PSA to all fantasy TTRPG authors:

Spiders do not have mandibles (they have chelicerae). Nor do they have compound eyes (they have “simple eyes,” ocelli). Nor a venomous stinger at the end of their abdomen (that’s where the spinnerets go).

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

How do you handle costly components environmentally/mechanically?

Are these things plentiful and easily accessible, heavily regulated & requiring permits or do you prefer to have it limited to things found "out in the wild"

What impact does this have?

Holiday gatherings can be really hard for autistic kids and adults.

And the reasons why aren’t always obvious.

So please use and share our guide to helping autistics avoid

One woman said her father called in June to say he was going to be paroled after serving 20 years for car theft.

Then in September, she got another call: He was instead being transferred to await deportation.

It was the last time she heard from him.

Louisiana Made It Nearly Impossible to Get Parole. Now It’s Releasing Prisoners to Deport Them.
Gov. Jeff Landry eliminated parole for prisoners arrested after Aug. 1, 2024, and tightened eligibility rules for those already in prison. Then he set all of that aside for one group: undocumented imm...

New: If you're queer, you know that the holidays can be rough. Maybe you have a bad relationship with your family and holidays carry painful memories. I spoke to LGBTQ+ Texans across the state about how they find community this time of year: www.chron.com/culture/arti...
Where can LGBTQ+ Texans go for Thanksgiving when home is off-limits?

The whole "Humans are an Invasive Species" trope among well-meaning people is so damaging...the inability to separate the word "Humans" from "Western Capitalist Civilization" is the single biggest issue I face when teaching Intro. Go talk to one Indigenous person. Or just someone without a LinkedIn.

FROM THE HOLO-LOGS🛸💻!

Deep sea dwellers, the Kthlesh are methane-breathers who build colossal colonies around undersea volcanoes. What their actual bodies look like no one knows, but their large exo-dive-suits must hold huge ones.

I liked this so much I want to use this as a springboard for showing off some art and talking about this concept
A fascinating thought for writers: How your cultures ornament and augment their environment says a lot about where their culture places their idea of value. Societies that cover things in complex, intricate motifs are telling you that *labor* is the greatest form of wealth, rather than materials.

Remember your favorite creator possibly might be struggling with imposter syndrome and doubt and this timeline sucks.. so if you find yourself thinking “wow I really relate to this persons work” or that persons work gives you joy, you should probably tell them. It’s a hard time to be a creative.

the bbc changed their article from saying 'trans woman' to saying 'biological male who identifies as a woman'.

even if you don't care about trans ppl it should alarm you just how captured the bbc has become.

they will no longer even say 'trans woman'. that's not normal and shows massive bias.
