I cannot tell you all what a dream it was to get to work on the digital playtest for V6! The White Wolf team was wonderful every step of the way, and my little DemiCoterie turned this one around in record time. Super proud. 🥲

Want to know why you should care about Cortex? Here's why.

Cortex Prime: The RPG System That Lets You Build the Game You Actually Want
Cortex Prime is one of those RPGs that can be hard to explain because it doesn’t begin with a setting, a class list, or a monster manual, but with a toolbox. It’s a modular, multi-genre…

Check out the thread, because it’s not *just* the Prime handbook, which is a must-have. Four games from four different authors. I have a personal love of Strange Towns, you should definitely take a look. 👀

TTRPG Sky, I’m seeking something specific. I’m looking for a roll under resolution game (ala CoC, Dragonbane) that uses varying die sizes (ala Cortex) instead of just one. Is this a thing? Show me the thing. 🙏

perfectionism is so often seen as a permissive ability to create or drive something towards perfection, but in reality, it's a crippling inability to let go of anything imperfect it's an obsession, it stagnates you, and gets you stuck on things you shouldn't be

The team worked so hard on this. Traveller is such a deep system, and bringing that to life in a digital way was not easy. Pumped for folks who love the Traveller #ttrpg, or who have never tried it before, to dive in and experience the game in a new way!

“Casting” actors as the NPCs in your home TTRPG games is severely underrated. Players falling for an antagonist’s tricks because they love the actor playing them? Delicious. Plus: the great shorthand that comes from filling out a character with the assumptions your table has of a performer.

Last week, a dear family friend who was like a second mother to me and my sister passed away very suddenly and unexpectedly. She didn’t want a service, so we said our goodbyes today in a more casual setting. But the thing sticking with me is why she didn’t want a service.

This is blackout poetry to me
I became Senior VP at a multi-million dollar company at age 26. My salary was $600k. This was in 2018.
How did I do it?

Blacked out lines

CEO (my dad) promoted me to SVP.
There are no gimmicks. There are no shortcuts.

An opinion I pretty firmly hold is that everyone should make a song, paint a painting, act in something, and write a book even if all of those things end up being objectively terrible

the idea that making art is embarrassing if you don't do it well enough to make a career out of it is an objectively harmful and toxic brainworm.

I don’t know if this is a hot take but games have rules for a reason. I like the shared boundary at the table that we agree to in the social contract of play. Rules are part of the narrative, and working with instead of against them leads to extremely memorable moments.

This is still a conservative estimate from direct deaths with verified remains. It also doesn't include deaths from disease, starvation, and other causes that were indirect. The death toll is likely 3-4 times as high. Even with that, this is still 3% of the total population killed.

I don’t think we should make concessions to the Masked Murderers Guild of America. I don’t think we should compromise so the Masked Murderers Guild of America stops using kidnapped kids from schools as bait. I thought this was already illegal. The Masked Murderers Guild of America should not exist.

The people of Minnesota have executed one of the most impressive civil resistance campaigns I can remember: - Organized a city wide general strike - Maintained nonviolent discipline amidst violence - Mobilized 10,000s in subzero temps to protest and watch ICE - Flipped public opinion against ICE

it’s come to my attention that my tumblr post has been crossposted to bluesky, so I’m posting it on my account here #AntiAI #GenAI
recently my friend's comics professor told her that it's acceptable to use gen AI for script-writing but not for art, since a machine can't generate meaningful artistic work. meanwhile, my sister's screenwriting professor said that they can use gen AI for concept art and visualization, but that it won't be able to generate a script that's any good. and at my job, it seems like each department says that AI can be useful in every field except the one that they know best.

It's only ever the jobs we're unfamiliar with that we assume can be replaced with automation. The more attuned we are with certain processes, crafts, and occupations, the more we realize that gen AI will never be able to provide a suitable replacement. The case for its existence relies on our ignorance of the work and skill required to do everything we don't.
