Hot take: "First they Came for the Jews" might be my least favorite poem and seeing it pop up on every social media timelines every day makes me so disgusted. We know who goes first. We know how many minorities it has to go through before white goyim give a shit. Not to mention...

maybe it's a fun time to switch to @librofm.bsky.social for audiobooks. Select the indie bookstore you'd like to support, listen away. Comp prices to aforementioned jerks

ok hear me out
it's a ttrpg
but it doesn't have a character creator
instead, you have to bring in a character from a different game, ideally one that ended early due to scheduling conflicts
& now you have all these little misfits from all different games and they're all together now

Deepen your themes by mirroring them across characters.

Let one character embody ambition and another caution. Or have two characters approach love from opposite angles.

✨ Contrasting perspectives make your story richer and more layered.

TTRPGs means NPCs. Fun to voice!

Let's meet our party who just made it to their BBEG and lost. Tonight we start with Theodore "Mop" Thompson, our Warlock, being offered a new deal. How does Mop start over when he has the chance? New Episode tonight at 6 PM PST!
While adventuring, no one comes out unchanged. No one knows that quite like Theodore “Mop” Thompson.

❄️Climb to the Top❄️ continues every week
• Sunday - they are offered a chance to turn back the clock
• Monday - they face their choice
All at 6PM PST

Pay attention to character wants vs. needs.

What they want drives the plot, but what they need creates the emotional core.

The gap between these two creates internal conflict and a powerful arc.

Easy for writers, but GMs should discuss both with players to find depth.

If the books you love are even remotely political, buy physical copies of those books like yesterday. Don't rely on Kindle/Audible. It won't take much for Jeff Bezos to have books removed from Kindle/Audible. Even the ones you "own." Because you never think they will, until they do 📚 #BookSky

Why are daggers such bad weapons in RPGs? They should be the best weapons in close combat. An unexpected dagger in someone should have a really good chance of killing them, not roll 1d4 damage and maybe double it for surprising them.

I want deadly daggers!
