God damn it holidays, why are you always a fucking blue ball nightmare for running TTRPG sessions? ALSO WHY DO THEY ALWAYS HARD RESET MY WORLDBUILDING BRAIN. NOT IN A GOOD WAY.

Morale at paypros call centers is in the toilet right now. It’s not just normal Black Friday stress, they’re being pounded. Corporate is pressuring bosses to end the paypros call campaigns. Source familiar w/ internals at MC stressed that folks should stand their ground but be kind to agents (1)

Question for the GMs, writers, and worldbuilders out there; Since Wake Up Dead Man has just come out (and fucking slapped), let's go with a fitting question- What is your favorite mystery to appear in your setting? #TTRPG

What a great headline

Question for the GMs, writers, and worldbuilders out there; What is your favorite conditional effect that you have made for your setting? Could be tied to a specific item, place, person, but no matter what it has to follow the idea of "If X happens, then Y will happen." #TTRPG

Guys, as a ex call center employee, this is fucking DESPERATION BEHAVIOR. Pizza and ice cream once may be an entire year's planned discretionary budget for a team, they do NOT value them enough to provide common comfort. If their doing this? Their not just scared, their TERRIFIED.

Spoke with a source who told me the call volume is so high, a call center for both Mastercard & Visa is bringing out pizza and ice cream so agents don’t quite amid the rush. Long waits are causing dropped calls. What you’re doing is working. Call MC & Visa.

#SaveSpeech The call campaign is having an effect! The pressure right now is integral, if you are making calls, PLEASE KEEP CALLING. If you havent called yet or took a break, now is a GREAT time to hop on and add to the pressure!

The enshittification of YouTube is unending, infuriating, and more than just a lil bit depressing.

I am, no joke, literally always saying this, but Dragon Age: Origins. It kicked off the DA series and has incredible story and amazing characters, but old graphics, stability issues and outdated gameplay mechanics make it nigh inaccessible to new players.

What should you do if you're addicted to seaweed? Sea kelp.

Bluesky is muting myself and @boramart.bsky.social for speaking on Goran being suspended. This shit is absurd. Fuck Bluesky.

In honor of this, please go drop some lore on the OP post on what keeps your worlds people BUSY AS FUCK. Are your elves always making art to a frantic pace? Dwarves banging on rocks all day got no time for nonsense? Don't respond here, go chat up Dicefunctional.

"What keeps the people of your world BUSY AS FUCK?"

Fair enough. How about this one: Are there any natural landmarks in your world that people are still trying to conquer? For example, reaching the North Pole, climbing Mount Everest, diving the Challenger Deep

Apologies for not having a worldbuilding question for y'all today, I am BUSY AS FUCK

In a simialr vein Often times you'll have pcs that do strange things and npcs won't react to it, when really they should Their actions and behaviors are not in a vacuum, if one of them runs around screaming naked covered in jello People need to react in an appropriate fashion

Tip for the GMs, writers, and worldbuilders out there; Strange events are bound to happen in virtually every setting, but the biggest trick with those events is to never have a clear answer as to *why* it's happened. My favorite example of that is the Green Rain in Stardew Valley. 🧵 #TTRPG

Question for the GMs, writers, and worldbuilders out there; What is a negative cultural trait or norm, ala toxic masculinity or forms of bigotry ,that appears in your setting? #TTRPG

Power battlers & Hoarders would be the first one to come to mind In my world pokemon are not just means to fight but partners and friends While of course there are "Professional" battlers hence the gym and the league it's still done with mutual respect and team work Those that go off the deep end

You know, I really enjoy doing the worldbuilding threads, but I do have concerns that my questions won't be good enough to get people's minds going. Additionally, figuring out a question every day? Not easy.

#TTRPGQuestion #ttrpg Today is my BIRTHDAY! WOOO Which has me thinking are there any special traditions that exist either in game or out of it at your ttrpg tables be it certain regions traditions or ones you have for players at your table Let me know in the comments, share this round & follow

Goes without saying but yeah yall, dont watch it, don't pirate it don't engage with it. This same shit happened with that god awful Velma show, people watched it to shit on it and they made more Just let the fucking thing die in the crib and give up the series Fuck the Terf Queen

hello fellow artists. google has fallen. pinterest/duckduckgo AI filters don't work. do not despair; here is a list i made of places to find reference images without having to sift through piles of worthless garbage: doodlemancy.dreamwidth.org/20757.html 🚯 #NoAI #HumanArtists #ArtistsOnBluesky

Question for the GMs, writers, and worldbuilders out there; Is there any interaction between religion and law / governments in your setting? Are there theocratic laws present, or is it strictly ""reality*"" based? #TTRPG

One of the hardest things to do in fantasy settings is cope with how "religion is real, and it shoots lasers" would do to societies both religious and not. Are theocracies more likely? How do they work? Novelists fumble this ball more often than not, and it's worse in a TTRPG! But yes, I try.

It's the Friday before Thanksgiving and we're celebrating the weekend with some more Peak! Some of us will be trying to do some achievement hunting in an hour. Tune in two twitch.tv/dicefunctional and enjoy the chaos!

Seems this person is already blocking me and on several of my block lists but yeah yall best to block them and maybe report cause they are absolutely weaponizing and mishandling the block list system for malicious purposes

Hey @bsky.app, @safety.bsky.app, and @support.bsky.team, could I get pulled from the lists that this @msmangajojo.bsky.social nutter keeps putting me onto? I think it's pretty obvious that I don't fit into every single one of these lists, and that they're just a troll trying to harass.

Oh they are so not prepared for what's coming, they don't even comprehend just how over their nonsense everyone is. This grift has ended and the only ones who don't know it yet are the grifters

ARTISTS! You can DISABLE this feature! Protect yourself and don't assume that you're safe if you're an sfw artist!

Question for the GMs, writers, and worldbuilders out there; How are criminals handled by the authorities in your setting? Does it vary, is it a blanket punishment, is corruption (e.g, bribing a judge) a concern? #TTRPG

"Oh kabouter of the woods, lend us your assistance!" "He fucking killed his wife." "SHIT."

it's amazing how being woken up and then kept awake by your upstairs neighbors' kid throwing a tantrum for a half hour plus can reinforce the personal choice to get a vasectomy

My typical response to "LLMs are inevitable and here to stay" is "they don't have to be" 😑😑😑

The DM has stepped away from the bluesky! Quick, what mischief are you getting up to in his absence? I'm declaring myself the DM now and the players have leveled up to eleventy billion 💜Becca

Question for the GMs, writers, and worldbuilders out there; What event which has occurred in your setting has had the largest, and most notable impact? Was it an assassination, a revolution, the founding of a city, a specific accomplishment? #TTRPG

Okami time in one hour! Conor continues his first playthrough at twitch.tv/dicefunctional at 6pm CT!

I am in hell. I'm fasting today and mY BOSS HAS JUST WALKED IN WITH WHAT SMELLS LIKE THE MOST DELICIOUS BURGER EVER. HELP.

PSA: me not commenting on something does not mean I am "complicit." First of all, you need to log off and touch grass. Secondly we are total strangers so call your therapist. Thirdly there are 1,000 things happening every day and I am busy. Finally what exactly do you want me to do about it?
