It would be a satire on the state of shitty AI games flooding the market.
15.02.2026 17:00 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0I just had the worst idea for a shitpost #TTRPG.
I won't do it because the risk of the joke not being understood is TOO high and potentially career ending.
It would be called "Another Shitty AI TTRPG" and the idea is you write a game like you're using LLMs. Except, ironically, no AI is used.
All of my clothes looked like cicada shells, made for somebody else.

Say you may $10 an hour. You'd make $15 dollars with overtime. The difference between your regular pay and overtime is $5. You'd then multiple that by all the overtime you did this year. That's your deduction.
I feel the need to mention it bothered clarifying that state laws, unions and etc. can get you over 1.5% when it makes it clear that "lol, no, only what they were legally required to pay: we still tax the rest."
14.02.2026 22:21 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0It's actually even more restrictive, but I ran out of characters. And, it only applies to income tax so you are still getting your regular employment taxes on it.
And FLSA is also not 40 uniform, so firefighters need 52. And CA law making OT over 8 hrs doesn't count.
I could go on.
Having done taxes for a loved one recently, I learned "No Tax on Overtime" meant "No tax on the % of pay you received over your regular pay...um, but only 1.5% because that's all FLSA says...and holiday pay doesn't count...and you have to be covered by FLSA so 40hrs minimum regardless of local law."

It is a scene where Rogue and Shadow were, in the fandub, joking about taking a piss at a Hot Topic. Eggman then walked in saying "WHAT ARE YOU TWO FUCKING TALKING ABOUT?" This image shows that phrase as a subtitle to play off the idea of the Zoomer, unaware of Somethinawful.com or how they used to call their members "goons" as a reference to old Mafia fiction, thinking that the Millennials are discussing the new meanings of "SA" and "Goon", which are "sexual assault" and "the act of masturbating so furiously that you lose all sense of self."
Elder Millennial Internet Dweller: I used to be a Goon
Other Elder Millennial: Oh, I always wanted to try SA but the cost was preventive.

I was thinking about it. In the comic, superheroes lie about going to space to have sex with each other and sex workers on a hidden island.
Given recent events, I was curious how they handled that.

I was exploring #Stoat and #Root as #Discord alternatives.
@oxwhyy.bsky.social was like "the idea of changing platforms is too much."
I had to tell them my tales~
Of AIM to IRC to Skype to Discord, of my time as a #SomethingAwful Goon.
It meant something different then.
I tried to check out Stoat as a #discord alternative, but I legit think their serves may have crashed because so many people are trying to do the same thing.

It's loading really slow. I want to set-up the preview page for my next KS for Petmon , the Diceless "Digimon Inspired" TRPG, but nothing is loading right.
I woke up at 7am today, pulled out my phone, and was flomuxed when I saw it in my recommendations.

hey pets, me and wife are very in need of some extra cash today.
it was a shitty day. I had a third breakdown this week so I had to go to a clinic, and we couldn't cook today. It's 6 PM and we didn't have lunch.
we need to eat today and Uber back and forth to the clinic on Wed.

Downside of live games, I just learned: having to end 30-1hr early because your laptop's battery died unexpectedly and you lose all your notes for today's session lol

06.02.2026 02:58 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0It's got to be a non-5e exclusive podcast. Like System Mastery or something. I also used to use the old Something Awful Trad Games discord Fuego ran, but one of the peeps there actively bullied me so I left. You need people who buy in on non-5e.
05.02.2026 22:31 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0That sucks ass.
My advice is that I usually just hang out in places with people cool to play games, like a discord of a trpg podcast. And I'll just post a LFG there.
The people there I already know are cool, they already like TRPGs, and only people interested apply.
Ooooh!
I get a better picture now.
By any chance, these peeps only ever play D&D before?
This is striking me as peeps who only ever played D&D and tried to run this game like it was D&D.
My guess? DM only wanted the mechanics and wasn't interested in the setting. Happens all the time. But, it can be really noticeable in games with cool settings.
