Shade on the Clocktower

My twitter for interacting with board games, video games, and general geekery.

*low whistle* oh right.

Ok, so, the following thread is going to be dense. I have a model of what I call "Identity Trauma" that is not exclusive to Neurodivergent people but so common among us that almost nobody can actually see it.

Let me tell you a story.

@Ratteler50 @BMilli333 @bungeeman17 @JonSimantov It was a ton of fun 💜

[Shade on the Clocktower @ShadeShadowfox]

Someone posted this on a Discord I'm on, and... yeah, pretty much.

[Shade on the Clocktower @ShadeShadowfox]

@wendoverpro In the most recent Jet Lag video, there was a little path-to-nowhere with a challenge that some of you all drove by without explaining. What was the challenge there, and was there a particular purpose to it?

[Shade on the Clocktower @ShadeShadowfox]

It's.... me!
It was very confusing to run the whole game with the person I knew as Adam being "named" Steve... I think I slipped up more than he did, though!

[Off Meta @OffMetaTweets]

There was already an Adam in this game so I had to pick another name. First thing that came to mind was "Steve"... Not sure why

[Shade on the Clocktower @ShadeShadowfox]

@OffMetaTweets Also, cheers on the Legion game today, Adam, that was a ton of fun. Sorry Tyler! ;-; I feel bad!

[Shade on the Clocktower @ShadeShadowfox]

@OffMetaTweets It was a real pleasure to run for y'all!
I know this is a few weeks late, but it only just occurred to me now that you might have taken that picture for a reason lol. I'm smort.

Looks like this Tweet from 5 years ago was on target. 😎 I think @drawin_casscain was ahead of me by a few years.

If you're wondering whether @Disney have stepped up and paid the royalties they owe to to authors, illustrators & comics artists for books & GNs they have published or relicensed, the answer's NO. (They've paid a few high-profile authors.) https://t.co/GVMWBrOT1D #disneymustpay

The issue with laughing at NFT-guys is you can never mock them as effectively as they accidentally mock themselves.

Nothing will ever be as hilariously damning as him announcing this NFT represents his unique identity, values & beliefs, and it's Generic Pixel Guy In Grey Hoodie.

I've just learned that livestream regular Sick Phil has lost his battle with cancer. The reason we did the Stardew Valley livestream this last week was his request, and he was able to make it to that livestream, so I hope that made him smile.

Cancer is shit. Hug your loved ones.

For context, since the article doesn't have any background:

First Nations fishery, allowed to operate year-round to provide "moderate living". White fishermen, pissed that they can only fish in-season. Protests. Threats. Break-ins. Theft. Vandalism. And now possibly arson.

In any sane version of the UK, the PM funnelling over £100,000 of public money to a woman he was having an affair with would be a matter of resignation and criminal investigation.

But we're busy fucking up in much bigger ways, so this won't go anywhere.

@ManyATrueNerd Any chance of a part 2? Because... I think there's only one more case. Like, the biggest complaint on Steam about the game is how short it is.

So I thought I'd ask you: do you have a list of QoL mods you use really often? The types of things that might help me not lose interest in the game due to a confusing UI?

I know this is probably not something you have time for, but in either case, thank you for all the videos.

[Shade on the Clocktower @ShadeShadowfox]

@quill18 I recently kinda got interested in Rimworld again, thanks to a @roll1d2games series, and I was hoping you could help with something: Rimworld seems to have a lot of QoL mods, and I'm stumped, having not played much, to know what are really helpful.
