Found an RPG I really want to play in as a player but I can already tell that this is a game that I’m prob gonna be a forever GM for lol

You can tell a lot about our current cultural moment by reading the TVTropes "Headscratchers" page for Jaws, where multiple entries basically ask, "Why is the shark so unusually large and aggressive?" and the replies all explain that Jaws is a movie about an unusually large and aggressive shark.

Was not expecting a card game I was obsessed with as a kid to come back this year but fuck it I guess. While I am excited for it I do also feel an intense feeling I cannot describe because it feels like this is just another example of a dead ip being dragged to the surface for nostalgia marketing

It takes an insane amount of work and uncertainty to make dreams come true

Before the Guiding Lights reached the Sea of Mirrored Night another adventurer made a dangerous deal with it’s queen… New Shattered Crown Origins! This time the wonderful @avah.bsky.social joins us as the alchemist Alyssia Meilyr! #pathfinder #actualplay #ttrpg youtu.be/TlY8b7G5A4g

male socialisation is when they hold you down and [cut footage of trans girl’s entire childhood and teen years] and after a while you stop even crying because what would be the point

“This game was targeted for harassment because it involved this person, or that person” No. Any game release that achieves any broad level of attention now will attract reactionary commentators and their harassment, because generating hatred is how they make their money. It’ll never be enough.

gta 6 costs zero dollars if you don’t want to play it

i’m gonna be rich. i’ll make an rpg marketplace and name it 4Pillars. and all i have to do is make as many people as mad at me as i possibly can. i’ll also alienate everyone in the industry i can think of. check please

@nomadnuka.bsky.social hey if discord is still down by the time of the tabletop session can we play via peak proximity chat

I love it when JRPGs do this

Republicans doing evil shit never deflates me or makes me lose hope. Democrates inability to fight back and willingness to attack anyone in the party that tries always does.

the word "aura" is derived from "auron", a character from popular playstation two game "final fantasy x", and means "embodying a state where you are cool like auron"

After a long trek across Cheliax, the Guiding Lights finally face the living storm that has been breathing down their next the entire journey. Its the season finale of Shattered Crown!! Super happy y’all can finally see this!! #pathfinder #TTRPG #actualplay #seasonfinale youtu.be/Ff0R3S3RSIs

commission for @nollyart.bsky.social !!! reallllly cute kobold i loved drawing him <3 tysm!!! [ #cyart #furryart ]

bummer that “cocksucker” is an inherently homophobic insult because it’s got a really good (i turn and look directly at the camera) mouthfeel.

I am very tired of people who create the cool stuff everyone loves dying prematurely and/or in poverty while every publisher under the sun is seemingly tripping over its own dick to figure out how to pay even *less* for the creations that pay for their yachts and country clubs

creators get better by finishing projects no project ever comes out as good as it is in your imagination but that’s ok, the next one will be better also it’s ok if projects fail, taking risks and big swings is an important part of growing as a creator

GOOD POST

Jay got sick over the weekend and forgot to post this, go yell at her about it. Or watch this episode where the party yells at her for throwing a super boss at them. Either works really (watching the episode works better) #pathfinder2E #pathfinder #actualplay #ttrpg youtu.be/RfZ4Fs68Pnk

me and the boys on the USS Abraham Lincoln eating boiled boot leather and sharing stories about the most Realistic Pussy we've ever seen

Chronic pain sucks dude my day can be going fine then suddenly I feel like that one scene in DBZ where Trunks gets blasted through the chest by Cell out of nowhere after he comes back

it goes like this - the economy is strong - no, there's a lot of money in the economy it's just going to 11 people - yeah, that means the economy is going strong - but 80% of us are struggling - but on average the economy is strong - gas prices are ten bucks and I can't afford rent - (transphobia)

Infinitely recursive topic I know, but I do love the idea of assuming negative opinions about the economy are some kind of peasant dancing mania brought about by watching too much news instead of a reaction to getting kicked in the nads every time you go to the supermarket.

Puzzle Design is hard. Go ahead: craft a puzzle that was believably put together by an advanced ancient civilization to protect untold treasures successfully for thousands of years ... ... and it has to be solvable by the average gamer in less than 5 minutes.

Shattered Crown continues as the shipwreck survivors and their new friend continue making their way through Dwarven ruins on their quest to outrun their perusers! youtu.be/-NlwlRIqOOQ

We didn't deserve this day.

You have more in common with the people of Iran than you do with anyone in this administration, any member of the technocracy, anyone who is profiting from this war, or any billionaire. When you see Iranians forming human chains outside key infrastructure sites, you should feel a sense of kinship.

I think it's bad for the President to threaten to annihilate an entire culture and i do not think you are being alarmist if you take his threats seriously and literally.

Right after they finish with trans youth, their moving on to target youth with ADHD and autism to satisfy their austerity driven eugenics project. They don't even dignify us with new talking points.

Man I really just have to go to work and act like everything is normal with all this going on huh

This is a supervillain monlogue. I will never understand how anyone can watch this man say things like “a whole civilization will die tonight” and fail to recognize evil when they see it.

Its so wild how like 80% of stories about trans women online are entirely made up rage bait for people who make posts on Facebook saying "I declare Zuckerberg is not allowed to use my data" every six months.

I keep seeing "all authors use AI, the real issue is they're being forced to be sneaky about it" headlines. Full stop No. This is a lie peddled for normalization. It's schoolyard-level pressure tactics "C'mon, all the cool kids are already doing it. We won't tell. It's fine. We're on your side."

it's really gotta be bleach. so much of the casual fashion in the show was directly inspired by trends you'd see in japan that loads of teenagers in the US/EU at the time wanted to emulate. i think there was even a designer in vogue that said bleach and samurai champloo we're big inspos for him.

I guess boycotting Harry Potter feels pretty trivial to me, because I'm an adult. if someone told me I shouldn't eat Gerber's baby food, I'd be like, that is no problem. I'm way ahead of you

"Artists peak at 30", "30 under 30", "by 30 you should" ridiculous. Arts industries capital craves young people to exploit and burn out. It doesn't want older artists thriving and guiding the young. It also doesn't want artists to exist. Stop letting cannibals tell you you only matter on a plate.

thoughts on today: 1) the protests are good, actually 2) you should go to one of you can 3) it will do you good to see how many other people also hate this guy 4) you might meet people who you can organize with 5) there are more of us than there are of them 6) we are going to win

nostalgia is remembering when you didn’t have to pay bills and attributing that feeling to mario

Next week there will be another existential boogeyman designed to discourage you from pursuing art. There will always be a mosquito in your ear trying to convince you your creativity has no value. Let this Sora situation be a lesson. Stop getting pushed around by scammers. Make art

don't forget to leave a hot dog out on the counter tonight, or baseball won't leave you any presents

death of the author is intended as a framework for literary analysis that entails disregarding paratext and the intentions of the creator in order to create an "objective" analysis of a text. it's not intended as a way to absolve yourself of guilt for financially contributing to a creator who sucks

After a long hiatus the shipwreck survivors are back as new threats emerge and new allies present themselves! Thats right we finally have a new episode of Shattered Crown out now!! #pathfinder #actualplay youtu.be/cOBvV6TlvNk

you are loved, and we will win

the thing about "separating the art from the artist" is that it comes from academic circles where they were trying to separate an artist's views from an interpretation of their work as an intellectual exercise, not as a way to give people moral carte blanche to support shitty people
