I've got something in my brain about #ttrpg players and parasocial relationships, but I'm not in the right headspace. We've all witnessed the rise in a parasocial relationship with D&D5e alone, buoyed by Critical Role and a few key others. But that pales in the shadow of Vampire: The Masquerade.

I draw things and also like things Mostly post about media I'm consuming, TTRPGs, and my cats. Gen AI sucks. #Artfight - all my attacks for Art Fight #OctoberArtChallenge - October art list doodles #2026Media - stuff I read/watched/played in 2026
Sharing this meme for everyone to save. It applies to so much.
If you're ever curious, this is how I handle roleplaying characters, only it's worse in person because I get to add comedic timing and pronounce it "hoht hwheels"
500 year old vampire attempting to order: "What is your soup du jour? Oh quit your bellyaching David, it's not that bad. Here, I will obtain one of these 'happy meals', perhaps that will quell your sniveling. Look, it comes with a 'hot wheel', it's in the shape of the motorcoaches you so adore."
Putting out the feelers for a PF themed WOL keychain, what kind of options would you like to see? #ffxiv #ffxivart #ffxivmerch

Brother, I played D&D during my lunch periods in high school and all we had was a notebook and one set of dice. You don't need the AI thing, I promise.
"I'm entitled to whatever I want whenever I want it for any reason and I don't care what satisfying these urges does to me or the world" well okay dude, seems like there's something deeper going on here, but that's just my take
Hello everyone, this is Lace, I noticed that my name has been passed around as a Gen AI artist. I am a graduate of UP CFA w/ a Bachelors in Visual Communication, & have been an illustrator and graphic designer for many years despite my visual disability (half-blind from glaucoma).
WIP I've not drawn my FFXIV character in quite a long time, and I've made some general progress skill-wise, so time for another try.

OK KO premiered 9 years ago?! Today, the show is not available to stream legally but is being kept alive by a devoted fanbase who I hear from all the time. You guys are the best. Thank you for watching the show!
There's a type of parasocial attachment that doesn't get talked about where people latch on to a game (Star Citizen and Zomboid are two great examples) and hook up their dopamine system to whether they feel the devs are or are not making the game specifically for them. Bethesda gets it a lot, too.
"I should get more basics at Uniqlo to dress more maturely" I say, then buy a T-shirt in the children's section because fat Gengar
Oof, glad I dropped this one The show felt off despite the premise sounding good, unfortunate that it devolved into just complaining about the ad industry.
[Review] There’s a difference between “being real” with your audience and calling a rant your motivational speech.
Samurai Pizza Cats! Coming to Blu-ray from gorgeously remastered film & recreated titling. The Japanese version subbed will come later. You thought another company had it? Great timing for their convention banner that isn't for Blu-rays kept this one secret.
I'm so very excited for this release, a huge deal
Memories! The science fiction anthology film presented by Katsuhiro Otomo gets a big upgrade with a 4K HDR release! This includes the film subbed along with our fantastic English dub. Coming later this year!

Post your hottest music take. Mine is New Order is better than Joy Division.
I realize the overlap of parents who use chatgpt for everything and people who see their kids as objects they acquired for the sake of appearances and don't really want to meaninfully engage with is a circle, but this is still so grim. They can't even chat with their kids on the morning school run?
