every piece of mass-market software these days feels like living with an unruly pet where you have to constantly stop what you're doing to check if it's secretly eating plastic under the dresser again

Really enjoyed playing Ten Candles last night. Boy is it hard to shift your mindset away from D&D though 😅

My hottest Pokemon take is that Gen V did it right and more games should have the courage to leave all the mons from older games until the post game. Have the chance to learn to love some new guys, become champion together. You can have your nostalgia when you're champion.

you don't understand. as someone who isn't inherently good at art, stealing paintings from the museum is the *only* way i'm able to express myself creatively. i wouldn't be able to paint beautiful portraits. but by breaking into a museum and stealing the paintings, now i am

Canonically, my Strahd has an army of rat spies that steal and melt down every electrum piece that enters Barovia. That's why that stupid coin isn't in circulation.
Do you use electrum in your D&D game? I'm trying to see something.
Also, new video coming out tomorrow 🐲

It is wild that Charlie Kirk of all things is becoming *the* litmus test.
Even just talking about the event publicly without a sufficient supply of sackcloth and ashes is cast as "promoting political violence." I haven't seen this kind of mandatory performance of allegiance and piety since 9/11.
