My TTRPG hot take: We don't need a hundred new JRPG ➡️ TTRPG systems.

Never forget Whit Whitman's 10-step 12-step method for masterful game directing! Never forget to porkon cows and always remember villains needs flaws and also more flaws! Unrelated, watch out for grifters in the #ttrpgcommunity.

If ya'll ain't played "South of Midnight"... Why not?

J-Hope trying desperately not to drown after "Da Bomb."

V stopped after 2 wings and... you know what? I can respect that. He said hot/spicy food was not his thing and that he'd reached his limit. He didn't make a scene, he didn't fuss about it, he didn't feel compelled to power through anyway. Watching J-Hope and Jin suffer through was hilarious, tho 🤣

For over 4 decades, this snippet of a song has played in my head with only a vague impression that it was a gang of animated cats singing it. Just two lines: "Ali Baba, you may not know But tonight, we're gonna win!" I eventually just accepted it was some sort of fever dream, but today...

Clavicular still trying to hammer that browline straight, I see...

Me: I need something fun. Oh! I'll watch the new season of One Piece. S2E7: Get wrekt, you fkn baby.

My friends at FUG made a thing. www.fraggingunicorns.com/shop/p/fuck-... #TTRPG

Imagine being a grown ass man and getting your ass beat by GenZ/Alpha kids... (NOTE: Despite the caption, the girl/woman with the Choose Kindness Always hoodie was trying to de-escalate the situation.)

With the alpha male mythos extending all the way to sigma, now, we should go ahead and assign traits to the rest of the letters. Just get it over with. What do you suppose a kappa male is like?

I dunno, I feel like booking would be a bad idea... #scp

Adding another one from @mythworks.bsky.social to my collection. I'll try to find time to stream a run of this next year, hopefully before spring! #ttrpg #ttrpgcommunity #zines

A statue commemorating that time a dog accused a man of murdering its master, dueled the man in a Trial by Combat, and got the man to confess his crime, for which he was hanged.

Since #Eschaton by @archongames.bsky.social is my favorite board game of ever, seeing a recent YouTube review say it's probably best in genre is pretty validating. www.youtube.com/watch?v=qGRj... #BoardGames #BoardGame #DeckBuilder #DeckBuilding #StrategyGame

When the #BBEG casts Time Stop at the start of the round to cast some beefy spells and then summons a pack of nasty wraiths so you pull out your Dispel Magic scroll and roll straight Charisma checks for each spell. Dude powered up and then I just powered him back down. #TTRPG #DnD #ActualPlay

The #Shadowrun crew is in San Fran and already bribed a local go-gang. Now it's time to see what the job is. Can Popi convince Ms. Johnson that the crew is worth more than the initial offer? Starting ~7.30p ET/4.30p PT (Wed) www.twitch.tv/dndenial or www.twitch.tv/scxrlet64 #ActualPlay #TTRPG

Hey, I get to play in this! Willie Burnham is way past his prime, but he can still knock them down in this post-apocalyptic #TTRPG built on a #PbtA framework. The game really makes me think of "Remnant: From the Ashes." Stream will start at 830p ET (Thursday) Come say hi! #ActualPlay

When you have a GREAT game, but you're mad anyway: #tft #TeamFightTactics #RiotGames #LeagueOfLegends

Hey, we're back after a few weeks break with our DnD 5E #ActualPlay "Beyond the Stellar Veil." Space shenanigans abound, stop in and say hi! Tuesday, 18 November 7p-1030p ET/4p-730p PT www.twitch.tv/dndenial #TTRPG #DnD

Sebina Stiletto, played by Mournique, is a dwarf tiefling monk who specializes in Mountain Stance. She is the leader of the Stiletto gang, and has a punch first ask questions later outlook on life #ttrpg

Social media isn't the place to push nuanced discussion on hot button topics, you just piss everybody off and get piled on. Just how it do. But it's important to seek context and nuance when you can, for real conversations with real people you care about. www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVIJ...

If you got some free time tonight, we're streaming a State of the Union side mission. Tonight we'll be meeting with Ms. Johnson to see what she's got on offer. Wednesday Night (Semi-weekly) 7p ET/4p PT www.twitch.tv/dndenial or www.twitch.tv/kikiclownmen... #Shadowrun #TTRPG #ActualPlay

Faxing still exists to create a barrier to document submission for the sole purpose of increasing revenue by: A. extending fee periods (since whatever it is "can't" officially cancel until documents are submitted) B. charging late fees There is nothing—NOTHING—that will convince me otherwise.

