Etymologically, the word “Halloween” decomposes to hallow-een, not hallo-ween, so when you’re constructing portmanteaus of the word “Halloween”, you don’t have to include the W. If you include the full ween, you’re making a choice.

#happy ween

I am actually the opposite of a fungus in that you can actually only kill me in a way that matters, because human life is intrinsically valuable.

So write that down first of all.

I really think that it’s important to remember @staff are trying to phase out custom blogs! Literally the most fun and interesting part of Tumblr and a very awesome selling point of Tumblr’s entire model.

That’s part of their whole ‘Tumblr’s not easy to use’ bullshit. They’ve been working at it for months now, you can’t even access someone’s custom blog from mobile anymore and like not even on the mobile website.

So yeah that theme and those pages you worked so hard to make unique and interesting? The webcomic hosted on Tumblr in such a way that it basically has it’s own website? The ARCHIVE of your blog that you can pretty much only access from a button on your custom blog? It’ll all go down the gutter if we don’t yell until our voices go hoarse.

This is a BLOGGING website the point of the website is THE BLOGS! I didn’t work hard to maintain my blog and keep the pages on it looking pretty for some hack at RND to decide it needs to go to make way for their ‘definitely not-Twitter’ ideal website. I swear to god the loss of our custom blogs will be the exact last straw for me and I WILL leave.

Replacing physical buttons and controls with touchscreens also means removing accessibility features. Physical buttons can be textured or have Braille and can be located by touch and don't need to be pressed with a bare finger. Touchscreens usually require precise taps and hand-eye coordination for the same task.

Many point-of-sale machines now are essentially just a smartphone with a card reader attached and the interface. The control layout can change at a moment's notice and there are no physical boundaries between buttons. With a keypad-style machine, the buttons are always in the same place and can be located by touch, especially since the middle button has a raised ridge on it.

Buttons can also be located by touch without activating them, which enables a "locate then press" style of interaction which is not possible on touchscreens, where even light touches will register as presses and the buttons must be located visually rather than by touch.

When elevator or door controls are replaced by touch screens, will existing accessibility features be preserved, or will some people no longer be able to use those controls?

Who is allowed to control the physical world, and who is making that decision?

i’m gonna make a movie where two normal ladies fall in love. everything’s chill, no age gap, they’re both out of the closet, their families love them, everything’s fine. the catch is that one lady has a cat and the other lady never figured out what the cat’s name was cause the Owner Lesbian ALWAYS uses a dumb nickname and now it’s been three years and they’re getting married and it’s too late to just ask

Okay so what we're doing for Camp Cryptic is not EXACTLY the same, but it's similar and I'm so excited for it in a totally normal way, so I'll explain.

The system is Kids on Bikes meets 10 Candles meets Betrayal at House on the Hill (and spiritually Monster of the Week? I guess?) (the vibe is college roadtrip slasher/ "oops! all cryptids!" horror)

There is an overarching story that I will be guiding the players through as GM. Every time the story reaches a natural lull or a fitting moment (group consensus), a player will choose an Encounter out of a hat (I decide which ones would be appropriate/funny for the moment and chuck em in there) and will GM it for either 1 or multiple PCs (depending on the instructions).

Encounters can either be a monster to defeat, a spirit to save, an interesting situation with puzzles and a mystery to solve, or even just goofy times. (One of the encounters entails the PC reading a mysterious letter wrong so they think they're evading a man-eating tree when they're actually just playing hide and seek with a small tree-eating lil guy.) The 'Encounter Master' has a set of guidelines to help build a story, but they are free to run it however they see fit so we can all have fun with it.

Oh and some of the puzzle solutions in the Encounters help in solving the mystery of the main story!

This came about because we wanted to have a campaign to play on a group trip and couldn't decide who would be GM because everyone (except our resident Forever DM) wanted to take a crack at it. So I said "why not both" and made(? frankenstein'd) a system where everyone can GM.

As a group we agreed on a theme, premise, and boundaries and I have created the campaign around that.

It's important to mention that this works for my group because we all trust each other. This kind of thing might not work for everyone, but we personally are having so much fun with it.

Play a mini game of DND within a game of DND and you get some minor benefit in the main game when you finish the mini campaign. The mini campaign takes just as long as a normal campaign

#another encounter is literally just a Siren Yung Gravy and i entirely blame one of my players for that #it was made specifically to torment him lmao #camp cryptic #meta #we're getting so close to it and it's so hard to stay quiet about #GAH! #ttrpg #lee rants

CGI animators should unionize next. normally, their jobs would be too precarious to strike, since studios would replace them without a second thought, but if it's part of this larger general film strike, they might finally have meaningful power to better their working conditions
