So my friend and fellow trans coworker invited me to some queer meetup at a bar in the next city over.

And just.. idk how to explain how, on multiple levels, this is utterly unappealing to me.

I don't really drink and bars aren't that comfy without someone I'm really comfortable there to be with.

I don't need more irl friends, queer or not, because of future plans to move.

I have a lot to do still for that move.

It's a long drive there and back and I'm trying to save any money I can.

I think what really got me was how she thought that because this was a queer event I'd be excited to go but idk.. yes I'm a trans woman but I'm in a weird spot in life.

I'm not looking for a irl community or anything because I'm not staying here. Once I move then yeah I'd love to go to some queer meetup event with my GF together.

It just makes me sad because I know I'm disappointing her. I'm just thinking ahead about my life away from here and everything I do is about making that a reality.

If there was one thing I could retroactively erase from existence in the entire history of the tabletop RPG medium it would be the concept of using "perception checks" or "investigation rolls" or any similar mechanics in dungeon-crawling RPGs to determine if the PCs can see a detail in their environment.

"A DC 15 Perception roll is required to see..." "A DC 20 Investigation roll will reveal..." no. Shut up. If the thing is in plain sight or can be perceived with the senses by simply existing in this space and taking a look around then the PCs are perceiving it and describing it to the players is part of your role because you are their source of sensory information about the in-game world.

And if it's not in plain sight or deliberately concealed in some way then they simply DON'T perceive it but can reveal it by narratively interacting with their environment until one of their actions undoes whatever's concealing it, not rolling a die to see if they can Perceive Hard Enough to reveal it.

Okay I know I said I was on a break from “D&D culture bad” posting but someone in a TTRPG facebook group I’m in got called a snob for merely suggesting to a “fellow” aspiring TTRPG *DESIGNER* to check out games other than Dungeons and Dragons Fifth Edition lmaoooooooooooooooooooooo literally Marvel fans but 10x worse

Okay, here’s an interesting question. What hobbies do you guys have that wouldn’t be apparent from your online presence? Like something you spend a lot of time doing or thinking about beyond whatever you post on your blog.

tired of posts that are like "why should i go to therapy when the reason i'm upset is because of SOCIETY" and it's like

yeah. have you ever heard of a locus of control. you don't have control over Society but you do have control over your reaction to it
