Well that was easy, thanks again @jasonbostwick.bsky.social for the suggestion. Here's a non-comprehensive list of VOID 1680 AM Affiliate stations across the globe, sorted by air date: bannerless.games/void-map Each one has a link to their first broadcast.

Hello! I am interested in mapping out the (often fictional) locales of the VOID 1680 AM Affiliate stations, of which there are now well over 100. Anyone aware of an app/site that will let me drop a pin on cities and states, and ideally persist so I can link it for others to explore?

Just got taken out by someone in a discord opining that they were tired of how hypersexual mech anime is and that they recommended “something not gay and totally nonsexual like gundam, bravern, gurren lagann or promare” and I am consumed with the perverse need to see if this is a bit It must be

update: first round of clarification has been obtained "gundam and promare are really good wholesome animes that don't have any kind of agenda or politics in them, and they're nonsexual and safe, no one kisses or mentions sex or attraction"

I couldn't have done it without my amazing team and all the wonderful folks from Brazil who I consulted with. I'm really proud of what we achieved!

this brazilian election news is making me reflect on the time i wrote two stories for @netrunner.nullsignal.games about future brazil and how corporate capture was destroying lives. @anzekay.bsky.social was my editor and narrative director and they did a great job

Lula winning is great for the planet, great for Brazil, and great for people who aren't revanchist assholes everywhere in the world, but let's not forget that it's also going to make some of the worst people on Earth extremely sad and mad. We should enjoy that, as a little treat.

We won not only against Bolsonaro, but against the full force of the USian's Big Techs, Meta, CIA, Trump, the Brazilian right-wing elites, the billionaires' press and more.

for those of you who don't know the Shopping Mall lore my first RPG was Heroes Unlimited (1E) and the group that introduced me played the intro scenario which is a nice standard "supervillains are threatening the shopping mall and the A-List heroes are unavailable, HELP". It's fine. Decent intro.

HOWEVER Since that day, I cannot escape the shopping mall. It keeps coming back to haunt me. It appears in media out of nowhere. It accosts me in the MMO I'm playing. It shows up in TTRPGs without warning. I will never escape the shopping mall.

They take turns DM'ing and so eventually, I've played with them enough, they're like, let's give the new kid a chance, and I get into the rotation and I'm like FINALLY, I HAVE THESE IDEAS and I start off with the mall and just like always, we end with the villains fleeing into the distance

and then next week I start off with "and you're in pursuit as we approach their hideout" and there's just. Dead silence around the table. Dead. Silence. For. A while. Until someone speaks up confusedly "...that's...not how you play the game...take us back..." I was ejected from the group.

this goes on for about 6 weeks before I, a kid, feel confident enough to speak up about "isn't this weird?" and I'm told that no, this is the game, the book tells us that this is the game, so we play the game in the book! The book says we go to save the shopping mall and there's so many things there

Amaranth M
@jazzelves.bsky.social

Now, this isn't a time loop. We level up. We face different supervillains. The mall "changes" and there's different traps and gimmicks and one time there's sharks swimming under the floor and another time tanks take over the go-kart track and ...but it's always the mall

“I’m not writing this [game/novel] to be in conversation with [genre], I don’t want to, it’s not in conversation with the history” Everyone is in conversation with the history of [genre] it comes free with picking up the label and it’s not opt-out after that

Amaranth M
@jazzelves.bsky.social

Clarification: if someone assigns you genre you are of course free to reject that but the moment you want to be counted among [genre] you accept the conversation with history, that’s axiomatic
