Tim Earley is the creator of the aforementioned board game "Holler" and an incredible source of rich new storytelling within the Appalachian culture. His works are all on his website and he has some free poems and stories up there as well. He seems like an extremely professional and skilled version of what I'd like to be haha!
Got the exile part of the book Been putting it off very often
I wonder what this means
Did anyone have the same tendency?
I find myself very hesitant to read the second half of James Earleys but I sat and read
I find myself very drained this week that feels like for unrelated reasons But they might be related
Maybe I ought not to force myself to read these chapters if I’m not ready
Anybody else experienced this
As game designers we are always learning from the inspiration and process of others! I was joined by Tim Earley, who recently completed a successful Kickstarter for his new game - Holler, an Appalachian Apocalypse folk horror game. Thanks for watching!
Professor, poet, and creator of Holler: An Appalachian Apocalypse RPG will be here to take your questions this THURSDAY at NOON EASTERN.
About Tim:

About Holler:
Holler is a roleplaying game of adventure, rebellion, fairy tale, and gothic horror in Appalachia. It requires the Best Selling, multiple award winning Savage Worlds rules (sold separately).
In Holler, the mysterious "Big Boys" own the mines, mills, and logging operations. They rule over every aspect of their workers’ lives—subjecting them to extraordinary dangers on the job and crushing oppression outside of it.
The Big Boys have transformed the land of the Holler—rivers bubble with strange chemicals, strip-mined mountains crumble into valleys, and the air is choked with a toxic fog known as the Blight.
The flora and fauna of the Holler grow more monstrous by the day. Demons of every description lurk in the forests. Mutant cryptids haunt villages with their strange cries and appetites. Vengeful haints leer from abandoned shacks and lonely cliffs.
No one is coming to save the people of Holler. They've got to take matters into their own hard-worked hands. It'll take miners, granny women, gougers, moonshiners, bluegrass pickers, and holy rollers willing to fight and die to protect their culture, customs, and families. Folks who have the bravery to stare straight into the abyss and spit in its eye.
Holler draws deeply on Appalachian history, mythic folklore, and culture to create a dark fantasy world of apocalypse and vengeance set in gothic locales such as Corn Cob Gap, Cussfoot Fens, Ghost Ridge Mountains, Great Craggy Mountains, Faefall, Hogback Hills, Piney Dirge Plateau, Sootstone Mountains, and the Stygian Mountains.
The goal of the resistance is to build a coalition, to bring together di

Most languages seem to have a parsing lib. I used the Haskell one in the past, and it was excellent.
Is there really no Julia variant?
PS: If you are a PhD student or Postdoc or similar. Name your price ;) I would be very glad to finance a parsing library for Earley parsers. PM welcome.
Does anyone know if the rubbish collectors in the Earley area are running late today, or even operating?
Edit: Turns out the bin collectors have actually been. I just didn't hear them. My bad.
Have badly miscalculated this months budget, have not a pound to my name and I’m in overdraft. House mate is also broke, he doesn’t get paid for over a week and will be working for a few days and I don’t get paid till May 24th. We have some food in the freezer but are low on pasta, sauces, fruit, yoghurts, milk, fruit juice, ready meals and other similar things that we use a lot of for breakfasts and lunch. I’m not sure I want to contact a food bank because it’s basically a result of my bad budgeting and bad decisions that we are here. Also I’m autistic and very specific about what I will and won’t eat and I worry any typical food bank food parcel would be 95% stuff I can’t eat. But if anyone knows anywhere we can get some free food or anything. I’d appreciate it.
Have a good day everyone
Update: thanks to some very generous redditors and help from a local community service ive been able to clear my overdraft and been given some food. Just now trying to find a remaining £7 pounds to pay my tv and broadband bill. I really appreciate everyone’s support and kindness in response to this post. I’m very grateful and blessed tonight.
Further edit: thank you to all you lovely people for your kind words, compassion and financial assistance. I’m no longer in need of money as it stands. But I really deeply appreciate every person who has taken the time to read my post, respond, message me, offer suggestions and advice or sent me money. I am completely blown away by the amount of compassion and kindness I’ve witnessed tonight. Thank you all SO SO MUCH!
