For further context twitter added a button that allows users to generate ai images using existing art posts from artists. It removes glaze and it basically reskins the artwork by using the existing work as a base. Twitter is no longer a safe space for art

In my faith tradition, in a few days we celebrate love itself incarnate in a helpless child — even as too many innocents died at the hands of a cruel tyrant. A displaced family.
And thank God for all those communities & artists who have used the Nativity to underline the parallels of then & now.

I said to my students today how much light and hope they give me, all the more because I’m so aware of the world that they’ve been educated in, I’m and how uncertain the world before them is.
I want so much better for them, for us all.

This year’s graduates went into an absolutely atrocious economy, yes even the STEM graduates with prestigious degrees are having a terrible time, and when I call my senators I think about the world young people are being asked to try and survive in

Thanks for your help! Here’s what I’ve found:
- Girl Underground
- This World Keeps Summoning Heroes
- Many classes, few systems
And:
- DIE is not an Isekai
- DCCarl is not an Isekai
- Any TTRPG could be an Isekai, why bother
- All TTRPGs are obviously Isekai already and I am a stultifying buffoon
- Girl Underground
- This World Keeps Summoning Heroes
- Many classes, few systems
And:
- DIE is not an Isekai
- DCCarl is not an Isekai
- Any TTRPG could be an Isekai, why bother
- All TTRPGs are obviously Isekai already and I am a stultifying buffoon
What Isekai TTRPGs are there? I'm trying to work out why this isn't a more popular genre.
So far we've worked out:
- DIE: the RPG, I suppose
- That one class from BREAK!!
- The Dungeoncrawler Carl TTRPG, I think, but it's not out yet

Said in a discord server with cool folks I would do it here on Bluesky and in English, here is my not-a-review-thread of the TTRPG games I've read during 2025, a book (or more sometimes) a day
I have played some of those games, but not all, and I will write more about those at a later date!

Anime has largely been my primary source of work, but this past month my anime captioning work was nearly non-existent (in large part due to AI). I'd have not made rent if not for the help of content creators who valued this accessibility work & wanted the best for their videos & audience.

I should mention I got to play Seven-Part Pact (7PP) before the Manifesto came out. I played the Faustian.
Although I'm positive this game is way more extensively documented elsewhere, my own documentation is littered with touchpoints of games with which 7PP appears to be in dialog.

I’m so glad that Jay got to talk to @guyintheblackhat.bsky.social & @slstalter.bsky.social & @ckunzelman.bsky.social & more folks this past week AND have lots of downtime to write & think as she polished this piece.
It’s the kind of support I hope we’re able to give to as many guests as we can.
