Towel Day
2023-05-25
May 25th is known as “Towel Day” and celebrates the work of Douglas Adams. Fans carry around a towel due to a passage in The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy (and an earlier reference in the preceding radio series) that praises the versatility of towels for interstellar hitchhikers. May 25th doesn’t have any particular meaning in the fandom (FYI, the anniversary of the first radio broadcast is March 8th), the anniversary of the death of Douglas Adams is a few weeks earlier and it took time to set up the first Towel Day.

Dungeons & Dragons

When do we play?

Wednesdays, 7-9pm
at Comic Quest (http://comicquest.org/)

How does this work?

Hello! We play D&D 5e on Wednesday nights, 7-9 pm, in-person at Comic Quest in Lake Forest. If you are looking to join one of CQ’s Wednesday night D&D 5e groups, here’s what you need to know.
First, join our Discord Server, which is the primary way that we organize and discuss regularly scheduled D&D groups and events. ** Once there, please look at Start Here for general information. Link to our Discord server: https://discord.gg/vj2xcfD
No experience with D&D is required, but different tables and DMs may have preferences. If you are interested in learning how to play there are “learn to play” sessions approximately once a month.
Our games are frequently full. Whether there is room at any given table changes week to week, so you have to post a message on the channel of any table you think you might be interested in to see if there are currently openings, as priority goes to regularly attending players. Some tables have PINNED information about their campaigns (click on the push-pin looking icon on the top ribbon of each campaign). Also, we often run a 1-shot table which is open to new players.

What do I need to play?
Please check in with the DM of the table/game you are joining for these details, but some helpful items:

A character sheet (either your own or the pre-generated)
A writing utensil (Pencil, Pen)
Appropriate dice for your character
Appropriate source material for your character (basic book, Players Handbook, ability cards, whatever floats your boat)
A miniature (optional, but helpful)

We also have a Discord server: https://discord.gg/vj2xcfD](https://discord.gg/vj2xcfD?fbclid=IwAR3KLXW32PY__0KkFJjOwkw0HKpYYQMb-Cgr5HUSvDvXbl-SMZOmS0uaKXo)

Book Club:
Each month we select a notable graphic novel for the book club. It is 25% Off to everyone all month. At the end of the month we meet to discuss.
This month’s selection is
Nice House on the Lake
James Tynion IV (Author), Alvaro Martinez Bueno (Illustrator)
Eisner Award Winner 2022, Best New Series
Everyone who was invited to the house knows Walter—well, they know him a little, anyway. Some met him in childhood; some met him months ago. And Walter’s always been a little…off.
But after the hardest year of their lives, nobody was going to turn down Walter’s invitation to an astonishingly beautiful house in the woods, overlooking an enormous sylvan lake. It’s beautiful, it’s opulent, it’s private—so a week of putting up with Walter’s weird little schemes and nicknames in exchange for the vacation of a lifetime? Why not?
All of them were at that moment in their lives when they could feel themselves pulling away from their other friends; wouldn’t a chance to reconnect be…nice? In The Nice House on the Lake, the overriding anxieties of the 21st century get a terrifying new face—and it might just be the face of the person you once trusted most.
