My Star Trek Anniversary for My OGL Posts. Wait, What? #TTRPG #RPG #Copyright #OGL #DnD #StarTrek
If you enjoy this post, please retweet it. And now for something stupid. As of today, it’s been 1701 days since I published Part I of my posts on the copyrightability of stat blocks. 1701 days. Get it? No? Here’s some help. I wrote this post on February 15, 2023, over one year ago. Here’s some proof. I just wrote a #blog post and scheduled it for April 8, 2024. I'm not as ahead in my writing…

A Rant About the Silver Surfer Casting, but Not the One You May Expect #MCU #SilverSurfer #comic #movie #FantasticFour
If you enjoy this post, please retweet it (Twitter/X), boost it (Mastodon), repost it (MeWe), or repost it (BlueSky). I don’t read comics, so my knowledge of them is spotty. Also, I’m far more concerned that Marvel hire actors based on their talent rather than whether they remain faithful to the comics. Ergo, having no sentimentality towards the print medium, changing up the characters doesn’t…

Gary Con 2024 Post-Mortem #TTRPG #RPG #DnD #ADnD #GaryCon #StarTrek #DelveRPG @GaryCon @DelveRPG
If you enjoy this post, please retweet it (Twitter/X), boost it (Mastodon), repost it (MeWe), or repost it (BlueSky). My thoughts on Gary Con will be brief. I doubt I’ll return. This isn’t a criticism of the con anymore than a non-football fan not liking a football game is a criticism of how good of a job the NFL is doing. It’s simply something that doesn’t appeal to me. I know a few industry…

Just Another Voice in the Choir: RIP James Ward #RPG #TTRPG #DnD #ADnD #gaming #RIP #JamesWard
If you enjoy this post, please retweet it (Twitter/X), boost it (Mastodon), repost it (MeWe), or repost it (BlueSky). When I started running 1st Edition D&D again two years ago (first time in 40 years), I gathered and took an inventory of my 1st Edition material, and then went on a spending spree. Then I went on another. About a year ago, I somehow made a purchase that blew my mind. It’s a mint…

Operation: Cat Aquisition #cat #pet #Caturday #PetSmart @PetSmart
If you enjoy this post, please retweet it (Twitter/X), boost it (Mastodon), repost it (MeWe), or repost it (BlueSky). Yes, this is a day late for Caturday. Sue me. I received my $7,320 tax refund that resulted from my Tesla purchase, and while I’m going to roll most of it back into the car, I had two recreational purchases I knew I was going to be making with those funds. The first was a…

Gaming the System #gambling #casino #blackjack #Tesla #IRS #tax
If you enjoy this post, please retweet it or boost it. Funny story. With last week being pretty rough, I needed a win, and I got one. I received my huge tax refund on Saturday. In order to make my Tesla reasonably affordable, I have to roll most of that back into the car. However, I earmarked $2,500 for luxury items. In particular, I’m getting a kitten (maybe two) along with everything I need…

Norma: Part II #RIP #death #FuckCancer
Yesterday, I posted about the death of my cousin, Norma. As I continue to parse out my feelings on the matter, I decided to supplement that post with a couple of other things. First, with respect to the Frankie Valli story, when Norma and her friend disengaged from Frankie, I told her what almost happened. She reminded me that, while she was (of course) appreciative of my concern, she wasn’t…

Norma: A Consequence of Estrangement #RIP #death #FuckCancer
I’m going to share a memory with you. I don’t know if it’s my best memory of my cousin, Norma, but it’s the one that immediately comes to mind. Norma and a friend came to Chicago when I was in law school (1999 IIRC). We were barhopping in the Rush Street district, which was a popular weekend spot back then. Frankie Valli, a singer well-known for his small acting and large musical roles in…

An Unexpected Supplement to My Stash of (A)D&D Material #DnD #TTRPG #RPG #WotC #1e #2e #3e #4e
If you enjoy this post, please retweet it or boost it. My return to 1st Edition AD&D (“1e“) is now two years strong, and now I’ve added a 4th Edition D&D (“4e“) game to my schedule. So, it was a nice surprise for my friend, Mike, to let me know that he was offloading his old school D&D material. Before you get too excited, he’s giving these materials only to people he knows well because we’re…

Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah! #nye #holiday #muppet
If you enjoy this post, please retweet it. I wrote this post on January 31, 2023. I’m sure this is old news by now, but that’s not my fault. The fact that it’s been shared so much since the year started just establishes that you have poor comedic timing. Mind. Blown. Not really. Follow me on Twitter @gsllc

I Love You to Death. . . . Not you. I’m referring to the #movie. #KevinKline #TraceyUllman #Keanu #comedy
If you enjoy this post, please boost it via BlueSky, Mastodon, and/or Twitter/X. Social media led me to an article entitled, Popular Movies That Aren’t Available to Stream Anywhere. Yes, I took the time to capitalize all the major words in that title because the Associated Press standard is stupid. Anyway, it’s an interesting list, and I’m sure you’ll sympathize with a lot of their choices.…

My Favorite Album by The Cars #music #album @thecarsband
If you enjoy this post, please boost it via BlueSky, Mastodon, and/or Twitter/X. A random thought inspired this post, which will likely result in a series of posts. I asked myself which album was my favorite among those produced by the Cars. There are honestly only four candidates for me: The Cars (1978), Candy-O (1979), Shake It Up (1981), and Heartbeat City (1984). All of these albums are…

The Graveyard Scene from the D&D Movie #DnDMovie #DnD #ADnD #RPG #TTRPG
If you enjoy this post, please boost it via Bluesky, Mastodon, or Twitter. Timing is apparently not my strong suit. A few days ago, someone mentioned how much they loved the graveyard scene in the Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves. Watch the scene here before it disappears. I wasn’t as big a fan of the scene. Sure, it was funny, but it exemplifies the difference between legacy and modern…

Yesterday Was Brutal, Which Is Par for the Course for Attorneys #law #attorney #ethics
If you enjoy this post, please retweet it and/or boost it. If you think being a lawyer is easy, which at this point you’re a dope if you do, I can assure you that it isn’t. Yesterday was an example of why it isn’t, and in a way that wasn’t obvious. Am I doing this right? I’ve never played Mortal Kombat. Here’s something to which many non-lawyers can relate. Is there any time period or specific…
