had a moment today at a restaurant. 2 filipino girls with their non-filipino boyfs i didnt mind it till i heard one, out loud and in filipino tell her friend "he's kind of boring sometimes" and her friend laughing and going "at least they're good in bed hahahaha" meanwhile the boyfs, unaware

the power of spite keeps ppl alive. the oldest living person isnt the one with happiness in their heart and no weight on their soul. those fuckers passed peacefully surrounded by their loved ones. the ones still here are the cranky fucks with too much hate fueling them to keel over.

why do you think necromancy is fueled by negative emotions? hate, regret, despair, pain. darkness has a /sticky/, tacky feeling like tar thats somehow gone bad. contrasted with light which is airy, breezy, warm and like a perfect beach. you wash away at a beach, while the tar clings to the sands

i realized today that being on stream is the most 'me' i'll ever be. i only ever take my adhd medication while on stream. i'm only ever focused and truly thinking while i'm on stream. i'm an existence that's only truly alive on stage.

understand that my fighting style is fueled by a deep sense of shame and self hatred i dont WANT to be a shoto. i dont WANT to be a basic fireball throwing dp smashing tatsumaki kicking bitch but i didnt get to CHOOSE what im good good at i didnt CHOOSE THIS LIFE

i cant stop staring at sf6. i really wanna play Terryyyyy but i cant just keep picking up new fighting games

really good comment on my new video. I get it, but at the same time, hp doesnt allow as much granularity as wounds do. its all about the states right? hp has [has hp] [has 0 hp] and with dnd 4th [has half hp] with wounds, every step is an important change [-1][-2] are entire worlds apart. #ttrpg

you can easily create a game with 'wound triggers' with this. [-1] gains +5 movement [-2] deals +2 damage with Crushing attacks] [-3] deals 15damage to all creatures within 10ft its not as easy in hp. much like how math and physics are KINDA the same, but have different states and purposes

i haven't been able to wipe off the manic pixie dream girl stains on my soul, answer i guess this indie emo sadboy could smell it cause he kept staring at me on the train and even followed me off it for like two blocks all the way to work you can tell he was cause he wore headphones in public

grapefruit is awful. i've tried every possible conceivable way to eat it. a litttle bit of salt here, a little sugar here, smoothie-ing it, boiling it, frying it into a pancake, salad-ing it--! if you THINK you like grapefruit you DON'T, you just like the SUGAR

hey folks! this is somewhat of an announcement! i'm. going to go back to form. within the next year i'll be preparing to *redebut* with a refresher on all aspects/angles with some big project ideas on the horizon hope you keep me in mind!

honestly just had one of the best days of my entire life - excellent stream with friends - played holotrials after - hung out in vc with other friends - went to go see a slasher with a friend and with an EXTREMELY queer crowd - served one of the best drinks and grilled cheeses ever

in my new trpg game i plan on using a mechanic ive called Depletion instead of regular cost systems. essentially, a class of abilities/resources has a dice size associated with it (say a d8). when you use the ability it succeeds so long as it doesnt roll a 1.

since the max size is a d12, that should be sufficient uses right?? cause statistically you'll get at least half the uses d12 = 6 uses d10 = 5 d8 = 4 d6 = 3 d4= 2 but we'll ignore d4 since youll likely fail those. so thats 18 ability uses (assuming i dont have "hard abilities" with like 2d8)

trpg design question: how okay is it if your main dice system and your magic system work completely differently?? currently i have a dice chain d4/d6/d8/d10/d12 thing going on, but my magic system uses a xd6 dice pools is this too big a divergence? should they be aligned/working with each other??

I'm not saying it doesn't HAPPEN, but "all weird indie TTRPGs are a kink thing" is reductive. There is also "designing RPGs to publish your worldbuilding bible", "designing RPGs because you invented a neat dice trick", "designing RPGs to win an argument", and "designing RPGs as an act of self harm".
