The most powerful phrase in the TTRPG community isn't "look at me", it's "look at them." Use your platform to point people toward creators doing amazing work. Be a connector, not just a content creator.
GOOD THREAD but only for people who like to be cheered up and don't just like to feel doom 24/7 coz it makes them feel smarter.
Hi Rev! Plans continue brewing for the Halloween stream of my horror movie TTRPG Iron Taste Of Blood, but I also have loads of other games out there, with a variety of themes, from starship engineers to minimum-wage temps saving the day.

Yooo don't fucking do this. It costs absolutely nothing to keep your mouth shut about things from other cultures, especially about creative works with layers upon layers of nuance and symbolism. Unless you want people talking about how mid your mom's tater tot casserole is, shut the fuck up, Kyle.
Nothing like a bit of random buccaneer affirmation!
It's true! I have witnessed it also.
It's really amazing how much of the effort to retaliate is focused on people who're like, "Here are the things he said." As if Charlie Kirk's legacy cannot stand real scrutiny.

i used to think blocking people was some sort of weakness, like i couldn’t handle people being mean/ugly/whatever, but i have learned that i shouldn’t *have to* handle it!! I LOVE BLOCKING PEOPLE ON THE INTERNET!!!
Your random NSFW observation of the day, in case it comes in handy for you: You can very loudly sing "eat my shit* you fucking asshole**" to the tune of Ninja Turtles. * Replace with your 1 syllable nastiness or body part of choice ** Replace with your 2 syllable insult or vulgarity of choice
🏳️⚧️ Trans Pride Surrey With the company of @chilterntravels.uk and Trans Pride Surrey, we marched through the streets of Epsom, including a pit stop at the suffragette statue. A very solid turnout for a town of this size, and a good selection of items in the maker's market.
Mobs of humans also chase cheese down a hill. I've seen footage!
For things like TTRPGs, it'll be printable & fillable character sheet, a rulebook, etc. Each separate file is a different download. For projects with only 1 fileuploaded, I think if you've included it in a group bundle sales of the bundle might not be counted as sales of the individual item?
I imagine Keir Starmer and his pals will also point to today as a reason to adopt ever-more racist policies, but many more trans people and allies protesting is of course *not* a reason to stop the EHRC's transphobic guidance.
I get the feeling in about three months this woman will have a massive online spat with Riley Gaines and it'll be over speaking engagement fees.
Today my job includes standing outside a tourist destination on a busy dock, dressed like a pirate, yelling about their offering. It's less terrible than I expected, and I've been here 2 hours and had 6 people take a photo with me or of me. And 4 of them asked permission!
Today, after five days of rehearsals, I'm performing in two workshop sharings of a full-length musical at Nottingham Playhouse! It's been a truly liberating experience to work in a majority disabled space, exploring stories that matter to us. Wish us luck that our industry guests see the vision 🤞

Ooh, slasher horror is fun! I made a game based on the IronCore SRD with a similar theme (and have a stream planned for Halloween). Do you have other themes for the system in mind, with cinematic escapes? (Indiana Jones style movies feel like a natural match)
NEW Moon Gate - and a brand new game system! Dodge! is a simple dice system of cinematic escapes, and the first game scenario will be a fun 80s slasher camp flick in Camp Blood Moon! The core rules will be themed to the scenario for an easy learn-to-play setting! www.kickstarter.com/projects/moo...

I think it's important to remember that youtube videos aren't magical. If you are radicalised into fascism on the internet it isn't because people mind controlled you, it is because the arguments of white supremacists were appealing to you.
Oop.
I know a million marched against the invasion of Iraq but that was a single event...the pro-Gaza marches have, multiple times, been absolutely colossal. You only have to look at the numbers weekend after weekend to know which way public opinion has truly gone.
At some point there should be some chat about the fact that pro-Palestine protests have regularly had hundreds of thousands of participants and rallies with names like Protect the West (dying of cringe) as far as I'm aware NEVER crack more than a few thousand.
So how are all my former gifted and talented kids who used to read several books a day and now rot their faculties doomscrolling while ignoring a TV show doing tonight
Listen to me. You have to watch The Dark Crystal Age of Resistance. You have to see these fucking puppets dude. There's a puppet show within the show where the puppets are using puppets and it fuckin rips shit. The skeksis are so shitty and I love them and they are all my friends.
This week has been a long year. But you know what to do. 😍
It's been a long week. Rest here, weary creative. You deserve it.

