Putting my foot down

It’s official, I have to put my foot down. NO MORE GRID-WIDE HUNTS. I don’t want to hunt in any more, I don’t want to partake as a business in any more. It’s getting–no. It’s gotten ridiculously out of hand. I swear to god I’m going to make a t-shirt that says “PRAD WAS RIGHT”. … Continue reading »

Reclaiming the term “Role Playing”

Why people who fake deaths suck

Mysteriously Beautiful, Physically Painful

Life has these moments of Mysterious Beauty scattered throughout it; moments we rarely can predict and sometimes don’t recognize when they occur.
