You think cooler scientologists shorten thetans to "theets"? All just blasting theets on weekends with the brahs?

I have been waiting for this for forever (not the old nGage game, a Palladium crowdfund that we can take bets on how it inevitably collapses)!

We should still get to publish that Duckman RPG though. That's a nostalgic mid-90s IP, totally different.

I've only just started reading the playtest materials for it and I am unreasonably pumped, I've been hurting for some good cyberpunk and I'm a little picky about the more famous options in the space for it.

Remember how much we enjoyed Spectaculars? Well the author is kickstarting a cyberpunk thing so you know we're on board, and honestly you should be too.

You do not, in fact, have to help the racist pay his old-ass debts. You aren't paying people, you're paying a racist, Goodman.

I gotta say suddenly adopting the stance that they desperately need to make things right for people who backed a failed Kickstarter (which they didn't own or run) ten years ago might be the most pathetic smokescreen to put in front of "we are still working with a proud racist" I've seen in a while.

Goodman Games is so disgusted about revelations that they were working with a full-throated bigot that they have no choice but to keep working with him and say "Our children were hurt by this" about it. Gotta republish some old-ass book no one cares about though! Vital apparently!

Hi I'm really sorry our current episode sounds like crap, the raw file somehow saved at a pathetic 8k bitrate, which I set higher than that a long time ago so I'd never have to think about it, so I have no idea why it was briefly set to some Tiger Electronics 1993-ass sludge mix.

Not to get political since it's not our wheelhouse but if people wanted us to actually make the games we make up we'd need to be able to print them somewhere, on something, and pay a fair price to presumably other nations in order to do so. So when commerce is no longer a silly thing to suggest.

Haha when we started System Mastery we were all "We'll be perfect for this, we know every weird old game, like Rifts and Marvel Superheroes Roleplaying! Real forgotten crazy ones! Surely there is a bottom to this barrel!"

Saw Reel Big Phish last night. They said "pick it up pick it up" for eight straight minutes. One of the trumpet players asphyxiated and died and they just sent in another one.

Is there any machine at the gym more camped by social scrollers than the pectoral fly? I have yet to encounter one and I'm not sure why. Maybe the bench is super comfy?

Ever wonder what's in those adult RPGs for couples that advertise rather heavily on Facebook? Wonder no more my friends!

Wait so you were only willing to actually say the name of one (1) indy game that's doing fine, while actually spending the bulk of the article lamenting that we're not getting ENOUGH WOTC slop this year?
