Not only is it easy to start your own website, it's also pretty easy to set up your own online store. You don't need to rely solely on marketplaces like DTRPG or itch. Marketing is a whole other beast, but it's never a bad idea to set up your own sales platform.
1. Discovery is hard in any era of social media, and on any platform, in any time, ever
2. This is neither here nor there to my point that on your own site you are not subject to the whims of fascists and/or billionaires
3. These days it's actually really easy to start one's own site! (con't)

You started your blog at a time when people were still discovering new websites organically. The mechanisms are different now. While your sentiment is correct, the reality of people in the current tech era means that it is harder to start independent sites.

All this revisionist fluff surrounding Nickelback is making me feel genuinely insane. Like, people believe their vilification was some kind of psy-op. And everyone who has ever hated this band is part of a mindless mob... But somehow the hordes of fans filling stadiums to listen to them aren't?

Cube is my favourite cube-based movie, and Cube 2 is my favourite hypercube-based movie.
Cube Zero is unfortunately my least favourite cube-based movie, but incidentally it's also my second favourite cube-based movie.
Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

Question for my fellow human writers who enjoy using em-dashes: Do you put a space before and after an em-dash? I never have, but it's something I've been seeing a lot lately and I'm wondering if it's an AI thing.
Something like — this, as opposed to like—this.

One of my favourite reads of 2925 snuck in at the last minute ! I highly recommend checking out Senlin Ascends by Josiah Bancroft. It checks a lot of boxes for me, many having to do with the megadungeon I've been working on. And despite being allergic to series' I can't wait to dive into the sequel!

Good lord Shopify. Get it together.
Maybe if you weren't constantly laying off your dev and support staff, you'd have the resources to handle your shit when things go haywire. Just a thought.

Today my 4yo was sitting and looking out the window and I asked him what he was looking at. And he said "I'm just waiting for Santa" in the sweetest lil voice.
Shit like that blows my mind. Parenting is really tough sometimes, but it's full of these tiny moments that just make me melt.

I've been looking through the Voynich Manuscript and you can't convince me this isn't a GM's campaign notes written in code to keep their secrets safe from their players.

Would anyone judge me if I quit my job and neglected my family so I could play Arc Raiders?
Because you can't really play those kinds of games casually. But I really want to play it!
