"Players reported dreaming about Over/Under, losing sleep, even forgetting to eat."

@lincodega.com writes about the intensity of Mothership Month's hyperbaric roleplay experience and the bleed that resulted from a lack of conventional safety tools.
Thirty Days of Bleed
Within a high-pressure, nonstop roleplaying game, denizens of Over/Under found it difficult to extricate their character’s emotions from their own.

This is why creators and consumers hate AI.
It drowns out humor efforts by sheer mass, they are often low quality slop, and THERE IS NO WHERE TO ESCAPE THEM.

every formerly human creative endeavor is being inundated by plagiarism box output, leaving us to shovel shit to find human creation.
Nearly every single day I have games like this clogging up my inboxes, and it's such a time wasting endeavour, as I have to sort through and filter out all the AI generated shovelware, and it just won't stop. No matter how clear I am that I am not interested in AI slopware, it keeps coming.

most liberals fundamentally believe this, the only part they're angry about is that he says the quiet part loud. but you cannot support the genocide in palestine or eulogize dick cheney without believing muslims are fundamentally lesser and not deserving of rights or dignity.
Stephen Miller is now arguing that assimilation is fundamentally impossible and that certain cultures are not compatible with Western civilization

Just found an 1891 example of a ghost turning someone's hair white (which is both the earliest and first I have found) so this Thanksgiving is going pretty great.

I have written a new blog about what an OSR is. I am told there is a lot of discourse about this, but am confident that this should settle the matter once and for all.

Watching Honey Don't and heard bad things but honestly loving it. A bizarre mashup of genre tropes, characters out of time, Sam Raimi roots cartoon violence.

Not only is this sequel good, but it's good in the same way Homeworld: Catacylsm was good - in that it takes an established sci-fi (sci-fantasy in this case) setting and expands it in new and interesting ways rather than just doing retreats of shit that we've already seen COUGH COUGH HOMEWORLD 2
Treasure Planet: Battle at Procyon (2002)

The underrated but beloved Disney movie didn't get a sequel BUT has spawned a game, set after the story of the film. And it was good.

Well, it was made by Barking Dog Studio (Homeworld Cataclysm, now Emergence), which became Rockstar Vancouver (Bully).
