This is my political account. If you want to know my more political takes, some of which *will certainly* be spicy, this is where you'll find it.
I suppose I should introduce myself before people start flagging me as a bot.

This is the more political account for @6sidedgames.bsky.social.

Still getting up and running, so mind the bump.

600 words turned into 2300 somehow. AND i found a cool motif
ok i’m writing a script for a potential video essay about how I played 200+ tiny video games in 2025. I did an official count, taking out games I didn’t really finish, and the number is specifically 236 mostly indie games

I feel like this is also applicable to all companies now.
Studios lament the loss of "company men" without looking at the differences in the ways Stan Lee and Jack Kirby were treated.

You get "company men" by being good to the men who work for the company.
From Jack Kirby to Steve Gerber to Alan Moore to pretty everybody else who ever worked for DC or Marvel, "Work for Hire" is one of the biggest con jobs ever pulled.

Interesting anecdotal data.

Anyone else seen the same thing?
So I tried something different this past Saturday when boosting my game stuff:

No hashtags

Did my usual "repost" about ever hour thing to get it in front of more people as usual.

Result:

Way more engagement in the form of Likes and Reposts. Still not a lot of click through and no sales mind you.
(Trying this without any hashtags.)

Hi there! I'm a ttrpg designer looking to sell some games! I set myself a goal of 1000 sales in three months!

So far, I'm at 10! Care to help make that number bigger?

Repost, like, maybe buy!

Lots of options!

Let's see what we can do!

From what I've seen/heard of people talking about their "Metrics" artists are seeing 3x the likes & shares here compared to Twitter even with diminished followers

Folks really aren't giving bluesky a shot becisse they think "Established is better" but honey the system is rigged

Get out of the pot!
I'm begging any artists still using Twitter claiming it's integral to their work to just leave. It's been revealed the site works off a made up "credit score" from hell and punishes you for posting like a normal human being.

Abandon Twitter for good. It's time. It's been time.

Thankfully Chaos understands that if I lock him in the bathroom, it's not a punishment.

He only considers it a punishment if I lock myself in a room. There is apparently a difference in his cat brain.

Picard management tip: If you only play to your strengths you may look competent but ultimately you will stagnate. Play to your weaknesses as well. Improve with practice. There is so much more to learn.

Nothing like going to work on your 8 hour day and having it become a 12 because someone called in.

I say "Happy Holidays," because I'm not an all-encompassing asshole who thinks my celebrations are the only game in town.

Just saying. 🎄

Not including my game
Shadowrun, a good, if flawed D6 system
Ironclaw because furry "Dice leveling system"
Scion 1E because it's the most fun but busted game system
Anima because it's a great setting and really crunchy.
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.

It’s time to talk about my cat. To which you might be saying, “Chuck, I didn’t know you had a cat!” and I’d respond with, “I didn’t know I had a cat either…

RPG tip from the archive: When trying a new RPG, try to understand the intent of the rules-as-written before you start changing things up.

Hey hivemind, give me some help here.

If you were playing a ttrpg centered around college sports:
Which type of sports?
How would you want them modeled?