After every shooting for the past several years, a legion of rightwing online influencers immediately starts claiming - with no evidence - that the shooter was trans. It is not plausible that someone who covers crime for one of the nation's largest news organizations could be unaware of this

I feel really unseen currently. I don't know if folks see my posts, but I'm disabled, I don't make enough with my current job to survive, and my situation is becoming more dangerous in the current climate. I'm doing everything I can, but I cannot survive without help. 💠 ko-fi.com/therosecleric
Pro tip for creator threads: Spend more time commenting than promoting. The goal isn't to get sales from other creators it's to build relationships that lead to opportunities you can't even imagine yet.
Pet parrots which typically live alone (whilst those in the wild live in large flocks) were given the technology to call each other. They would use it for up to three hours a day, and developed favourite friends 💔 on.ft.com/3K05vhS
Hey friends. As some of you know, it’s been a really rough couple of years for both myself and Becca. I’ve been out of a full time job since December of 2023, and Becca was Trump’d out of her job shortly after his inauguration. www.gofundme.com/f/save-our-t...
Every WSJ journalist and other journalist who pushed the lie that the shooter was pushing "transgender ideology" is as bad as journalists who pushed anti-Jewish libel in Nazi Germany. Nazis are openly calling for violence against trans people under the assumption the shooter was trans.
It's actually funny how much everyone has forgotten about "violent video games cause violence". It was a massive talking point for years, and now we have an assassin who put a video game meme on the bullet and no one is even suggesting it.
Nancy Mace acting on disinformation that the shooter was trans: goes off on tirade against "trannies" Nancy Mace when the actual shooter is a Christian white man: "he's just a poor lost boy, let us pray for him."
way too many outlets reporting "Hey fascist! Catch!" without the "Up arrow, right arrow, 3 down arrows" part that was all the same inscription because its a very specific video game reference to Helldivers 2 all we know about Tyler Robinson right now is he is terminally online

The real issue isn’t left vs right. It’s not white vs black. It’s not citizen vs immigrant. It’s not gay vs straight. The real issue is that a lot of powerful people have a vested interest — and a lot of money invested — in dividing us, and it’s working.
If you support Palestinian rights we are extremely close to our goal!! less than 5k to go. please pitch in, my family in Gaza is large and we all need to eat, get medicine and survive the genocide & starvation . Help us evacuate to safety we beg you donate 50 its mean a life to us 🙏🏽🙏🏽

Queer liberation requires the total destruction of white supremacy, fascism, settler colonialism, and capitalism. Rainbow capitalism will not save us.
Next time you're at a virtual con or event, actually use the chat. Ask questions during panels. Participate in breakout rooms. Lurking is safe but it won't build the relationships that change your creative life.

The leaked Trump plan for Gaza comes directly from the US playbook for Native Americans. The plan calls for the US to take over the Gaza strip and to hold it in trust for development. Gaza’s residents would be encouraged to leave “voluntarily.”
Reviews and ratings do so much to help sales, and mean so much to indie #ttrpg creators! So, if you've been putting it off, consider this a sign to write one now 💕 And, if you've already done that, maybe stick a post of socials, word of mouth is an incredible help

Yes, this. You aren’t changing minds, you are merely participating in engagement farming which benefits them more than it does you. It also sends an unfortunate message that their ideas are worth treating with *respect* and therefore socially *acceptable*. It suggests they offer a *legitimate* pov.
Something people often forget is that the majority of political assassinations are done for weird ass reasons by people with incoherent politics. Like...they couldn't figure out the Trump assassin's motive. Or even Lee Harvey Oswald reasons. Someone tried to kill Reagan to impress Jodie Foster.

Bluesky's moderation is a joke, seemingly pushed by a right-wing mass reporting campaign to suspend their users over nothing, but it doesn't occur to them that those right-wing fascists want this site shut down/gone, and Bluesky is gladly cutting its own legs out from under itself to help them.

I guess I woke up cranky but the story here is basically "young protestors against inequality who toppled their government with startling efficacy are now meeting virtually with far more representation than an irl meeting would provide, and it's difficult," with a layer of incredible condescension.
