This is a fantastic #TTRPG setting idea.

Public Access is coming to Kickstarter in March. We want to give this game the best possible chance, so please sign up for prelaunch and help spread the word! www.kickstarter.com/projects/gau...

I went through the thread and it's about 7 times more heated than it should be for some reason. I think there's two perspectives clashing - game text as a recipe for an author-defined experience, or game text as an ingredient in a player-defined recipe.

Speaking of pedantic Roses are red, Violets AREN'T blue. You're a bit colorblind, Aren't you?

It is genuinely baffling that while considering their "hard choices" these absolute losers never consider e) keep making bad art because it's fun and rewarding, or, dare I suggest FUCKING F) keep making bad art until it becomes less bad, and maybe even eventually good Deeply embarrassing people.

An old commission I did in 2019 that should have been coloured or used bolder linework but is fun to zoom into to look at all the characters I drew.

Loot that drops after defeating me: - loose dice - a half-filled notebook - small bag of freshly ground coffee - really good over the ear headphones - a cloud of dust and cat hair (CON save DC 14 vs. an uncontrollable coughing fit for 1 minute)

Oh I'm definitely getting this one. And I can get it in Polish? Fantastic.

Ok, time for the Fallout finale. I made a plate of Yum Yum Deviled Eggs (mine have smoked salmon in them), let's go.

There's a William Gibson quote which I didn't really understand until maybe 10 years ago. "And, for an instant, she stared directly into those soft blue eyes and knew, with an instinctive mammalian certainty, that the exceedingly rich were no longer even remotely human."

Mine looks really nice now and runs through several parks. But when I was a kid, it was basically dead and full of garbage, smelled like chemicals and sewage. Bonus points to anyone not Polish who can pronounce the name - Przemsza. 🙃

remember back when we all doodled the current thing for warmups? we could bring that back, maybe, that was fun

Every company is so terrified of becoming the next Instant Pot (a reliable product people buy only once and use happily for years, killing future sales after market saturation) that they would rather kill a product, or make constantly "improved" broken garbage you have to keep paying for forever.

Excellent thread!

Help an artist pay his bills, take a look at my shop! ✨👁️ i got prints, stickers and original art! #artsky #blueskynightmarket #art ko-fi.com/scarycircus/...

Never Another You is an album of lofi beats (not lofi bears, as I nearly typed just now) perfect for chilling out or doing creative work to Bandcamp: https://chrisbissette.bandcamp.com/album/never-another-you Itch: https://loottheroom.itch.io/never-another-you

I studied three different things and didn't finish any of them, so it's a VERY weird combo 1. Sculpture 2. History of Urbanism 3. Sociology of Organized Crime 4. Intro to Statistical Data Analysis 5. Intro to Spanish Literature

These are beautiful, go check out Pam's shop. I wish shipping to the EU was not prohibitively expensive right now (200% of the price of the item for me). 😟 I used to order so many small weird things from the US, but I can't justify the shipping costs now, unless it's a major purchase.

One reason the US is so utterly fucked now, and the reason why there are so many butthurt replies to this post is the same. That so many of you firmly believe that you, YOU specifically, are the most special and unique individual, not like other girls, and it all doesn't apply to you.

Holy shit, I just remembered I own a Pearl Jam Fan Club Christmas Single from 2001. Never played. It's 2001, so it's a "fuck George Bush" record.

I'm making vacation plans for the year, and my notes are: - Scotland in July is Full Of Bugs - you need an Electronic Travel Authorisation to enter the UK now - Hackney is kinda hipster these days? - eclipse in Iceland sounds amazing BUT "75% chance of full cloud cover" doesn't and also EXPENSIVE af

I felt like making some art last night/today and could have made something beautiful and/or meaningful but I made this instead. It's a Barbie Yaga Malibu Dream Hut. No regrets. Can't defeat fascism without joy.

I just bought a record player as a new year gift for myself. It will get here on Monday or Tuesday and I'm super excited. Anyone got good recommendations for albums that are REALLY worth getting on vinyl? Especially older or more niche stuff, I don't need to be told to get Dark Side of the Moon. 😉

roll up roll up come get your zines, all shapes and sizes. Zines for ants, zines for goblins, zines for world building, zines for adventures! all made by yours truly! What are you waiting for?! molomoot.itch.io

no new pictures. where are you at. mentally.

