If @CTVNews bows to pressure, how can we trust it to accurately report news? Answer: We can't. Do better. Find a spine or stop pretending that you're journalists.

All Clear, All Broken swordsedgepublishing.ca/2025/01/19/all…

All Clear, All Broken In this one-page adventure seed, the PCs are called to intervene in an arcology that the authorities have abandoned. A gang has come in to fill the void, leaving the residents very vulnerable. The PCs have one key advantage—they’re awesome. Link below

@JimZub @HowardAndrewJon @jeffshanks @conanbycrom A wonderful human being.

RPG Thoughts: One System, Two Countries swordsedge.ca/2025/01/rpg-th…

RPG Thoughts: One System, Two Countries I’ve made assertions in the ‘system matters’ discussion that complex rule sets are a kind of genre. Now, I'll dig into my own play test to provide observations—and how I’m seeing sub-genres inside that "robust system" genre Link below

The Nuclear Option swordsedgepublishing.ca/2024/12/28/the…

The Nuclear Option In this adventure seed, the PCs are space marines. During a counter-piracy op, a vessel triggers radiological alarms, requiring a non-compliant boarding. Nukes ain’t great, but there are worse things in the worlds & the marines are on target to learn just that

Song of the Week: Goody Two Shoes swordsedge.ca/2025/01/song-o…

Song of the Week: Goody Two Shoes The song introduced me to Adam & the Ants. I can't excuse the appropriation. It's part of the music as well, & I don’t know how it squares, but Kings of the Wild Frontier was a unique sound that I love. Links below

I keep thinking no one can be THAT stupid. And yet . . . Maybe he is trying to con the Cons, but maybe--just maybe--it is what it looks like it is.

@SeanPKelley I hope they have a good sense of humour. I may have sent them some silly gifs 😁

@AccidentalFrase well, the text I got was from a local office of one of our political parties...

608.291.6150 This is my new phone number, please don't spam it. Please do not add it to all kinds of call lists. I'm being serious. It does take text messages and I would hate it if you were to text me all day with nonsense.

Sleeping Hearts, Full On Darkness swordsedgepublishing.ca/2025/01/12/sle…

Sleeping Hearts, Full On Darkness In this adventure seed, an exec frames an innocent employee who saw something they shouldn’t.The characters won’t let that happen. They’re up against a lot of money & very little morality. Link below

@SeanPKelley I have no idea. . . Do you?

@AccidentalFrase Every once in a while I bop over. Do you know where the number leads?

The Bad Founder Sleeps Well swordsedge.ca/2025/01/the-ba…

The Bad Founder Sleeps Well I watched both The Bad Sleep Well and The Founder over the holidays, and noticed some similarities. It’s a shame how often the heinous actually proper. Sometime we need to be reminded how crappy ‘high society’ truly is . . . and always has been.

Song of the Week: Don’t You Want Me swordsedge.ca/2025/01/song-o…

Song of the Week: Don’t You Want Me The Human League represents 80s synth-pop to me. This was the song that got me hooked. I wish I was more confident back in high school. I hid my appreciation for synth-pop. No longer. Not a guilty pleasure—it’s just a straight up pleasure!
