I feel like I saw something on that topic before and no organic matter would survive being hurled out of our atmosphere. It'd burn up entirley and nothing would be left. Maybe if it was like... a sphere with a cave inside?

Tonight on stream I decided my first piece of merch will be a sleeping blindfold with the eyes of my avatar on it.
Now I only need about 15.000 more followers and 1500 more subscribers on twitch to make it actually a viable thing.

Sadly they did not kick his ass. They sort of settled in the end, but they lost their special status and self governance stuff to a board controlled by DeSantis but he put a few pro Disney faces on that board to get it all to settle. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disney_v._DeSantis

I don't know. Disney lost against Ron DeSantis on home turf. Not quite sure what they are going to do against a foreign actor.

Loved it. Every single actor and actress is doing a stellar job. The character arcs are fantastical but also believable due to the obscenely crazy circumstances they all find themselves in during the chosen setting of the show. I am very surprised it has such low ratings, I think it is a triumph in what it set out to accomplish.

The US and the USSR engaged in a race to have the most nukes. After the fall of the Sowjet Union international treaties were put in place to reduce the number of nukes in both east and west.
Don't quote me, but if I remember correctly, at the height of the cold war, both sides had more than 12.000 nukes each.
Humanity had enough fire power to delete the entire globe roughly 40x over then. Why? Because bigger is better.
Hello everyone! My voice is finally returning to me and we'll celebrate that tomorrow with a full length Stellaris stream (if my voice survives it, anyway). I missed you all and I hope to see you there! https://twitch.tv/imperorthefirst Stream will be 19:00-23:00 CEST (Berlin) - come on by, let's hang out and celebrate Straturday!

Clearly me. I am a tiny little youtuber and streamer who wants this place to succeed, so I lurk, I post and don't have a presence on the big platforms.
So if I ever make it big, I can help drive users here. You just wait! It'll happen any day now!

If you stop and think about it, it is kind of crazy that there is one country on earth with no speed limit stretches. As German drivers, we learn driving on a different level just due to that reason alone. It's pretty neat.

Because Trump is being his usual weasly self trying to have "debates" on his home turf before the debate he initially agreed on to have with Biden.

I mirror my stuff from youtube over there and I do not fall into these categories. To be fair, I have the tiniest of audiences anyway, so... doesn't really matter either way.
Haven't checked in on Odyssee for a while though. Not sure if the auto mirror thing still works.

Dungeon Keeper was my very first video game addiction. I stayed up late and got up early before school just to get in a few more hours with the game. It had so many mechanics all rolled into a delicious little strategy game that was so different than anything else at the time with weird little quirks and details that didn't have to be in there, but were. Let me list all the stuff I remember being blown away by and that no game since has really properly captured anymore. - The spell sounds and voice acting were amazing.

Hello everyone! After finishing up [The Everfog - Field of Spears ](https://impheim.com/2023/10/the-everfog-field-of-spears-a-single-quest-ttrpg-module/) I got to work on the next single quest module named [Mother of Loam](https://impheim.com/2023/10/mother-of-loam-a-single-quest-ttrpg-module/) In this one you and your table are going to try and help the town of Brockenbrook reclaim their sleep and venture into the haunted Brockenbrack swamps. The art prompt and additional illustrations in the PDF were generously supplied by [ZebraFeatherAH](https://mastodon.social/@ZebraFeatherAH@sunny.garden) over on Mastodon. Do give them a look and say hi, if you like their work. The quick adventure / quest comes as a [full PDF](https://l8n0e1.n3cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/Mother-of-Loam_v6.pdf) and [audio transcript](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7gUXDUAcbV4). Hope you enjoy!

Hello everyone! A few weeks ago I had an idea for a bit of a creative challenge and collaboration to create single quest modules for ttrpgs. I approached some lovely artists over on Mastodon and some agreed to give this a go. Since I mainly play DND, it's d20 compatible, but can be adopted into (probably) anything. The idea is simple: An artist creates or gives me a piece they've made already without any context or further information. I take what I can see and write a single quest module inspired by the artwork. The Everfog - Field of Spears is the very first one and it's slightly spooky, halloween-y. Another one (with a similar atmosphere) will be released in the next two weeks. https://impheim.com/2023/10/the-everfog-field-of-spears-a-single-quest-ttrpg-module/ Here's the first paragraph from the (free) 4-page PDF: >A mysterious and ancient sickly green pyramid sits at the center of the crater atop the mountain Kaal. The crater is eternally covered in a thick and impenetrable fog that seeps over its edges into the surrounding lowlands. Those that are caught in the fog never return and their bodies are never found. The people living near the phenomenon call it “The Everfog”, as it never seems to dissipate. The people are weary and keep away from the fog, crater and pyramid, saying they are cursed or worse. You can find the full PDF in the blogpost this post links to, as well as a complete audio transcript of the PDF on the blog or over on YouTube. Please also consider checking out the artist and giving them some support: https://mastodon.social/@trizadella This is free for you to use in your (non-commercial) campaign. All we ask is that, if you like it - or want more of it, go and give everyone involved some love and help share it around!
Good day everyone, hope you're doing well! I've made a new video and blog post on the topic of how to deal with sessions where people can't make it. My solution is fairly simple but effective: The Woven Dream, a state of dreaming where party members experience shared dreams. Besides allowing the group to play instead of skipping a session, it also allows you to really dig into the background of any (or all) of the present characters. It's not something that'll work every time, but it has served me really well, and I wanted to share the idea with you. I've also taken the feedback from this and other communities around here and my stuff isn't just videos anymore, but blog posts as well and the blog posts have a full audio narration of the blog post for those that prefer podcasts or to account for accessibility. Hope it gives you some inspiration!
