Now that I've got notes (kind of) working on my website, and in accordance with Own Your Data, I've asked for my #Twitter archive, so I can start thinking about porting over the "greatest hits" for posterity.

I've been looking around at the #IndieWeb and #Yesterweb movements and it's very amusing to me that the IndieWeb folks are all interoprability! open source! microformats! and meanwhile Yesterweb are faithfully recreating neon animated gif geocities gore and look like they're having much more fun.

@shaun I know this is a blast from the past, but I just grabbed your scandir_chrono function from your blog and discovered a small issue: because the array is keyed by the timestamp, if you have any files created in quick succession, they overwrite each other. Luckily I don't need the actual timestamp, just the relative order.

Anyway, still saved me a bunch of time, thanks!

#manga newbie here; I’d like to read Delicious In Dungeon, digitally, preferably on my iPhone or iPad. What’s the go-to app/service/whatever to do that? Ideally I’d just buy that and not end up with another subscription service…

Picked up my #ironsworn #soloRPG campaign and did some book-keeping and a time-skip to give me a fresher start; unfortunately that meant the death of a bonded connection, Tancrede. My PC is pretty upset about it, as she (kind of rightly) blames herself for his passing.

Rest in peace, Tancrede. You were a good bond and gave me many +1s to my rolls.

I really love how if you play #ironsworn (or #starforged) for long enough, and keep an open mind and extensive notes, the oracles will provide. It all works out in the end.

I’ve been thinking about where to site a large dungeon complex for delving in my Ironsworn campaign, and I just noticed one of the first settlements I created has “Extensive catacombs” already rolled as a feature. It’s also adjacent to a mountain range, and has a stable militia. That’ll do, no?

Just remembered. Last night my wife rolled over in bed and said to me, quite earnestly, but also completely still asleep: “But — I don’t like steak and kidney pies”.

“That’s okay,” I said, “are you dreaming about pie? We’ll get you another one.”

“It’s not that easy,” she replied, and rolled back over.

Been playing some #ironsworn (technically #starforged in the Ironlands setting).

I wanted to spend some XP to upgrade my “Bind” asset, and fictionally the power I would gain requires wearing a pelt from an “elder beast” to use.

So I swore a vow to slay an elder bear, an extreme-ranked foe. All the preparing, gathering some allies to help, tracking it down, then actually killing the thing involved making two further vows and two expeditions. But I did it, and it felt suitably extreme! #soloRPG

I’ve been playing a little more Starforged and a one-off session of Knave, read through Mausritter and got a bit nostalgic for Advanced Fighting Fantasy, too.

Basically I want a TTRPG project for 2024 and I’m not 100% sold on #hexplore24, which also doesn’t seem to have the mass behind it like #dungeon23 did. What to do, what to do…

There’s a big community wiki (keeping it vague) that I’d love to contribute to more, but their own page templates and the fact it’s hosted on Fandom means creating content for it is such a massive pain in the arse. Fandom is awful.

I’m sure the boss would baulk but I took an hour this afternoon to: close ancient Chrome and Sublime tabs, consolidate notes in obsidian, archive emails and just generally tidy up a bit. Background stress levels falling. Nice Friday afternoon activity.

I was kind of bummed at work this morning that I’d have to start working on a job I really don’t want to, but then a more important, urgent job I don’t want to work on came along. So that’s all good then.
