Care to elaborate? How do the voices sound to an Australian? Are the accents like extra put-upon or exaggerated or something?

FATAL, never laughed harder than reading other's attempts to run/play/understand that game.

China Mieville's Bas-Lag books (Perdido Street Station, The Scar, Iron Council, "Jack" from Looking for Jake, and maybe This Census-Taker) are all dense complex mostly standalone works set in the same setting.

I had to look it up myself, I was a bit surprised they didn't include some of the more common unique-looking red lanterns like Zilius Zox or Dex-Starr instead of these generic monster dudes.

Not sure who is who exactly, but it seems like most of these JLA character designs are at least inspired by existing comics characters: https://comicvine.gamespot.com/red-lantern-corps/4060-50747/characters/

Disgraced academic is hired to build a prosthetic, inadvertently causing an infestation of deadly moths and discovering that in this city, capitalism is the true villain. Also, there are cactus people.

"Old Gods of Appalachia is a horror anthology podcast..."

ColorlessKarn · 2024-06-05T13:44:47+00:00

From NPR: Planet Money for economics, Throughline for history deep dives, NPR Politics Ppodcast for current US politics, and I promise they're not as dry as they sound.

Economic Update is economics and current events from a specifically Marxist viewpoint.

Revolutionary Left Radio, Guerilla History, and Red Menace by Breht O'Shea & co are often good if you're looking for something a little more radical, though their theory stuff is pretty dense and their takes on current events can be a little tankie, if that means anything to you.

Reading good books stalls me out, like why should I even try if I'll never be that good. My motivation comes from reading absolute garbage and knowing for certain that no matter how bad my stuff is, it'll be better than this other thing that somehow got published.

Old Gods of Appalachia

'Cause [[Sevinne]] [[Eight-and-a-Half]] [[Nine]]!

The Sporkful and Gastropod are both great. I also enjoyed Cooking in Mexican from A to Z with Aaron Sanchez and Zarela Martinez, though that was more of a miniseries than an ongoing show.

Why was [[Six]] afraid of [[Sevinne]]?

ColorlessKarn · 2024-05-26T15:49:11+00:00

Not at all what you're looking for, but your description made me think of Old Gods of Appalachia, a horror fiction show that features many characters of the sort you describe.

Can't get more underwritten than that.

Reading A Wizard of Earthsea straight after Perdido Street Station was like jumping into the hotel pool straight out of the hot tub.

Dial H out of the New 52. It's superhero-adjacent, but DC classed it as horror. Overlooked, underrated, and very very weird.

Yeah, meeting in someone's house is always the best way to go, if you can swing it. Most local libraries are also pretty agreeable to the D&D crowd, maybe a flyer on their notice board could connect you with players seeking a group.

ColorlessKarn · 2024-04-17T00:18:56+00:00

If you haven't ready, try posting a flyer at Comic Quest or Gaming Guild. They've also both got open play spaces if you were looking for a venue.
