I’ve settled on the word “cozy” to describe Micro.Blog. There’s no algorithm to hustle me. Folks post missives on pens and typewriters, share photos of warmth and whimsy. I follow people on Micro.Blog after careful consideration. I‘ve no idea who and how many people follow me, and neither do I care.
It tickles me to no end that introduced one of my oldest friends to RPGs through one of the most unlikely games: Xas Irkalla, a survival horror RPG. From there, we moved on to Mothership, a sci-fi game which ended in paranoia, betrayal and death. And now we’re going to play Warhammer: Dark Heresy.

Unfortunately, my much-anticipated IG interview with Soundwave’s guest deejay Simon Grab fell through. There’s still hope for a future chat, but I did convey what I admire about his music - the artist’s personality shines through his minimal techno style, a rarity in the genre.
One of the unique aspects of our Mothership game is the characters have access to, they can send encrypted messages, stream video, and so on. They also have complete schematics of the lab ship, Habitat, and excavation site they’re investigating. It’s not like Dungeons & Dragons in those respects.

I’ll be chatting with Simon Grab about his music and his mix for today’s Soundwave podcast on Instagram at 11 AM Pacific.

Charlie and I have spent the last year writing, planning, and arguing on our webcomic, Vikings vs Samurai. I’m excited to share a sample of some rough pencils from our illustrator, Dejan Mandić. Having our script and notes translated into a comic book is a dream come true, and we’ve only just begun!

Finally watched Midsommar. Worth the wait. Amazed I avoided spoilers. Horror seems to be experiencing a resurgence, and I’m all about it. It’s a genre that tells you a lot about the culture you’re living in. The 70s and early 80s had some great movies, but then was dominated by gore and jump scares.

We’re approaching the endgame of our Mothership adventure. Like every science fiction survival-horror movie you’ve seen, things have progressed to an exponential clusterfuck, which means I have a lot of writing to do to prepare for tomorrow’s session.

Every morning I listen to two albums. Today I listened to John Barleycorn Reborn: Dark Britannica and Post Apocalypse Now by Sumner.🎵

Finished reading: Occultation and Other Stories by Laird Barron 📚 The Beautiful Thing That Awaits Us All was my introduction to Barron. He’s always been a reliably entertaining and ghoulish writer. I suspect I’ll eventually read all his books.
