A professor was lecturing to his English class: β€œIn English, a double negative forms a positive. In some languages, though, a double negative is still a negative. However, there's no language where in a double positive can form a negative.”

A voice from the back of the room piped up, β€œYeah, right.”

Always, but it's usually ambience, no lyrics

I'm so and so on Fever Swamp but you can work it into something very good, I think

There are 261 working days in 2025. If you write just 1 page a day, that’s just 250-300 wds a day, you can write 2 1/2 scripts or one novel by New Years Eve.

If you write just 2 pages a working day (600wds/day) you can write 5 scripts, 2 novels or one 150,000 word magnum opus.

Just. Keep. Writing.

Almost a force of nature, a being from a time before history and civilization, an ancient and immense poer- usually an ideal of deep concept personified.

They are not mere enemies, but a horror to behold and maybe survive. Thus if a party manages to actually defeat one, it will be legendary.

How do you decide which books to get in physical and which in digital?

Personally, I struggle with shelf space, but I still want so many books...

I think I have one thus far, so hopefully it stays like that.

But I'm not super active so maybe I'm too small a fish

Either way it'll be a waste on their part...

As my players would attest, I LOVE wierd, but it has to be good.

I'm salivating for this

sensitive and inclusive to such a degree.

This really cements the understanding that this mob mentality has gone WAAAY too far and lost even the slight traces of the stated intended founding principal.

Screw these people, damned bullies that are just looking for prey.

I'm sorry, no.

This is not acceptaable behavior. Sure, if there's no other recourse- distance yourself from bullies.

But we should stand fast against harrasment campaigns like these and I can't evem fathom the sheer irony of this happenning here of all places, and to someone who emphasizes being

Yochai is one of the best, most community-oriented persons in OSR-and-adjacent spaces. He'll do his work elsewhere. His departure isn't a loss to him, but to TTRPGs here on Bluesky.

You fucking idiots.

I think video games are easier because they require less imagination and mental effort to separate the player and GM "sides"
