Podcast about TTRPGs around the world. Irregular release schedule. If you are from a non-English speaking culture and in any way involved in TTRPGs, I am looking forward to your message! https://linktr.ee/worldofrpgs

A personal player handbook for a rules light game that has incentives to make such a keepsake would actually be a pretty good idea.

Exhausted after reading 35 pages of Wizard of Oz with different character voices to my kid.

You can do it! I once needed 80 applications to get a job.

Had my first dream about this podcast. Was visiting some small towns in Germany (will actually do in November) and ended up in Bucharest, where I found two zines from Romania and Bulgaria in English. Unfortunately I only remember one of them, and only that it had a really convoluted dice mechanism

Well, it's not harvested yet. The German grown tea I've had (not commercially sold) was kind of meh to be honest. But I've had English and Scottish grown tea that was rather good.

For the Spain episode of my podcast, the person I interviewed about the history was @fermoreiras.bsky.social who's also a translator of video games and pretty cool.

So outside gaming, a thing I really nerd on about is tea. The "collector in me" tries to get tea from all corners of the world, including odd places such as Hawaii or Cornwall. That's why I'm cautiously optimistic about this campaign and backed it: www.kickstarter.com/projects/gro...

Picture Monday: Relevant website for Episode 26. Yes, it's literally Russian, but it's not a Russia episode. I am really exited about what's happening there. Well, and I still need to edit Episodes 23-25...
A listing of three game offers in Russian on a gaming club website. It mentions City of Mist, Pathfinder, and Call of Cthulhu.

I've just did the first interview for Episode 26 while 23 is still in editing 🙄 But honestly, Episodes 25 and 26 had not been on my radar and totally jumped me. Also these four "open" ones are on four different continents, so very confused with languages and time zones...

Ich verstehe vor allem nicht dieses "Trachten" + "Junkfood". ???

Hilft aber nicht wenn ich nur nächsten Monat da bin...

Yeah I don't want some weird billionaire decide what I can watch (or read or play).

1-866-952-4456 to tell Netflix that in no way do you want Elon fucking Musk determining what you watch.

I just called, got through in about 15 seconds, and told them that I strongly support queer inclusion in their programming and that I will cancel my subscription if they cave.

1. Led by Elon Musk, the far-right has exploded in a campaign to get Netflix to remove shows with queer and trans characters.

If Netflix capitulates to their demands, an already strained market for LGBTQ+ animators might become even more dire.

nope, luckily a small one. That's why I wrote "meh".

good that I read up on Baudrillard this summer 🤣

So I hate nostalgia in general, including in TTRPGs (weird AD&D-obsessed old men on Twitter, looking at you), but that advert almost looked like a 1990s nostalgia video to me...
theworldofrpgs.bsky.social
At least you get recommendations that make sense. I often get stuff I would have no clue about, and in some random location, even though my CV is pretty complete.
theworldofrpgs.bsky.social
Yeah I also get a bunch of those - they either want to suggest guests (I interview players/GMs/translators/authors from different countries, doubt they have it) or want to tell me to host on YouTube.

My kid just came up with the metric that all blond children in her class are boys so they must also be a boy. But being biologically female, they are both? I then told my kid there definitely are other blond girls and female teachers at her school, so her metric is bogus, but I wasn't convincing. 😆
