Here it is! My first 'published' #DnD adventure for a 3rd level party. While run originally for my players in @MonteCookGames #Ptolus setting, it is written to be readily adapted for a city setting. Retweets & constructive feedback welcomed! #dnd5e snappingbranch.com/post/cont…
Honestly the same vocal minority who brought down #TheAcolyte because its wasn’t ‘their star wars’ are trying to bring down The Rings of Power. In both cases they neither care for nor understand the story, they are just cunts. I hope @amazon does not capitulate like @Disney

If you ever have imposter syndrome or think you're not smart enough to get where you want to be, remember that this man who thinks Labour can simply "scrap Brexit", has a PhD and was on the Bank of England's Monetary Policy Committee.

Perhaps JD Vance’s fascination with time & how long people have been around has something to do with him being created in a vat of green slime, having no knowledge of this conception, his age, or how he even got here? Not sure he even knows what a donut is - has he tried one yet?

I can’t believe Disney has cancelled The Acolyte after one series. This was some of the most promising SW viewing since early Mandalorian & Andor. It’s also just fuckin cruel to the fanbase to dangle so many threads & characters in front of us. #RenewTheAcolyte

But also @Disney what message are you sending? That if enough homophobes, racists and incels shout about things on the internet & review bomb online you’ll give in?! You’ll forever be treading water and creating bland content for fear of angering a mob.

#MicroTreks “You can be anything,” Q says. “Why play humanoid?” Odo folds his arms over his chest. “Why do you?” Q’s brow raises then he leans back in his chair, smirking. “I’ve learned to be a pyrithian bat, a vaporous cloud of light,” Odo says. 1/8

Critical Role and a lot of anime ARE fantasy. The genre has expanded a lot since the 1970s. I'd say the D&D players who are big into logistics, and erroneous ideas of historicity and realism are the ones who may be less into fantasy and better served by historical fiction.
Over time, I've come to the conclusion that many d&d players, or more specifically, newer d&d players, aren't really fans of fantasy. Many are anime fans or critical role fans. They may have seen lotr or got, played wow, etc but they're not really fans of the genre itself.

The NPC bit is Musk basically confirming that he views some (most?) people as expendable, in the worst possible way.
A wall of negative headlines was so predictable. They’re such NPCs 🤣🤣 All this does is drive even more people to listen to the conversation themselves and realize how much the legacy media lies to them!

Agreed, truth shouldn’t be suppressed. Which is why it’s best not to dump it in a landfill site, pour over it a slurry of half-truths, misinformation, insults, blatant lies, random speculation and conspiracy, and then above that stinking mess type the word ‘True.’
Freedom of speech is the bedrock of democracy. If the truth is suppressed, it is impossible to make an informed voting decision. The degree to which freedom of speech is being undermined around the world is extremely alarming.

Today, Celine Dion’s management team and her record label, Sony Music Entertainment Canada Inc., became aware of the unauthorized usage of the video, recording, musical performance, and likeness of Celine Dion singing “My Heart Will Go On” at a Donald Trump / JD Vance campaign rally in Montana. In no way is this use authorized, and Celine Dion does not endorse this or any similar use. …And really, THAT song?

“I read [Harry Potter]… it seemed a lively kid's fantasy crossed with a "school novel", good fare for its age group, but stylistically ordinary, imaginatively derivative, and ethically rather mean-spirited.” The literary queen Le Guin was warning us about JK Rowling back in 2004

Steve Jobs email he sent himself 13 months before he died. Whenever I re-read this, I regret waiting so long to have read it again.
