"You're a machine. How is this complicated for you?" He asked. "What," she answered holding back her tears, "you think I created my programing? You think I wanted to be built to look like this? To be an object and to want to be touched only to hate the feel of human skin. I never wanted this!"
The thing about being "picked on" because you are perceived as weird, see, is that it is not what most people think. You are lucky, really, because those people are drawn to you for reasons they don't understand, they don't know how to manage what they feel and act out. Being shunned, is different.
I didn’t. But i used to say, “I’m divisive. People seem to either really like me, or really not.” But i didn’t know why. Over many decades, a few psych degrees, and a lot of being “othered” i was diagnosed #AuDHD at about 45. For an average person, i’m very weird. For an AuDHD? Super normal.
Being weird or even considered weird has never brought me joy. I suppose it should. I know it does for many people. But, I have been in a straight jacket, in solitary confinement, in a psychiatric ward. It was not fun. I was sent to the principal in second grade, so maybe then.
Gail Simone@gailsimone.bsky.social · yesterdayQUESTION OF THE DAY: This sounds like a joke question, but it isn’t. If it doesn’t apply to you, fine. But it’s a serious question with different levels of meaning. And I am genuinely curious. When did you first realize you were weird?
I don't play half the games I own half as often as I would like, and I purchase less than half games I like half as often as I should.
Share your favorite example of nonlinear storytelling in comics — how was it done right?

What’s a piece of advice about writing/drawing comics you ignored at first… but now swear by?

The sadness is not in that Republican politicians have a strong belief that their voters are stupid. It is in the fact that they are not wrong.
So, I'm okay. The elk, not so much. 6:10 this morning. Ill be resting for a couple of days.
I'm gonna start copying @youremceekayvee.bsky.social "This post will never see 69 likes" 🤣🤣🤣
DH_Austin@dhaustin.bsky.social · 2w agoSometimes, sometimes I miss 19th century novels "Chapter 14, where Mona and Roger discover William's plan to force the restaurant to close before the Duke arrives and Tabitha becomes engaged to the young Donald."
Would anyone be interested in me sharing WIPs of my written projects? I know art is flashier, but all of my OCs are from written projects. I usually don't share my writing WIPs because I don't think they're as interesting as seeing my OCs as artworks...
The Sorcery Grand Contest in Prato is over, and the players asked for some amazingly cool prompts and alters while I was there.

When anyone asks, "Why design games?" The answer may simply be that in designing a game we express what it means to be who we are.
🍁 Levi Kornelsen@levikornelsen.bsky.social · 2w agoChugging my way towards a playtestable Geomantic-but-it's-minis-now, I now have a collection of notes that will probably work and is... uh. Too complicated, unless you're an old school wargamer. Gotta boil it down. Or make a VERY sexy reference sheet. Probably both.
I’ve listed three books on Vinted today and somehow sold all three already. This is unheard of. Books never usually shift this quickly!
Making Belgian Waffles this morning. Two for me, one incomplete one for the dog.
🪄 “What If?” Workshop Ever daydreamed a weird AU or crossover for your own characters? Drop it here. Bonus points for drawing it out. 🪐🖋️
So, SO many times. Heck, I'm doing a crossover RIGHT now. I'm using my CURRENT strip as a way of dropping my first character into my UPCOMING strip, set in an AU. LOL.
Had a conversation with 37yo offspring this morning about #TropeRPG and neurodivergence and game design and we bounced ideas off each other about the need to show our processes to others and how that comes across as appearing to show that "I'm smarter than you, you just don't know it".
This is the newest, and admittedly weirdest, addition to the Rocket Patrol of Planet Tomorrow. She claims her name is Ty'ra McQueen, strange humanoid from another galaxy. She joined the Rocket Patrol to hunt down a runaway villain or possibly boyfriend Art by @findingdeefish.bsky.social

The whole professional GM thing is fascinating to me. I think I get the appeal, and obviously there is a market. But, I don't think I would ever do it. I don't think that GM or DM - ing is sacred or any such nonsense. I just don't think I'd like the added pressure. Play anyway you like.
