Kinda down and stressed out about the state of the world and how ineffectual I feel about it all, so show me your pets or your TTRPG characters and something fun about them!

@GenderlessGapAd
This matches up with my theory that you can prove that “dude” is a gendered term by asking a straight man how many dudes he’s slept with. People change their tune real quick sometimes.

Only the ones during the worst part of his cataracts, not his original works. This is the kind of painting he was upset with. Not the above.
Everyone talks about the bathtub scene, but that was just comedy gold. IMHO, the real moment you can see his support is when Percy titles Vex and Travis just grabs her arm because he knows how important it is.
@ImRyanBlue
For the longest time, it’s been normalized that the only emotion men are allowed to show is anger so it’s led to this acceptance that this behavior is normal for men.
@shaenongarrity
@victoriaying
I disagree. He was unhappy because of how the cataracts affected his sight, I don’t think there’s any evidence of anything more than that.
Hey
#Critters
I’m having trouble keeping up with all the NPC names, so I’ve made a little cheat sheet. I left off the various innkeepers, roommates, and one off nobodies. Have I missed anyone that is vital to plot stuff?

Hey everyone, SqueakJay here has never encountered a gatekeeper, so it’s clearly not a problem. We can all just go home now. Thanks bud 👍👍🙄
@GeekEnby
Friendly Neighborhood mode for both Spider-Man games were so much fun and I’m a casual gamer so I was plenty challenged. I can’t imagine how stressful the hardest modes would be. No thanks.
@carebearsyd
On a similar note, it’s far easier for afab non-binary folks to pull fashion from masculine styles than for amab non-binary folks to pull from feminine styles. I hate that I’m basically stuck still just wearing men’s clothes. (Doesn’t help that I have no fashion sense.)
@PatChappatte
This is two days in a row you’ve posted anti-Muslim cartoons when the problem is Christian law makers. There’s no reason to try and spin this on another religion that has nothing to do with the current situation.
@JesseJerdak
Ancestries (as Pathfinder does) or Kin (as Forbidden Lands) would be my choices. Species makes it scientific and that’s going to lead to the same bioessentialism issues we already had with race. They didn’t solve anything with the switch.

Should be an obvious one, but if a person describes themself as fat, don’t respond with shit like “No, you’re beautiful”. Attractive is not the opposite of fat, both can and do exist in the same person.

I get it for foreign language translations, but anything else is gross and unfortunately they’re going to use the tech any way they want if their given an inch
@figaeyda
I’ve never understood why anyone would expect a show to be the same as your home game. That’d be like watching the NFL and being disappointed that a game played in the park between buddies is different.
@MontshoShelby
@epicdndmemes
It’s not about “ambition” it’s about wanting to be able to play a character that is smarter or more charismatic than you are. We don’t expect players to be as strong as their barbarians, why do they need to be as smart as their wizards?

@NevernotDM
Not having it affect you personally is a poor measure of there being an effect at all. One person or one table is not a sample size. It’s barely an anecdote.
@itsginnydi
I didn’t join the game, but I had a GM say he didn’t want people that were “too sensitive” and was adamant that he knew what sex your character was because he was using monsters that would only attack men. Super creepy and I noped out ASAP.
It’s so good that Brennan has the epitome of the term “heart of gold”, because he could be a terrifying person otherwise. He seriously had me doubting whether or not the Lord of the Hells was a victim of his circumstances. Truly brilliant!

“You people”? Who are you talking about? Also why do you have beef with a word? Did “normalized” bully you in high school & give you swirlies? It’s just a word that means something that shouldn’t be or wasn’t normal in the past is now considered normal. How else should I say it?

@estelofimladris
There’s been speculation that if Robbie is just a (longer term) guest, they may swap that part of the intro for whoever comes next. Not a perfect way to do it, but I can see why they may have gone that way.
@SirArmyKnight
If you block that tag you won’t see it. You can’t expect people to not want to be excited as it happens and talk about stuff immediately.

@neilhimself
It’s not specifically Sandman fans, it’s a subgroup of all comic fans. They do the same thing with Marvel comics and the MCU.
@widogastsweb
What they don’t understand is that Vex isn’t greedy, but has a high appreciation for the value of money and how it makes life easier. Specifically not always her own life.
@missgaley
It’s like folks don’t understand the advantage of leaving some small threads open for future one shots. Or that they know their characters and story better than we do. The entitlement is unfortunately strong in some parts of the Critter community.
@STILLKICKINSHIT
It’s a pair of brothers who hunt monsters. There’s a lot of action, mystery, and drama, but there’s also pockets of humor. The fairies/aliens episode is definitely one of the episodes that has lots of humor.
@joindicebreaker
This makes it sound like D&D has teamed up with
@mustangsart
to release these rules instead of her doing them herself and WotC not giving her the time of day (last I checked at least). Don’t give them credit for this.
With the surge of followers it'd be good to repost some resources I made. This is a helpful one to demistify the size of the
#Pathfinder2e
Core Rulebook. It's not a lot of rules, and I was able to cover both play and GMing in my first 2 episodes. Future episodes go more in depth
@thetzechun
I had a couple of bullies try to act friendly with me in our 20s, but without even an acknowledgement of how shitty they were. Like we were already best buds. Nah, fuck that.

I love the idea of Keyleth telling her mom all the VM tales like an excited kid just getting home from summer camp. It’s so wholesome!
