Paris je t'aime

The Olympic opening ceremony was awesome, especially where not heavily censored.

Gojira, Mea Culpa

Accompanied by beheaded Marie Antoinettes in the bulding she was held in

Birthday!

Birthday! Books! DVDs! Chocolate! Cake! Strawberries! Tex-Mex! Trip to the cinema!

Our Brilliant Ruin

Our Brilliant Ruin, a steampunky apocalyptic horror RPG from Justin Achilli and others, and the ruleboom PDF is free.

Mage: The Ascension - Sunset City 3

Mage: The Ascension is back AND YES I AM A HOLLOW ONE.

Didi Duvall, The Worst, rides again.

Ksenia Solo as Kenzi in Lost Girl

Fortunately so do Cara, Simon, Alissa and Michael, our actual heroes.

Cara Lawson, Akashayana. Brave, kind, highly dangerous.

Holland Roden as Lydia in Teen Wolf

Simon Donovan, Hermetic. Somebody had to play a smart character.

Rupert Evans as Frank in The Man In The High Castle

Alissa Kwan, Ecstatic. Magic through energetic dance. More sensible than that makes her sound.

Paris Berelc as Alexa in Alexa & Katie

Michael Lang, Verbena. Interested in ancient rituals and weird occult stuff but not that creepy because it's not really that kind of chronicle.

Luke Grimes in Noir State Beach

Sunset City season 3

Didi Duvall Rides Out

WE HAVE REACHED THE -BERS! LIGHT THE NEED-FIRES!

Also this September, Didi Duvall rides again!

I apologize in advance.

J: We played mage for a minute online, I made a total bitch goth chick named Azazel Ravenous, Hollow One, who owned a club called Poison Apple. I loved that character so much, and not just because people didn't know how to react to another pc who was just mean as shit to everyone.

A Promise Or A Threat

If our Mage game returns and we do a beach episode, Didi Duvall, in her duty as THE WORST, will totally get a Tarot Hawaiian shirt.

Introducing Didi Duvall. She is the Worst.

Ksenia Solo as rarely helpful comedy sidekick Kenzi in Lost Girl

Vital Mage: The Ascension news:

Since someone else has chosen to be all heroic, I have decided to be a terrible sidekick.

I will at some point be reacting to a plan like this.

(roll eyes)

Or this.

(cringe)

Maybe also like this.

(tut)

Possibly even this.

(drinking shot)

I will probably give her nice moments too. Probably.

("I got your back no matter how stupid.")

Sometimes.

Wool, The Witch

Taylor Swift

Nice girl, good singer, I think she could go far.

Haven

Camarilla: "Did you just name your ominous techno club based in an old church 'Haven'?"

The player characters: "... no?"

June

It's June, annual reminder: Pride was a riot.

How not to blockbuster LARP

Jenny Nicholson, The Spectacular Failure of the Star Wars Hotel

Smash 'em up Jenny!

A four-hour examination of the $6000 Star Wars immersive theatre escape room hotel thing, ending by noting its big features were originally meant to be in the regular Star Wars park instead of the hotel.

Reuel: Her deconstruction of Evermore and The Last Bronicon are also very fun watches

FURIOSA

FURIOSA. WITNESSED.

It's bitty, but most of the bits are very good bits.

World Goth Day 2024

Happy World Goth Day! (or not obv)

When I grow up I want to be drawn by Abigail Larson.

Buffy, Chosen at 21

I'm fine

Summer?

Summer is coming (at least in calendar terms) and that can mean different RPGs running.

And that means... yes, ya witches:

Bambie Thug, Doomsday Blue

It's going to be one of THOSE Eurovisions.

.

(They're all THOSE Eurovisions.)

CROWN THE WITCH

Curseborne

Curseborne is a real thing.

(Character creation video)

Or is it?

Flesh Of The Gods

Mark K

This feels relevant to your interests:

Also, my preferred headline version:

Good news horndogs, Oscar Isaac and Kristen Stewart are doing a vampire movie together

Fair. And fair.

Getting the idea to run a game again. Maybe if I lie down until it goes away...

Taylor Swift, The Tortured Poets Department

All my mornings are Mondays stuck in an endless February

I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary

And I love you, it's ruining my life

Fortnight

I feel like maybe this is not going to be an up bouncy pop album.

Abigail

Abigail is lots of fun. Takes a bit to get going as it's just about impossible not to know the first twist (it's why I was there for one) but once it gets there it's ON.
