“erotica for verified adults” sounds like the least sexy thing one can do with a computer, and I include “assembling one”

How did it get there? Why is it floating?
Is it… getting closer?

It’s so loud.

Feels like only last month we were recording our LRR20 podcasts 😅

Last day for Pizzamas stuff!

Here's one of my favorite throw-away jokes in the game. This is an optional thing in one transitionary location BTW. I wrote almost 60(!) pages of jokes for this, many of which are probably just for the DM!

pizzamas.com/collections/...

THE GIFT SHOP:
• An assortment of “personalized” keychains featuring common names like Hank, John, Dave, and Bort. (Roll a luck check (D20, no modifiers.) On a 14 or higher, the player’s name is in stock.
• Pizzamas themed gifts for everyone on a pizzamas shopping list. There are shirts, pyjamas, hats, hair claws, and even colouring books. Inexplicably, the pizza-scented candles are sold out.
• Frozen Banana Locos on a Stick. Flavors include: Baked Beans, Zesty Peanut Butter, and Mixed Up Ladder. They are 1 gold piece/$6.99 and advertise “miraculous nutritional properties.”

Further Investigating the Frozen Banana Locos:
Whatever Mixed Up Ladder is, the label indicates the flavour is “100% humane.” The ingredients list is: banana, ladder filling (simulated), artificial flavors. Baked Beans and Zesty Peanut Butter are more self-explanatory.

If anyone buys and eats a Banana Loco:
They are fully healed, but they have to describe how it tastes.

Not really, mostly as they’ve said explicitly that isn’t what Reality Fracture is.

Graham Stark @graham.loadingreadyrun.com · 4d

Oh 100%! I’d say a majority of them.

Graham Stark @graham.loadingreadyrun.com · 4d

I would be shocked if you did

This video from @hankgreen.bsky.social hits hard. Everything he talks about has been swirling around in my head for a good year or so and it’s a lot.

But his advice at the end is spot on. Go buy Kathleen’s adventure at pizzamas.com. I just grabbed a shirt and the DM screen.
