There needs to be a way to delineate between Lumberjack-lookin Artisinal Beer Hipsters (Who loved stomp-clap music and were very Youth-Group Adjacent) and /mu/-coded Death Grips Pitchfork Hipsters. Both co-existed with some overlap from 2008-2015
look, i'm not humorless so i can get behind jokes looking back on the hipster era just as much as the next girl who spent too much money at american apparel. But people have GOT to stop associating that scene with stomp clap lumineers shit. it's inaccurate!
to all the people, editors, and so on, who told me i had to stop using normal dashes when i was supposed to be using em dashes - in my writing, posting, and so on: now that em dashes have become the number one AI associated thing, i just want to ask - how does it feel.
In fiction evil is often written to have depth and complexity while good is written to be simple and boring. But in real life evil is boring and predictable while good is complex and unique every single time.

@crescendogames9 I had a really hard time avoiding "You Statements" as a GM, and PCs got stuck in Chatter Loops a couple times. Theres room for improvement.
However, we also got lost in the game and ended playing for an hour longer than we planned to
Terry Pratchett is quite funny, but his success lies in making people feel cleverer than they actually are. He does this in a lot of ways. A big one is having his main characters, the audience identification points, be fairly intelligent people in a sea of idiots.
Just watched. Irritatingly slow buildup and Jim is not the actor his father was, but once it gets going his wooden performance feeds into the relentless Hick Vengeance in a Terminator sort of way. 7/10
Trackdown (1976) - Jim Mitchum hunts down the lowlifes who ruined his little sister in one of the meanest, grittiest revenge stories of the era. No mercy. No speeches. Just payback.
