DC HEROES was designed by the brilliant Greg Gorden and published by Mayfair Games. Its innovative mechanics scale seamlessly from Batman throwing punches to Superman throwing mountains, and for my money, they remain unequaled. Check it out!
I can finally announce that I've been working with DC and Cryptozoic to celebrate one of my favorite TTRPGs of all time by reprinting the legendary DC HEROES--all of it!--to celebrate the game's 40th Anniversary. https://t.co/rf2ZeAApVM
I wrote a bunch of modules and sourcebooks for DCH--some of my first published RPG designs--working with folks like Alan Moore, Denny O'Neill, and Keith Giffen along the way. I also reworked and expanded DCH for its 2nd Edition in 1988.
Elon Musk is a mediocrity who gleefully creates and propagates conspiracy theories that undermine our democracy and put lives at risk for his own benefit. I’m leaving this platform and I encourage you all to do the same. Find me on bsky, threads, and elsewhere.
@BrynnTannehill People should view them the same way they view pundits handicapping NFL games. The NFL predictions aren’t useless—you want to be the favorite—but nobody believes they’re a definitive indicator of who is going to win. A lot of folks give polling averages more credence than that.
@BrynnTannehill Polls aren’t useless—they’re particularly good at identifying trends, and of course, it’s bad news if your candidate is polling behind—but they’re not as definitive as people think. /4
@BrynnTannehill Thats how Trump over-performed the polls in 2016/20. Pollsters are constantly tinkering with their models, but at bottom, they’re still just educated guesses. 2022 was the best polling year on record and the average poll was still off by 7 points. /3
At last night’s VNN debate on Superhuman affairs, Deep charmed the world with his dreamy blue eyes, emo eyeliner, searing intellect and thoughtful straight talk that everyone agreed is exactly who he is in real life!
@hugolowell@Acosta “Look, our candidate may very well assert that 2+2=5, or down is up, or Oompa-Loompas are casting illegal votes in Michigan. But challenging these assertions is “election interference.” We have to let the people decide.”
@TheStevenCheung LOL. I’m pretty sure if Walter Mondale said in 1984 that Martians were illegally voting and Reagan invited them to earth to eat our pets, Mike Wallace would have called bullshit.
She is wishing you well in terms that are meaningful to her, underscoring her sincerity. She’s not proselytizing or trying to convert you, she’s showing you respect. Be a human and show her respect in return. (And BTW, “blessed” doesn’t prove she’s Christian.”)
@emptywheel Certainly possible, but I have to think that with all the entities grifting off Trump, if there was an unmet demand for signs, several somebodies would be filling it.
@HDTGM Please, please, please devote an episode to M. Night’s TRAP. This is the most bonkers movie I’ve ever seen, but I won’t believe I didn’t imagine it until I hear your take, confirming it’s real.
