The Hank Green AI shit is so beyond depressing I don’t even really know what to make of it. For me this calls into question every single one of his videos from the last few years. He’s been using AI for “research” so how much of his content is outdated? Misinterpreted? Full-out hallucination?

Am I out of line for saying I find most TTRPG discourse largely unhelpful, often inflammatory, and by-and-large both issued and received in bad faith?

@felixisaacs.bsky.social ‘s WILDSEA is just unfathomably good. I’ve been running it for 46 sessions (probably about 5-10 sessions to go) and it just endlessly generates incredible, one of a kind play sessions and adventuring material. I feel like I could run it forever.
TTRPG about me! First Game: D&D 2nd or 3rd (I was very little and it was run by a family friend) Last game: Mythic Bastionland Longest game: Wildsea Favourite game: Mothership Favourite mechanics: Lancer (might be usurped by City of Mist, about to play) Favourite art: Triangle Agency
TTRPG about me First game: Dungeons & Dragons (1980 Holmes edition) Last game: Come On In (by @carrion-comfort.com ) Longest game: Legend of Five Rings Favourite game: The Between (by @jasoncordova.bsky.social ) Favourite mechanics: Carved From Brindlewood Favourite art: Symbaroum
I’m tired of pretending Shakespeare isn’t absolutely peak
Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again. #Pinks #ProudBlue
The concept of "magic systems" has done irreparable damage to fantasy fiction
1) Masks: The New Generation- Easy to pick up story driven PbTA that is an easy genre touchstone 2) Wildsea: For its imaginative world and character-forward engine 3) Mythic Bastionland: For some fantasy flavor that is way more rich and textured than 5e 4) Mothership: Cuz it’s fuckin’ awesome
If you wanted to run say, four different games that weren't Dungeons & Dragons in hopes of showing people the breadth of the TTRPG hobby, what games would you run for them? Assume that they are sort of familiar with 5E.
Ey, check it out, mack. I'm a friggin' dog. Solidarity forever, palookas, and remember: the Union makes us strong.
Over the course of the month I drew a portrait or 2(hundred) in #over/under and called them 🩸HEADSHOTS🩸 And @sean.tuesdayknightgames.com said he might put them in the Mothership app so now you can all apply gentle pressure to that situation too! lol drive.google.com/drive/folder...

Can my subconscious NOT give me back to back #over/under dreams the day after it ends and I’m really sad about it please?? Thank you!!
#over/under Might be the most breathtaking thing I’ve experienced adjacent to RPGs, even as a GM for (10ish?) years. Even better, the legendary @d20plusmodifier.bsky.social made art of my big metal Union doofus, and I met some amazing creatives. It’s incredible how talented MoSh fans are
