I do this too, including writing songs. And yeah, sometimes the result is crap.

Here's the bird's eye view of the 3d map:

Making new maps for #Masa #TTRPG, using @dungeonalchemist.com as usual. I've a little 1st person tour of the public parts of this one. Maybe i'll show the secret parts after my players finish with it. youtu.be/LTE760ed6dM

Let's put "None of the Above" on the ballet. If NotA wins, rerun the election with different candidates until we get a winner. It'll take a few years to complete an election, but we should get a decent government out of it.

Or alternatively, "if the story I can set up from your backstory conflict is good enough... there might be an epic or even legendary item at the end."

I have to say, this is #actualplay done right - 45 minutes of solid #TTRPG #DND action. And Woll's vision of immersion is impressive - especially with the budget they obviously have to pull it off. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmY-...

In #Masa #dragonbane #TTRPG session today, I expected the party to head out chasing the big bad right away, but they stayed in town shopping for most of the session. No GM plan survives contact with the players lol. They did get on the road at the end. A good session, I thought.

Que the man-baby complaining the Koreans stiffed him by giving him a crown too heavy to wear... followed by adding 50% tariffs to S. Korea.

#selfpromosaturday #ttrpg #dragonbane Running a Dragonbane one-shot online Wednesday. Still have seats left. startplaying.games/adventure/cm...

One of my favorite features in @dungeonalchemist.com is the ability to do a first person walkthrough. Here's a video walkthrough of a recent map I made: youtu.be/e8SqN4hiloQ (For my players, this is a public building, so no spoilers.)

TTRPG in which you have to create adventures and characters based on specific elements from your dreams. No die, instead you test your actions by crossing out words you prepared during a free flow stage within the game's Dream Hub. PA: If you use this, just send me a meme or a cat pic as a thanks.

Running a paid ($5) #TTRPG one-shot next Wednesday. Players needed: 3-5 VTT: roll20 VC: discord System: #dragonbane Setting: The Norey Plain (alt medieval with magic). Not open to my current players (who play-tested it). Custom pre-gen PCs. startplaying.games/adventure/cm...

Oh, I get it now. The east wing is where the First Lady has her offices. Donny is mad at Melania.

Looking forward to checking out @dungeonalchemist.com 's updated room generation, but at the moment, I only need a ford on a rural road.

The #NoKings rally in #PittsboroNC today was great. Peaceful, Joyful, and Patriotic. I was expecting 20 people walking around the old courthouse, but it was more like 1000 people assembled in front of the new courthouse.

You can definitely see in this pic that his cousin is a giraffe.

Getting ready to head out to the No Kings protest. Hope to see you there - in person if you live nearby or in spirit if you are elsewhere. America kicks kings to the curb!

I really enjoy that @dungeonalchemist.com builds an explorable 3D model, even though I use it primarily as a flat map in game. But it also makes for good visual handouts for the players.

Why did the medieval church ban extramarital sex and require married couples to use the missionary position? My guess is the priests wanted fun sex to be a sin so they could enjoy it vicariously in the confessional.

The thing is, AI is not hampered by millions of years of evolution to prevent self-awareness. Of course AI is more likely to become self-aware.

A new map made with @inkarnate.com . Welcome to Noregal on the Norey Plain. This is the base location for some upcoming #dragonbane #ttrpg one-shots.

Heinlein in Starship Troopers proposed soldiers in powered armor. Just watching a TV adaptation of Halo - same idea (I think). The reality is more dystopian. Stand by for genocidal wars conducted entirely by autonomous drones. Drones can't hold territory, but they can remove the population. Evil.

It amazes me that clueless politicians think I care enough about their filing deadlines, that that would encourage me to give them money. Losers! You should be trying to show me a reason to give you my vote. Unless you take money from the Israel lobby and then you should burn in Hell.

Yeah. When they came for me, there was no one left to speak up. SPEAK THE FUCK UP! (Now if we just had someone... anyone... to vote for.)

You talking to me?

Last century our two party system made us choose between "evil" and "weak". Last election between "evil and corrupt" and "weak and corrupt" Next election will be "evil, weak, and corrupt" vs "evil, weak, and corrupt"

We the people need to take back Congress. The first order of business needs to be impeaching DJT for violating the 14th amendment by accepting the job. Followed by impeachments for the rest of his crimes. Let get a solid 100 impeachments and convictions. Any less would understate his corruption.

I'm up for Commissions! Art generally goes for $7 for a bust shot, and $15 for a full body. And here are some previous works for reference:

I was just chatting with one of my players, @crazy360.bsky.social , on discord and was reminded by the blurb under his name that he's open for commissions. He's one of the best TTRPG designers I know and a good artist. And he's cheap. Hire him for your project. Pay him more than he asks for.

Yum!

Good morning from @altyellonatpark.org

Working on another dungeon using @dungeonalchemist.com . Really enjoying this levels update. This is for a distant future session and no where near done, but here's a little walking tour: #ttrpg #masa

Is that a Corvo-griffin? Cool idea. Part crow, part ocelot?

My tortoise shell cat, Turtle, died this week. She was 17 or 18 and the last survivor of her litter - we rescued all four of them many years ago. She had a good life and was a good companion. I'm sad. #pets

Vacuous people don’t want you to share this

Such a good explanation of tariffs, lol.

And some street level views:

Playing around with @dungeonalchemist.com new multilevel feature for my #Masa #ttrpg game tomorrow. Here are some levels. There's a basement too, but that would be a spoiler.

Real magic, lol.

I can't think of anything of his I don't like, including Moonlighting, which is where I first saw him. Yeah. I'm that old. Older actually. But without saying that particular film, I can't say what my favorite Willis film is. Sixth Sense is a close second - almost tied.

So what you can to share the word and keep your money in your wallet!

I'm not sure this counts as #selfpromosaturday, but I think I'm dropping the Naahi Naahi project in favor of a more general game system approach. Maybe Naahi Naahi will come back as a setting to use with the new system (well, it's an old system I'm going back to actually). #ttrpg

Red pandas are the real pandas. (Great pandas are actually bears - yeah. I was surprised too, bc they told us they weren't actually bears when I was a kid.)

Great idea. I really hope we'll see this movie in the next year. One of those "everyone is a bad guy" movies. Although sparkly vampires save world would be a good theme too.

I don't know... Garamond doesn't look chaotic to me. I would put Comic Sans in chaotic good. Garamond might fit in neutral evil, but I'm not committed to that. Maybe Arial in NE and Garamond in LE. Guess we can't all agree. lol

It turned out to be the lair of a Swan Maiden. Werewolves were attacking her there when the party arrived. There were some complications, but they saved her from the WWs and made a trade with her for a flaming sword she had stolen from the WWs. Fun fight and social RP. #ttrpg #dragonbane #masa
