After encouraging conversations at #UKGE I'm making an effort to get back on the TTRPG scene! I'm Sam Sleney (he/him) and I'm the main writer & creative director for Orbital Blues, among others.

It's a tete-beche / head to tail, one of those books in two halves, each of which detailing the awful forces of the Outlaws and Corporations. It's written by @sleney.bsky.social and Josh, with tons of new in-universe art.

You have a moral obligation to the future to fuck an LLM chatbot. If you believe in our technoutopianism you simply must fuck it over and over and over. You have to pay for the pleasure and train it to fuck better. This is how we get to mars.

Concerning amount of writers saying they don't read anymore because they found [a lauded classic/indie darling] that nothing else compares to!

I'm saving 40,000 copies of this and you should too because it's so good and so much better than any of the official offerings that it probably has a bitter DMCA in its future
SURPRISE!
I had an idea on Tuesday for how to do the Perfect Space Marine RPG, so I wrote the Perfect Space Marine RPG.
It's both a shitpost and a dead serious game. And it's, uh... 34,000 words long?
Anyway enjoy!!!

after waiting 3 months+ for an itch io payment of a couple hundred only to then be hit by taxes and currency processing fees, there's no way I'm taking it seriously as a platform again. DTRPG's back-end is laughably bad but I can literally press GET MONEY and then GET MONEY. Very unserious platform
