The Alexandrian is a treasure trove of information, the article series on Node-Based Scenario Design and Advanced Node-Based Design have really helped me think about how to structure my games, and the series on Jacquaying the Dungeon has made my dungeons less boring.

ars lundi is a game designer and creator of the legendary West Marches style of play.
Goblin Punch is the home of the Goblin Laws of Gaming, and great creatures like the False Hydra.
The Monsters Know What They’re Doing is an exploration of monster tactics. While written for fifth edition D&D, the Why These Tactics? page is fairly widely applicable.

Dungeon Scrawl is a simple browser-based mapping tool. I often use this to draw out the layout of a building, then export an image and continue editing it in GIMP.
donjon has a huge number of generators, for all sorts of things.

Matthew Colville‘s Running the Game series has been a great help to me, even though I’ve never run D&D. I particularly enjoyed the video on roleplaying.
Modern History TV is about the world of medieval England, and what it was really like.
Questing Beast reviews a lot of great OSR books.
Seth Skorkowsky reviews a lot of scenarios, makes great system review/overviews (like this great multi-part Call of Cthulhu intro).
