@nluewmist / I’m finally reading Dune. This quote which in the first few pages hit hard; “once men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only let other men with machines to enslave them.”

I used to feel bad for Star Wars droids. People were so mean to them when they’re just lil guys doing their best, doing what they’re programmed to do. Now that we have genAI, I get it. If ChatGPT had a metal body and followed me around, I’d probably try to nudge it into a ditch.

The video game industry decided to discontinue their product, the video game, in exchange for trying to make Fortnites. They have in recent years found out this doesn't work, so they have pivoted from making Fortnites to making ????????????????? nothing I guess

100%, man. 😄 The last time I did it, literally as soon as I started, I thought, “Well, this was a huge mistake.” But you can’t stop, it’s too late for that. 😅 So I kept going, splashed water on my face, raised my head up to get my first look at myself, and was *immediately* like, “…well, fuck.” 😂

over on x the everything app some Chicago high school kid named Danny Spud tried to disrupt his school's anti-ICE protest by yelling about how much he loves ICE and then filmed himself getting walloped by a fellow student lmao the quote tweet making fun of him has 3x the likes
danny's original tweet which reads, Today, students at my high school in Chicago held an Anti-ICE protest.

I was the only one that decided to hold a sign that said ‘I Love ICE’.

Instead of allowing me to express my opinion, I was assaulted — Just for standing up for law enforcement.

What is happening to America? 

there is a 47 second video that sees multiple other kids talk smack to him and one of them just lays into him physicallya quote tweet that has transcription from the punch. the tweet reads:“You’re gonna punch me?”
“Yeah”
“Then you’re gonna in trouble for that”
“Okay”

Followed by this frame is one of the hardest things I’ve seen on the internet this week.

the frame in question is the kid winding up for a punch. it looks exactly like the pepe punching meme

That's why we splurged on the VIP: in those four hours, we should see basically everything in Epic. But then it's over around 2pm, and we have Express Passes and the rest of the day to re-visit as much or as little as we want.

We've never gone because, once you're already committed to going to Disney, it's a lot cheaper to just keep adding Disney days to your trip compared to adding on a Universal day or two. But we're going this year for our 20th anniversary, and the Gen X in me *has* to see SNW, so we're splurging. 😁

I’ve thought for years that it would have been better to make Indy the American James Bond and recast him after the third film and then always have him able to fight Nazis. However, in today’s Hollywood, it’s hard not to think this will be very bad

The problem is: they've mistaken correlation for causation. They think their parents and grandparents had a good life *because* of manufacturing jobs. When, in reality, their parents and grandparents had a good life *despite* manufacturing jobs, because of unions, high taxes, and social policies.

Here’s Why There Is A Disconnect Between The Games Industry And Gamers
With layoffs and continuing poor AAA game sales, it’s worth seeing how this happens and why gaming feels detached from its players.

I ran Jeweler's Sanctum today (from AA 1) for a group of new players, and it could not have gone better. Big 👍🏻👍🏻 for it. I'm ready to run the other modules, for sure.

Anyway, we'll pick it back up in a couple of weeks. This all only happened because the Thief had foot surgery, and I figured he could do with some cheering up while he's housebound, and D&D was something I knew we could all do together for a Saturday. Good deeds matter. 😊

And the other newbie (who is my oldest nephew) agreed to be our mapper for the session. I was pleasantly surprised at how accurate his map compared to the printed one.

But it was 100% his fault, and really just a consequence of him being greedy. Still, I got these texts from him before I could even get home.

Jeweler's Sanctum is a pretty small dungeon, but it still took between 3 and 4 hours for them to clear. They had some amazing successes (surprising the Tarantella and killing it before it could even get any licks in), and some things were hilariously confusing to them. ...the Thief died. 😂

Despite one of those two newbie players going fully into murder-hobo mode almost immediately (we laughed that he was less a "Thief" than he was "An Asshole Mugger"), things settled pretty quickly and they worked really well together. A lot of "we" rather than "I" in short order.

Well, that went better than I would have dared hope. Two of the three players had never played D&D at all, in any edition. Or any TTRPG, for that matter. The other ran and played 3.5 back in the day, but nothing since then. I ran The Jeweler's Sanctum from OSE's Adventure Anthology 1.

I haven't run any of them yet, but they feel like the perfect length of time, honestly. I can see how any of these *could* eat up an evening, but I could also see us tearing through one and onto another. Very minimal prep, but lots of possibilities (which I am coming to see is an OSR Hallmark).
