Hey everybody, I hate to ask, but I’m putting out my hat if anyone can help. I haven’t talked about it because I didn’t want to make it a big deal but two weeks ago I had to make an emergency room visit. With the big unexpected expense, start of the month payments I’ve hit a negative balance hard

LMAOOOOO

A bunch of comedians tried to make up for their participation in the Riyadh comedy festival by donating their pay to Human Rights Watch and Human rights Watch was like “nah bitch we don’t want your dirty blood money” 😂😂 I’m dying

Human Rights Watch Doesn’t Want Any Riyadh Comedy Festival Money

Taking money from those who took money from Saudi Arabia would impact perception of the org’s independence.

Not only this is amazing because part of fascism is the destruction of joy but it also makes it look ridiculous that the military is being deployed to put a stop to this

You won’t believe what degrading practice the Pope just condemned

Communication must be freed from clickbait and misguided thinking, head of Catholic church tells journalists The Pope has condemned clickbait as a “degrading” part of journalism, at a private audience with global newswires. Australian media representatives were among those to hear directly from Pope Leo XIV at the Vatican on Thursday with about 150 members of newswire alliance MINDS International. Continue reading...

It’s also something I’m a little infamous for with some of my friends because it’s a contentious one but I like to start hotdog sandwich discussions which feel like part of that genre, more of the type where we’re figuring out the rule together

I think it’s my history as Magic the gathering player but I’ve always thought of them as green glass door games, essentially using the first one I learned as a metonym for the genre

I think in a lot of ways it’s an engaging style of GM because the players have to play in the space of like “is this what I want to do or the character would do, and does that matter?”. At the end of the day I think the answer is no, but my characters often end up in danger when I’m a player so

At the end of the day I’m a schemer and I think people enjoy playing with me because it’s always a bit of a tightrope that is always welcoming you to fall into the foam pit at the bottom, it’ll be chaotic and weird but it’ll be fun

As much as I love running games and being a part of APs, I almost never relisten to the games that I run just because it’s A Lot(!) of my own voice to listen to, but it’s always so funny. I’m such a cheeky little GM, I love to tempt people into ignoring the giant warning signs I place

Sometimes when you describe a character you want to convey to the party that a character is like an otherworldly, unreal beauty and you get so caught up in description the only words you can get out are “and she’s so hot, like really hot”

I'm thinking more about this and I think industrial music keeps re-evolving from first principles because the conditions that produced it are everywhere

Much like "crab", industrial music is constantly re-evolving from first principles basically anywhere where there's a bunch of metal and plastic laying about

My dope friend Adrian, who is trans, interviewed 90 transgender Texans. His project is finally out: www.dallasnews.com/news/politic...

We surveyed 90 trans Texans. Most said they’re living in fear and weighing a move

Respondents said anti-trans policies have complicated their sense of home in Texas and pushed them to consider leaving the state.

But in this wyrd, darkly whimsical folk horror game it was such a stark contrast to the situation it cut through all of the scene setting like a sharp knife, it was so fucking cool and memorable

And she hits us with a description unlike any caster description I’ve ever heard: basically just by sheer stubborn force of will channeling magic through her body, with great exertion to create copies of herself. It’s something you’d see in a shonen or like hear in a superhero ttrpg
