@lizardsquid If you make one, what will it be about (inclusive) or involve?

I have a feeling the "clubhouse" (for lack of a better term) will be a hollow space, partially dug out, under a large tree stump near a beach. The entrance gives a view of the sea. The place is decorated with curtains and filled with enough cushions and pillows that you have to wade through them.

An overactive fantasy is a good thing to have.

Information Management, 1998:

"Let's put absolutely every information resource on the planet, onto this newfangled Web thing. Everything that used to be a document or file folder or application, will just be a Page."

"That's great! Let's do it!"

Information management, 2018:

"So, we did it. We put absolutely every information resource on the planet into a web page. Billions of 'em. We open hundreds, thousands at a time.

And browse them as a tiny ribbon at the top of one fullscreen window."

doctor who, improving my own storytelling (in improv games) 

now I know I'm better than *some* others - I once spent ~245 in an Ars Magicka campaign, where nothing ever went wrong or had any consequence

but this is still an area I need to improve - I need to put characters in situations where either:
* If they don't succeed at <task>, the consequences are awful
* Both choice A and B result in difficult consequences
