A little pre-game #DND lore for tonight's session:

Always Pay The Ferryman - http://telisar.evilchi.li/posts/always_pay_the_ferryman/

replaced the #DND campaign tumblr with a hugo-powered static site and i am very happy about it.

Noobhammer! - http://telisar.evilchi.li/

Got busted for stealing that chair.

also it's cesspool.

Someone at work transitioned and the announcement email got so many responses of congratulations and encouragement she couldn't reply to them all.

Tech is a sesspool, so we gotta cheer for these little moments of humanity when they occur.

@benhamill ROU Proportionate Response Is Irresponsible

@benhamill i immediately gravitate to Culture ship names but this may not be there optimal strategy for you. what's your mech doing?

Dingus: Hello I'm Mr. Cool Guy.
Me: you still have yogurt on your face, Cool Guy.

#DadOps

reallocated these resources from a few rows down the hall to maximize my productivity. #DevOps #agile #FurnitureIsPower

coupla days late but finally got my Lambert House tee. ♥️

Added a lexical date parser to my #dnd campaign calendar, and used it to put together a timeline of major events because there's no hope for me now.

hey #language nerds, when defining a thing relative to something else, as in:

X is before Y

What is the name for Y? There's a word and I can't find it. Referent? Subject?

@erinbee i had to buy a quart of each flavour. worth it.

Okay, non-hosers, this is Tiger Tail: vanilla, orange and black licorice. As a kid visiting my grandparents summers outside London, Ontario we'd stop at the end of the road and visit Salim and Mrs. Salim's gas station and ice cream stand and I'd get tiger tail swirl.

@rey my very first piece of open source software, written in vbasic for dos when i was 14, was a contact management app for field day operators. :)

@djsundog yes yes y'all.

@evilchili

Dingus (reading my shirt): Pops, what is a sucka MC?
Me: son when a rapper fronts like he can rock the party, that rapper is a sucka MC.
Dingus: so they're bad.
Me: Whack, son. They are whack.
Dingus: *nods* whack.

#DadOps

I posted this just prior to tonight's session to help set the tone. I stole it from Patrick Rothfuss's _the Wise Man's Fear_ because I am shameless. But it captures the theme of my campaign really well I think.

#DND #SorryNotSorry

Several players were only able to attend a portion of tonight's session, so I framed it as an opportunity to focus in on role-play, to explore each other's back stories, and generally have a low-stress drop in/drop out night. They did not disappoint! #dnd
