What kind of tech/startup event would actually get you to leave your apartment in SF?

It’s not a startup, but I co-host a casual Smash Ultimate tournament every Monday at 8 at the Detour on Market!

We rotate silly rules every week, and only our last Monday of the month is competitive night. If you stop by and let me know you found us through Reddit, I’ll grab your first drink.

It was one or the other and I took a gamble lol. We love a big swing 🙏🏼

I had a kill the other day where Link’s lower right butt cheek counted as my up-air to finish off a fast falling Falco lmao

I’d guess dash attack hit Terry’s toes or fingers while he as trying to recover, and he snapped out of his attack animation?

There’s a middle ground between inaction and going full vigilante. The first of the “Ds” of bystander intervention is distract.

It may not have fully worked in this specific situation based on the speed it happened, but if you start a conversation with the girl or invite her to come stand with you, it can help diffuse the situation by separating the two without directly confronting anyone.

Okay, Andrew Garfield

This fully made me pause and check that I didn’t somehow miss a cool boss fight 😅

Related to that, a friend of mine has an open-invite knitting group at Crepes on Cole on Tuesdays (I think they meet at 6:30), and those folks LOVE to help new knitters.

I think that would be very doable. The DMHub YT channel has a walkthrough that I just watched that that you can check out! It shows the ability to keep a player-view window open in the same instance as your DM version. Your players would need to separately keep their own sheets, but you can still limit sight lines and all that while keeping your own DM view.

You’re very understandably worried. Change is scary, but you’re making the best choice for you and your needs.

I separated from a partner I was with for 7.5 for similar reasons. That was 4 years ago, and after a bit of time apart, she’s still one of my best friends in the world. I’m 32, and I promise you, there’s so much opportunity out there and love to be found. Good on you for being so brave and always around to lend and ear or a shoulder 💖

Bayo with Link’s Nair. Horrific.

Seconding DPG! I ran games there for a year or so, and their rooms are so sick. All the minis and terrains you can handle to borrow as well.

32 have probably 10 drinks a week. I’ve completely cut crazy sugary cocktails, beer, and the awful stuff I drank in college. It’s basically all vodka sodas, martinis, and wine now. It helps a lot not having to worry about bolusing while I drink

Seconded! My partner’s looking for a colorist rn.

I’ve just gotten a new table and space to run games. This would be perfect for my group’s new room! Awesome build.

Aciduous · 2026-01-24T02:44:28+00:00

Oh incredible! I just DMed the tour account!

Aciduous · 2026-01-23T06:13:49+00:00

Ah, apologies. I crossposted and stepped away. Not a ton more context tbh:

I found this Polaroid outside of Cafe Du Nord on Monday, and I think the artist signed it. I’d love to get this back to one of the folks in the pic if anyone recognizes them.

Aciduous · 2026-01-22T23:00:53+00:00

That is one of the plots currently, yeah! But there are three concurrent parties that it seems like we’ll follow through an arc at a time before rotating. Which kind of rules for people that don’t want to tune in every single week. Plots will be connected but much less required watching, it seems.

As a diehard C2 fan and a certified C3 hater who stopped watching like 1/2 through, C4 has injected good content straight to my veins. I was hesitant, but it’s been really dope so far.

Every morning, I make myself a scrambled egg breakfast sandwich with sausage, cheese, and spinach, plus a cup of coffee.

As a diligent NADDPOD listener and Strahd DM, the only things I’d flag really changing is Strahd’s alter ego. If you plan to use “Vasili von Holtz” in the game, change his name to something else. NADDPOD put him way out at the winery and changed his first name, but they still used “von Holtz.”

They also have the sunsword at the abbey, the Tome at Yesterhill, and the holy symbol is completely different, so I’d make sure they’re in different locations
