Yeah, I should’ve gotten to this one earlier. Told you I’d be mostly away from the computer. Between a short bout with the flu my familial and social circles are kicking around, plus a little musical performance, some gaming and a pretty great New Years’ party, I haven’t had the time.
Anyway – Like I usually do, I went back and picked a couple of the pieces that I or others have liked over the course of the year, and figured might be worth reading again, if you were so inclined. Some of these are personally significant, others less so, but their a pretty good sampling of the original work here this year; a year when life got in the way a lot and there was actually a lot less original work than there’s been recently.
- ten years after
- “indoctrination mills” and social engineering
- fus ro dichotomy
- being aware of “awareness” campaigns
- who says you can’t go home? – the unique experience of teenage fandom
- a vague little story about a particular confluence of events…and some gratitude
- on tribalism and the fall of lions
- so much depends
- always the moon
- books I’ve been meaning to get to
- Shamokin – 1997-2012
- The final confrontation – council of spiders, session eight (and the rest of the campaign write-ups, for that matter)
