🗣️ we should go back to glass bottles whenever possible!! There’s a reason “reduce” and “reuse” come before “recycle”
Turning old plastic into new plastic is really, really hard.
Products made with dyes, flame retardants and other toxic chemicals create a health hazard when heated for recycling, severely limiting the products you can make from recycled plastic.

Daggerheart isn't trying to move beyond D&D, it's trying to rewrite D&D to serve the players already at the table. And, frankly, it succeeds. A long essay on game design, why "D&D is a genre," and how Daggerheart understands that great rules don't make for great roleplaying... great stories do.
Diving into game design, Daggerheart, Dungeons & Dragons, genre, and what makes a fantasy heartbreaker good enough to break your heart, @lincodega.com writes about their impressions of the new tabletop RPG from Darrington Press and comes away impressed.
Daggerheart does Dungeons & Dragons better than Dungeons & Dragons
I’m a basic heartbroken fantasy bitch.
