It's difficult to do. I'm usually not very happy with how I do it either, even though it's something that gets lots of attention from me!

This 100%.
I know TTRPGs are a different beast, but most don't need rules that are 50-100× longer than the average board game rules.

En ce moment, on a beaucoup (BEAUCOUP) de masques FFP2 "bec de canard" 🦆 (blancs, élastiques derrière la tête)
Marque Savoy International, plutôt grands, par boîtes de 50, pas emballés individuellement.
Tu veux une boîte ? Plusieurs ? Un carton de 600 masques ? 😁

It's like telling someone with mobility issues that they are addicted to their wheelchair/mobility aid and that they should crawl or drag themselves on the ground instead.
March is #LongCovidAwarenessMonth
Despite lack of information in the media about the harm SARSCOV2 infections are doing, especially these days when most countries have reduced access to boosters significantly, SARSCOV2 hasn't become milder and #LongCovid still happens. Millions are chronically ill.
US healthcare sucks just so bad y'all. Can we do my meds and get me to doctors and an infusion this week? ~$310 gets it all done. If we do the ~$210 today and tonight, I can get my meds and do the infusion tomorrow. Would be sweet!?
Bien sûr on préférait ne plus avoir besoin d’en parler.
Mais le Covid est toujours là. Ce n’est toujours pas une maladie anodine.
Le Covid tue toujours.
Le Covid invalide toujours.
Le Covid provoque toujours le Covid long.
#LongCOVIDAwarenessMonth
OK that's my vote !
Long Covid Awareness Day is coming up (on 15th March). If you share your own LC story on here for the day, please DM it to me and I will amplify! www.longcovidawareness.life
Can't count how many times that happened to me. Babies are little trolls 😅
Ce niveau de déni de Covid est absolument incroyable.
Graphic for Long Covid Awareness Month titled “Facts about Long Covid we wish were not true: #4.” The text states that being in peak physical condition does not protect someone from Long Covid. It explainsthat professional runners, collegiate swimmers, and other athletes have been sidelined, and that formerly active people may experience post-exertional malaise, where even a short walk can trigger a debilitating crash. A teal and gray Long Covid awareness ribbon appears at the top, and a silhouette of a volleyball player appears on the left. The website longcovidcollective.org appears at the bottom.
Graphic for Long Covid Awareness Month titled “Facts about Long Covid we wish were not true: #5.” The text explains that invisible illness is often treated like an imaginary one. It notes that someone can appear healthy while experiencing severe symptoms such as crushing fatigue, neuroinflammation, and heart rate instability that are not visible from the outside but are real and disabling. A teal and gray Long Covid awareness ribbon appears at the top and theater masks appear on the left. The website longcovidcollective.org appears at the bottom.
Graphic for Long Covid Awareness Month titled “Facts about Long Covid we wish were not true: #6.” The text explains that past COVID infections do not protect someone from Long Covid. Each new infection carries a risk of developing Long Covid for the first time or worsening existing symptoms. Dice appear on the left to represent risk. A teal and gray Long Covid awareness ribbon appears at the top and the website longcovidcollective.org appears at the bottom.

I cannot stress enough how important it is that you recommend indie TTRPGs you like online. Someone on Reddit asked for a game rec, only like 3 out of 20 people said my game, but it made for a massive wave of visits to the Itch page. Word of mouth is real.

Since we're talking marketing today... I have a zine about branding coming out, but, like, here's a place the vast majority of us (including me) often just *don't do the work,* and if you want to improve results, you should do that work.
I spent 4 months trying to answer a simple question: has this book been translated into my language?
Turns out no one tracks this. Not ISBN registries. Not Amazon. Not Google. Not libraries.
So I built a tool that crosses four databases to piece it together.

Treasure:
- Holy Dice. Work as described, but only for clerics of level 8+. Lose their charge if you lose a fight or a game with them. Regain their charge upon spending one downtime turn praying and blessing them.
- Anachronistic Shades. +3 Charisma or equivalent. You WILL be noticed.

(En théorie, je sais, mais chaque année de plus me fait toujours bizarre, surtout avec le temps que j'ai sensation d'avoir "perdu" dans ma vie, entre les dépressions et les errements professionnels. Mais c'est juste moi. Et puis, élevé catho, dépasser l'âge du Christ, ça me fait drôle aussi 😅)
Pour le coup, jouer à Andor spécifiquement, plutôt que juste "Star Wars en général", ça marche. Mais c'est clair que c'est trop rare en JDR, ce genre de postulats.
Alors ça, c'est "j'étais un gamin heureux dans la campagne et puis j'ai découvert l'industrialisation au service de la guerre en me battant dans l'horreur des tranchées de 14-18".
C'est un trauma.
Lisez ce fil, svp.

Coucou tout le monde, Lana et sa famille ont besoin de nous pour réussir à obtenir de quoi finir de payer le loyer de ce mois-ci. Les conditions s'empirent comme vous le savez, merci de partagez la cagnotte et si vous pouvez donner ne serait ce qu'un petit don ce serait super !
Merci beaucoup <3
Nous on n'aura pas de retraite et eux ne profitent même pas de la leur.
Bande de misérables.
Joyeux anniversaire ! Espèce de jeune, va 😅
