"How did you get into ttrpgs"

It called to me across time, as a child I used imagination, later we played without any rules. Later still a starter kit nievely understood. Finally after decades a corebook. I inhaled it. Each year I'd clawed closer, stalking a concept that at first I could not name.

Agreed. Had a couple of players take on a dire hog. It was down to a couple of HP when the players decided to flee. I was dumbfounded, but realised they had taken a decent bit of damage qnd had no idea they were so close. It was every bit as exciting to run for them.

At the end of the first term, someone tweeted:

Knowing that Trump derangement sydrome is not in any way a real diagnosis. One assumes the convention for doctors to name it after the first person to suffer it.

I suspect anything that is released during this administration will be redacted heavily, to protect all invoĺved especially for some quid pro quo. Or will be very specifically redacted to protect the office of the president from the actions, (or inactions) of its current holder.

Theres big feelings about AI. I say it's just another creative tool.

There have been times where I have considered going to a GM and ask what would have happened. A voice at the back of my mind tells me I've made my choice and that knowledge is not meant for me.
