Players. Trust me when I say this.

It's okay for your character to be bad at things, to be scared, and to show weakness. To be totally honest? I think you'll find that imperfect characters are *so much more fun* to play.

The older I get, the more this quote rings true to me.
Love doesn't just sit there, like a stone, it has to be made, like bread; remade all the time, made new.

stop using AI to do your research. it hallucinates too often. if you want an answer to something, post something arrogant on the appropriate subreddit. something like: "this item performs 10% better than everything else. only idiots deny this." this will bait nerds into doing your research for you.

I think at this point the UK has accepted Paddington as the Death Bear, collector of souls. So, I think as a nation we should start smearing marmalade on the eyes of the dead and whisper “fare for the crossing”. It’ll feel weird now but, in three of four generations, no one will question it.

I should really bookmark fascinating TTRPG blog posts, instead of realising two months later I read something really cool I would like to re-read, and then having no way of finding it again 😭

Excellent advice!
Tepid Take: Are you a home GM on a time budget? Abstract your city map. Save the detailed mapping for neighbourhoods and areas where things will actually happen. Cities, and towns for that matter, are basically point-crawl spaces and you don't need to burn hours upon hours mapping it all out.

The "traditional" structure of TTRPGs puts an enormous amount of pressure on the GM to learn/refine & very little on the players.

Which is somehow seen as more reasonable than spreading the load of learning/contribution across the whole table.

Broader implications about community in there, y'all.

One day, I will get my chance to play a Benoit Blanc-inspired character in a TTRPG.
a man in a suit and tie is holding a piece of paper in front of a sign that says rd1
Alt: Daniel Craig as Benoit Blanc, in front of a sun-lit window. He keeps moving a picture from a horizontal to a vertical position and then back again.

You're a GM based in Europe, you identify as a woman or femme, and you have an AP you'd love to run.

We're looking for stories to tell this March - stories just like yours.

It's a perfect match. Come and tell us all about it! tally.so/r/ODQxG7

My assignment for Winona Nelson's SmArtschool class: Choose a favorite book and illustrate a cover for it.

I picked "The Song of Achilles" by Madeline Miller, and my goal was to capture a similar bittersweet tone as the novel has.

#pathfinder2e encounter design rules are great, but even they cannot stand against Fate giving the monk not one, but two crits on an Inner Upheaval.

Y'all better stay tuned to @tumblethrupod.bsky.social to see the aftermath of these fists!

Feels good to monk after what felt like a long while 😎 #pathfinder2e
