Just starting to come back to in-person gaming, but it's hard to get folks together.

These span from the 1960s to the present.
There's also a full shelf of first-gen Werewolf, Vampire, Mage, and GURPS.

I've had fun at previous Furalitys (Furalities?) and it's a good excuse to get back into VR.

The American scientist didn't have a gun, so a miss on that trope.

Just not a photogenic one. Tonight's commentary did manage to carry us all through it, though.
Thanks to @Taweret for tonight's taste of the seedy 70s!

#monsterdon tonight but sharing brain space with storms in the central US, so posting may be spotty.
# Monsterdon will be starting in about an forth-five minutes. A bunch of folks will be hitting play on a monster-themed movie at the same time and posting comments on it as they come to mind. Needless to say, that's a lot of posts (well over a thousand!) in a short time.
If you don't want to see all that, be sure you've got the hashtag muted (go to -> preferences -> filters -> add new filter).
If you do want to take part, come on in!
