Any religion can be a religion of peace. Even mine. My beliefs don't become violent until I am encroached. As it stands, not one of you who isn't part of my faith is condemned to an eternal torment, nor are you required to join. Ever.

If you ask, I'll simply introduce you to it via books, discussions, good laughs and possibly good food and drink.

Should there be someone who feels some kind of way so badly that I'm not part of their ideology (religious, political, who are we kidding, aren't they really the same now?) that they must force it upon me,

For those of you who might be curious (If not, feel free to keep scrolling, it's cool) The Havamal is one of my favorite books in the world. The wisdom dispensed in the more grounded, first set of verses is like advice given from parent to child and full of substantive lessons. among them are verses that reflect quotes like the quote "This life is tough. It's even tougher if you're stupid." which I think we can all agree on no matter what religious, political, racial, gender or income lines that have been drawn. Primarily, I want to focus solely on

While I upload to other platforms, I wanted to say something that's been on my brain. There's no FauxSR.

@Wizards_DnD forced the hands of many creators in the industry after their attempted hamstringing OF the industry, including indies.

To keep themselves from being sued, many chose, rightfully so, to create entirely new systems suited to their games and settings inspired by older rule sets.

Ascending & Descending AC, Random encounters, reactions, surprise, etc are all part of those rule sets and thus are suited to GM/Table preferences

Just wanted to put this out there. Some of y'all know I'm Heathen in my faith but while I'm here I'll post my divination videos, maybe the occasional shot of the altar, maybe even talk about some books I've read. I wake up, I shit, shower, scrape the fangs, pull on my clothes and head to work. I do my work, I come home. Might eat and play some games, do some more work on projects that I'm currently working on, fuck around on Twitter, watch some shit, hit the bed and do it all over again.

When that paycheck comes in, bills get taken care of, groceries

A quick message because I think it's necessary to say. Might be a thread. We'll see.

Creators in the #TTRPG hobby.

Make the games. Stop attacking customers. Stop putting real world politics or identity garbage in those games. Stop fostering division between your audience. You are to blame for any losses you have. The most successful businesses make good products that people want to purchase. They improve those products and people will buy them again and again depending on some variables but I'll give you a couple of examples.

Made this point last night while talking with @PaddyohCakes, when it comes to @leylinepress, they make stuff for #Mothership and they're indie. Okay, had they acted professionally, I probably would be there and their company might have even made my #MailCall thread. That being said, they did not act professionally, nor with any ethics. LP seems to forget that, when someone is freelance, they take work wherever it comes, whenever it comes. That's it. They don't get to say "You can't do work on these properties or with these people."

Might have gotten

Let's teach shall we? First Lesson. No one asked for your opinion. Second lesson. No one asked for your approval. Third lesson. No one asked for your permission. Fourth. The "demographics" of which you speak don't purchase or play. The demographics that do will call our shit Image behavior from companies when they display shit behavior. Fifth and final, the conduct from Leyline Press was unprofessional and was the best ad for LoTFP.

All they had to do was keep it in house and leave it at that...professionally. If anyone will be drowning, it's LP, not

The absolute best thing about #TTRPGs is that I love to read. Love it.

I love reading stories about all these characters that get to do all these great things. I love some of the supporting characters that, were it not for them, the hero or heroine would not be able to overcome the great odds that face them and rise to greatness and become memorable legends.

Now, here's the absolute best thing about it all. I get to be at least one of those characters for a little while and when I look back on that session or campaign I get to say, "Yeah, I did that."

One of @trolllordgames unsung RPGs is Victorious and, for fans of classic literature, this game is seriously bangin'. In this world, Tom Sawyer, Jekyll & Hyde, Jack The Ripper, Sherlock Holmes, Huckleberry Finn and many others all exist in the world

trolllord.com/tlgstore/#!/Vi… I picked it up during one of the $10 because I thought "Okay if I don't like it, I'm only out ten bucks." but I was pleasantly surprised when I opened it up and looked into it. Still Siege Engine goodness so the only thing you're getting acquainted with is the period and setting

Okay, let's break this down. This is Rumor Control and These Are The Facts.

