its been genuinely so funny that the two massive “scandals” for james talarico so far is that he follows a few onlyfans girls on socials, and that he respects trans people. sounds like a normal guy to me

I know very little about reddit since much like twitter, I tried it for like a day and then completely bounced off it. I do not have a brain that responds to social media well. But they always did come across as Insufferably Incurious types on reddit. Very circlejerk style.

Feels weird that I'm getting to the point with all the art I've received for my book that we're looking down the barrel of revamping older art rather than making art for the species.

I think there is also a certain subset of consumers who get almost upset at the fact that normal people can create.

Reddit is genuinely one of the worst, most hostile places on the entire internet to try and discuss any RPG that isn't D&D. You get a less hostile reaction to bringing up your own work on /tg/, the 4chan board where people automatically call everything "shilling," because at least you can post it

I am Embarrassed I have spent the last year or so in a weird state of RPG-related cognitive dissonance and while I can feel it starting to lift, I think I need to write a bit about it in order to fully exorcise the…

Speaking of Goodman Games, this is excellent commentary on Fascism and Nazism in the OSR & NSR community-

A collection of 4 enamel pins based on our cats Tako and Soba! The first design is a black cat crying with the words “crying for no reason” around him. The second design is a silly orange cat face with the words “one brain cell hard at work” around him. The next is a black cat curled in on itself with the words “void cat club” on top. The last is a chubby orange cat with its back leg up and tongue out with the words “oh hello” along his back.

Happy 6th Gotcha Day to our perfect little men, Tako & Soba! 🧡🖤

#TTRPG

Chapter 13, the LORE, is finally finished. It comes with fixes to previous sessions like typos and the like. This is a lot rougher than previous chapters since it's mostly just writing and writing takes a few passes to perfect. Still, I'm happy with it for now!

When someone says „Scientists do not want you to know“ you can dismiss everything from there on. Scientists want you to know. They are desperate that you know. They can’t shut up about what they found out and want you to know.

Hey if you get a DM from this account, it is not me. Seems the impersonation persists.

I’ve been on Discord since 2016 and this is not even my profile.

Ms. Wilkins, the daughter of a financial specialist in the aerospace industry (her mother) and a global consumer products executive for Gillette (her father), had lived in London and Switzerland, and for a time attended elementary school at Collège du Léman in Geneva. She is originally from the Boston suburb of Weymouth, but likes to emphasize her time living in Arkansas.
"There are just some things the limousine liberal will never understand from the coasts," she recently wrote.

As much as I bitch, I do appreciate all the help I do get from my friends like @hegamonia.bsky.social @jejevvy.bsky.social and others between playtesting, suggestions, and even helping me write some things. As this project becomes less lonely I think it becomes more doable.

In your opinion, what are the best depictions of grief, loss, and / or ghosts in media?

They can be from movies, shows, games, TTRPGs, books, or anything really

I want to create a giant list of media that gives off the same vibe as What Haunts Us for people to take inspiration from

I try to make it unerringly clear that if I'm negative about something, it's a personal viewpoint. Like you should be able to critique things, but don't use it as a cudgel against others.

Though I'm going to hate on media, TTRPG or otherwise, coming from a hateful viewpoint. Criminal is good too
