So the thing about the Supreme Court invalidating Trump's order on mail-in ballots is that they're gonna do it anyway

Since I made the hot take recently about disliking Dragon Age: Origins, a game that is widely praised in the nerd community, it is only fair that I write about the hang-ups that turn me off of the game. Being a game designer, I have to actually explain them, beyond just shitposting! +

Wandering around wondering "ugh why are my legs so uncomfortable" like yesterday wasn't leg day

I was so bored that I spun up Dragon Age: Origins for something to do, and immediately regretted it (That game is so bad)

If you've played or designed RPGs you are doubtless familiar with skill systems. You have a list of different things that you can learn to do, and if you practice them (with "experience points" or w/e), you can get better at them. Yeah, my character took gymnastics in college, I can do that. +

LinkedIn suggesting that I should link with Barack Obama? This is just ludicrous at this point

I really, really, really do not understand people who cannot just let Harry Potter go and be in the past while they find something else to occupy their fandom It is wild to me that ppl think their stripey scarves and golden snatches and House Meeplebum quizzes are more important than ppl's lives + https://static.klipy.com/ii/39f2394ae36df6e199be9eb7c9fa1012/14/a4/LpqPW4va.gif?hh=216&ww=384&mp4=WYfnOJrkqiCjJ7i&webm=uOzbLaGOo3wwQMRaMdDT

Kendal did some work for me for my li'l #DarkSun project, and the results were phenomenal. Timely. Moody. Kendal was easy to work with, immediately understood what I was looking for, and was happy to make changes on request. Big ups. [contains quote post or other embedded content]

On the drive to work I saw a license plate FYREHRT and the meaning varies depending on how informed you are in the trans community

Some days are tough, but we must carry on, if not for ourselves, then for the rest of the world that's counting on us.

Something I wanna add, since this popped off unexpectedly. If you are enthusiastic about/invested in Dark Sun, read the actual interviews with Greg Bilsland. Parse what he actually says. Recognize that further information is sparse. + [contains quote post or other embedded content]

And now for a gaming thread that nobody will like! My interactions with Hasbro/WotC are low these days because I'm not a fan of Hasbro corporate decisions. Thus, even though I was a #DarkSun superfan from ages long past, I'm not enthusiastic about the upcoming Dark Sun releases. cw: slavery 🧵 +

Here's a quick little word replacement you can do in your head: electric shock gloves -> whips ... and now you know how they will be used.

Folks growing up over the last few decades have no trust in organizations. Why should they? All of their governments, politicians, institutions are just their to screw them over and exploit them for money. This unfortunately makes union activity harder. +

Achieving balance in life is about showing someone a kindness, then running a Vampire game and absolutely ruining your players

"Hellraiser" is so funny b/c it's like "What if pain... was actually pleasure" "What if feeling bad... felt good" My man I was in the Goth scene in the 90s, you ain't special

Gonna be "hilarious" to watch conservatives explode with indignation as California moves to ban all child marriage, while they (conservatives) continue to demand banning gay marriage and allowing themselves to marry children +

In "Frozen," Elsa sings about "frozen fractals all around," which implies that the story is set in at least 1975, as that is when Benoit Mandelbrot used the word. This means that Elsa and Anna likely live long enough to see their story as a Disney film. In this essay I will

I have hired Saga for character art and maps, and I have never been disappointed. Professional, on time, takes direction well. [contains quote post or other embedded content]

I think it's obvious at this point (and the recent EA deal underscores this) that what now drives venture capital acquisitions is looking at the employee balance sheet. If a company has lots of highly-paid employees, buy it, then do layoffs. Juice stock price with the "savings," then bankrupt. +
