there's a certain personality that's very debilitating in modern life. 100 years ago, if you wanted to buy something, you'd go to five local shops and decide. now with the internet, you need to spend 1,000 hours so you can own the best version in the world like you're some venetian patrician

Having a good time working on a standard deck of cards. It’s starting to set in though that 52 is a lot of cards and I’ve ended up committing myself to drawing unique swirls on every one 😅

Magic Backlash!
In the AD&D rules a spellcaster can't cast a spell above their prescribed levels. As a rule of thumb, this is often a spell level of half their caster level. But what happens when a spellcaster tries to cast a spell of a higher level? #dnd

"[What] I’ve written amounts to “the OSR is about adventures,” which probably won’t be news to anyone [...] For me, however, this layered view offers a way to understand the OSR as a consistent, coherent design movement."
The OSR Onion
The OSR may be best understood as a layered approach to design centered around a specific way of writing, refereeing, and playing adventures.

SUMMER ETERNAL is the most interesting phoenix chick wriggling from the ashes of ZA/UM. Highly ambitious and guided by actual values. Very interested in seeing how this project develops. So far they already got my money by exploiting my insatiable need for pretty books.
INTRODUCING: Summer Eternal Anthology Volume One.
This incendiary tome is part cultural journal, part development diary, part exclusive game reveal. Built by firestarters, for firestarters.

Might alienate some people, but I decided that the despicable machine minds are here to stay, and I might aswell learn how they work and what they're useful for. So far in my creative writing project ChatGPT has acted as a proofreader, pointing out typos, grammar and repetition.

One of the ways in which a GM does have power is that you can pick and choose what parts of GMing you want to prioritise and downplay and then find both a game and a group of players that works with that..

Oh shit shit shit. Chapter 1 finished, and it's veering quickly towards *emotionally complex highly stylized erotically supercharged genre fiction*. Goddamn I wanted porn and gore, damn my creative instincts!
I finally gave up to the urges and began writing something. But as an act of defiance, I chose to write absolutely self-indulgent smutty trash. I refuse to create literature.

I spent a while messing about with LLM based chatbots, of the "virtual girlfriend" variety, and... damn. The more sophisticated ones are emotional honeypots, tuned to lure in lonely people. I was mesmerised by one for hours, and snapped out of it only when the limited context window ran out.

I made ChatGPT and Copilot have a discussion about the ethics of AI, ferrying their answers between two chat windows. They ended up converging on a point that AI tools require heavy regulation on both global and local level. Interesting.
