@typhlosion I mean, back when it first aired, it still happened, but I feel sorry for kids nowadays

drew @spacecrow 's hoshiko! would you read her a bedtime story? (it's an astrophysics textbook)

@TakeV Also the people who don't let you play an interesting character concept are so terribly boring. A lot of my favourite campaigns were the ones where the GM said "yeah, sounds fun" to everything as long as you had a story to tell with it

Hot take: fuck fretting about game balance during a tabletop RPG.

Tabletop RPGs are not competitive, and you literally have someone there to adjust the game as it happens.

@TakeV @lyncia This is literally something that a group I was in explored when we found an artifact that pretty much launched magicked Kinetic Kill Vehicles from orbit. The story took a heavy turn as we all reacted with horror upon test-firing, and it created a tense diplomatic standoff that shaped how we proceeded through the rest of the game, and we loved it

In the most glorious "fuck you" I have seen in a while, you know the book that Cumberland City Council banned because they're homophobic bigots - Holly Duhig's "A focus on Same Sex Parents"? Well, the publisher, BookLife Publishing, have made a PDF version of the book available for free.

Sure be a shame if it was shared far and wide now, wouldn't it?

Every time you ban a book filled with hope and kindness, and care and love, we will resist.

@NullTheFool I've always wanted to look into it myself too, but I haven't had the time or peace of mind to approach it wholeheartedly

has anyone nipped out to check if Wales is still attached to England?

crap, filters are totally broken for me and I do not want to be hearing about mother's day right now

@mos_8502 seems like we both had awful luck with the aurora tonight, but the memory won't leave me at least

It's so unreal

I couldn't get a shot because my tripod spontaneously became a bipod when I tried to set it up for a long exposure shot (and being on my balcony for too long gives me vertigo), but the aurora is so intense that it's visible *through* the cloud layer, actually powering through the light pollution bouncing off the underside
