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.

People who disparage humanities and social sciences will come next for the science that they don't see as translating directly into making money.

They want a vapid and uncurious world. Don't give them an inch.

This is just the plastic straw hysteria all over again, and it's ableism at its finest: Blame disabled people instead of the corporations that are actually wrecking our environment, that way to poor widdle CEOs won't have to deal with people telling them to fucking STOP KILLING THE PLANET.

SPINE was inspired by Nabokov’s Pale Fire, which pushes the reader to play with words and from which I’ve borrowed endnotes as a mechanic.

When you play, I hope that SPINE insists upon your playing with words and hunting for secrets, although the game’s unspoken rules may signal you not to.

Israel has just arrested Greta Thunberg and many others.

It’s officially the month of exponential shifts for this guy, I’m literally working every day the last week of October.

Then, I shall be laid off! So reach out if you have a writing or consulting job that’ll need doing in November?

Email is great, DM me, etc.

still give players option to integrate their PCs more into the setting is to pregen everything except ties and let them choose these at the start, and flesh out PCs more through this.

I've done it at conventions and it didn't take too much time.

If you have other questions, I'm happy to help!

Hey, first of all, that's very exciting, thank you for letting me know! I hope you'll have a great time with the game and adventure.

If you're unable to have players make characters before you meet for your one shot, I'd go with pre-gens. I do this for conventions and it still goes well. One way to

to the left is the cover of the book, several figures in light spacewear and clear gas masks look around nervously, one of the figures holds up some manner of device. Large, looming cliffs are behind them, with an unknown figure standing above. In the distance is a ringed planet and its moon, alongside the spaceship of the crew.

Finally: AI cannot do your job, but an AI salesman can 100% convince your boss to fire you and replace you with an AI that can't do your job, and when the bubble bursts, the money-hemorrhaging "foundation models" will be shut off and we'll lose the AI that can't do your job, and you will be long gone, retrained or retired or "discouraged" and out of the labor market, and no one will do your job.

MORIAH by Urania Games A game of sacrifice and redemption.

I haven't mentioned my games in a while but if you don't have it, you can grab a copy of MORIAH here at: urania-games.itch.io/moriah

I say this because for the Folklore jam I'm planning to write a couple of new roads based on the tales of Maria Makiling and Ibong Adarna solely for use with MORIAH.

These look like mushroom my parents pick and eat BUT these are also known to be similar to really poisonous ones. There's apparently a trick to telling them apart, but if you're not experienced, I absolutely wouldn't risk it.
