I translate German folk tales.
I am also interested in tabletop role-playing games.

@DebsBookReviews I translate old German folk tales into English! Two books have already been published under the series title “Sunken Castles, Evil Poodles”.
If you want to check out some of the tales before buying the books, you can listen to podcast and video adaptions of them here. I encourage such adaptions by others - I release all my translations under a Creative Commons Zero license!
Also, if Prigozhin wins, Putin will probably end up being “killed by traitors”, but Prigozhin will vow to avenge him and bring all traitors to justice.
Probably not quite yet - they’ll want to give Russian units time to retreat from the frontline and intervene in Russia.
The world will be in a better position because this internal conflict dramatically weakens the Russian war effort in Ukraine. Whatever faction comes out on top will be rather busy “cleaning house” for a while - giving Ukraine more space to fight this war.
Two TTRPG sessions (Dungeons & Dragons in person, Call of Cthulhu online), going swimming at the public pool, working some more on my translations of German folk tales.
A media company, to influence the world according to my political agenda.
Hey, every bilionaire’s doing it!
I can see non-profits, but I do not want governments running social media platforms. Regulating them, yes - but not running them. They do not have any competence in moderating online conversation, and it would be bad to give them the sole authority to do so.
I feel that it should be pointed out that Trump is also a fascist.
Nuclear needs a steady supply of water for cooling, which has become rather unreliable these days in many regions.
In the 1970s, talk of a “global cooling” was very much a minority opinion among climatologists.
And I’d like to have some citations on that “38 years ago” thing.
We need more cities focusing on bicycling over personal motorized vehicles.
The government of Russia is still committed to this war, and as long as this is the case the sanctions against Russia and the military support for Ukraine just continue.
The fascists should not win this fight.
I am tired of all these two-bit villains running tech companies.
Let’s just say that all the advances in TTRPG design of the last few decades completely passed it by.
Well, some games still haven’t learned that lesson (remember the German “Midgard” RPG?).
For all of its faults, D&D 3E was a step forward because it introduced an universal task resolution system
That’s an excellent idea! EU regulations on the digital rights of users are not to be trifled with, and “the right to be forgotten” is a big one.
The Fantasy Names Generator is a tool I use all the time to come up with NPC names.
Well, a dedicated Wacom tablet with in-built screen is always going to be superior for serious artwork.
But when you are traveling, the ability to do quick digital color sketches in broad daylight could be very useful indeed.
Playing in a D&D 5E game, running a Scion campaign heavily inspired by German folktales and folklore.