In what world does it make sense for ANY type of corn chip to cost the same per ounce as beef jerky?! Oh, it's this one. Fuck, I hate it here.

When your feet are on the edge of a sock size range, new socks are never going to fit quite right. It's a curse that millions live with and nobody cares.

Following up on the "Steel Lynx" token from the other day, I also made a #battlemap token (in #Inkarnate) for a "Lockheed Optic-X." This is a flying surveillance drone favored by many Shadowrunners. Again, if you want it, take it and use it. #Shadowrun #ActualPlay #TTRPG #TTRPGCommunity

It's easy to say from the sidelines (I don't own a games company that will suffer by skipping events) but companies really need to skip events with even a whiff of Gen AI about them. Cause if they keep thinking they can get away with it, they will... and in a few years, you'll lose that bag anyway.

My friend in #ArcRaiders: "I hope we run into folks so I can blast em!" On contact, immediately opens fire. Me in Arc Raiders: Spams [Don't Shoot] emote. "Hey buddy, just chillin'. Want some olives?" One of us DEFINITELY won't survive an actual apocalypse event.

Did I have things I wanted to accomplish this weekend? Yes, I did. Did I just put over 24 hours into Arc Raiders instead? Stop judging me, get off my back, jeez!

Here's a #battlemap token I made (in Inkarnate) for our #Shadowrun #ActualPlay to represent a "Steel Lynx," which is a sort of wheeled mini-tank. This one is armed with rotating barrel chaingun. If it might have a place in something you are doing, absolutely take and use it. #TTRPG #TTRPGCommunity

Meet tonight's Shadowrunners for our State of the Union side hustle. We're live on Twitch tonight (Wednesday) for Session 1 of a short #Shadowrun #ActualPlay campaign, streamed simultaneously on www.twitch.tv/scxrlet64 www.twitch.tv/kikiclownmen... www.twitch.tv/dndenial 430p ET / 730p PT

How does my job expect me to focus on "work" when I got session 1 of a new TTRPG campaign tonight?

$239?! I hope it's got some amazing features!

I think my package might be out for delivery... Automated systems doing good things for our world 😒

Doing some last minute prep for session, I order pizza. They always get here faster than I anticipate (~25 min) so I go downstairs after 20, not wanting to leave them hanging at building's front door. Of course this will be the time it takes them an hour, for no reason at all. #TTRPG #dmProblems

Generic white guys referring to other generic white guys as generic white guys will never not be funny to me.

You know, it's called a defibrillator, but I've never heard anyone ay, "Back up, I gotta defibrillate this guy!"

I hate everything about it. I hate that I noticed it happening. I hate that they are doing it. I hate that Google AI is on top of every search. I hate that the AI overview had a tight summary. I hate it.

It's just gonna get worse...

Which system completely changed your perspective on what tabletop RPGs could be? #ttrpg #dnd #rpg #meme

Why no one told me about Stardew Valley?! Today, as I pet the dog I got the message, "Crash loves you" and I guess I really needed to hear that today.

Might I suggest that, instead of "Eldritch Knight," we call them: Swizards?

69 hours to go Hehe Check out Daemon Eater: An Eldritch Apocalypse TTRPG by Glenn Randall Buettner on @kickstarter.com www.kickstarter.com/projects/211...

Someone said, "At least she's an actress you can fantasize about and you know she's a virgin" and... We may be cooked, fam.

On tonight's menu, Eat the Reich, a fantastic little TTRPG where you play vampire commandos slaughtering their way through scores of knotzees to get to shitler and drain him dry. It's a fkn good time. #TTRPG #TTRPGCommunity #EatTheReich

Dear Uber Drivers, I'm sorry you have to wait til the next time I use Uber to get your rating and tip. I promise it'll be 5 stars and on the generous side, but I absolutely won't remember til I get prompted the next time I open the app. I'm trying to be better but it's just... a lot these days.

Quote with your first anime.

Did I TPK my players last night to get one out of the way before fighting mind flayers as a player in tonight's stream? Course not! Am I hoping proximity to one TPK keeps me away from another? Look, we find our fortune where we can. We're on tonight @ www.twitch.tv/dndenial #ActualPlay #TTRPG

TPK in the Death House... I guess Ravenloft will need to call some other victi—er... heroes through the mist.
