Excellent read: https://samsorensen.blot.im/in-praise-of-legwork
Agree with the thesis, but we must match the "legwork" to the campaign. Zero prep can be fine for a one-shot. The level of prep in "City State..." is unnecessary for anything other than a *long* campaign and comes with costs that will weigh down something shorter:
Costs: prep time to read & digest, GM holding and processing in-game, less flexibility to respond to player creativity. Worth it for the right game though!

"Ten Friggin Hill Cantons Wizards", by Chris Kutalik
https://hillcantons.blogspot.com/2025/10/ten-friggin-hill-cantons-wizards.html
So many good ones here. I especially like Varja of the Missing Spine, who is "lithe, flexible, and disturbingly serpentine. Her spinal column was traded for divinatory power. She reads the future in spilled tea, broken shoes, or bird-vomit."

https://alldeadgenerations.blogspot.com/2022/06/a-manifesto-for-proceduralism.html
"Proceduralism" by Gus L, "a form of rules for outside of play itself, the rules for using the rules. While mechanics define why and what is happening in a game, procedures define how it happens at the table."
"How to share the experience of your game with people you aren’t playing with or even talking to so they can replicate it? Proceduralism has an answer to this issue and one that’s been with the hobby since its inception"

"In Anglo-Saxon England, the bounty for killing an outlaw was the same as for killing a wolf. By the late Middle Ages, this had evolved into the legal principle of wolfesheed: the outlaw was a wolf, able to be hunted and killed exactly like a wolf, legally and by any means."
Found via https://initiativeone.blogspot.com/2017/07/paying-for-safe-passage-or-banditry-and.html which has more good RPG thoughts about bandits.
