🏳️‍⚧️ Auch wenn ich wenig Reichweite habe, versuche ich es einfach mal: Gibt es hier Eltern von trans* Kindern/Jugendlichen? Oder trans* Personen, die gerne ihre Erfahrungen teilen wollen? Ich stehe mit meinem Kind (15) am Anfang dieses langen Weges und suche Menschen zum Erfahrungsaustausch.

Gerne RT

GM Tip: The best magic items enable new strategies rather than just adding +1 to rolls. A cloak that lets you teleport to shadows you can see is more interesting than a +1 sword.

Posting this again because I've been getting questions: at this moment there is no licensed merch for Murderbot or Sanctuary Moon except what is on Worldbuilders Market worldbuildersmarket.com/collections/... where it's sold for charity fundraising. And they are getting a new t-shirt design soon.

Die #NieMehrCDU hat mehr Tränen um den rechtsextremen Hetzer Charlie Kirk vergossen als um ihren eigenen christlich-nächstenliebenden Parteifreund Walter Lübcke. Und verurteilt @politicalbeauty.bsky.social, die ein Denkmal für Lübcke aufgestellt haben, schärfer als den Nazi, der ihn umgebracht hat.

Nachdem CowFree mich nicht zu 100% überzeugt hatte, bin ich jetzt gespannt auf „Remilk“. Sie haben Hefepilze gentechnisch dazu gebracht, Milchproteine zu erzeugen.
Ein weiteres Israelisches Startup im Bereich Foodtech, das sich dem Problem „Milch“ angenommen hat! 🥛

You can’t afford a coal mine.

You can’t afford a gas turbine.

You can’t afford an oil rig.

Only fossil fuel states and billionaires can.

But you can afford a solar power station on your roof.

Now, ask yourself why you encounter so much anti-renewable energy propaganda.

I'm so curious to know if anyone else thinks this is as cool as I do.

Bundle of Holding is offering a horror RPG based on the Mystery Flesh Pit National Park, which is one of my favorite weird Internet creations.

Is anyone else in this part of the Venn diagram with me?

the AI story won't end with either a super intelligence enslaving humanity or some "life of abundance"-utopia. it'll end the way these things always end. the bubble will burst. the economy will tank. the tech moguls will golden-parachute onto their super yachts. normies will pick up the pieces.

The sigil was drawn in salt and ash, the candles lit at the pentagram points, the incantation declaimed.

There was a shimmer - a demon appeared.

"Curious. What ritual is this?"

"I got it from ChatGPT. I included all protections in my prompt!"

"I see," the demon said and stepped out of the sigil.
