The Sunday campaign reached level 19 today. If we stay at the same clip, probably be wrapping up by November. For my second homebrew attempt, lots of lessons learned, but better than my first attempt. It will probably be the last "reactive" one I run. Learning that "proactive" is better for DMing...

Tomorrow, Discord will place everyone into an age group using account signals. They claim 90% of users won't have to confirm their age. They are also introducing new verification methods if you do need to verify that you are an adult, including Credit Cards and App Stores.
More than 90% of you won’t be asked to confirm your age. Since our last post about teen safety, we've had to launch age assurance solutions in more places, including Texas and Brazil. Laws requiring age assurance are expanding around the world. Rather than waiting to be told how to do it, we’re launching our own privacy-preserving approach: one that reflects your feedback.
You can check your age group status at User Settings > Account Status. We've estimated your age group automatically from account signals like how long your account has existed or the kinds of servers you're a part of. We don’t look at your messages, calls, or other content. We're launching this over the course of this week, so it may take a few days to reach your account.
If you're in the adult age group (18+), nothing changes. If you're in the teen age group (13-17), you can keep messaging friends, joining voice calls, and participating in non-age-restricted servers, but with additional safety protections that block age-restricted content, spaces, and settings. Otherwise, Discord works the same. More on this below.
We've added several new ways to confirm your age, including some that don't require an ID or selfie (including credit cards). If you're an adult but weren't automatically placed in the adult age group, you can confirm your age group at any time by going to User Settings > Account Status. More on the new options below.

Played D&D last night. The campaign has been going 12 years & we stepped into the chamber with the final boss. We did our last-ever level up: level 20. We ended up stringing the admin process out a bit because none of us wanted it to end. I have been playing with them for over a quarter of my life.

After last night's session, full of improv, I dreamt about the campaign. Next week, we will be 7 sessions in at level 2. I am slowly learning not to plan too far ahead, but it's a strong reflex. Excited to see how they get off the island and on to level 3... #RandomThoughts

Next stop: Titan! 🪐 NASA’s Dragonfly mission is scheduled to launch in summer 2028 and will reach Saturn’s organic-rich moon Titan in late 2034 to begin a 3.3-year primary exploration mission.
Highlighted in purple, located in the equatorial dune fields of Saturn’s moon Titan, Ahmakiq Undae has a diameter of approximately 500 miles (810 kilometers) and borders the roughly 50-mile (80-kilometer) diameter Selk impact crater, to the upper right. Deposits formed during the impact that created Selk Crater are primary exploration targets for NASA’s Dragonfly mission. The yellow box on the global image of Titan denotes the approximate area.

Something very Canadian about this quote from Angine de Poitrine’s Klek: “It’s only music. I’m not saving people’s lives. I’m just playing drums. One comment on KEXP said: ‘Now there’s a reason to live.’ I was like: calm down, man. Go kiss your mother or something – that’s a reason to live.”

We were watching the Wolverine Sentinel footage, and... We used to call these "high chair boss battles" because the boss looks like a baby in a high chair and you're on their tray. Now you have to see it, too 😅
screenshot from the new Wolverine game with him battling a giant Sentinel. Wolverine is on a platform that comes up to the sentinel's waist. The sentinel hands can come to rest on the platform. A mock bad photoshop of Wolverine in the same pose from the trailer shooped into a stock image of a large baby boy sitting in a high chair and crying. Wolverine is standing on the high chair tray in a similar angle and presentation to the previous game trailer screenshot

I wonder if people realise that uploading someone’s work into an “AI detector” just to try and accuse them of using an LLM to write it ultimately provides additional training data without consent. You are fuelling and legitimising the continual theft of original work for inaccurate results.
