This was so much fun! Very keen to run more Triangle Agency, especially with its deliciously intriguing progression system... The game has base notes of Severence meets Pokemon (or maybe even Card Captor Sakura?), all on psychedelics (complementary). My new obsession. 🔺

Horse Girl Horse Girl is a solo journaling game where you document your physical and mental transformation into a horse.

Or there’s this one about slowly transforming into a horse at the hands of your abuser… leyline.press/collections/...

Thousand Year Old Vampire was my first, and is still my favourite. thousandyearoldvampire.com/collections/...

Yep!

I’ve recently run games of Mothership and Mythic Bastionland, and it’s been really great to stretch my GMing muscle in new and different ways. Would gladly run full campaigns of both, but for now I’ll stick to one shots of new systems. Triangle Agency next… 🔺

JK Rowling pledges to keep up fight against SNP trans policies Author vows to bankroll campaigners after Scottish government fails to pay group's legal fees in Supreme Court equality case

It cannot be made clearer.

If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

Crazy to me that everyone’s sleeping on this game. You’ll all be talking about it in a couple weeks. Can’t wait! 🦸🏻

The Silksong end screen, showing 100% completion and 84 hours, 42 minutes of playtime. And 27 seconds.

A++++ would Silksong again

The real Silksong starts here.

Absolutely fantastic game!

Eg #2: Triangle Agency’s relationship matrix.

I think about this a lot! I notice it often when I’m a player, but it’s a lot harder to spot when you’re GMing. There’s much to say about setting table expectations and even permissions (yes you CAN talk to each other PLEASE), but mechanics can do some heavy lifting. Eg Daggerheart’s tag teaming.

How can anyone not understand that we need a socialist revolution?

🥲 Been hoping for this one for a while.

every time there's political violence discourse i think about how jo cox was assassinated in broad daylight by a fascist who shouted "britain first" as he shot her, and now nine years later her party is dedicating every moment in power to placating the ideology of her murderer

The curse of the UX Writer 🥲

Everything lowercase except for the H of ‘Help’ sure is a choice!

Genuinely terrifying and extremely unpleasant to read. Horrible horrible. Big content warning for suicide and self harm.

RT if you also wish ill upon JK Rowling.

Gottem! See you all there. 😎

9. If you use Al to write something for you, it is meaningless and we'd all be better off if you had never said anything in the first place. This is the thing: Writing is meaning. The reason we write things is to express some sort of meaning, to pass along important information, to convey a human emotion or sensation. It doesn't matter whether the writing is grammatically correct, or vividly expressed. It matters that it came from you. That is the point of writing. If you ask a Chatbot to write something for you, you are being fundamentally unhuman and foundationally dishonest. I am not going to bend on this one. If it requires an Al bot for you to express something to me, you and I are probably not actually friends.

hell yeah @williamfleitch.bsky.social

Original painting: art, deliberate, soulful

AI 'exploration' of original painting: not art, ghoulish, inhuman, emperor's new clothes

Putting the Doom UI over it: art, intentional, hilarious, human, quietly profound

When companies make workers sign strict NDAs, then high ups in that company confess to using AI every day in ways that mean their data is now owned by the AI company and, it turns out, searchable on the internet?

Each time you use AI, you risk giving someone else and hackers your data...

This is how insane people sound when you tell them why A.I. is bad

This is beat for beat exactly what Section 28 did.

Oh, and you can't blame this one on Tories. This guidance was drawn up exclusively after Labour took power.

This Labour government is the single worst thing to happen to the LGBT+ community since Margaret Thatcher.

Shame on every Labour member.
