There is no reason to release this now unless you wanted: 1- to put the fear of god into him if he loses to this Jedd Fisch & 2- to help him play out of it by beating a "quality program" Washington at home if he doesn't gives them a 4th quarter scare, he should start looking for an exit anyway.

They'll all be going to Rent Faires, where they pretend to be living in 1970s-1990s New York City. The Warriors and Seinfeld and Paris Is Burning serve as foundational texts.

Something that has been made clear to me through Larp is that for a lot of folks, rules being accessible means "Rules I don't think I need to read" Like.. we've had our rules called complex to understand because we added a Diagram. You know.. those things used to make rules easier to parse.

Shoutout to all the LARP and reenactment photographers who shoot their gorgeously costumed subjects with direct sunlight, you make the most enticing and inspiring work to practice from as a fantasy painter! (gouache in a large MUJI sketchbook)

How many movies do you have to see to feel that you're knowledgeable in the artform? Hundreds, maybe 1000+ I think. How many novels do you have to read to feel you know literature? Similarly, a large number. How many rpgs you have to play to understand them? Probably not 1000+

New grant for #larp venue costs! While our recurring festival sadly doesn't qualify, perhaps your dream one-shot larp does.
One day you'll hear: "You had to be there." This is your chance to say: "I helped make it." Place to Play Grant. Donate!

if you say you're to kill someone it's a threat, but if you say you're going to kill a trillion people it's clearly facetious. so there's gotta be a number where it switches over.

we need to start considering "playing and running ttrpgs" a high stakes trade. we have recurring discourse because no one is taking on apprentices. there should be competing schools of thought that are explicitly taught. oral tradition only. posting secrets of your sect to argue gets you banished

The BSPE operation is a Press Release mechant that may also be a straight-up scam. I recall them saying they would buy $WBD by partnering with hollywood unions a few months ago too- its slop aimed to appeal to people who want to believe in Good Woke Capitalism.

Let new blood revitalize the art we love or we will all end up with the same people telling the same stories over and over and over again. I don't care how excellent of a storyteller you are, unless we expose ourselves to new things, we will all stagnant and become boring.

RIP Coop, beloved professional feature of LARP society locally & abroad, including Darkness Emergent and many a Grand Masq Any space, event or organization with him in it was better for the experience, and his good nature and friendship made the afters as much a draw as the during.

I feel like there's something deeper someone smarter than me could dive into with smart glasses regarding how we categorize stuff in a capitalist society. Like they are straight up hidden recording devices but somehow the product being Glasses(tm) obscures that for a lot of people.

In our info ecosystem, it's tough for someone who wants to grow in their writing to think about goal outlets to publish in. Audience is kinda useful, but it's not even fully clear who reads what these days. I want a Pew survey that focuses on what different groups of people read, when they read.

For me, as a football fan: A playcall is clearly game-design enacted by the two teams doing play-events; as such, a play-action pass (or even later, a run-pass option) is not mind control, you have presented a choice to engage within the premise. "What if the linebacker pulls a gun?" is dismissable

One of my Game Tasters is an infrastructure/transportation engineering professor with a particular interest in maps. We were going through the new TTRPGs & playful media last night — the combo of maps in Stonetop, Blades 68 & Asher’s Ridge may have blown his mind.

This is a good show; my theory of the case here is the modern canard that "customer/food service makes people sympathetic & respect life", and it'll turn out that all the characters did a manslaughter (alienslaughter) and accepts the situation.

I have a hypothesis that there is an "exploitation gap" for artistic subcultures, where growth is permitted up to a point where a cabal of men successful in the space have the leverage to enact exploitation of those under them and keep that cabal at maximum power by styming organic growth.

I've got something in my brain about #ttrpg players and parasocial relationships, but I'm not in the right headspace. We've all witnessed the rise in a parasocial relationship with D&D5e alone, buoyed by Critical Role and a few key others. But that pales in the shadow of Vampire: The Masquerade.

A single red rose lays beneath the title.

I feel a smarter person can flesh this out more, but I feel this is related to how sexualized women's feet have become. So much so that they feel uncomfortable showing them. Reaffirming that it is inherently sexual. Eventually leading to YT deleting channels based on "feet are boobs now."

I have mostly stopped complaining about misuse of "dopamine" because it's a futile battle, but here's my take from two years ago: "Pretending that “it’s only addiction if it’s lower class, otherwise it’s just sparkling dopamine,” doesn’t help anyone."

Dopamine for Me, Addiction for Thee
Dopamine this, dopamine that – everywhere you look, dopamine is the source of all our ills.
