For the new year I'd like to play an RPG. (The V5 game I mentioned at the start of the academic year got too many new players and it seems none of them have flaked. Damn them - I mean good for the hobby!)

Christmas!

Presents were opened, food was eaten, TV was watched, family was video called, first DVD is about to be checked to see if it plays (i.e. watched) so today was quite nice.

The Cure, Merry Christmas Everybody

Witch of the Vale

Witch of the Vale

Support for Fields of the Nephilim this week.

A gift for you all, and a week early!

Happy Hanukah to all who celebrate

Snow!

Snow! Which would have been even more scenic if I'd shopped on Friday and hadn't had to go out in it.

Vaguely annoyed that there's now a Regency era book for Call Of Cthulhu but not for Vampire.

Happy St. Andrew's Day! Just to be different.

Thanksgiving

Me: Happy Thanksgiving!

Sandy: I don't know why I find it so amusing when a British type person wishes Americans a happy Thanksgiving. I suppose I put it on par with wishing us a happy Independence day.

Me: I would celebrate not being ruled by Westminster as well.

Sandy: (thumbs up)

Love Lies Bleeing

Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me might be the most obvious Vampire related song in Elton John's farewell tour, but an argument could be made for calling a chronicle Love Lies Bleeding.

Zola Jesus, Arkhon

And also Alive In Cappadocia.

Halloween

Happy Halloween!

Werewolf By Night

Werewolf By Night was so my kind of thing I'm gonna need T-shirts and stuff. Classic Universal monster rally style horror, funny and weird.

Month Of Darkness 2022 Huntober

1: I, Hunter

What would get me to go out hunting? I think I would have to be backed into a corner.

Month Of Darkness 2022 Vamptober

#Vamptober 2022

1: Me, my blood and I

Having been on a samey diet for a couple of weeks after getting a tooth out recently, I would definitely want to vary the hunt if I was stuck drinking blood for every meal.

October!

October!

October!

Paramore, This Is Why

If you have an opinion, maybe you should shove it

Events

Three of the five main channels showing the Queen's funeral, 4 showing a documentary about the Queen and 5 showing cartoons to keep kids quiet. Paddington 2 on BBC One in the evening. The minor ITV channels showing the same as ITV. Other commercial channels running the usual, but with silence instead of ads in the ad breaks. It's all a bit much.

The Queen

I was queusing for a burrito when they announced the Queen had died. Strange kind of day.

V5?

Not to jinx it, but I might get to play V5 this autumn! Now to decide between about a dozen character ideas.

RPGaDay 2022

RPGaDay2022

1 - Who would you like to introduce to RPGs?

Kids should get to see the kid-friendly options out there.

Birthday!

Birthday outing - Thor: Love And Thunder. Thankfully it didn't piss me off!

And then wings, because that goes with Thor movies.

4th of July

Happy 4th of July! The USA is home to a lot of wonderful people, as you regularly remind me.

V5: Alone

New V5 game!

Two old hand players, two I know but haven't GMed for.

Nothing much to report yet, we did Session Zero.

Little updates after cut

Ms. Marvel

Ms. Marvel 101 was lovely.

Truth In Television

The What We Do in the Shadows press conference has suffered a zoom error so every reporter in the zoom is named "Stephen" and there's no way to change it so they have to just keep calling out "Stephen" and hope someone answers this is the best thing that's happened in weeks
