Check out the OSR subreddit for old school play style resurgence. It’s actually been going on for close to 20 years at this point! I started playing 2e again around 2008, and have been playing some version of the BX retro-clones since 2010.

Also not a fan of High Fantasy, my usual games have been influenced by the late Tudor thru Stuart era, fairy tales & folklore, and Fritz Leiber.

Edit: free rule sets!

Yeah, you go to any bar in Cambridge and everyone knew for a long time. A lot of folks (ladies) didn’t want to speak out for fear of not being able to score another job in the area.

When I worked for the ME in the late 2000s my GF at the time wouldn’t come visit me ‘cause Joseph used to call her at like 2am and ask what she was up to. I don’t know how I didn’t see that as a red flag.

Cathy used to cover for his shit also.
