I run professional games of Pathfinder 2e using a highly customized personally hosted Foundry VTT instance and Discord. With over 50 positive reviews on SPG.

Some call me a fey GM

If any of that sounds cool to you please check out my games: startplaying.games/gm/schismnav...

One take from a former Larian artist, following my interview with Swen Vincke this morning:
anoxicart.bsky.social anoxicart🍤 @anoxicart.bsky.social · 4d
consider my feedback: i loved working at @larianstudios.com until AI. reconsider and change your direction, like, yesterday. show your employees some respect. they are world-class & do not need AI assistance to come up with amazing ideas.

NEW: I spoke to Larian boss Swen Vincke about their ambitions for their new RPG Divinity, cutting down development time, pressures from Baldur's Gate 3, why BG3 wouldn't have happened without Tencent, how Larian uses generative AI, and much more www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

Screenshot from Reddit page r/PetsWithButtons, user Pamlwell: My cat has started to use “vacuum” as a curse word. Basically the title. | gave him a “vacuum” button because the vacuum is stressful for him and I wanted to be able to clearly communicate that the vacuum was going to happen and let him know “vacuum all done.” He definitely knows what it means because when the vacuum is running he will push “vacuum” repeatedly and also add “nervous” in there too. But now he has started spamming vacuum after I tell him no, like he is using it as a curse word. For example, he will ask for “snackie” when we JUST got done with snackie and I will say “snackie all done" and then he will go spam the vacuum button. Yeah, ok bud, I hear you loud and clear that you feel "vacuum" about “snackie all done.” Or he snuck a lick from the end of my spicy curry dish (I did not authorize this, | looked away for ONE second), I could tell he regretted this (spicy), and then he went and pressed “snackie vacuum.” Yeah, ok bud, that snackie made your mouth feel “vacuum”. I don’t know what I'm asking really, just commiserating. I guess maybe he needs a "mad" button?

So I have a plugin on YouTube that is used to remove clickbait titles etc.

IGN did a terrible preview of ARC Raiders that everyone hates and...

By the way ARC Raiders is awesome!

Spotify is crashing HARD because of the boycott. Their stock dropped 11% in value over the last month. Let’s keep this going!

Tell everyone you know to boycott Spotify. There are plenty of alternatives that don’t run ICE advertisements and screw over artists.

We made it easy at boycottspotify.com.

UK Games Expo promoted a tabletop RPG on Instagram that claimed to use "fully ethical and transparent" generative AI. Everything went downhill once the publisher began responding to criticism.

Been a while, but here's a little commission I had to draw a boxing dragonborn with my own Dragonborn (he's had a little redesign, but I definitely need to tidy it up) What do you think? :)

A friend showed me this screenshot and I started cackling, I was staining my tongue three different colors with OtterPops in 1998 are you fucking kidding me
A meme showing an example of a TikTok trend through two screenshots, one of a swingset captioned "Summer, 1998" and the other of a pot of jam on the stove captioned "Where sweets are baked, not bought." Under both screenshots is someone commenting "loving this new tiktok trend of 14 year olds thinking 1998 was actually the 1800s"

Oh!! It's my birthday!! I would be so appreciative if you could share my work. I still have openings this year if anyone would like to reach out!
Illustration of the fellowship from the Fourth Age actual play. They are at a high altitude looking down into a valley with a river. From left: Theodas (bald elf, many scars, dark beard, golden interlocking armor, dull blue cape); Iairen (elf, medium brown skin, kinky brown hair with undercut and half up style, blue robes, holding a blue palantir); Mistiel (elf with dark brown skin, copper cape, long white box braids half up, golden armour); Eona (human, dark brown long hair with golden scales woven through, leathers and cape, holding a sword); Chicory (hobbit-elfish, lilac dress, pale skin, brown hair in loose waves, holding a wooden staff that crooks over and holds a glowing white stone); Aerlind (elf, dark hair, blue fine outfit, tanned skin, east asian features, holds an astrolabe in one hand). An alabaster gargoyle and a feminine figure dressed in black robes with their faces shadowed by hoods. The pair are within a gothic styled church, standing before an altar on a dais, preaching to spectators behind the POV. Candles cast plenty of light in the room despite the flames being purple, and all the decorations and the architecture is gothic in design. They look as though they are in the middle of performing a sermon in unison Illustration of Dawes 'Rook' Mercar (human, olive skin, short dark hair, blue outfit, green eyes) and Lace Harding (dwarven woman, freckled, pale skin, red hair, leather pants and white shirt). The pair are painted in a pink tint, and the background is barren and monochromatic. They are clutching each other and staring defiantly to the right of the composition. Illustration of a drow standing in front of a large white snake with wings. The drow has long white hair and dark green clothing with copper accents. He holds a dagger above his head with blue magic arcing between the blade and his hand. They are in the Underdark, with blue spores and mushrooms surrounding them.

The reason techbros will never actually understand human intelligence is because understanding wont make you a god. When you truly “get it” you realize…aint no way we are engineering this. They dont want to believe that, and lack the humility to see it. THEY are the ones who believe in magic.

Reminder that humans are barely sentient pond scum. We are all barely literate and even when educated in one area will still be giant idiots in most others.

Be kind to one another. And never assume someone knows what they're on about.
