Catslug’s Sanity System 🧠

Because the D&D madness system in the DMG sucks ass, I have made a custom sanity system for Ravenloft and other more horror based settings. The system below is a Frankensteinian abomination made from the Call of Cthulhu 7th edition Sanity system, the Ravenloft 2e Fear, Madness, and Horror system, and the Bloodborne Insight mechanic- all of which have been packaged into a 5e compatible framework. I personally use these mechanics in my Ravenloft/CoS games. System complete with roll 20 macro codes for automation.

while source hunting i found "Determined Raptures": St. Sebastian and the Victorian Discourse of Decadence by Richard A. Kaye which i think is about what i was talking about a few months ago abt st sebastian always being drawn sexually, but it goes into why which is cool

link to me going on abt st sebastian always being so erotic that is mostly for me because i keep losing it and i need a link or else it will be lost forever

cons of going to a “good schoolTM”: insane workload, unbearable classmates, next to no support when you have any kind of extenuating circumstances Including literal hospitalization, etc

pros of going to a “good schoolTM”: the 9-5 lifestyle is genuinely a major improvement

The uni major uquiz is making its rounds again so people are being loud in my notes again which is a lot but @corianten left this in the tags

And yeah no that exactly what happened. Just a bunch of us crowded in their tiny kitchen drunk making a uquiz about being students in uni and for the next week one of them would ask me about people's responses at breakfast

D-DAY IS SO GOOOOOD GRRADGJKM

[froody]

I guess what I think is that suicide is a symptom of a problem and not the problem to fix, you know what I mean? To stop suicides you have to stop people’s mental health from getting to the point where they consider it, you have to treat the disease, trying to treat the symptom itself is almost completely useless.

For instance, Japan has spent a great deal of money on anti-suicide infrastructure, doing genuinely cartoonishly things like putting rollers on bridge railings so you can’t climb over them and slide right off, putting blue lights in the subway so it’s harder to see to throw yourself in front of a train. It’s not working. Japan’s suicide rate rose again in 2022. They are not addressing the root causes and stressors in their citizen’s lives and social barriers to mental health care and psychiatric medication.

It’s the same with universities in America, many have spent an exorbitant amount of money on turning their dorms into psych ward like environments. Anti-hanging chairs that you can’t stand on, bunks you can’t hang yourself from, slanted doorknobs etc. And yet suicide is still the second leading cause of death for college students. They make no attempts to make college easier, to make pausing and resuming your studies better, to make the pressure of an academic environment feel less life or death. They make no accommodations for the individual. They just make it a little harder to hang yourself in a few rooms on campus and call it a day, say they’re being proactive in terms of mental health.
