So sorry to have to keep sharing this, but we need to be able to make rent this month (which is ยฃ800). My partner doesn't hear back until next month about the jobs he's applied and interviewed for unfortunately, so anything helps to make ends meet. Thank you and, again, sorry ๐Ÿ’œ

More along the lines of Adventurer's League, where you're largely being matched with and play with strangers, and it's just kinda ??? Cuz the person's business model does something similar lol

Also it goes back to how much I obsess over the need to set expectations in any sort of cooperative social gameplay setting because if you don't fucking communicate you won't get the experience you like and then you make a business out of inflicting that on others?? Brother ew

Like ??? sorry you had a bad experience because you didn't communicate expectations so boo fucking hoo being anti-D&D just purely due to it also kinda just makes you an unlikeable bitch to deal with lol grow up

Relatedly if you're hating on public play tabletop because you make hating 5e your entire personality years after the scene of public play has faded I personally think you suck as a person

It's all this doom and gloom and "oh we have no future" which I then ask, why are YOU here then? What are YOU doing to make things happen?

At some point it's going from pragmatic to just stagnation and having no interest in making the place habitable for people to actually join. What the hell are we doing?! What are we doing??

It's been almost a decade of people actively being told to go overseas "for better career prospects" and I'm beginning to suspect we just don't want our own talent in the arts ig, thoughts?

Waking up angry about people actively discouraging new blood from joining the local industry that is dying from a severe brain drain problem like ok so we all hate progress and change then??

Always love when other sites copy/paste my accidental errors in game coverage time.

Like do your own research you lazy gits

do yourself a favor folks, if you're 26 or younger, make a plan to dodge the draft. it's not making the problem about you -- the child you don't go overseas to kill will thank you for it in fact. and if it doesn't come to pass, better to have a plan and not need it than need it and not have it

This Is Your Stop by Basil Wright One day, you will arrive, but for now: This Is Your Stop.

This Is Your Stop, a Wretched & Alone solo game about public transit, is here!

For the price of an all-day pass in my city, you can ride along and try to reach your stop in time. Ignore passengers. Be nice to the driver. You definitely didn't pass that tree twice.

Screenshot of a tumblr post by theshatteredrose on feb 8, 2021: a mini comic of two parts showing gengar, a purple ghost pokรฉmon, standing in a crowd and saying, in the first square: "I can't use the same oc in numerous unrelated projects". In the second square, someone who isn't visible, from the crowd, says: "you could, if you weren't a fucking coward". On my tumblr, I wrote in tags: "reblogs"; "couldnt be me"; "plots, ships, games you name it".

I'm too bored of this to try and be clever about it anymore.

If you think that two men kissing, or two women kissing, requires any more explanation than a man kissing a woman, that is homophobia.

Someone who looks a lot like Spice, in all black standing arms outstretched holding a book (a bible) whilst police horses charge it. There's a crowd behind.

They didn't run it down & the line was held.

Outnumbered the fascists.

Police failed to break our line.

They got bundled into taxis & fucked off home.

Got a pic that goes crazy hard out of the whole equation.

Lovely Saturday, over all.

Reasons a cis women might have Y chromosomes:

- Twin brother
- Gestating a child with a Y chromosome
- Bone marrow transfusion from someone with a Y chromosome
- Being intersex (we know of XY women who have naturally conceived and given birth)
