I also want its ugly-ass annoying logo and constant reminder of its existence to vanish from my UI. I don't want it, I don't want to look at it, I don't want to think about it.
I have decided that I can hold off on this for another ten, fifteen years, because that's probably when Pokémon's 30th anniversary is gonna be.
Buy a book or three. You’ve earned it.
Margaret Thatcher?

Out of curiosity, I tried to create a more complete list and came up with 65 names, while excluding anthologies, comics, and graphic novels. And plays, but that only takes out William Shakespeare and Margaret Cavendish.

A grim fact about the Olympics I just learned: The corpses of the contestants who die during the skiing events are left on the slopes as it is too dangerous to collect them for proper burial
Inspector Gereon Rath (Volker Bruch) and Charlotte "Lotte" Ritter (Liv Lisa Fries) in Babylon Berlin
When people question your book hoarding
This is a very specific comment but:
GOODBYE CON CRUD
2nd edition crowdfunding for the ever-original The Old The Cold The Bold by Whitney Delaglio, who authored the mermaid romance TTRPG -- PRISM.
Pulling off heists against the deserving ultra-rich has never been this fun!
The key lesson here is that you do not shit on your own product.
The other one is that you don't shill for genAI, but that'll be less relevant once the bubble bursts.
Great to see that Ryan Dancey's embrace of plagiarizing AI and his denigration of the games created for his company was a step too far for AEG.
Now we can happily buy games like the "Let's Go to Japan" sequel without having to worry about them being AI slop.
And age-restricted because of non-alcoholic beer!
Splendid video, though. I've felt a certain suspicion towards Carved from Brindlewood, but I think that the mechanic would work for me better in creepypasta horror rather than a straight-up murder mystery.
I mean, have you tasted Becks Blue?
and now for your moment of chonky floating zen
an alien looking orange kitten with a googly eye placed in between his eyes on his forehead
he sees all
I don't know who keeps doing this but you have to stop I'm begging you
tbh I think one of the reasons I just can’t forgive AI use is my first political “thing” was when I was 12 and heard a power plant was going to be built near my school that was big enough to fuck with the weather and everyone thought it was so cute when I went to a town hall to ask them not to do it
YouTube has just informed me that they’ve reviewed this video and deemed it “not suitable for all advertisers.”
Utterly devastating as someone who directly earns 0% on every video she posts. Without that 0%, I may be forced to cook and eat the family dog to survive. Whose family, I don’t yet know.
