Over the last week, I've binge re-watched every episode of #TheGoodPlace. Watching “live”, I’d thought it dipped for a lot of season 3, but in truth that turned out to be two episodes in a row that didn’t connect with me. It’s not perfect, but it’s ambitious, funny, moving and better than a lot of things being hyped at the moment. It’s biggest strength is that it’s willing to change, often before an idea has had every drop squeezed out of it. Watch it if you haven’t and can.
#RPGaDAY2023 Day 17: I've ran and played many games and many game sessions that were fun, as in smart, thrilling, hilarious, but right off the top of my head, I'd say the funniest game I have in mind is a very recent one I run: #TheGoodPlace with #DramaSystem. The Drama scenes were so witty and clever, wild and crazy, and I had to put my microphone on mute so many times as I was laughing so loudly! What a game! #ttrpg#rpg#jdr#Hillfolk@pelgranepress@robindlaws@foundryvtt#RPGaDAY
Ce week-end, j'ai lu ce #livre de vulgarisation #philo, écrit par Michael Schur, le créateur (entre autres) de la géniale série #thegoodplace, et c'était drôle intéressant.

Je me suis rendu compte que, sans le faire exprès, j'ai utilisé un marque-page (que j'avais réalisé pour mon précédent crowdfunding) qui collait très bien au sujet et à la couv.
Started rewatching #TheGoodPlace again, and I can’t believe that I JUST noticed that the doors in Eleanor’s house make the same electronic noise as the automatic doors throughout the Village in the ‘60s show #ThePrisoner . That is a deep cut on the part of sound design!
I've finally managed to start GMing a game of #DramaSystem using #TheGoodPlace as a setting. Tonight we created the characters and we've already had such a blast! Besides, it's always a joy and honour to welcome newcomers to the #ttrpg hobby, people who got there with some DnD expectations about #rpg and who end up excited by a completely different approach. @robindlaws@pelgranepress@foundryvtt#Hillfolk
@robindlaws@pelgranepress@foundryvtt Welcome to the Good Place, with the spirit of a dog caught in the body of her old dying mistress, a drag queen who's afraid to reveal his talents, a loner who wants people to laugh at his jokes, a demon as a houswife Karen, and a demon as an ultra-optimistic life-coach.
Everything's already in place to go wrong.

I've been listening to my very first audiobook, How to Be Perfect by Michael Shur, and really enjoying it. It's like a reeeeeeeeally long podcast with no ad breaks. Also, since I'm a huge fan of The Good Place, hearing all the actors randomly read passages is awesome.
