## <time>2022-09-03</time> - Feed Esoterica
|

|
|
||
|
Okay some of you will get a kick out of this.
|
||
|
|
||
|
I decided I needed to roll my own feeds, and so I used ED to programatically edit my source files into recfiles, used an m4 include in one instance, and then used recfmt templates to create the rss items.
|
||
|
|
||
|
That is right. Ed, m4, and recutils.

|

|
|

|
It is definitely *not* true that I based the looks of Iofi and Maddox on Shelley Duvall and Robin Williams from the 1980 American musical comedy smash hit *Popeye*.

## <time>2022-09-01</time> - episodes rss feed
|
||
|
|
||
|
Made an update that will hopefully fix the links in the Episodes feed.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If not, I might need to start handrolling a feed instead of relying on [blog.miso.town](https://blog.miso.town).
|
||
|
|
||
|
In fact, I just noticed that the journal feed is kind of borked too.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Yeah I may just need to create my own feeds..

Hey gamers it's ya boy dozens!
|
||
|
|
||
|
This update focuses briefly on Meadowgloom. Which is a name I snatched up from a fantasy name generator. It also generated the astounding name "Eccentric Kevin". Who is a character I have every intention of introducing at some point as a perfectly normal, sane, and reasonable straight man.

|

Hey I started a new thing!
|
||
|
|
||
|
This is the narrative version of a solo roleplaying game.
|
||
|
|
||
|
It is based on the mechanics and the *callings* of [Brighter Worlds by awkwardturtle][brighter]. It is a lovely game and I wanted to play it. I came up with the setting and the starting scenario using [GRAPES and WTAF?! tarot spreads as described by Sean F. Smith][grapes]. And then I used the [One Page Solo Engine][opse] to answer questions during play.
