Parlor games with role-play elements were part of French aristocratic culture already in the 1500s. Such evening entertainments would spread as leisure time & literacy spread, with many such game outlines in publication by the 1800s when the Prussians "invented" the masculine preserve of wargaming.

Creative solidarity means: If you're a writer, do not use AI "art" or AI "voiceover" If you're an artist, do not use AI "writing" or AI "references" If you're a streamer/actor, do not use AI for backdrops, thumbnails, etc. Never help AI steal another medium No excuses, no shortcuts, no surrender.

If you don’t get pre-game anxiety, are you really a storyteller/gm/dm

Toe pick! iykyk 🍁⛸️🏒

the only good thing about genAI is that it got me to really love seeing bad art, because I know a person put in time and effort, made themselves vulnerable by showing it to others, and is trying to improve. I value that more than anything now

We don’t use generative AI at Strange Scaffold and I can confirm that a *lot* of other studios are not—whether indie or AAA. Get outta here with this normalization bullshit.

TFW you make a semi-obscure, deep cut joke in an unrelated subculture community and some strangers on the internet get it and find it amusing.

I’m listening to the original 1985 London cast recording of Les Misérables. It’s going to be okay. “...and we’re counting our blessings!”

The real treasure was the NaNoWriMos you failed along the way…

I’m quoting the punchline, but it’s worth reading the whole thread

Saw something that @realgdt.bsky.social said the other day, and remembered I had something I started a while ago that I should finish up. I'm so tired of all this.

Is there something in this? The word "content" makes my skin crawl.

Letting @flamygrant.bsky.social play me into the weekend…

Tickled to be the 69th backer 😎 on @BackerKit Crowdfunding for Dirt City Blues! Nice.

Sometimes I make little Roman Catholic references to amuse myself. It’s lit(urgy).

Perhaps my greatest work?

I heard "there's artificial intelligence, and there's actual intelligence" and almost choked to death on this cough drop

My advice is that joy is also a form of wisdom.

Once men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them.

TFW you listened to @heedthecallpod.bsky.social and decided not to bench Ashton Jeanty on your Fantasy Football team. 🏈👍

Fantasy Fridays! 'Dark Caves' There's always a degree of uncertainty when going deep underground. Keep that lightsource fueled! #fantasyfridays #fantasy #fantasyart #dnd #dnd5e #rpg #ttrpg

As I've mentioned in my previous few posts, I'm remaking some of these fantasy class character designs I made back in 2017 (they make me cringe so hard now lol). Which would you like to see me redraw?

Stoked about this upcoming creation from @grinningrat.itch.io : www.backerkit.com/call_to_acti...

You sure about this, Google?

I’m probably due for a rewatch marathon of the Extended LOTR trilogy.

Was directed to this older, but no less sublime, piece by @conororr.bsky.social via @heedthecallpod.bsky.social ...definitely worth a read.

Had a chance to play an earlier version of this game at @breakoutcon.bsky.social and am super-stoked to see how it's evolved... time to get the tarot cards shuffling at my game table!

I'm kinda grateful to my past self for not taking a deeper dive into Weird Al's music, because it means I can enjoy the novelty of this song, that I heard for the first time today, as a kind of anthem by which to navigate my ongoing midlife crisis. Happy Tuesday.

I think a regularly scheduled TTRPG night would fix me.

Let go and let Godzilla.

Today is my birthday so It would mean a lot of y'all shared my art :) 🫶

I thought this sounded neat... and perhaps you will also think it sounds neat.

On the one hand, an industry that makes billions of dollars, provides thousands of good jobs, and produces immense cultural capital. On the other hand, an industry with a barely-functional product that has yet to turn a profit. Only someone bought and paid for would see this as a tough call.
