I purchased Hazel and set up all the rules I’ve been devising the last few weeks. That accomplished, I’m stepping back and looking at my folder system with fresh eyes and what I might due with further automation.

Every morning I listen to two albums. Today I listened to Back to the Woodlands by Ernest Hood and Music Within by Interwoven. 🎡

Today I sent a postcard to one of the players in our upcoming Mothership game. When I saw how the mailbox was tagged, I recognized it as an ill omen.

I didn’t realize prepping for a Mothership game would become a meditation on cosmic horror and AI.

Every morning I listen to two albums. Today I listened to Berlin by Lou Reed and the Ghost Tropic by Songs: Ohia. 🎡

Tonight was the first time I’ve seen a police officer use a shotgun to apprehend someone.

It’s that time of day where someone drives around in their car through my neighborhood shouting “911 was an inside job by the CIA!” through a megaphone.

I watched Alien: Covenant last night in preparation for January’s Mothership game. I wasn’t a fan of the movie when it was initially released, but I now think it’s excellent!

Every morning I listen to two albums. Today I listened to Eurythmia by Eve Risser Red Desert Orchestra and the UNIVERSAL CODE by Muriel Grossmann. 🎡

In preparation for running Mothership I have been watching cosmic and survival horror science fiction movies like Event Horizon, Aliens, and Prometheus. I’m happy to run whatever game the players want, but if I had my druthers, I’d like to run a game that explores artificial life and cosmic horror.

After playing Xas Irkalla, our gaming group has decided to continue the theme of survival horror. We’re going to play Mothership next. This means I can finally run a setting that blends Bruce Sterling’s Shaper/Mechanist stories and Greg Egan’s Diaspora novel.

Every morning I listen to two albums. Today I listened to Little Floating Oracles by ATŌMI and Push by Maral. 🎡
