I don't know who keeps doing this but you have to stop I'm begging you

tbh I think one of the reasons I just can’t forgive AI use is my first political “thing” was when I was 12 and heard a power plant was going to be built near my school that was big enough to fuck with the weather and everyone thought it was so cute when I went to a town hall to ask them not to do it

YouTube has just informed me that they’ve reviewed this video and deemed it “not suitable for all advertisers.”

Utterly devastating as someone who directly earns 0% on every video she posts. Without that 0%, I may be forced to cook and eat the family dog to survive. Whose family, I don’t yet know.

"We were promised a kid! This guy is over fifty!" - disappointed MAGA audience

A reminder that there's nothing new under the #immersive sun—and that the past is surreal:

The 1980s Czheckoslovakian interactive soap that had viewers vote by turning off the lights in their homes 📺

Not quite as miraculous as it sounds, though:

A game disc of Bloodborne. The art is the hunter standing with their back to the camera. The hole in the middle of the disc lines up with the space their butt would be so I folded my finger and put it behind the hole to fill the space

I finally found a physical copy of Bloodborne and I had to do the thing😅

Never fuck with a Game Master.

It's a really fucking good book.

Hey, mine as well! I never actually learned the rules!

jeez, we know Epstein was a scumbag, no need to make him look worse!

Still from Star Trek Voyager episode Threshold depicting two amphibious creatures with catfish barbels in a tropical environment

On 29th January 1996, "Threshold", the Star Trek: Voyager episode where Captain Janeway and Tom Paris turned into giant space newts and had babies first aired. Since it's #ThresholdDay we aim to answer a burning question: did Paris and Janeway fuck? If so, how did they fuck?

You’re So Cute When You’re Angry: A Micro-Larp So we had a course at the university called Games of the Oppressed. From the curriculum: In this three-day workshop, students will be introduced to concepts around artistic games, games meant to un…

We may have perpetrated a micro-larp about relationship dysfunction, domestic division of labour, and tablecloths. I then uploaded it to my blog. Type two fun in just ten minutes!

We are deeply saddened at the news of the passing of Magic legend Kai Budde. His achievements in the game and community go beyond what we could say in one post. Our thoughts go out to Kai's friends and family in this moment.

Sufficiently advanced public relations are indistinguishable from ethical standards.

The process of research explained. This is my jam.

Hello! Are you in the UK/Canada/Aus/NZ? Did you discover RPGs through any of the paperback-book games released in the mid-1980s (Fighting Fantasy RPG, Advanced FF, Maelstrom, Dragon Warriors, Tunnels & Trolls)? Can I ask you a couple of questions for an article? Please get in touch.

Dragonlance recruited a whole generation of young women into gaming, right alongside the work of Mercedes Lackey, Ann Rice, and Patricia McKillip.

I owe the often 50/50 gender parity at my TTRPG tables throughout junior high to a series of authors who successfully reached their audiences.

Today I learned “Norwegian Christian laws forbade citizens from conversing with and interacting with trolls, and in documents dating from 1274 to 1781, doing so would result in severe punishment” (source: Wikipedia), and I kinda think many people nowadays would be better off if this law was revived

Cover of the Hungarian RPG M.A.G.U.S.

M.A.G.U.S. avagy a Kalandorok krónikái

I think it's probably a fantasy RPG. The thing is, just because Hungarian is related to Finnish doesn't mean I can parse so much as a single sentence. I do not know what M.A.G.U.S. stands for.

Cover of Conan the Roleplaying Game, Atlantean Edition.

Conan: The Roleplaying Game

First edition of Mongoose Publishing's d20-based Conan game. Really solid work, with a great product line. I loved this back in the day.

And now I look at it and realize it's written by @sturrock.bsky.social. Really should've gotten this signed when he was in town!

Cover of the Theatrix role-playing game, with Theatrix Ironwood peeking from behind.

Theatrix

A diceless RPG from 1996 that frames the game session as like directing a movie. Behind it is the Ironwood supplement, based on Bill Willingham's erotic comic. Predictably, it is one of the least sexy RPG books I own. Found these in an Edinburgh game store in 2013.

Cover of the Swords of the Serpentine rulebook.

Swords of the Serpentine

A GUMSHOE-based fantasy role-playing game. One of these days I'll have time to read it. The book is just a gorgeous object, though.

Cover of Hunter The Reckoning 5th Edition rulebook

There's life in this old thread yet!

Hunter: The Reckoning 5E

The "5th edition" refers to the 5th edition of the Storyteller rules. There's only one previous edition of HtR. I got into a chronicle as a player and we're starting next week!

Played a board game.

Yeah, I was around roughly from the end of Fallen Empires to Champions of Kamigawa, but concluded I could have a D&D habit or a MtG habit but not both.

Depends on the velocity, really. A very fast two ounces would not go amiss.
