So when it comes to layout for DIY #rpg stuff like #houserules #onepagedungeon s, and #zines a control panel like approach seems to be the way to do it:

Has anyone done a #latex package for this yet?

You know what's "cringe"?
Ridiculing people for their interests being "not age appropriate".
Or for what they're wearing.
Or for anything else that doesn't harm anybody.

It's finally time to officially announce #TalesFromTheFediverse Volume 4! Submissions are open now until August 8th, the stories themselves are due on November 7th for a November 14th release! If you're a writer and/or artist and want to be featured, DM me with your ideas for stories or covers!
The rules are below, but just to be a bit more concise (these rules were made a year ago), just make sure your submissions don't violate the .ART CoC!
And as always, boosts are appreciated!

(Racists, Nazis, TERFs, homophobes and other shitty people can fuck right off though!)

New #introductions time!

I'm kind of a mess -- but a friendly one!

I'm an author, a #narrator, and a moon #witch in training.

I talk a lot about my familiar, Merlin the cat.

I post a lot of #writing and #microfiction for free -- mostly cute creatures and monster romance and #cats.

I toot awkward true stories in #VicorvaStorytime

I love #reading #books #gaming #TTRPG #boardgames

I'm the eldest of seven siblings and nearly all of us are queer.

I'm very awkward but do say hello!

I wrote a book!

I am racist. In my core. I struggle with it daily.

I have done very racist things to POC's faces and in private. I have supported racist systems and people. None of that is ok. I am not able to apologize or absolve myself of many of these things. I have to carry them with me.

I am not perfect, and I never will be. But I'm looking for concrete ways in which to make change and trying to do it more quietly and not be performative.

You are going to fuck up. You're going to hurt ppl. You have to embrace this fact. It's not ok to make POC do labor for you and be your personal confessional. It's not ok to cling tighter to your biases when called out.

White supremacy tells us that people are either good or bad, but that is a lie. Your worth is not determined by your mistakes. But you have to be willing to own them and commit to doing better.

Feel free to hit me up if you want to talk about white people bullshit.

I'm starting to turn my notes into the final text for Blazko, my upcoming game about strength in diversity (and killing nazis).

I'm hoping I will have a first version sometime in the next two weeks, but we'll see.

I wouldn't really call the game Forged in the Dark but a couple of details are certainly inspired by Blades in the Dark.

So... I bought 10 dice, for 10€... to play a game that is free to download.
I fell like something is not quite right here.

I wrote a post on OpSec, addressed at leftists and activists. It's pretty 101 but I think it could be useful for a lot of people out there. It's also only the first part of a series I'm planning to write on the subject.

your honor, the defendant stands accused of three counts of tomfoolery and felony cringe evasion. I would like to submit this Epic Fail Compilation vol. 27 as evidence to the court.

@mxfraud not a tabletop rpg but the character Tellah in final fantasy 4 loses stat points in everything other than wisdom as he levels up; representing how he is really wearing himself out by adventuring at his immensely old age.
