I'm just saying that Moonnbeam, a start-up streaming service headed by an Active Duty U.S. Army Strategist who is cozy with the IDF, should be left to wither and die on the vine no matter how many shiny toys/sponsorships it dangles for #ttrpg peeps.

FUNKO IS DYING
RETWEET TO MAKE IT DIE FASTER
Funko admits “substantial doubt” it can continue as a going concern amid crashing sales and mounting debt.

The Pop! maker warns of potential loan defaults without fresh funding or a buyout, after a 14% sales drop and $250M in obligations.

Thursday has some cool micro TTRPGs for just a few bucks apiece, two of which are inspired by Shadowrun's Bug City and Renraku Shutdown (two of my fave SR campaign settings!), and one is solo-playable, so check it out!

I've been there recently, when I was informed that OCD didn't make me neurodivergent. Blurgh. People with OCD have unique brain wiring and patterns that require constant managing. It's a lifelong condition. Gatekeeping sucks
The reason i don't talk about my neurodivergence is because a handful of people who are autistic informed me that bipolar is an illness and autism is not an illness...and illness is not a part of neurodivergence

So i got kicked out of the different-brain club

I find it kind of beautiful that we're seeing the next iteration of Apocalypse World's DIY art. Two of the biggest names in indie roleplaying games show, once again, that it's not about spectacle or expense. It's about using the skills you have and the skills you can develop to make it how you can.

The tl;dr is simple: a certain asshole in the Kremlin can't learn when to quit, and that translates into power outages for everyone involved.

As such, we're holding a sale to help Val cover the costs of a UPS - so that he can, if anything, stay online in the meantime: itch.io/s/166115/bri...

Troupe style is one of those approaches to RPGs that people resist but I tend to find love when they actually try it.

Basically:
You have a character that's yours.
You may have a secondary character.
You then have a pool of other characters you can grab as needed.

Why is the "take a bunch of level 0 nobodies, run them through a deadly adventure, see who survives, and make those into your level 1 characters" style of OSR module called a FUNNEL, when it clearly sounds like it should be a SIEVE?

It's almost 🐭mausritter month🐭! A lot of inspring supplements are about to hit @backerkit.com.

My first exploration of sword-and-wisker play resulted in a putrid dungeon. Age-old potatoes have amalgamated into an ungulating, cavernous mass. Supposedly there's treasure there. Why not check it out? 💍
