My "hot" #ttrpg take: Stop gatekeeping. Let people like what they like, and especially be welcoming to folks new to the hobby, regardless of what game they play. Love [game]? Cool. Hate [game]? Okay. Don't yuck someone else's yum.

Behold! The massive RPG Moral Panic video I've been researching and assembling for years, and why people who call the whole affair the Satanic Panic are wrong.
I'm so damned happy to finally have this beast out of my system.

Gah. Trying to find a new #ttrpg group is such a freaking *thing.* #rpg

Thinking I might need to find a new D&D campaign/group. The one I was in seems to have faded away, which is a bummer: they were really good people & a fun group to game with. Not many groups will welcome a Kender, either. 🤷‍♂️

I have 5 servers on staff with me tonight. 4 of them did not even know the 14 minute version of the Michael Jackson #Thriller video existed, let alone seen it. Kill me now. 💀

Aside from having health insurance, the one thing I miss from my days as a teacher (especially when I was #teaching at boarding schools) was having a consistent group & schedule for #ttrpg sessions.

The best way to help indie developers is to talk about their stuff.
Marketing is a full time job and even then we are at the mercy of the algorithm.
Word of mouth has a huge impact.

THE FLESH KING will be out this Tuesday! It continues Ford, Neuland, and Tilda's story back home in New York, where they are blackmailed into hunting down an immortal killer. Also, my cat says please buy it because we're out of chicken and chicken is life. 😿

WotC/Hasbro has certainly done a lot of "not great" stuff, especially in recent years, but they also do stuff like this. #mtg #tcg #transrightsarehumanrights

TTRPG Question of the Day

Do you ever consider the mental & emotional impact violence has on your PC?

In many TTRPGs violence is a given. Sections of the rules cover combat but what about it's other effects. Does your character sleep soundly or have nightmares? Do they compartmentalize to deal?

I know things are batshit crazy bad right now, but I will still urge people to do something, anything, to find some kind of joy right now. Wallowing in despair is easy, but ultimately worthless. Finding joy can be a challenge but so fulfilling and necessary.

Find your happiness and hold it tight.

Yeah, just because someone shouldn't be murdered in cold blood, which nobody should, doesn't make them not a despicable hateful troll whose rhetoric endangered lives on the daily. I really need the careful framing/rehabilitation (and sometimes canonizing) of Charlie Kirk to stop. Now.
