I dont care who got elected in america but it has been truly horrendous to see the vitriol with which american vote blue liberals have turned against the victims of US imperialism as soon as that circus of an election got over. This isnt anything new btw ive seen so much of this behaviour in the lead up to this election, but it really is mind boggling to see just how many of you really think that you can partake in blaming your "progressive" candidate's failure on victims of literal genocide and still call yourselves "leftists".

genuinely one of the saddest parts of this new era of the internet is how hard it is to rick roll someone now. with people's attention spans shortening so much, they wouldn't even get through the first few bait seconds before clicking off the video. like i saw a comment that ended with "btw i made all of this up" and the replies kept treating it so seriously because none of them finished the entire 4 sentence comment. and We're no strangers to love You know the rules and so do I (do I) A full commitment's what I'm thinking of You wouldn't get this from any other guy I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling Gotta make you understand Never gonna give you up Never gonna let you down Never gonna run around and desert you Never gonna make you cry Never gonna say goodbye Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

scurvy has got to have one of the biggest disease/treatment coolness gaps of all time. like yeah too much time at sea will afflict you with a curse where your body starts unraveling and old wounds come back to haunt you like vengeful ghosts. unless☝️you eat a lemon

many of us do. it's difficult not to succumb to the feeling of not being able to do something and being completely helpless. and while it's true that individually none of us can change the world, we do have the power together to make an impact, especially on the lives of individual people around us.

instead of succumbing to feelings of doom and despair about the election, the climate, or any other ongoing crises, please consider donating to ibrahim. that is a real way to have a real impact on someone's life.

ibrahim is only 15 and is trying to raise funds to not just help him and his family escape the genocide, but also to survive in the current conditions. he has been displaced and exposed to countless horrors time and time again. the least we can do is attempt to help him.

please, if you can: match my donation of €10. if you can't spare that, spare €5 or even €1. if you really have nothing to give, share this post. don't turn away from suffering. this is your chance to do something.

So there are several species of frogs that have evolved to be so small that their vestibular balance system doesn't work well and I'm sorry but it's the funniest thing to watch them try to jump.

It pains me to see any human being to be living this way, to struggle to survive, to not know if you shall eat or live or die the next day, to be living in constant fear and waiting for some kind of relief. If it hurts you to see someone suffer like this as well, as I'm sure it does, imagine how much worse it must feel to those living through it! It hurts my heart, and I want to help, but I can't do it alone! My Palestinian friends needs your help! And you can help! Together, we are not powerless!

The Al-anqar family (who is vetted & #4 on this spreadsheet by gazavetters) needs our help to get to safety with their family. Thanks to the generosity of kind people, such as those on tumblr, they have made it to €30,608 of their €50,000 goal! However, they still have €19,392 more to raise in order to reach their dream of safety and security, and you can help them do it, even if it's simply through a reblog and/or a small donation. Every little bit counts!

Someone in my fb chicken group has a little bearded bantam that likes to sit on shoulders so they did a pirate photoshoot and I am losing it

I just saw a post about Rocky Horror that mentions "the writer has been on estrogen longer than you have been alive". True. He's also gone on record saying that trans women aren't women and has supported TERFs. Multiple times.

Can we please stop pretending that being queer makes you immune to perpetuating misogyny & transmisogyny? He's nonbinary and transfem, yes, but he is still punching down on trans women. That's not okay.

Yes, Rocky Horror is a piece of queer culture. That doesn't mean it isn't transmisogynistic. Transmisogyny is everywhere in our society, including in queer culture. There are other pieces of old queer media you can latch onto, I promise.

Ryuutama

A treat for the Dragon likers in our audience, wait til Warrenguard for some more though

Genre: Exploration! Touchstones: Ghibli Films, Trail of Oregon (not ACTUALLY but its a good comparison point)

What is this game?: Ryuutama is a game about travelling... somewhere! you're not big damn heroes though, just merchants and artisans

How's the gameplay?: Ryuutama uses a system where skill checks will most of the time use two dice and two skills, so for example chopping down a tree might be [Str + Dex], then you add those two numbers together + Your mod in each respective skill to get your final number! at times you might also need to use different dice sizes, for example a d8 and a d4, and sometimes you'll only roll one die, those are very difficult checks. Character creation is a breeze! Choose a class (from options like Minstrel, Noble, Farmer, or Merchant), a Style (from Magic/Attack/Technical), Stats, your preferred weapon, a personal item, and minor details, thats it! The interesting part of Ryuutama is of course, the GM, you see the GM is playing a character throughout the campaign as well as narrating everything, this character is the Ryuujin, a powerful dragon that can assume a less threatening form in order to approach the party, as well as a humanoid form with horns, dragons have an Artifact (A major gameplay modification) and a list of Benedictions (Powerful effects that change the rules for one session) and Reveils (Powerful abilities that immediately have some sort of effect)

What's the setting (If any) like?: The setting is created by the GMs and Players working together, though high fantasy is expected!

What's the tone?: Ryuutama is a laid back, chill game... well mostly, a Crimson dragon GM or Black Dragon GM can change the game's tone widely, changing it to either a combat focused game (not recommended, the combat's p light) or a dark intrigue game

Session length: 1-3 hours! Ryuutama's built for shorter sessions

Number of Players: 3-5 players, including the GM

Malleability: Pretty low, there's no real setting but you wanna keep it in High Fantasy ville for the most part

Resources: Ryuutama is actually a pretty big game, so theres some resources if you're willing to look, character sheets, mood playlists, supplements, all available and translated

Ryuutama is a chill, pleasant walk through a world of magic and monsters, you'll need to fight sometimes, but the challenges in the world mostly come from yourselves and the world around you, its a cute game!

Wanted to play around with a shading technique, think it came out well!
