Hello. My second TTRPG product is coming out very soon. Perhaps it will distract you from all of this, if even for a moment quarcoxa.itch.io/quarcoxa-2

i tried to make a starter pack of “cool ass guys” that just consisted of me but you need like seven people minimum for a pack so my plans are ruined

But the theory I personally like the most is that they were gaming tokens. The sex act may have been specific to the game ("draw a coin from the bag and do what it says" has been suggested, for a sort of organised orgy scenario) or they may just have been naughty decorative checkers.

Politics is innate to every community! And as an aside, exclusionary and hyperindividualist politics are a *strange* fit for a hobby that's built around DIY imagination games with friends. You don't fundamentally need capital to play RPGs- but you *do* need friends and neighbors.
“No Politics” is always a red flag, even when defending your tabletop business

95% of Gygax worship is "fake fan" behavior imho. There's no way Elon has the patience or social skill to keep a campaign going.
This is such forced outrage lol.
He's throwing a fit because the 50th Anniversary "Making of D&D" book has sidebars saying that some of the content (slurs, misogyny) don't reflect what D&D is today.
Mind you, all old books on DriveThruRPG have had the same thing for years LMAO

I'll be honest... I see a lot of profiles that have tons of little icons in them and I have no idea what most of that stuff means. I have this fear that I'll follow someone whose list of 37 icons means they are a genocidal, white nationalist serial killer who writes Pol Pot fanfic on another site.

THIS IS A CALL TO ACTION. Censorship affects all of us, and if Project 2025 gets its way, the entire trans publishing industry is at a significant risk of criminalization. In this article, I lay out the problem and the stakes, and suggest a broad action plan with dozens of potential response ✊
