Zephyr interior spread where a Windfolk is seen prostrated before a majestic Fleeting

Zephyr interior spread where a group of Wind Clan folk are seen traversing across a canyon, overlooked by an ominous bird-like creature, and a murder of crows flying away

Zephyr interior spread where Windfolk are seen playing under the tinge of a red sunset, in a lake, toying with what seems to be lit fires on the water surface

Spread showing a Windfolk making an offering at a fungal altar, surrounded by wheatfiends

In the Zephyr #ttrpg, Windfolk traverse the back of a sentient continent to find the source of their passion & convictions, and to to fulfill sacred communal obligations.

US/UK. I'd love to be able to ship from here but it's highly unlikely :'\

The funny thing about this is that for once in my fucking life i did this well, both Nibiru and Zephyr are TERRIBLE names. "Nibiru" is a magnet for conspiracy lunatics and "Zephyr" gets constantly mixed with Cypher or turns into an SEO nightmare because of the fucking Zephyr Strike D&D spell lmaoo

OP SUCCESS!!! Managed to trim Amelia's lower right incisive, even left it the same length as the left one! It took a bit of fumbling about because she is super anxious when held but she let me in the end and now she gets some greek yoghurt as prize :)))

DODGIN SELF DESTRUCTS LIKE WOAH

...mine or Radmad's POV.

Ahhh ok that's much more clear, I think people were thinking you were stating there are ideological neutral games.

So to join the statements, you are referring to people who are basically blind to different perceptions of meaning around the dungeon, which are obvs much more overtly ideological in..

...is to bring awareness to the dimensions of meaning that he ascribes to the dungeon, in the same way I or other of my dungeon-hating colleagues could explain from our own point of view - and considering, by the way, that we all come from quite different paths of life and places on Earth.

...demographics of a creative scene. For example, because of Radmad's or mine's own background, life experience, studies, etc. we see a space of hapless violence when we see a dungeon, while most people see a seemingly uncomplicated space for playing at being adventurers. The point of his article...

...of ideology. One of the facets of becoming a "better" artist tends to be accepted as the degree to which we can become more conscious of the meanings ascribed to what we create. Usually, what happens is (and this is what Radmad talks about) that certain meanings are obscured due to the...

It is not, however, because it is a "fantasy" - here is where the issue of truth comes into play. What we disagree on hardest is that there is such a thing as an "ideologically neutral game". You can make a game while being unaware about its ideological trappings, but that doesn't make it devoid...

I think it's because we can take issue with parts of it.

On the one hand, I think it's impossible to "not be affected by them" in the absolute. What I think you do refer to is that people *can* play a game while acknowledging contradictions between personal convictions and a game's ideology.

It ain't about losing or winning, thanks for clarifying. That's a different topic then, as we can agree that there can be degrees of earnesty to art and we can judge it on terms such as that I think?

I don't assume the same qualities of art than those of propaganda, in the same way I don't talk in the same terms of art and corporate art, because yes; those involve misinformation and basically unearnest approaches to the world. But that's a different thing than conversations on truth.

You'd be disagreeing with pretty much the entirety of the humanities and arts if you are talking about truth rather than concepts like verisimilitude or speculation. I can be pedantic and also say that you'd be disagreeing with science since the Kantian shift but that'd be me being insufferable xD

Art is not concerned with truth.

Entire generations of USians had their views about the Israeli people shaped by Leon Uris "Exodus". There people who listened to Well's War of the Worlds radio broadcast literally killing themselves. This is just not serious.

There is nothing extraordinary about that claim. It is backed by the entire historical, anthro, and archeological record. If you believe art doesn't change people, well, that's basically a conversation terminating point.

BTW, nobody is saying that art is the exclusive factor in turning bad people

This isn't about psychology, it needs not citations of any kind, nor is there *any* assumption made about people in general: It's basic knowledge of social sciences.

Art reflects the values of a society and identities are fashioned in dialogue with it. Like, I think nobody disagrees about that?

Who wants to help me build itch 2 so my writer friends can actually get paid on time and NSFW stuff doesn't get shadow banned?

Wow. How original

Japan's Biggest Scammers: The Cops? When the police call you and ask for money, they probably aren't who you think they are.

You think its a nation of law and order, but recently the NPA announced that the biggest scammers in Japan were:

Some of the coolest shit I got to do in modelling. It was a pain to transport (also we use lead miniature copies), but it looked awesome

It's a common myth that people in the Middle Ages were constantly drinking alcohol due to water being unsafe.

This is a failure to really THINK about what what life was like, then, beyond "well, what did they drink instead of water?"

Because the answer is, well, they didn't drink very much?

Benzo detox kicking my ass

...elements in high society tried to reframe (see the history of the Maypole in England). This is especially important to acknowledge for designers preoccupied with their games helping to build a better world rather than add up to the regnant cultural purview.

...shitty ideas onto people, and they do that not only in the same way all art does, but GAMES have done since the times when the rules of the Roman games were intently utilized to spawn ideas of "the cruelty of the mob", or how carnival involved simulations of social upheaval that reactionary...
