What's that? We've just dropped FIVE one-shot Adventures written by fantastic guest writers?! DAMN RIGHT WE DID! These Adventures will lead you on unique journeys, teach you about resistance, community building, and camaraderie in the face of fascism. www.sdrgames.studio/collections/...

five human-drawn cover images for the five one-shot adventures designed by various voices in the RPG community.
1. protestors stood atop a yellow school bus "if you build it, they will come!" on a banner
2. A feminine person foraging in a clover patch, an abandoned motorbike in the foreground, "Foraging for freedom" in the background.
3. Birds-eye view of the roof of a data centre with a security camera scouring the area, "Optics" written on the side of the building in neon blue
4. A giant waterfall with the rusty remains of a water power plant, people walking along the top. "In deep water" text in front of the cliff.
5. Looking up at a brutalist tower block at sunrise, with a helicopter letting soldiers absail down the building. "The house of Glass" is written in pink on the side of the building, alongside two protest banners

A depressing testimonial from one of the jeepney drivers here: "I weep for my current situation. Even after a full day's work, I only took home 32 pesos (less than 1 USD)." (cont)

picture of a man, a jeepney driver, in tears over the fair price hike. in yellow text below the image, it reads:

"I weep for my current situation. Even after a full day's work, I only took home 32 pesos (less than 1 USD). I loaded up diesel onto my jeepney, it cost me 900PhP, and then all day I drove my jeepney. But all that was left of me was 32 pesos. I don't drive beyond where I am sanctioned, I only do the route I am assigned. I don't know what to do, how I could possibly pay for my daily expenses for myself and my family. How will I feed them? It only keeps getting worse. No matter how hard I work, how much I try, what I earn is not enough for our daily needs."

One of the many sins of genAI is that the societal necessity of staying vigilant for it frequently turns into a policing strategy, often with punitive consequences for the handful of people who still write and make art with human integrity. I hope this student wins their suit.

a black and white illustration of a creek in a dark forest where a pine tree has e fallen and cast a shadow over the creek. there are inset comic panels that feature in sequence: someone eating pussy, someone licking another person’s armpit, a fledgling downy woodpecker in a pine tree, someone pulling someone’s hair from behind, someone licking a woman’s dick, and a frog on a rock in the creek.
