- Apparently it is my YouTube channel's fourth birthday. Thank you in advance for the gifts you will all bestow upon me.
- And what if - hear me out - you had multiple GMs doing this for different crews in different areas of Duskvol? Has anyone tried this before? It sounds like way too good of an idea for me to have thought of independently,

- Interesting…

- I mean, the map is big enough...

- Love their stuff so much.
- Or even - hear me out - West Marches?
- What if I ran a West Marshes style game of Blades in the Dark? Join the crew, there’s 20 of you. You get a discord notification and a date. First 3 people to commit do a heist that day/week? Everyone having to deal with other crew member’s heat/clear up their mess?
- My three types of RPG characters: 1. Me 2. Me with a slightly different voice. 3. Johnny Bravo
- The solution to this is simple. You look them in the eye. Clear the table. Roll out a sheet of gridded paper and some minis. "Roll initiative" you say, barely audible above the wailing.

- This is on my list for this year and I cannot wait to get it on the table.
- Is it me, or is that a lot less going on at UKGE in terms of live shows and seminars this year? I know I decided to have a year off, but did everyone else too?

- Hmmmm, that's curious. Wonder what the reasoning is. I know the main con is in different halls this year, but the other spaces all look the same. And if it is a policy change, it would be cool to know what that is!

- Interesting. A couple of big time games journalists ran into similar issues. When I spoke to UKGE I got told something very different from what other people were told. Something odd definitely going on.
- It does. Markedly so much less on. I have heard a few people saying they didn't get accepted, which is odd. Although getting Press accreditation was a real chore this year, having never previously had a problem in the past.
- Yes, I wrote 'so much less' like it is a normal way of talking
- My shopping list for UKGE is getting out of control. Also day 1 of UKGE is payday this could be a problem.

- Moonstone starter is definitely on it...
- Important poll happening over on my YouTube. Looking like a 2 horse race atm. youtube.com/post/Ugkxr01...

- I'm in
- I mean, I stepped away from Reddit for a variety of reasons, but the persistence of tiresome, functionally illiterate chuds like this was a big part of it.
- What’s a movie you think nobody but you and a handful of people have heard of, that you think is a fantastic film? Christ, so many. This one jumps out. Stunning stuff. And I’ve never met another human being who has actually seen this movie. Worked with the DP once though, fun fact.

- Didn’t you already ask me that
- Look, we know what we're doing.

- Explaining IrnBru to my American co-host was interesting
- We walked down the aisle to the Hobbiton theme. PLOT TWIST: We did not request that piece of music.

- Heading into the mid season break in style. Well, I say style. It's a bloody, sexy mess, as usual. @jessjewell.bsky.social @michellicopter.bsky.social @masquewren.bsky.social @jasoncordova.bsky.social youtu.be/bYgEodkUgAA

- Pope Blakely VII
- You’d think this fresh get up would soften the blow of some of the awful things he does to us. If anything, it only makes it worse.
- still processing this ngl
- I had a dream that I was the star of a new version of Space Jam and the cartoons were annoyed at me because I couldn’t dunk and I was like “guys I’m not even a basket ball player, there’s been a huge mistake”
- “IT’S DIFFERENT!” @jessjewell.bsky.social @jasoncordova.bsky.social Dr. Mortimer, the hypocrite #actualplay #gothic #horror #thebetween #pennydreadful youtube.com/shorts/QQstN...
- I'm not sure how this would work since it's a solo game But we need a Dr Mortimer cameo in Sundered Isles
- Every ship needs a surgeon
- Actual exchange I had with my wife yesterday: WIFE: How have you got Sriracha on your glasses? In fact, how did you get Sriracha on the INSIDE of your glasses? ME: I dunno. W: When did you have Sriracha? M: For lunch. At 1pm. W: IT IS 8PM HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE

- You see, you get it
- Ugh. Another day, another Discord I’ve had to leave because of AI discourse. Same “it’s part of our lives now, just accept it” argument. No, it’s not and I won’t. Get fucked you bootlicking simpleton.
- This episode's Sea Shanty was read by the delightful @jienbirb.bsky.social !
- In a shocking turn of events, Gideon and Lorenzo are BACK! I apologise for the cliffhanger in advance. youtu.be/K0nOAxq_NWg

- In a break from all the angsty monster hunting in Victorian London, regular programming has resumed. Live for Patrons now. The rest of you dirty rascals can have at it later this afternoon.

- The unnerving things is Jess had these photos before I even told her what the game was.
- My friends all have proper jobs and families and pensions and I pretend to be a pirate on the internet for like, 30 people.
