I'm not saying its shoggoth imitating their dead masters, but why take the chance?

You know how there's all these cool prop sets for horror games set in the 1920s? There needs to be digital prop sets for modern horror: text messages from victims/suspects, social media pages for cults and plot-related businesses, shady conspiracy websites, etc #TTRPG

I'm pretty sure 75% of the youtube content that gets pushed to me is entirely AI-generated. And if it was created in 2025, I would bet its more like 90%

Those of you playing cosmic horror RPGs: Do you set your adventures in the 1920s? Do you play (as many people, including Sandy Peterson, suggest) in current times? #TTRPGS

Looking at all these AI tools being used to transcribe meeting notes, and it seems very clear to me that we are going to end up with endless servers full of shit nobody will ever read.

The random spell each day thing seems a little too random for my tastes. I like my spells lifted from dusty, forbidden tomes, not spontaneously appearing lol

For a Cthulhu-esque game I think spell books are still appropriate, and artifacts definitely. I need to shake the urge to better define spells and their costs and just roll with it.

I think people are still wrapping their heads around the implications of the proliferation of them amongst teenagers and younger. I think regulation is inevitable, but right now its a free for all

Finally read the Liminal Horror rules this past weekend! Love everything but the spell stuff is kind of baking my noodle

Do cyclists get pissed if e-bike riders use bike paths?

Honestly, I'm not a fan of Icespire Peak. On its face, it seems like it would work (looks at all the choices!), but the whole job board thing feels forced and very much like a video game approach.

Back during the covid years, technology seemed like the solution to everybody's problem. Now I don't know anyone that prefers to play online. Folks still do it - for a myriad of reasons - but everybody I know craves face 2 face

I don't know which is worse: Trump not knowing that his staff leaked military secrets to a journalist, or the fact that he is CLEARLY LYING when he says he wasn't aware

The section on 'Defending yourself out of the fun' is dead nuts on. Banning counterspell is automatic for me, personally. Great point about how not-fun Shield can be

the people who told you to calm down about Roe are the same people telling you to calm down about Social Security, in case you hadn't noticed

I'm hearing and seeing more and more Canadians refusing to come to events in the US - even moreso if its Florida. Its a real thing.

Nobody needs that kind of distraction on the team. Ask the Jets how that went.

I'm with you on this. Players hate failing skill checks they didn't roll

I don't think there's a channel out there that puts out more content-rich TTRPG stuff than Sly. Always appreciate your perspective!

We’re entering dark days. But it’s important to remember that humans have lived through them before; and despite suffering and injustice, art was created, and people made love, ate good food, and told jokes. Human nature is rancid and exquisite at turns, and always has been.

Morning 'stand up' meetings are next to useless. Everybody is on mute and barely listening. I get that project stakeholders feel like its their opportunity to get project status, but if there are 30 people on the meeting, you're wasting time for 25 of them
