a group of dice are falling on a green table and one of them has the number six on it Alt: a die spinning until a group of dice fall on top of it on a green table

When we think house rules we tend to think of things that apply directly to the rules of the game we are playing. But what are some rules you have about playing at your house/with folks?

Is there a story behind it?

For example I have one that players have to use a dice tray

An additional reason is I have a wodden table and alot of folks use metal dice and it tears up the wood

But the main reason is the losing of dice. It's silly but having to hold up a game for several minutes to find errant dice ended up adding up to a sizable chunk and I expect more from adults

I think it goes without saying but this "Well if you have standards you'll have to also forgo *insert other thing*" is some bullshit

Ignoring the fact that people ALSO don't want it in their government systems, it's not also, ya know, a luxury that people can choose to go elsewhere for

ANTI-CENSORSHIP

CHEAT SHEET

WHY?

On July 2025, Steam, a popular storefront to purchase games on PC, and itch.io, a storefront that sells games, comics, tools, resources and much more, have recently delisted several NSFW games, after the group Collective Shout published an open letter to payment processors such as Visa, MasterCard, PayPal, and more. As a result of this letter, payment processors have strongarmed Valve and itch.io into enforcing restrictive new TOS policies on what kind of content their platforms can host and sell.

Visa, Mastercard, Stripe and Paypal have been censoring free speech and legal business on the internet for TOO LONG. Their most recent targets are Steam and Itch.io, but they have also been pressuring websites like Pixiv, Patreon, Fansly, Onlyfans and MORE for years, applying draconian standards for what kind of adult/pornographic content platforms and their users

HOW?

can host and sell. If we as consumers and creators want to regain ground on this issue, we have to make our voice heard.

BOMBARD THEM WITH PHONE CALLS

Collective Shout, the organization that lobbied to have Steam and Itch.io change their TOS, did so with only around 1000 phone calls. Visa and MC have backed down from pressuring Onlyfans to remove adult content entirely due to public backlash. Clogging their phone lines for an extended period, over a month at the absolute least, will almost guarantee that these companies will at least have to pay attention to the backlash.


this list is not exhaustive. but some contact points for the 4 targets are:

VISA:

(US + Can): +1 (800)-847-2911

US option selection for operator: 1-1-2 or 1-1-3


MASTERCARD:

(US): +1 (800)-307-7309

US option selection for operator: 1-1-2-2-2-1 Phone (outside US): 1-636-722-7111


STRIPE:

(Headquarters): +1 (888) 963-8955 +33 805-11-19-67

Stripe complaints@stripe.com

PAYPAL:

(US): +1 (888)-221-1161 (outside US): 1-402-935-2050 Customer Service: +1 (877)-569-1116

TALKING POINTS TO HIT

-Steam and itch.io were forced by payment processors to remove several games unfairly

-This was done after a small, far-right wing group that doesn't represent the wider population made a few phone calls

-Their action is harming legitimate, legal businesses, is unfairly targetting games made by LGBTQ+ and minority groups, and overall limits artistic freedom

-It is not the payment processor's role to dictate what adults can or cannot buy with their money

-You are willing to support any politician or legislation that will put restrictions on what the company and other payment processors are able to do

TIPS

-It's ok if you stumble over words and ask the operator to repeat themself.

-Your goal is to TAKE UP TIME (and therefore, S) moreso than change minds. -You will be told to direct your complaint to an email. Don't do this, escalate the call to a supervisor. -Be polite. Do not raise your voice, swear at, or threaten any phone operators.

TRY TO HIT ALL 4 TARGETS PER DAY

This is only going to have an effect if as many people possible call EVERY DAY for

as long as possible.

THIS IS A MARATHON, NOT A RACE.

If you can, it is also a good idea to try to spread the word to organizations and groups that can either actively combat these huge companies legally, or can spread news, in a manner supportive of this movement, more effectively than your average person

examples of organizations:

ACLU Canadian Civil Liberties Association local legislators/ govt representatives

examples of spreading the news:

local newspapers special interest publications videogame streamers

Because I've had to chase down "Special" dice far too often and It is surprising how adults seem incapable of keeping their dice on the table with such regularity.

Aclowing red clawed hand saying "do we have a deal?"

We all know the phrase "Deal with the devil", but how many of us have actually done so?

In your ttrpg experience how many of us have actually made a deal with an evil (possibly demonic) entity and what was the reward and the cost?

Would you do it again?

Amazon convenes 'deep dive' internal meeting to address outages Amazon's top retail technology convened a "deep dive" meeting on Tuesday to discuss a string of recent site outages.

Amazon vibe coded their way into major outages and millions of lost orders.

Then when it was too click attracting and hilarious not to spill out into public, they're trying to retcon b/c tech brain and sunk costs.

This is funny but terrifying dark comedy to watch.

If your world has magic, Has medicine been affected by it for better or worse?

Has the action of magical healing held back scientific advancements in medicines, surgery and anatomy or perhaps it has done the opposite and allowed for better growth
