5. Your Actual Play podcast would be better if the episodes were shorter. I simply will never sit through a full, unedited RPG session.

People like Shout want us to associate NSFW with the exploitative side of porn, like Girls Gone Wild or the problematic side of the adult film industry, when in reality most of it is just this shit your grandma read

I asked ChatGPT what will I be?
Will I be pretty? Will I be rich?
Here's what it said to me:

Que sera, sera
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours to see
Que sera, sera

An extremely tired 35 year old man with curly hair and an N95 mask. He has clearly spent the last week desperately preparing for two major conventions in a row.

Despite all that he is hot. Probably one of the hottest people you have ever seen. It's not even a sexual thing. He is hot in a way that makes you respect him.

My favorite by far is the dialog rule in Star Crossed.

For those that don't know, Star Crossed is a 2-player forbidden romance RPG, where you play two characters who really want to be together but have a really good reason keeping them apart.

There's a direct line from "no kink at Pride" and "no sex in movies and books unless it Serves The Plot" to payment processors feeling completely empowered to censor art globally
