Lawnmower Boy reacted to Ternaugh in Political Discussion Thread (With Rules)
They're actually trying to appeal to a bunch of little demographic groups, while hoping that they magically get a large demographic swath. The result is a bunch of underwhelming programs, and the occasional cake-based show.

Lawnmower Boy reacted to Christopher R Taylor in Champions Rises
Honestly I'd really rather not have to build an entire city for a quick fun campaign but its probably necessary 😕
Its easy enough to do in one sense: just steal parts of existing cities and paste them together but still.

Lawnmower Boy reacted to DShomshak in What Fantasy/Sci-Fi book have you just finished? Please rate it...
The Invisible Library by Genevieve Cogman. First of a series. A jolly romp about acqyiring rare books for an interdimensional library. Alternate histories, faeries, a Great Detective, steampunk London, vampires, dragons, and more fun. Not a serious bone in it, unless you count the suggestions of poisonous office politics among senior librarians, which suggests to me that Ms. Cogman once worked in the Tacoma Library System. (As my sister did for many years and I did... briefly.) The style is arch to just the right degree, in that way Brits do so well.
Possibly of interest to some readers that Ms. Cogman once wrote a fair bit of material for the Exalted RPG and ported a fair bit into the series. Her Fae, as creatures of primal Chaos, are ported directly from Exalted (OK by me since it's a view of Fae she had a large role in creating in the first place). I shall see if her version of dragons intersects with Exalted as well. Could be: In Exalted, dragons are powerful elemental spirits, and at one point a dragon wields elemental power.
We game writers are all frustrated novelists. It's nice to see that one of our crew made the transition so well.

Lawnmower Boy reacted to Cancer in Foods for those that just don't care anymore
News has it that Fred Franzia, the guy behind Charles Shaw wines, has passed.
... So, we'll be cracking open a bottle of Two Buck Chuck to have with our ratatouille for dinner tonight. (I was sent to get nice fresh vegetables from a farmers' market for the ratatouille this afternoon.)

So you’re just against making changes to laws then.

Lawnmower Boy got a reaction from Sociotard in Political Discussion Thread (With Rules)
Yeah, let's talk about the new female ruler of that offshore western island. Is she going to reduce the VAT, cap energy bills, or invade the Undying Lands?
