if i'm completely honest i've been thinking off and on for at least a year now that my life might be improved by letting ttrpgs be a thing of the past for me, something i used to love before i got to know the community, and then moved on from

You can also find art on my ko-fi like this set I call Arsenic Wallpaper ko-fi.com/s/d07cf0c344

now that i've settled into my new job i'd love to join/start a new ttrpg group, but every time i think about it i panic about the idea of trying to sift through all the storytellers, and what that would require logistically since the words no longer mean what they mean

there's a very special Type Of Guy who believes that if you disagree with them then you must have just misunderstood their position (which, if you examine that, functionally means they can never be wrong) this Type Of Guy is very common in the improv/storytelling corners of the ttrpg space

Whoa whoa wow! Blazing Hymn Ultimate Collection is now available on Ko-Fi! This collection includes everything I've ever written or will ever write for my most popular game! If you love high-octane high-drama tactical anime action, this might be the game for you! ko-fi.com/s/e81353413b

not 15 minutes ago i saw a thread where someone was vehemently against "gameplay" which they were apparently defining as "intentionally designing a game to be too complex to comprehend, in pursuit of enabling discovery" so yeah i guess we're doing this 🙃

if you see this, i implore you to post a pic from your device without context

did u know they make oreos with more oreos inside

and here's my ttrpg hot take: it's not collaborative storytelling either, it's roleplay-gaming if you want to construct scenes, plan arcs, and use narrative timing instead of cause-and-effect to resolve outcomes, leave my table and write a book (which would be rad as hell, i'm rooting for you)

I'm now at $165/$2000, needed in the next few days. If I cannot get this covered then I will absolutely be homeless. if you can help, please do, and if not, please share. Even $10, $20 helps! #MutualAid paypal.me/RolandBoshnack Venmo: @Roland-Boshnack GFM: gofund.me/4c4a38ff

support your local farmers they spend all day plowing so you don't have to

Push back against revisionist history. Don't let them pretend that people like me don't exist. I've been faithfully tracking my TTRPG characters' encumbrance all along.

#ttrpg sky, i'm almost out of new games i would like to run. shout out your new favorite in the replies. either i've run it or never heard of it -- so anything's fine.

"the bigger they are, the harder they fall" (me explaining to my ttrpg players why they all took 8d6 shockwave damage after they already won the boss fight)

I hate when people talk about things like playing games or making art exclusively in terms of either offering escapism or fighting for a better world. It's fine for games, art, etc to do those things, but it's not what they're fundamentally *for*. 1/🧵
