I ran the Stonewalkers #Cosmere #TTRPG campaign in #FoundryVTT . My blog post contains a video I made about my thoughts on the experience as well as some questions and answers I've accumulated since posting the video.

Thinking about terms we use when describing somebody as being in the thrall of or sucking up to someone else. Seems almost inevitable if not careful with your words, going to end up hurting somebody. Almost every phrase we have related to that has to do with either homophobia or misogyny.
So far my #AI experience continues to confirm my priors. Yesterday Gemini helped me figure out an NFS share issue not by giving me the right answer, but by giving me an answer that reminded me of forgetting that I could use to fix it. So still needed some expertise to make good use of it.
I know this is the most inconsequential of Internet points, but just discovered that if read, but forgot to update @thestorygraph.com I can back date my updates! No more losing my reading streak when I actually read! As a stats junkie (see my end of year blog posts) this makes me very happy!

@gamesandstuffmd.bsky.social I signed up for the dungeon crawl classics game on free #ttrpg day. 2 questions: 1) for all the games that day do we bring our own dice? 2) for dcc specifically will you guys provide the weird dice?

Many years ago we played an Iron Kingdoms campaign. @badlyshavedpotato.eurosky.social wanted to play a halfling.
There are no halflings in the Iron Kingdoms.
Our GM let Sam know everyone would react oddly to a tiny man, but gave the nod.
I deliberately let him die, and sold his corpse to wizards.
