waking up every morning just to roll a nat 1 on initiative

Nerd Proposal Idea:

You get a custom d20 that says “marry me” on the 20 spot

You give it to your intended and suggest they give it a couple rolls to see how it is

It immediately goes in dice jail because they roll like five times and don’t get above a ten

Six months later they finally get a nat 20 with but the DM says it doesn’t count because it doesn’t actually say 20

They break up with you on the spot for ruining their roll

Alternately: get a Weighted custom d20

modern nerd woosterposting and friends

The Posts are going viral again so sure, I'll dig through my drafts. Two of these were written for the same story, coming Eventually. Can you guess which ones?

previously: millennial nerd bertie wooster for some reason, millennial nerd woosterposting part 2 act 1 act 1, ukridge buys bitcoin, psmith "meets" elon musk, modern nerd bertie wooster goes viral

People saying that "playing dnd doesnt have to cost anything" and "it can be fun even without all the books and expensive maps and minis" may be right but have you seen some of the dice out there????? Fucking beautiful

[txttletale]

now to be clear i think all these jokes are funny and i would have reblogged the post but the first sentence annoyed me too much. why do dnd players have this stereotype that the DM is a no-fun allowed grumpy mom exasperatedly putting up with the rambunctious child-players. play with people you like and respect!

No disrespect to people who like those pacifist community-building TTRPGs that get popular on itch.io or whatever but I can't play games that have no "knock this fool senseless" option

5e fans will literally get mad when you try to sell them a new product instead of a $60 reskin of a thing they already own.

UNSKILLED LABOR

hey yall! I'm currently working on a ttrpg about supernatural low-wage jobs called Unskilled Labor, and I wanted to hear from folks who've done all kinds of different work.

and, please note, before you assume your work history isn't interesting enough for this, that you've almost certainly done the kind of work that I'm looking for here! even if you've only done food service or retail, even if you've only worked somewhere for a month or two, even if you still don't feel like you know what you're doing, I wanna hear from you!

thank you!

im rewatching starstruck odyssey and this narration really stuck out to me…… big comedy season but the themes of isolation vs. connection are sooooo special and beautiful <3

Falin lost her character

Our party badass and resident boomer, Sarah, who despite being "the responsible one" accidentally signed on with a literal supervillain to pilot this mech. I think we have to fight said supervillain next session. :despair:

Apologies about the Glaze, I know it doesn't really play well with my particular style of work but I'm not comfortable posting art on tumblr anymore without it. If you'd like, there's a cleaner version up on my Bluesky.

okay, fun, maybe a little awkward: PC x PC romance

inspired, riveting, hilarious: PC x their fellow PCs moms/dads
