- You can’t come in.

- Please! It’s pouring outside.

- Last time, you ate two of my companions.

- I won’t do that again, I promise!

- That’s easy to say. There’s nobody in here but me.

- What? There were six of you when I left last time.

- They, um, disappeared.

- What happened?

- Don’t ask.

- Ha! I know what you did. You – ouch! Let my in, it’s acid rain again.

- No.

- Come on, I won’t tell anybody. And you can plug your charging device into my plorgnexum, if you want.

- Okay, that’s a deal. But be warned, I have a railgun ready, fully charged, just in case.

- I promise, I’ll behave myself.

The hangar door opens and slowly, Fnobbles crawls in, shaking acid and greenish slime off his pseutacles and waving innocently with his five telescope eyes.

– Thanks! That rain was unbearable! Oh, by the way… you wouldn’t happen to have anything—or anyone—in the freezer, would you?

- The freezer is down for two weeks. Had to can and preserve everything.

- Those jars over there? Yummy!

One week to go! In June I will be offering my month-long "Meet #TheLastMan" module with SPACE (Signum Portals for Adult Continuing Education) #online via #SignumUniversity.

This #MaryShelley novel is one of the most relevant books we can read right now, and I can't wait to discuss it with students!

Rage of the #Oligarchs - #NaomiKlein: ‘What They Want Is Absolutely Everything’

The all-star academic and Shock Doctrine author breaks down the dark logic of Trump and Musk’s path of destruction — and what the world’s richest people really want

May 4, 2025

Excerpt: [Klein] "But now, #capitalism has entered a radical and #apocalyptic phase. There is no #utopian vision in any of this. Instead, there’s a final battle. And this is where it gets really dark. The people who are advancing this agenda are also building their #LuxuryBunkers and their #spaceships to #Mars. They don’t believe that there is a future. These people believe history is ending, literally. It’s end times! Get onto your rocket ship, or get into your golden city in the sky. And that is distinct."

Bestial Human Vulture
Hand drawn Ink art by William McAusland, writing by Colin Chapman and W. McAusland
Bald-headed and ugly, bestial human vultures and condors are the least appealing of the bird-men, and their dietary preferences and reputations do nothing to endear them to human communities.
They are carnivores with a decided preference for carrion. Indeed, they prefer carrion that is particularly ripe, as they say it adds an extra layer of flavor, and while they can eat fresh meat, they enjoy rotting flesh much more.

You can play these bestial human critters using the new rule book.

Day two in my series the Greenland Diaries. Highly easy to sink into right now as I'm releasing the first part on my blog. The monsters are incredible. I dare you to figure them and tell me what is happening.

Bestial Human Road Runner
Hand drawn Ink art by William McAusland, writing by Colin Chapman
Long-legged and quick (move 12m per round), bestial human road runners are omnivores with a taste for bugs, lizards, snakes, and rodents, as well as vegetation. They have a sharp beak and talons (SV +7/ DMG 1d10), and react quickly to opportunity and danger (+1 initiative).
Humanoid road runners can fly clumsily with their wing-arms (10m per round), and while airborne can use their misshapen hands, to either employ a one handed weapon or drop a rock or grenade from each hand.

"A Boy and His Dog"

"In a post-apocalyptic wasteland, a boy who can communicate with his dog telepathically is targeted by a mysterious committee."

Somehow, my memory of watching it in 1975 has been sparked by bits and pieces of current events, and why I'm about to click the play button again.

I won't spoil it for you, but I will say this... #Elon might want to remember to 'watch out for what you wish for'.

Bestial Human Porcupine
Hand drawn Ink art by William McAusland, writing by Colin Chapman

Armored with a multitude of long quills, humanoid porcupines are dangerous to tackle even if they are otherwise inoffensive and slow. These bestial humans are herbivores capable of digesting most vegetable matter including twigs, bark, pine needles, and other foodstuffs that might be considered inedible.

Bestial Human Penguin
Hand drawn Ink art by William McAusland, writing by Colin Chapman

With their waddling gait, short legs, and slow walk, bestial human penguins are considered quite comical, and because of this they have little difficulty being accepted into many human communities, though they may find themselves figures of fun in these. Of course, most humans overlook the carnivorous nature of penguin-men, and the fact that these birdoids can deliver a savage bite with their beak (SV +7/ DMG 1d10).
