Death is often subtle
I had a dream where I was stuck in bed, and this guy was taking care of me. Kept bringing me soup. He’d talk and it’d sound like very soft mumbling from another room. I couldn’t always understand the words, but it made me feel warm. Calm.

I asked his name and he said “Oh I’m the grim reaper.”

Simply. YES.
Vancian magic system just does not fit 5es intended design goals, and the conflation of character level and spell level is obtuse. - Dragonbane's point based system is sooo much better, also offering verisimilitude between classes, and offering more interesting choices in combat while intuitive

Haha I was trying to watch this the other day and I kinda just even up tuning out for this reason
Apologies for yucking someone’s yum, but this part of the video—specifically where they are laughing about how scary a rules-as-written Kaiju (Tarrasque) is for max level super heroes—is just a huge turn off for me

Wow this is beautiful design! I love the subtle but wonderful creatures, thanks for sharing!
To give some context, here's some of the art I've made for Alma Pulveris in the past. This is asemic writing. There are more like this in my Ko-Fi but I'll probably post them here eventually. #osr #worldbuilding

I've been really loving the style and layout of some of the #mothership adventure modules.

What other indie/small-publisher adventures for any ruleset capture that unique style?

I've been LOVING Monolith lately, have an intermittent group that is going through Gradient Descent using Monolith. Gets really hard to differentiate between the name of the game and the BBEG 😂
I like the “Heavy” and “Unwieldy” item tags in Monolith. They pair well with the Basic OSR Principles that Yochai Gal posted the other day

Oh my goodness, THANK you! I've been mulling this over for quite some time. I personally LOVE OSR exploration and emergent narratives! Improv roleplay activates my neurons like CRAZY!
I dont like the term "story game" because that should refer to things like storycubes or other "story creation" games, not roleplaying games. I prefer the term narrativist, especially because "narrativist osr" isnt a contradiction and god knows we see enough of stuff like that

I have republished Yochai’s OSR feed, which I was the co-moderator of. Should be working exactly as it was before.

This is a powerful quote “I suppose the "aha!" moment for me came when I saw that most of the people promoting this bad behavior were folks I did not know, who are themselves not even OSR creators! And then I realized: I don't care about any of this.” - sums up need for communities vs public square

Daydreaming about...

...how reincarnation works.

...the Solar System as a starting Traveller setting that sprawls and gets more and more strange.

...making Into the Odd-likes for some of the D&D settings that I'm interested in.

I was a Black child in the 1970s. Here's what I watched on PBS.

Vegetable Soup, a children's show featuring live and animated segments emphasizing storytelling, ethnically diverse perspectives, and empathy. The music was fantastic.
