Something critical that a lot of modern tabletop RPGs that are shooting for the "shitty late 1980s/early 1990s indie RPG" vibe usually miss is laser animals. If you really want to capture the spirit of the era, your setting absolutely must have a "monster" that's just a regular animal that can shoot lasers. Doesn't matter what kind.
Was working on a trail and now I'm stuck drawing with light - both forward and backward in time. Fun!
Will probably tone it down later, too bright.
Also, new area inspired by Moria from LOTR.

An old meme I made a while ago when I did the code managing room generation for Ruby Dungeon, but I hadn't any social media at the time and it's currently relevent to me again so I'm posting it now-

This is true but also, people who use AI typically do not want something new, they want something that already exists, but in a lesser form they can claim ownership over. The primary use case of AI is to plagiarize, to reorder someone else's work, no matter whose, and put it on a leash.
The more you understand AI, the more you realize that it can't replace artists. It just can't. Even using the AI to make something requires being a creative human with an idea. Generative AI literally runs on a data set, it cannot conceptualize things that do not already exist -- or even things that DO but aren't in its data. And honestly, sometimes even the best models have a pretty hard fucking time conceptualizing things that very much do exist in their data set. The whole concept of creativity revolves around being able to conceptualize a unique idea that lives inside your brain. Being able to regurgitate things that already exist and being able to flesh out a fully original idea are completely opposite things. Even when you are prompting an AI model to generate something that you thought up, you have to explain it in terms of things that already exist so the AI can create it from those pre-existing pieces. If AI existed in 1930 you could not ask it to generate an image of gollum, because Tolkien did not create him yet. Do you see what I'm saying??????
Hey there! I'm reaching out because Giselle is facing brain surgery soon, and she's really in need of support to cover her medical and recovery expenses. Even a small donation can make a huge difference for her during this tough time. If you could click the link below to donate or share it with others, it would mean so much to her!

I was looking through my old old sorcerobe folder, all this stuff is from like 10-15 years ago now, and I probably posted all of it on tumblr back then too... Honestly pretty impressed, I still like a lot of it
Can we see a puppy
No part of these descriptions contradict each other
There are exactly two types of "gnome" that exist in the collective conscious.
One is a whimsical little guy that smokes his pipe and lives in a mushroom. they are lovely, they are your friends, you have tea with them.
The other is effectively a eusocial nest forming rodent with the wherewithal, malice and thumbs to utilize vietnam war era tactics on you.
