They advertise it as see in the screenshot as private, but in the Privacy policy they give themselves the ability to share your date with any and all partners, social media, third party collaborators, advertisers, governments, etc.
Then in TOS it notes it uses OpenAI components too!!

A screen shot from the FAQs for Meet Robyn AI Is what I say private? Always. What you say to Robyn stays between you and Robyn. Everything is encrypted--think of this as your personal vault. Vegas could never.

I got a playtest of Sanatorium - Mental Asylum Simulator by @shorelinegames.bsky.social & wow!

It is really interesting and uses the setting / topic without being cringe or exploitative!
The game released Nov 6th so expect a series of streams playing it & talking about the histories it pulls from!

Thank you @wizardstyles.bsky.social @jienbirb.bsky.social @cursebreakerelliot.bsky.social @renegadedumpling.bsky.social @rosatyrs.bsky.social
I had an absolute blast!

Here's the mood board & playlist for Leander
Playlist: music.youtube.com/playlist?lis...
A Character concept and mood board for my character Doctor Leander from The Between: London 1868 on Starcrawl rpg It is a collage of pictures, words and quotes that provide a vibe of a Black London doctor who is also a murder and heartbroken over a love who has spurned him.

THE FINALE IS LIVE!
www.twitch.tv/starcrawlrpg
Character art for the cast of The Between on twitch.tv/starcrawlrpg, livestreamed Saturdays at 4pm Eastern Time/9pm British Time The characters are, from left to right: A winged changeling with silvery green hair, leaning back casually, their black cat next to them. A woman, wearing a military outfit looking as if to challenge whoever happens to be in front of her, holding a halberd with gold decorations. A woman wearing high quality shirt and skirt, holding tarot cards in one hand and summoning a purple flame in the other, her cat a little to the right. In the background, the ghostly, floating figure of a woman with a bleeding head wound as well as skeletal hands, an autopsy hammer with blood on it and a broken pocket watch floating above them. A tall man, smiling rigidly, wearing a fine outfit including a tailcoat with blue floral brocade. He is holding a doctor's bag. Transparent in the background is the looming figure of an older man in a suit and top hat with a full white beard and glowing green eyes, leaning on a gnarled stick.

Fri Oct 10 is World Mental Health Day Theme is Access to Services – Mental Health in Catastrophes & Emergencies

So it's important to note: the scale & scope of mental health & wellness crises we have is a direct result of a worldwide disregard of life and care by those in charge.
