  1. A lot of hyper-users of AI have symptoms of #ADHD and #dyslexia.

    I had and still have serious learning disability. I am a very slow reader. I have extremely poor memory. I have problems remembering vocabulary both in Chinese and in English. I have difficulties reading manuals and following instructions.

    What does AI offer me? A second brain to offload my learning deficiencies. I no longer need to memorize words, equations, models, programming language syntax, ...

  2. People give a lot of credit to Stranger Things and other cultural touchstones like Critical Role for boosting #dnd to the mainstream, but a lot of credit should go to #5e too. If the same shows dropped when #2e was hot, I think it’d be a different story.

  3. Some thoughts on the ‘Dark Sun’ announcement from #dnd at GenCon (just as my gaming group starts a #2e adventure in the original setting)

  5. Hi. I'm the Tootmaster at toots.inbutts.lol. I'm a #sysadmin for fun.

    I'm a professional #webdev. I make #email with #maizzle, landing pages with #11ty, and web apps with #laravel.

    I GM #ttrpg, usually #dnd #5e or #pathfinder #2e or #MorkBorg.

    I'm rewriting my #introduction since I had to restore from a backup that did not contain it! My last good backup was on the 14th of April, 2025. If you're seeing this because we were once mutuals, please ⭐ so I can *rebuild my following list.*

  7. I wrote about my experience as a German child in Italy, where a lack of pedagogical tools transformed a history lesson into a process of scapegoating. It’s a story about the intersection of trauma, semantic errors, and the invisible struggle of the twice-exceptional mind.

  9. Where do the non-chud #ttrpg old-schoolers go to chat these days? Is there a #discord channel or forum or something?

  10. Kids on #reddit got worked up over #THACO this week. The most common complaints were subtraction is hard on the brain, that #THAC0 is *not* subtraction, and THAC0 is proof #2E ruined #ADnD.

  12. The PDFs of then #13thAge #2e #TTRPG has been released. At first glance, I really like what I see! Really looking forward to the books. I generally avoid #DnD clones, but almost no rule is without exception. I like many ideas of this variant (icons, escalation die, proximity to #4e etc.)

  13. @amici @inkican this is totally valid. Yes people need agency, and not nominal, patronized agency, and the abilities people have need to be recognized regardless of disability. I, and many, are , twice exceptional. I have slow processing speed, and missed a lot of opportunity that was well within my capacity. But we should recognize such opportunity in service of our intrinsic value, not value a person based on their *different* ability.

  15. Ok

    Multiple exceptional kids

    We need to identify them as early as possible

    They require special programs, adjustments in schooling and parenting, they feel outsiders, they need to be in touch with other special kids

    What would happen to them, should they NOT identified ?

    That's what happened to me

    I was "identified" at 50 both as adhd and gifted

    I struggled with mental health all life long and i didn't know what I was struggling with

    I felt unbearable pain, I suffered from derealization in my 20ies

    I lost youth

    Now I'm not sure I know who i am

    The psychological profile from the scm 90 is bleak

    Are there any considerations for lost adults ?

    Books ? Videos ? Science ?

    Am I on my own in this ?

  17. One of the .. "benefits??" I guess of a #2E #autism diagnosis is that now when I see people I have worked with in the past seemingly breeze by me in climbing the ladder, getting into cooler more senior roles, I now know why.

    I throw "better" in quotes because in the past I might have looked on that as a challenge and been all like "fuck that!!" and doubled down my efforts.. and now my brain says stuff like "maybe this is as high as far as you get? maybe they are just better than you?".

    but then I still have enough of what got me here to be back at "fuck that" and adapt and overcome. Maybe knowing what my struggles are makes it much simpler for me to understand the constraints in my system, isolate and exploit them (aka Theory of Constraints).

    Fuckits refilled.

  31. Und noch ein Designdokument - denn langsam rinnt die Zeit bis zur anRUFung, auf der wir einen Workshop für die geplanten Änderungen an der 2. Edition halten. Danach wird es dann weitere Informationen geben, wie und wann wir damit weitermachen. #pnpde #rpg #design #2e

  32. I've always enjoyed this art from the AD& 2nd Edition Dungeon Master's Guide by David Doorman.

    The way he portrayed the fallen warrior's companions, one looking down with concern and the other holding his hand to comfort him is quite touching.

  33. More Judges Guild goodness, along with a classic #ADnD adventure, some counters, and a #2e player's book.
