Preview comparison 🧵between simulated and historical GWRT #Terrror Contagion. Working draft of ongoing research with KJ Oviatt and @VEPOLS presented tomorrow through @WPISDclub. Plan to submit and present at #ISDC2023 in Chicago from the @systemdynamics_ . 1/

@SunLife why do you want my to upload "pictures" not just the pdfs or receipts, and why did you ask me to only type out all the info on those receipts before coming back and asking for the originals?

Happy New Year! As twitter continues to implode, it's likely this account will go further dormant. But I would love seeing what other parts of the web you call home.

[vepols 🐼 @VEPOLS]

Anyone on my feed apply, or anybody know someone who does?

Hey friends, my studio is looking for a Black, nonbinary (or trans) voice actor to do some scratch audio for an in-development game!

It is paid, remote work. Please DM me if you're interested and I'll connect you to our narrative producer!!

I don't want to be a grown up today. My brain is full of cobwebs and asbestos flakes.

A less talked about side effect of YVR's ridiculous housing costs and low density is its hard to get a group of people together for an event because transportation eats up so much time.

New phone, but found out the @TheOnyxPath path dice app is back to working.

(Also those custom dice by @urwizards are impressive)

I have promised myself a new athletic wear piece if I make my 3x a week goal. What are you coveting?

Other than #ActuallyAutistic, what positive, useful communities are worth being part of on twitter?

The real fantasy is not the #HotEnemy, it's a single mother with the reliable childcare to go adventuring. (Tho possibly our heroine's kiddos are teens.)

Having a low desire to eat couple of weeks because of stress. It's frustrating because I don't actually want to crash diet. My body is just angry about stuff going in it.

Botox day, for migraines. It works, in so much that it reduces migraine frequency, but I am looking forward to menopause, when allegedly the hormone part of these migraines will drop.

#Vancouver why do bits of you keep burning down? I have never lived in a city that was this flammable. #GetYourShitTogether #YVR

I think one of the challenges for me in agrarian inspired recreated paganry is the assumptions tend to be built on simplified harvest patterns of a very particular kind of climate. It's an extension of the Christmas-in-Australia-VS-elsewhere aesthetic mismatch.

https://t.co/UmREvCwRIJ Shots fired, but a pretty good explanation of systemic racism versus our perspective of it, as well as asking what to do next. Though in redefining group structure, I wonder how do you get past the conflicts that come with that realignment? 🤔

Finished the last of my @ThesaurusTea Caramel Pureh. Calamity, I must order more!

I feel like there's probably got to be a study out there that compares outcomes of if a doctor counsels a depressed person to exercise or not, but without providing any other support to accomplish said exercise while dealing with a chronic health issue. https://t.co/oodENrtHxH

Me: to run I need to get up at 5:30 AM

My body: got it, 4 AM it is!

@Funderstatement @MysteryCapybara People just don't like each other very much.

It feels weird to have taken a break from all LARP after being all about the LARP for like, 5 years, but it's been nice to drop all the OOC interpersonal conflict. It takes So. Many. Spoons. #ConflictIsNotAbuse #ButItIsLabour

[vepols 🐼 @VEPOLS]

But, I stand by the fact that you can't mechanic your way out of intraplayer trust issues, or labour hour/cash investment bankruptcy. Until you fix those, the activity will remain not-viable or massively damaging to enough participants my long vaycay will continue.

[vepols 🐼 @VEPOLS]

After watching the failures of contemporary LARP around power hierarchy in play, I desperately want to experiment with what systems would organically evolve with game groups ranging from 6 to 60 players. I blame @mcgillu for giving me a #PoliSci degree.

[vepols 🐼 @VEPOLS]

Any sort of redo of the current @ByNightStudios system probably needs to do a LOT of batch testing focused on ooc culture pain points. @vampirethemasquerade purging elders in V5 is understandable. The BNS power correction didn't correct the ancestral memory grumble from oldbies.
