Something that happens a lot to my posts about TTRPGs that happens a lot that distresses me and I'm not sure if it's an etiquette breach or not is unprompted responses where people tell me about the game they're working on and I am gonna break down why that's stressful to me

One thing in the Jenny Nicholson SW Hotel video she says is "I'm willing to bet that most middle class families have access to $6k, in savings or in assets" and it's interesting to me. Perhaps this is true, but it calls to my mind how vanishingly small this middle class is

Classic misunderstanding. It's not a medievialist game, despite its aesthetic trappings. It's overwhelmingly oriented around the Frontier as an structuring ideology. This actually better accounts for "we ran into a town run by a king for some reason" in fact.

That's not what death of the author is
TV Tropes is probably the ultimate example of death of the author. The whole point of it was meant to be a guide to help people tell stories and understand storytelling. But almost every internet critic used it to demonstrate why a piece of media using a trope is bad.

Having played Pentiment I think this is a very weird thing to say about Sawyer and the places he will or won't go with his writing
I don’t think every game needs romance, but I do think there is a weird push back against deeper emotional attachments.
Like, I wonder if it’s more folks just never being in touch with that part of themselves in a creative space, instead of being out of touch with an audience.

That's because the cultural obsession with individual responsibility above all else helped to spur on a class of people who maintained self isolation out of self-preservation and a sense of moral character. People who did really personally lock down for years
North America kind of got the worst of both worlds here, not only did we not really do "lockdowns" and have more excess covid deaths as a consequence, but half of us have convinced ourselves that we actually did and we also have trauma from it

Reminder that this most recent bout of war crimes started because of an attempt to unlawfully evict Palestinians living in occupied East Jerusalem. This isn't self-defense. Israel started this, in both an immediate and historic context
After providing advance warning to civilians & time to evacuate, IDF fighter jets struck a multi-story building containing Hamas military intelligence assets.
The building contained civilian media offices, which Hamas hides behind and deliberately uses as human shields.
