I propose we see how far a tebuchet can yeet this fucker

So what you are saying is the Despair Archdragon is basically the Angler from the Magnus Archives. Cool. Cool cool cool cool cool. #Pathfinder

Well. FB’s algorithm showed me a video of someone who professes that the way to run RPG combat is that you are 10 seconds to declare your action, otherwise you automatically take a Dodge action (or whatever). You do you, but I can’t think of a house rule that would make me leave a table faster.

I've got an idea for a Promethean The Created road trip story about a bunch Frankensteins in a car made from the cannibalized parts from other cars making their way across Route 66 to California where they hope to find a better life for themselves. Takes place in 1967 during the summer of love

FINALLY!

That's a hobgoblin

Reposting with ALT because this kind of phenomenal disdain and disrespect from within the industry literally against two of their own titles and the designer who made them is important to recognize.

This is your perennial reminder that @dimension20.bsky.social needs to play Changeling: the Lost.

Hello, yes, I wrote for one of these books (and the core for The World Below) Apparently, my work here is "the best thing I've ever submitted." Check the crowdfunding out, if you can!

I bribe my players with little treats (XP, a little boost to any resource they can spend in game - Luck, Willpower, etc.) if they write fiction, draw pictures, make playlists, or otherwise engage with the game between sessions. I can't recommend it enough. This is delicious tribute.

Hey science blogging folks? Those AI generated images on your article look ridiculous and undermine your credibility (and all of ours).

Not what I usually mean when I say say this, but an important one nonetheless. YEET.

Sometimes we have to pretend the world isn’t as broken as it is so our children have a chance to live in a world where they don’t have to. That doesn’t mean we ignore it. It doesn’t mean we hide the truth from them. But does mean we let optimism shine in spite of everything.

Oh, I feel that in my bones. Change is not something that I’m good at. But this right here is the reason that change is coming.

Technofeudalism masquerading as liberation. It is hard to get more on the nose with a mashup of cyberpunk and Orwell than the claim that a subscription will set you free.

A good 🧵, and also why #Scion2E took up a firm position against using Campbell to plot out mythic narratives.

Once again. There is a Florence + The Machine song for every RPG.

@erismothslut.bsky.social: There is no place on God's heaven or Earth for filth like you. Me: I don't know if God knows about the Hedge. @xeans.bsky.social: I don't think he does.

It's really not fair that it took me a solid week to clean up my first Standing 10 conspiracy, and @enddaysengine.bsky.social turns one in that's so clean that I was able to complete my first dev pass over the course of drinking a couple of pints on a Friday night.

This is what I’m talking about. If we continue down this path we will all be digging in the mines until that can be automated too. #AI #FuckAI

Someone at the WSJ forgets what happened the last time society elite commented on public diet. The recommendation to try and eat cake did not go over well.

Also doable with Forsaken, just switch it to “This story is true…”

I wanna run a Changeling The Lost game so I can start off each session with, "Once upon a time..." and tell a little bit of a story, progressing it with each session. Then over time the story I'm telling and the story I'm telling with my players will start to merge

I actually can’t come up with a good snarky response to this, that’s how much psychic damage it caused me

one thing I find ridiculous is that people claim to find AI so useful for "idea generation", when I and every other remotely creative person I know has more incredible ideas than they can complete in a few lifetimes. If you need AI for ideas, no you don't -- you need to be more creative.

Just left my MLA a message on her phone line, and if I dont hear back I intend to send an email. We CANNOT allow vile individuals like MLA Armstrong to define this tragedy. This shooting is horrendous, and I refuse to allow some hateful bigot to try and co-opt it into her “woke mind virus” campaign

Let it be known Tara Armstrong was elected as a conservative, then while in office left the party to go start a far-right party of her own, which promptly fell apart, and she’s now sitting as an independent, acting entirely on her own cruelty. You can find your MLA by postal code below:

IDK what this "Valentine's Day" you speak of is. Clearly this week's holiday is Friday the 13th.

Also, if you are appalled by the potential of HP Magic or D&D, your best bet isn't to demand answers from random designers on social media—who can be fired for commenting—it's to send PHYSICAL LETTERS and make actual PHONE CALLS to Hasbro's corporate headquarters, denouncing the entire partnership.

Yes! But I’m doing it for Chronicles because that’s the cut of my jib. Vampire the Requiem: Wicked Game, Chris Issac Werewolf the Forsaken: Wolves Without Teeth, Of Monsters and Men Mage the Awakening: All Along The Watchtower, Jimmy Hendrix Promethean the Created: Redemption Day, Sheryl Crow

It’s certainly one of my favoured plots when I’m running Scion.

"you are gatekeeping art" = "I can't make money and fame off of something that I perceive as easy and fun"

Lord have mercy, PLEASE don't call what real human artists and creatives do "artist generated" jesus fuck.

Ah yes. The power of a nerd who refuses to let go of a grudge, even in face of all sense and reason.

a speculative instrument that funds CSA and terrorism

Calling it now, some company at some point soon(ish) will deny ever having used Gen-AI etc

weirdly the answer never seems to be "eliminate poverty"

Me doing Curseborne things: “Oh. Right. Sorcerers.”

I look forward to the day I am no longer so burnt out by 7pm that I’m basically non-functional. Not there yet. But it is coming.

I don’t know why, but “play to find out” has been living rent free in my head for like the last week. Such a good line.

Apparently I need to make more Mummy: the Curse content.

As Black History Month begins, I want to remind my fellow white folks: the distress, confusion, and anger you feel over the recent ICE shootings of white Americans? That's been part of the Black lived experience in the US (and Canada) from day one. This February, shut up, listen, and support.

Paint night date night with my wife last night. A rare traditional piece. It was quite fun!

I have learned far too much about how InDesign and OneDrive hate each other today. This was not the way I wanted to learn that my desktop automatically syncs to OneDrive, but InDesign is at least able to save again for one last project. Then I’m learning Affinity.

Five classes you took in college/uni: Early History of Alchemy Genetic Engineering History of Espionage Islamic Gunpower Empires Ghost in the Machine

Fucking THANK YOU.

This is gonna sound sappy but I get sappy about drawing. Everyone who draws is somewhere on the same path. Some are further along in some ways than others but no one is where they will be tomorrow with one more day of practice. IMO being on the path is better than not being on the path.

This is the way. It’s a long road. I’m no where near done either, but the rewards are rich. Keep it up and reap them!
