look, I know Gaiman and Pratchett said that even they hardly knew who wrote what in Good Omens but there are some lines that are just completely definitely unequivocally Pratchett to the core

Not everything a DM tries works out as intended. Sometimes a story arc falls flat, or a little extra description causes the party to halt for a few hours to fiddle with a rock…. it happens.
I was in a Lovecraftian GURPS campaign set in UK in the 1980s that ground to a halt for a solid hour because one of the players was adamant that we calculate the exact cost of plane tickets for our team.
Truly, rules lawyers are an eldritch abomination.
lifehack if the players are obsessed with something give it to them. Often a small interesting answer will make them stop faster than a hundred boring ones.
once my players rifled through some dead goblins’ clothes and i didnt expect that (dumb, i know) so i put a “very smooth pebble” in a pocket and the players were so interested in it they almost started a fight over it
i was one of the players and we were valid
very early in my campaign - like, 2 or 3 sessions in - the party went to explore a shipwreck. among the loot in the wreck was a black marble statue of a goddess called Blibdoolpoolp. I found her name in a list of d&d deities and thought she sounded cool. her domain is crustaceans and madness, which fit with the overall tone of my bullshit campaign, so I threw her in for a bit of ~flavor~
the party got… attached.
they lugged that statue back with them when they left the shipwreck, even though they were being chased by a sea serpent. they brought it back to the inn where they were staying. in-character, they started seeking out all the information they could about this silly throwaway goddess.
out of character, they started flooding the group chat with lobster memes.
eventually - and I mean, like, several months later - I just gave in and let them have a whole adventure fighting a cult that worked for Blibdoolpoolp, defeating the cult, and letting them take over as Blibdoolpoolp’s primary worshippers. she’s their patron deity now and showers them with crustacean-themed blessings.

ACHMED THE MAD. Klatchian necromancer, who taught himself magic partly by rial, but mainly by error. Author of the Necrotelicomnicon. It is said that he wrote it one day after he had drunk too much of the strange, thick Klatchian coffee, which sobers people up too much. Achmed preferred to be called ‘Achmed the I Just Get These Headaches.' He is also the author of Achmed the I Just Get These Headaches’s Book ofHumorous Cat Stories, the writing of which was said to have driven him mad in the first place.

If you’re interested in leeches as pets (and I explain how to keep them really easily here!), this website is the most legit and just sells them for around $7 each to the USA.
There’s a bunch of others but they’re almost all owned by the same company that mislabels its species, sells wild caught as captive bred, and other bad issues.

Pattern Release 6.20.19
It’s time to reset the glaring error counter! Fry is going on vacation for a little less than two weeks and we absolutely forgot to coordinate the Freespace Friday pattern while they are traveling today. So, for the sundae fucks with a cherry on top there will be a bit of a wait until we can recombobulate. However! We still have two patterns that are not lost in transit! As per usual they are pay what you want/what you can. This week we have:
Move to the Moon
Which can be found here.
Gender Prison
Which can be found here.
Happy Stitching!
Forgot to add that these patterns are the first two that we are offering a single page .pdf for! It’s still a work in progress so please leave us some feedback if you have any. We will work on getting these formatted for previous releases as well as future ones. The single page versions are cleverly labeled as “single”.
