Content Warning / CW 

Also it is a fabulous tool.

You can add them/remove them/change them on every toot.

You can make jokes.

You can give your toot context.

You can tell it is a thread, or where you are in a thread.

You can derail a thread and give the original poster a chance to not read your ramblings.

You can tell secrets, only interested people will hear.

Content Warning / CW 

Use them, use them a lot.

If you think about 'does this need a CW', then it does.

Things you dont want to show to your kids, your mom, your sister in law, they need CW.

Things that are a phobia, food, blood, body horror, heavy topic, politics, death, health related stuff, upsetting story, they need a CW.

This is also not a 'maybe'.
To keep the place nice, we all need to make an effort.
We need to be deliberate about giving people a chance to opt in on those topic.

Thanks

There's a TTRPG group on here that will auto-boost posts it is tagged in that I thought might be of interest to other TTRPG folk?

It's only small so far but might be a nice way of keeping up with each other.

it's at @ttrpg

(also tagging @host in case it seems relevant)

Hi everyone, coming in for my post - fairly new to tabletop gaming, recently started playing Castle Ravenloft with the wife, late arrival to D&D - pre-COVID also got a chance to play a couple of group sessions on Call of Cthulhu and really loved it, hope to do it again with the guys! 3D Printing enthusiast and licensed seller for fantasy and mecha miniatures, so if you're looking for cool high detailed minis, let me know! Apart from that, hoping to learn heaps on tabletop gaming!

True Myth

Hello all, I'm Adrian! I've been wanting a space to ramble about tabletop with others and big social media sites scare me so here I am!

I'm known for running way too many campaigns at once (mostly DnD 5e but I'm branching out) and writing far more lore than is necessary for all of them.

I also do a lot of homebrewing and stuff, so I'll probably post about that too! My current main project is a Blades in the Dark campaign themed around the game Cultist Simulator!

Hey everyone, I'm happy to have a place to share my board game/RPG musings! Please feel free to interact with me however, I'm just happy to be here and have a sense of community.

I'm super into right now cause I just got it, and I totally (unintentionally) cheated to barely surviving Scenario 1 in Gloomhaven.

I'm hoping to get my ideas on paper for things to make progress, hopefully this gives me a place to share and stay accountable!

Turns out there is an easy way to figure out who's ok with nazi iconography.

that thread about DARVO 

I said earlier that I'd talk about this, so.

It's important to know what DARVO is and how it's used as a tool to bully people into silence/complicity in bad behavior.

DARVO is an acronym. It stands for:

Deny
Attack
Reverse Victim and Offender.

It is a technique that is used by abusive people to cover up their abuse.

It is incredibly common. Knowing how to spot it is key.

DARVO, end of thread, an offer 

If you need someone to talk to who is not going to judge you for your behavior, past or present, but who will instead try to help you untangle your thoughts and get to a point where you are safe and healthy and can begin addressing what's wrong, please feel free to drop me a line. I can't promise a lot of support, but I will do what I can, even if it's simply listening.

discussion of antisemitism 

I spent way too long looking into the question of "is the lich's phylactery antisemitism?"

And then a while longer: "was it malicious, who did it, and when?"

The answers turned out to be "sorta maybe" and "no; not Gygax; somewhere around 2e, but then again with 5e and that was worse."

I'm a white hetero cis-male that lives in the USA.

Using Emacs, I write software, TTRPG session reports, short essays, documentation, open letters, and sometimes a bit of poetry.

Most of the non-software writing is on [my personal writing](takeonrules.com). I also tend to charter up working groups in the FOSS [Samvera](samvera.org) project.

Hi everyone, this is my !

While I do like and play boardgames (recent favorite: ), I'm
mostly here for tabletop wargaming ( and ) and
. After painting a lot at the end of last year, I've now
hit a bit of a slump. So I'm gonna try to regularly post works in progress and other pictures
to help with my painting laziness!

My other masto accounts are @floi (main) and
@floi (Magic the Gathering).

<self plug>

I'd been either too depressed or too busy to notice or crow about it, but there's a second WFRP book out that I got to write for. The Careers in Appendix I are all mine! Quite pleased with the halfling Badger Rider if I do say so myself.

The rest of the book is also really good, packed with lore, cool weapons like specialised dwarf/elf firearms, and generally just expands on the Empire a whole load.

So yeah, I'm a bit pleased with that.