Starting with this shutdown tactic of a tweet (Got a screenshot in case anyone wants it and are suddenly unable to view the initial tweet. Let's go. There's a lot to unpack here so I'm going to start with why the initial tweet is a shutdown tactic. First, we need to visit the blog after reading the opening about this not being "The Satanic Panic" and we find this in the very opening of the entire thing

Okay, so here's the thing about the #GunControl and #MentalHealth argument NOW coming from the hardline republican side that's coming out in the wake of the latest mass-shooting. Let me start with the points I can agree on with reasonable voices. Let's do this 🧵 1. Teachers should have the OPTION of arming themselves and training.

2. Schools should be able to facilitate time for teachers who wish to exercise said option.

3. Schools need to be posting signs (even if it's just one teacher) that the teachers are armed, trained and ready

Okay so final thoughts on #TheNorthman. The attention to detail was amazing. Where it played on the Heathen spirituality was also accurate. It wasn't organized (as we understand it today.) The focus on Amleth, Olga and Amleth's quest for revenge was nothing short of awesome. Fight scenes were fuuuuuucking bruuuuuutal. There were moments that made ME recoil and that's no easy task. Jeez! Robert Eggers absolutely indulging the hell out of his need to provide cinematography porn wasn't out of vain indulgence alone, it fit. It fit really well.

I have to say ...this. Not every table is going to be for me. That's something I get going in. Not every game is going to be for me. The way someone DMs a game, they built the world, they did the prep, they went through the headache. Their Table, Their Rules. If I don't like them it's something out of my control. You know what I CAN control though? How I handle it. I've left tables before. I didn't interrupt. I just bided my time until the end of the game and informed the DM that I thanked him for his time and effort but I don't think I can continue

Listen, I'm going to share two very unpopular opinions but all I'm asking is that you hear me out.

We're gonna have to make a hard decision here. Do you really want government involved with healthcare or not? If you do, then anti-abortion activists need to get snuggly with government-mandated interventions. Each side claims to be White-Knighting for the other. Those on the Right claim they're saving the lives of children, those on the left claim they're saving everyone. Both are screaming for government to solidify their positions. Fact.

Know one thing. At my funeral I will request that @iglooproducts make my coffin. I will be walled off in the middle with about three feet of cooler all around me with all manner of drinks on ice around me. When you come to see me, grab a drink. Drinks on the stiff. There had better fucking well be music and laughter. My detractors? If they show, you may abuse them as you please. Treat them without care or mercy. In fact, if you overdrink and decide to hurl on one of them, that also gets my seal of approval. You are hereby encouraged to tell

I'm going to put this into a thread because it's needed. I don't know how long it will be so grab a snack and something to drink. You might need it.

Simply Put, David Is 100% Correct Here.

Sadly, David Is 100% Correct Here. Allow me to illustrate Go ahead. Look at it. Take your time. Really take it in. There's a point that will be made and it's high time some of you got this. It's called a peony, by the way. Seriously, take it all in, the texture, colors, everything.

Another thread, If you want to read, great, if not, that's okay too but here goes.

I'm going to surprise you with something. Yes, I own this. This is mine. There are many others like it but this one is mine, as is said in Full Metal Jacket: So why am I bringing that up along with my Kindle laying next to it? The answer is simple. It is to make a point, and it's one I've made many times. I Do Not Support Book Burning/Content Bans.

It's my understanding that, for many of you following me,

Why I stopped listening to Alex Jones (Warning, this may be a thread)

1. He was ripping off Q posts and got caught doing it.

2. Jesus Rafael Quintana In A Bowling Alley, Alex, do your guests EVER get to speak without you running them over?

3. This is the big one (Next Post) During one particular episode, he went into his usual hysteria and, by that time, I was already burned smooth out on it.

But then he starts sobbing. I mean he turns into a blubbering mess. I'm on my way to work and I stop because this was new to me. I'd never heard this before.
