Pasta so long it can't fit in your car and you gotta tie it to the roof. Pasta so long you gotta cook it outside because your ceiling is too low.

Gripe: Too many things are called ARGs. There have to be players for something to be a game. Reading a sequential series of text entries all in one place that tell a story some guy wrote with zero audience participation is not a game. That's a short story. It being on twitter instead of in a book doesn't make it not a short story.

Also some games are just G without the A or the R. Abt half of the spooky youtube videos sound like "There's an obscure ARG called 'baseball' where participants go to a baseball diamond and some of them play the baseball while others watch them play the baseball"

You should never be afraid to ask tabletop RPG authors dumb questions about their games because that's literally how we tell whether or not what we wrote is working.

You'd be surprised how much of effective technical writing boils down to just talking to people and going "okay, that's the daftest thing I've ever heard, but I can see how a very particular interpretation of the text as written would get you there – let's see if I can fix that".

ontologically is literally, ethereal is pretty, POV is pretend, junkie is addict, satire is parody, parody is mockery, death threat is hate mail, gaslighting is convincing, manipulative is abusive, abusive is toxic, toxic is problematic, problematic is annoying. write that down

You know as an American born in the late 90s I’ve watched my country blow up foreigners on tv supposedly in the interest of national security since I was a toddler but quite frankly we live on a natural fortress of a continent with friendly nations to our north and south and have been attacked on our own soil literally two times in the past hundred years and we have military bases on every inhabited continent on earth. It’s never made sense to do these things for “national security”. It never will make sense unless you value the shareholders of weapons companies over the lives of children. And apparently a concerning amount of people do.
