Made a little vlog style video of my wandering through the PAXU expo hall (my first attempt at this format and style!) looking for solo/GMless/ general TTRPGs to stream with my chat!
I hope bsky doesn’t eat the quality but #PAXUnplugged was great this year and I met so many lovely TTRPG creators 💜

the shit that is going to happen to the people running these platforms is going to make 2025 headlines look very chill
Additionally, OpenAI argues its not liable because Raine, by using ChatGPT for self-harm, broke its terms of service

The BlueSky android app seems to constantly just lag out when I'm trying to interact with it after a short break. Does it do this for anyone else? Is there any way to fix it?

i would cry if i ever saw myself credited to this level of detail, this is great
We did something different with the credits for Demonschool. We used this format: name, title, lengthy description of what they did. Often you see credits in games where you don't know what the credited developer was actually responsible for. We wanted to give people proper, actual credit.

When I publicly pushed back on Scott Adams citing a rapist during his rapid downward spiral, the latter's community immediately pushed to have me fired. Creative Assembly responded by formally banning me from ever expressing a feminist opinion ever again.
I'm immensely sick of the figure heads of game dev companies being silent about the harassment of game devs. This is how this nonsense becomes "the norm" and it should have never been accepted as such in the first place.

this needs to hit the discussion table more broadly, i like throwing money at indie media but it is starting to rival the collective bank drain from streaming that we've been working to get away from
have any independent media started collectivizing subscriptions yet, like $20 gets you access to 2-3 sites thru a single SSO login because I think that's the next wave of the future

There are going to be prominent Democrats and mainstream media voices who insist that we have to "turn the page" and "forgive and forget" and they should all be roundly ignored, if not mercilessly mocked.
It’s crazy to think about the crimes we’re going to learn about after this regime ends.
We’re already hearing about Watergate level crimes every week. Imagine what will come out after it’s over.
We’re going to need a full accounting of all that’s been done in violation of the constitution.
