Pilots fight in their magemechs. They stand little chance against the Entities outside of them.
Immorality pays big bucks, it seems. Nothing like striking gold in the bones of dead children.
Art has done us the disservice of making us believe the rise of fascism would at least be aesthetically and ideologically cool. Instead, it’s THIS. Oh how I wish life would imitate art instead of watching a bunch of losers hedge fund against their own atrocities.
She ran her hands through her hair, but unlike before, this wasn’t calm and collected. This was…
“Pilot, did you just return from a mission?”

The Pilot was staring at them with an intensity they’d yet to see. She was breathing in unsteady patterns, and even without any sensor readings, Twelve could tell her heartrate was heightened. Her leg was bouncing on the chair.
You should read this. It’s cool, and a little bit Gay™️ towards the end. Who knew mech pilots had problems?
…everyone? Oh, ok fair…
I love that. Half the anxiety comes from fear of rejection, so the unabashed pride to just throw your art into the world like “there ya go, do with it as you will” is so metal.
Oh I wasn’t expecting that at all haha. This is still in VERY rough shape, so please support everyone else far before me! I just wanted to lend a heart to someone doing something nice for the community!
It just occurred to me that if I made a pinned post for Death Spiral for a while that more people could find it cuz all the the DB stuff is still de-indexed on itch :'D

Can confirm, they’re a pro. Everything is beyond beautiful, and expedient. Master of the craft at 50/hr is a STEAL.
Related to this, I'm trying something a little experimental with my shop.
If you've been looking for a personal or professional logo but maybe don't have the budget for a full branding project, check this option out!
Premade logos, ready to download.

Haha I don’t make shirts but you’re so right. That would be a great piece anti-AI merch. Huh, maybe I’ll have to reach out to someone.
@moxiest.art I think I have an idea…
WE MADE IT FIRST! There is no synthesis, no process. Just mad libs, as you aptly put.
These people worship “marketing” as though the creation of the thing they’re marketing isn’t essential first. You can’t sell something that doesn’t exist. You can’t build a temple to an unborn god.
I also love their constant misunderstanding of causal origination. People like this always say stuff like “This isn’t unique to humans, I could have AI make this in a second.” Like yeah, WHERE DO YOU THINK THE AI LEARNED TO DO THAT?!
The ONLY reason the Plagiarism Machine can spit anything out?
ART COMMISSIONS OPEN
I need to save up for UKGE so if you are interested in getting some art done, my rates are $50 per hour, and as usual, I can work in a variety of styles, give examples of what you can get for your budget, work with soft/hard caps on hours, etc :)
DM me!
I personally would argue that the term and language of a “joke character” is a 1-dimensional bit manifested as the bare minimum in terms of game mechanics and effort. Because the moment you inject more than the joke, it’s not longer defined by its self-referential humor.
Starting a character with a joke and tagging them with that as you’re actively creating depth beyond the joke is no different than calling me a baby because I was born as one. I no longer am, I ceased to be the moment I grew in any capacity.
making good, solid characters that use humor as a device through which to drive tension. Conflict. Because then when they aren’t funny, when they have to break the veneer of “silly,” you see their depth. That’s just a good character. I don’t think that’s a joke character.
Ah see but that’s why I would say it’s not a joke character. I think a joke character, definitionally, is surface level for a bit. They don’t get drama because their point was meta. The name, the context, was made to make the PLAYERS laugh at the absurdity. I think what you’re doing is just
Because a character with depth that also happens to have some joke aspects is very different than a character whose entire premise is the joke and you just happen to stumble into depth afterwards.
I’m not saying you’re wrong, I’m just saying you’re operating under a definition that I don’t think most play groups are. So what would your definition be for a joke character?
Which is true, I just think that’s kinda the culturally accepted use of the phrase. The first thing that comes to mind for most players when you say “joke character” is Boing Boing, not a character whose morality is inverted within a power dynamic to subvert genre trope expectations.
a joke character.
That to me just doesn’t sound like a joke character. So I guess it’s a definition thing. Because that sounds like a great idea with lots of room for roleplay, whereas “This is Boing Boing and his personality trait is that he tries to shake penises instead of hands” is what I’d usually associate with

What does it mean for a motherboard to pray?
I say we aren’t going far enough. 3 columns, 7 columns, enough columns to only fit single words.
Anyone wanna be my sponsor? My fee is 20k USD/month and I’ll make something once a year. And no I don’t do commissions.
But all my living expenses will be considered towards your tax write offs.
Yeah but…our shareholders are happier than yours, so HA!

✨ Shameless Self Promotion Saturday ✨
✨ re-reject edition ✨
we spent the last three weeks avoiding promoting the angry stuff, and keeping it hidden on the shop, because we did not want to be remotely seen as capitalizing on people's deaths.
thank you for respecting the break
