What's are you favorite stupid dice tricks? One of mine is "once per session, you can replace any die in any roll with a d30".
Not suitable for all games, but very stupid and very fun.

Sometimes when I talk about Stupid Dice Tricks in TTRPGs the replies make it EXTREMELY clear that a lot of folks reading those posts have never so much as glanced at anything other than D&D5E, and their idea of an unimaginably esoteric "dice trick" is, like, making skill checks with percentile dice.

COP30 overpromised, underdelivered, empowered distractions, backtracked on issues and once again gave big oil and big ag a free pass.
Unfortunately, the suspicions of climate scientists (here in Brazil and abroad) were confirmed again.

I’ll add that it’s also easy for young teens, particularly boys, to get caught up into neo-nazi, fascist propaganda that proliferates on the platform.

”Kuolleita oli kaikkialla” – ukrainalaiset toivovat, että Suomi tunnustaa 1930-luvun nälänhädän kansanmurhaksi
Yli 30 maata on tunnustanut holodomor-nälänhädän ukrainalaisten kansanmurhaksi. Nälänhätä ja Venäjän hyökkäyssota ovat osa samaa ketjua, sanoo eduskunnan puhemies Jussi Halla-aho.

Humans will NEVER colonize another planet. Never.
If we can’t even agree to do the minimum to keep Earth habitable, there’s no way in hell we’ll cooperate to make another planet habitable.

We found: the wealthiest 100 Americans gave $1.1 billion to influence the 2024 elections — 140x more than they did in 2000. And almost all of that giving boosted Republicans.

I have a deep conviction you don't buy an RPG "game".
You buy an RPG book. You SMASH that book against your own history, capabilities and aesthetics - and those of your table.
Whatever comes out is the game.

They make games and movies like they used to. So many of them. Same with books.
But the mechanisms you learned about them were totally gutted and changed to only amplify shit that's already popular.
It's still there! You're just mostly on your own to find it.

The crime of genocide didn't exist until after WW2. It was something we decided was real, needed to be identified and punished. Even if we've been spectacularly bad at putting it in practise, we conceptualised it.
I think it's about time for a CEO crime of murder-by-Economy.
