I've been running so many workshops on marketing, branding and content creation lately for my professional job, but because of it, I've been producing no content of any kind for myself and it's a very unpleasant feeling 🙃

WTF DO I WATCH NOW THAT SEVERANCE IS OVERRRRR

lmao getting fact checked irl

One of the things I think grognards misunderstand about safety tools in #TTRPG is that they're not there to ruin the vibe or story or prevent tables from exploring mature or extreme content. They're there to help set the vibe without people inadvertently messing someone's day up. 1/4

I was trying to take some time away from tech but Conservative Twitter (including Mollusk himself) is tearing itself apart over working visas this is amazing.

Fingers crossed Elon fully loses his mind during this current spiral

people really need to remember the printer gun post in times like this.

lrp i was a tech enthusiast turned tech worker...it's so real. i have developed an inherent distrust of new tech and i want to be as analogue as possible.

trying to coordinate things at work before you go on vacation has a real "cop about to retire" plot-device energy

Making everyone listen to me rant about #FFXIV fishing at the *other* PowerPoint night I have to do. @fisherfruity.bsky.social will be frequently referenced, but I'm open to suggestions on other fishing loremasters!

Out of Office is on. We made it. I can finally resume *everything* that has been progressively piling up since my last round of PTO in March 🎉

If anyone knows which episode of the #EldritchLorecast has @dailydael.bsky.social going off on a tangent about collective imagined spaces being effectively 'real', hmu - we're having a work PowerPoint party and I'm getting my revenge on a player/coworker.

"wonder what's going on over on ye olde twitter" *Americans being freaked over over planes, legislation getting drafted for cops to shoot them down, FAA trying to explain planets and stars aren't drones to congress, flat earthers being flown to the Arctic* I reiterate. This is the dumbest timeline.

If you just ignore existing state and federal laws, the cost of nuclear waste, water use, decommissioning costs, rising construction costs, building a new industry from scratch, the falling cost of renewables and the fact that Dutton’s figures are blatantly cooked, his plan is actually reasonable.

I would also like for politicians to stop doing dumb shit like this and start acting in the best interests of the voters/the country/the world so I can go back to posting photos and talking about fishing in video games instead of ranting like a radicalised socialist on a watch list.

Bold strategy for the housing minister to go on youth radio and say "actually no we want house prices to keep going up, and if you young people feel priced out of the market rn, good luck lmao". Keen to see if someone on Mr Potato's side will manage to perform an even stupider skit to avoid office.

Shoutout to fishing in video games That shit rules

Casual reminder that the need for billionaire philanthropy is a massive systemic failure of society, and regardless of how you feel about government spending, an unaccountable rogue individual should not be required, nor in a position, to control large-scale spending of public services on a whim.

Didn't have "revolution against the capitalist oligarchs" pencilled in my calendar for December after "worlds shortest stint of martial law" & "global superpower elects convicted felon president" but hey, who am I to question this timeline?

post a ffxiv meme made by you

🚨I'm seeing some climate accounts posting overpopulation stuff, so I've removed the paywall from my article on the subject: Overpopulation Is A Racist Trope.

Realising that Christmas holidays is the first actual week I've taken off work in like 9 months when my goal was to average a week off every quarter this year.

Just noticed the last BG3 announcement about the new subclasses and I'm pretty sure Larian put in the Hexblade just for me. I'm going to have way too much fun with my team of stupid glass canon warlocks.

Do not cross the picket line Amazon artificially inflates prices pre-black friday in order to have the appearance of high mark downs without losing profits No flat screen tv is worth these workers’ health and dignity

Australia’s social media ban for under-16s is now law. There’s plenty we still don’t know – video

Still looking more more Aussies and Kiwis to join the "Down Under TTRPG Designers" starter pack... ...I know you're out there #TTRPG #TTRPGStarterPacks #RPG #RPGDesign

Say what you will about Lidia Thorpe, but I will always support ripping up anything Pauline Hanson puts forward.

Watching parliaments last sitting day like my job depends on it - which it might - these social media laws are so appalling half baked it's not even funny they're guillotining it through.

You all MOCKED George Lucas and said this was boring or dumb but who’s laughing now???

"We sent an email asking for people to fill out a survey and we found our most effective marketing strategy to be direct email." ... Yeah no shit these are the people who fill out surveys that have been emailed to them.

Every single Meta ad account I'm working on rn has decided we're only allowed to use Mastercard today for whatever bizarre reason (fuck VISA I guess?) and this is the company (or, one of) we believe should be in charge of determining who can and can't use social media in Australia 🙃

Hey, Parliament -- this isn't good, either. I don't want any third party websites accessing my biometric data, which is the same thing USED AT AIRPORT PASSPORT CONTROL. www.theguardian.com/media/2024/n...

Hey man happy to be in your RPG party, but uh just letting you know that you can't edit my equipment or anything. Oh yeah for no particular reason. No no don't worry about it. Try not to get too hung up on that, don't overthink it, it's just like that

"World leaders applauding" would've, at best, been someone saying - oh yeah, that sounds good, when he brought it up awkwardly while they were standing next to each other at a photoshoot

Things that I'm sure Albo has said to a staffer after hearing the government discuss how they think Social Media and tech work: "Can you make this post go viral?" "Just call up Facebook and get them to take that down." "Can we get all those posts taken down off other people's accounts?"

how is it possible to be against the “international criminal court” without immediately questioning yourself

So! first time here, throwing some of my stuff around. Here are my pokemon sculpts based on RJ Palmer's pokemon to start!

Someone called this mass exodus from Twitter ‘the fall of the Broman Empire’ and I died laughing. 💀

#ArcaneSpoiler / #SpoilerArcane (but not really) but that last arc really should have been titled End of Arcane (or alternatively, Death & Rebirth)

Introduce yourself with your worst feedback from school: Hi I'm Chris, and I'm "a good student who could do much better if they actually applied themselves in their work"; "doesn't pay attention in class, however demonstrates great aptitude" and "[insert name] performs at a satisfactory level".

Ran Dread for the first time a few days ago and I'm still exhausted - it was fun, however the game tone quickly went from dark and tense to just 'Monty Python' in the most comical ways.

We're literally just winging it. Now "YouTube is actually okay", and we've opened the legislation to enquiry submissions but only for 24 hours so we can go back to ramming it through parliament. We still don't have a clear implementation plan, and all referenced research is anti-ban 🙃

Labor left red-faced on international student cap as Coalition sides with Greens and independents

Artists are TIRED. Day jobs eat up energy. There's always a wrestling match between insufficient time and a lack of motivation. When you do have time, you're exhausted from thinking about how you should be drawing instead of scrolling. Sound familiar? Let's talk about it:

Me looking at my calendar going "wdym I have to work tonight after I worked today after I worked last night after I worked today after I worked last night after I..." like these aren't the consequences of my own actions.

Having trouble remembering which axis is which? No problemo, just consult this handy guide!

Some fun in #Veilguard photo mode! You give me the option to hug the adorable creature companion, I'm going to take it
