objet trouve one-page dungeon (homicidally inclined persons of no fixed address) uses a bit of old propaganda for a dungeon
A Year Atop A Woolly Mammoth (Wyrd Fish) gives us this quote:
“This mix of slow, ponderous friendship and network building approach is perfect for how I want to exist and hobby online. I’m emotionally invested in seeing how other folks I’ve met through the Hobbyverse are getting on – both personally and with their hobby projects. There’s really nothing as satisfying as getting to know someone with a common interest, watching them think a project through out loud online, and then watch their journey through to the end point.”
