... I think I've ruined myself.
Every single time I hear the opening to "Bring Me to Life" by Evanescence, I 100% fully expect to hear Goofy start singing.

Not me, extremely wanting to run a Star Trek Adventures game.
Maybe if work hires me in to this position full time. I don't want to run something if my schedule goes back to them being able to have it different week to week.

I'm sure everyone has that one irrational thing in gaming discussions...
Mine is the Phoenix Downs in #FinalFantasy - they do not bring people back from the dead, they wake them up from knocked out status.
They wouldn't have worked on a certain someone in a very popular mainline game.

Do any of you also have a cat who plays fetch and gets extremely vocal if you don't comply? This screambeast won't let me be and makes it difficult to work.

It's really funny for me to learn that people *didn't* like this episode of SNW that I'm referring to ("What is Starfleet?").
This week's episode of #StrangeNewWorlds was so good. Possibly one of the best episodes of #StarTrek since DS9.

Whatever you think you should price your game at? It's probably not high high enough.
So many #TTRPG designers and devs asking social media how they should price their games.
Stop.
Thats not how it works, and watching old white dudes tell people games should only cost $3 is depressing.

If I had a nickel for every time Bad Wolves made a cover and wanted to feature the original singer only to have die just before it happened, I'd have two nickels...
Which isn't a lot but it's *really* weird it happened twice.