Okay, I've been putting it off for a while, but this made me pull the trigger finally. I just transferred all my playlists to YTMusic and cancelled Spotify subscription. I have YT Premium anyway, and that includes Music. It seems that the artist payouts for Premium subscribers are decent?

I ran D&D for a while before I got to play it. My first session ever was me running a homebrew adventure for a group of noobs in 2017 (campaign is still going). My first character was a gnome illusionist who stole a wizard's spellbook. I played her a few times in an AL game, around late 2018?

Lukewarm take - the only things measured by tablespoons should be actual liquids (like oil or vinegar) or something powdery/granular (flour, sugar, ground spices). Measuring butter by tablespoons or fresh spinach by cups is just bone stupid. Get a grip, Americans.

Oh god, I just realized that Trump probably thinks Greenland is absolutely fucking MASSIVE and that's one of the reasons he wants it.

I had a fantastic time playing Blades '68 last year, I'm definitely getting this!

The more experience I have, and the more I hear about how "doing business" works in various industries, the more I'm convinced that in EVERY SINGLE field the Important People making Important Decisions have the same level of common sense, expertise and intelligence as a concussed pigeon.

Introduce yourself as what almost killed you: Hi, I'm training wheels on an out of control bike, which - thanks to the training wheels - went all the way to the bottom of the hill and propelled me headfirst into a metal fence!

Pratchett for sure, but I can't decide between Night Watch and Hogfather

Hell yeah

It's like a mix of a PS2 era video game and an early episode of Stargate. What happened? Did someone steal those $500 million and they actually had to shoot it for $50K? Did the entire crew unexpectedly go blind? Did they accidentally release some early test shoot instead of the final version?

I feel like in Poland we get shafted buying electronics (a PC is 20% more expensive than in the US), but we're doing pretty well with appliances. My shitty dishwasher cost $320 8 years ago, I paid $55 to fix it recently, but it's still working. If I had to buy a new one, it would be $500 tops.

A 2-player duel game. Each player gets a set of Scrabble tiles. Turns are timed. Each turn is another escalation of the conflict between the characters. Build a word from available tiles to describe your tactic for this moment. The player with the higher Scrabble score for their word wins the round.

On the last day of the year I finished my game of Ex Novo (full map tomorrow), learned to cook aloo keema matar (ridiculously delicious and easy to make!) and I'm in the middle of the LotR marathon. It's a good day. Happy New Year, everyone!

Ok, let’s have it. What the hell happened in 2025? What did I play? And does anyone care? 2025 Wrapped: A Deeply Weird Time To Be On YouTube youtu.be/0J-iCg3WmR0

I told Frank Turner a frankly terrible story about an idiot who, with full earnestness and no shame at all, complained that a family tree app got confused about all the incest in his family. I hope he doesn't remember, we were both drunk.

I made the mistake of visiting r/osr and found a bunch of dudes arguing which 45-25yo game they should recommend as their first game to a random teenager who expressed a vague interest on TTRPGs, and who they know nothing else about. Just deeply unserious people.

I recently read a book where the author borrowed a few very modern or recognizable phrases for a dark fantasy story and it was like nails on a chalkboard. There was "a falling star meets a rising ape" (rephrased Pratchett), "we are stardust" (Sagan) and "test environment" in the modern IT sense.

I was just told that my parents have never seen Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World. This is an emergency, all other Christmas plans are cancelled, oceans are now battlefields.

10 TTRPGs I want to play/run in 2026! The Between Mythic Bastionland Wanderhome Mothership Tacklebox Koriko City of Winter Wreck This Deck Public Access Voidlight Mythic Bastionland is definitely happening early next year, and a couple are solo games, so they will be easy to do!

I wanted to get myself a gift for Christmas and I started looking for a few shows/movies which I'd like to own physically on Blu-ray. I looked for Andor, and Scavenger's Reign. Nope, only bootlegs out of Hong Kong available on eBay. I can skip the middle-man and sail under the black flag myself.

I keep seeing people reposting this as a great review and I'm just baffled. This reads like a student writing a disgruntled review of his professor's favorite (deeply problematic) book just to deliver an edgy fuck you. It's rambling. It's too interested in honing a stinging insult to be coherent.

I read this whole thread this morning and now I have a half-formed idea of a TTRPG based on Mary Shelley, Lord Byron and friends stuck in a house in Geneva on a stormy night, telling ghost stories and being messy romantic bitches.
