Yeah. I had been wondering if they’d try another dance routine this season. This one was epic, and they really upped the ante by making it a duet. I wonder if it will go viral on TikTok like Wednesday’s season 1 dance did. I guess in season 3 they’ll need to do a three-person dance routine. 😅

Again, from ChatGPT: If the theme is Bhaalist (murder, poison, assassins) rather than a “holy anti-vampire relic,” then the flavor should swing from radiant/sunlight → poison/death motif. We can reskin and rebalance it without losing the intelligent-item feel. Here’s a revised version: The...

I popped this into ChatGPT. Here's what it suggested: The Hollow Blade Weapon (shortsword), very rare (requires attunement by a non-undead creature) Intelligence. The Hollow Blade is a sentient neutral short sword with Int 14, Wis 14, Cha 14. It has hearing and normal vision out to 60 feet. It...

Yay! The power’s back on! Only took 6 hours to fix.

I really liked Discovery. I think it did a good job capturing the optimism of Star Trek. Quibble all you want about the implausibility of a mycellium network spore drive and all that. It still FELT like Star Trek to me. Voyager, on the other hand, FELT like a soap opera in space, and I bounced...

I got woken up by a bang from somewhere in the neighborhood early this morning. Then I noticed that the power was out. Won't be back on until early this afternoon. Apparently an "animal/bird" damaged the power lines nearby. So now I'm hotspotting off my work phone and hoping that my phone and...

@mearls has a cool-looking streamlined 5e game called Odyssey in the works. I’m more excited about that than I am any official WotC stuff.

Well, that was fun! I knew zombie boy was going to be a major part of the story, but I didn't predict exactly how. I knew Dort and Capri were both up to something! I think episode 6 was my favorite of the season. I didn't expect Gwendoline Christie's Principal Weems to return. I liked...

I acknowledge and apologize for my own axe-grinding. I'm not even sure why I've got axes to grind. Maybe it's because I'm so close to falling off the D&D bandwagon that I'm using the axes to hold on for dear life?

I used to have one but when it broke, I couldn’t find anyone to repair it. 😭

Is that a play on Between Two Ferns?

Ugh. I was hoping she’d stay gone forever.

Part Two is out now! Watching … EDIT: Ha! I knew that was going to be Tyler’s mom. I wasn’t expecting Morticia and Gomez to know zombie boy, though. I thought he was much older than that. EDIT 2: OK I loved episode 6. Emma and Jenna are such good friends that they do such a fantastic job...

Puts me in mind of this:

OK. I've heard of that one but have never played it, so I'll have to take your word for it. I suppose another option is Westworld's future, where people's lives are predetermined by an AI that also actively prevents them from deviating from that path ~ and when that AI is overthrown, the ensuing...

I mean, yeah, I get that. It was just some of the details in the movie that threw me, but overall ... yeah, totally.

I'm not worried about living in a simulation. I am, however, worried that the future we seem to be heading toward isn't one I want to live in. If we're lucky, we'll get a WALL-E style future, where we've trashed our planet but those of us who've survived don't need to work because we've got...

Agreed. While a lot of people point to Tasha's as the start of the power creep, I maintain it is a more coherent "everything" book than Xanathar's was.
