    Tolkien’s Writing Desk on Auction at Christie's

    I think 50-80k pounds might be wildly undervaluing what that desk might pull in. There are some extremely rich (and extremely evil...) Tolkien fans out there.

    Ken Burns' The American Revolution

    One interesting thing is that at the time of the American Revolution the party enjoying a long period of dominance in British politics was in fact the party that was more sympathetic to the Americans. The focus on the King is also a bit odd to me considering this was quite a while after the idea...

    TSR On the Relative Merits of the TSR Editions

    I got my D&D books at a garage sale and they were AD&D 1e. So that is my TSR edition.

    Do you observe Thanksgiving?

    Thanks to this important clarification I voted that I observed Thanksgiving as a non-American. But obviously as a Canadian it was our October Thanksgiving that I observe. I feel like from the current tally most of my fellow Canadians must have just voted no though.

    Are You A GM?

    I actually just finished my first proper stint as a GM a few weeks ago. There was good and bad aspects to it. We are basically a rollplaying group doing Pathfinder 2e, and hopefully some Starfinder 2e in the future. Honestly I did not love GM prep in Foundry. I think if I were going to do it...

    Killing Eve

    So maybe I lucked out by never making it around to watching Season 3? I meant to for years. When I first tried Killing Eve I watched all of Season 1 in a day. And then I watched all of Season 2 the next day!

    General video game discussion

    I am actually still waiting to get Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom for Switch. My Sister lent me hers indefinitely and I have not been playing because Warhammer and the lack of games she has for it. But I wanted to get them from EB Games and the EB Games here at least still has the...

    General video game discussion

    I am finally going to put down Warhammer III for a bit, like, a couple of weeks or so. I did pretty much everything I wanted to for the time being in the Souls camapign and after over 500 hours I think it is finally time to turn to Immortal Empires. I took a small peek at it and I will say I...

    Who Should Gal Gadot Play In The New DCU?

    Rather than a flashback if they ever had a flashforward where they needed an adult Raven I was thinking that she might do well with that role. Raven is a very subdued character (most of the time) but also quite a bit of presence? Also not just a Wonder Woman adjacent character.

    Who Should Gal Gadot Play In The New DCU?

    I am sure you are all aware that there is a lot of negative talk around Gal Gadot for reasons that we do not need to nor are permitted to get into here. But yet another Facebook post about casting a new Wonder Woman for the New DCU had me realize I have yet to see a related question that could...

    Project Hail Mary | Official Trailer 2

    I predict Ryan Gosling will be nominated for an Academy Award again and lose and then he and Amy Adams will have a drink together and laugh about it. And then maybe they will make a movie together and both win, :D .

    New Star Trek Movie Coming From D&D Movie Creators

    If we can watch an animated SNW Lower Decks crossover and a live action Lower Decks SNW crossover... Speaking of which I was thinking last night that if prosthetics are a problem maybe we should just have an animated Andorian/Tellurite series? Whether you do that in the same or modified...

    Trailer Fallout Season Two New Official Trailer

    I do not think the Kings were all ghouls in the game, so some naughty word has perhaps happened since then. But it is nice to see the Silver Rush and Atomic Wrangler in there in addition to the New Vegas skyline! Also, it sounds like we might be meeting someone from Jacobstown.

    New Star Trek Movie Coming From D&D Movie Creators

    Maybe it is time for Tellarites and Andorians to get some love.

    New Star Trek Movie Coming From D&D Movie Creators

    I imagine this is pretty unlikely but I would actually like to see a movie that was something between First Contact and Arrival where this time we are the aliens. Or just anything really that explores something that should be blindingly obvious to an "outside observer" about how all this...
