My baby boy has made it to the big leagues! He might be inexperienced and a little naive but he makes up for it with his enthusiasm! I had a blast getting to be a player this time around, and I look forward to sharing more of Golden Boy with you all 🚀

Most of us did not choose to write or draw or design so that we could put products on the shelf. We chose to do it because it’s a set of skills we enjoy exercising, that give us fulfillment. It’s like asking a pro pitcher to just let a machine pitch for them. Fuck off and give me the ball.

Here are some things that Charlie Kirk said in his life. The man is dead, and so it only seems fair to share his legacy by cataloguing the values he spread while alive.

My essay on Strange New Worlds has become about how capitalism hollows art into postmodern nostalgic, contextless product that reinforce cultural norms creating a “centrist” view that frames fascism as just a side in a debate with marginalized voices who challenge the hierarchies fascists exploit.

Holy shit: Stateline spoke to nearly a dozen firefighters, agency staffers and contractors, who said that top officials assigned to the fire deployed the crews to a remote location under false pretenses so federal agents could check their immigration status. www.hcn.org/articles/fir...

Firefighting veterans believe the management team overseeing fire crews played a key role in handing team members over to immigration authorities.

I want to make a big thread about the Frankenstein discourse but it's going to devolve into a ramble about the nature of literature and media literacy and the state of it now and it's just not even about Frankenstein being fuckable anymore. So idk. I'm just tired.

So embarrassing for a reviewer of GDT's Frankenstein to be so unfamiliar with the original novel that they would complain that Frankenstein's monster is "too sympathetic"...OPEN THE SCHOOLS! (but also let us have hot sympathetic monsters okay good grief)

It was forever ago, but I helped run and moderate a stream of Anyone Can Wear the Mask, and I remember being struck by how fun it was and how much of a natural performer you are. When I'm looking for an interesting new game to play, Po1 is my go-to. Happy Birthday!

It’s demoralizing to watch grifters grow absurdly wealthy by spreading lies that make their audiences feel good, while scientists lose research funding, some lose their jobs (as I did), and hiring freezes sweep across universities and medical centers.

bluesky still doesn't know what kind of stuff to show me so it's just showing me a collection of cool sci-fi art, mediocre furry art, critiques of the US medical care system, cool pictures people take of the sky or mountains, and some mediocre furry porn. But still better than twitter

like specifically I had a lot of cool moots on twitter that I've completely lost track of now, and it feels like everyone else got in on bluesky way before me so now it feels a bit like walking into the party after everythings wound down. And hunting down said moots feels exhausting

I'm going to try be more active on here in the coming days, because I kind of miss the ttrpg community that I used to have before twitter went to shit. Since starting this degree and getting sick I've gotten really isolated from everything design and actual play, and I wanna fix that 😅 lets chat!

I just logged onto bluesky for the first time in like months lol, and thank you for your kind words (and for the lovely thread of listening adventures!). It's been a long hard ride but I'm in such a better place now in terms of mental and physical health. And, halfway done with this degree :P

If the US's ability to continue to fund a genocidal state is any indication, I don't think that violating the utopian pillars of a single clone is enough for Union to pursue action against HA, so long as HA continues to maintain their supplying of military supplies.

141

Reed | GM of Bring Your Own Mech @reedplays.bsky.social · 08/05/2025

Another side note here: Union, HA and the other corpros and affiliated diasporans are all jockeying for power in the long rim, some more blatantly than others. And that is at the heart of Matcha's storyline with HA and something that will be expanded on more in the future.

more clear in season 3. Again, maybe the answers I have will not be satisfying, or conflict with official Lancer lore. Personally I use the lore as a font of inspiration rather than a strict setting guide--and that's aligned with the creators values and how they talk about the game as well. 4/4

140

Reed | GM of Bring Your Own Mech @reedplays.bsky.social · 08/05/2025

So is Union really going to intervene on the behalf of one clone when they don't really have a foothold in the Long Rim? The Long Rim is extremely far from Cradle and most Union planets (in BYOMverse), which allows HA more freedom to be shady. There are also things going on that will become 3/4

130

Reed | GM of Bring Your Own Mech @reedplays.bsky.social · 08/05/2025

Whether the answers I have in mind to those questions will be satisfying to everyone, only time will tell. I'll also note that I take liberties with Lancer lore, including the relationship between HA and Union. This story is also taking place outside of union jurisdiction-- 2/4

130

Reed | GM of Bring Your Own Mech @reedplays.bsky.social · 08/05/2025

Yeah it's not explained yet, but I've been hinting at it for a while. I think that yeah, you're totally right, something is fishy! Why would HA consider Matcha to be IP instead of a person? Why do they think they can get away with that? Why do they care what some runaway clone does? 1/?
