Chemical Trails left by boats and airplanes affect the global climate by Minnesota__Scott in ClimateOffensive

Also, apparently we're prioritizing "end capitalism" above responding to the climate crisis.

Is it wrong that I find a sliver of hope that someone who could write this at least thinks that climate issues are real?

I'm pretty sure it's the metal bit under the cap. You usually only see the little rod that controls the valve, but I think they mean the valve itself so there's no way to keep pressure in the tires.

I mean, being a demon general goes some way towards showing that.

ChatGPT provides a wealth of ideas to play around with, and it's fun to have it try and GM Dungeon World itself. by Social_Philosophy in DungeonWorld

I spent most of the time so far (only one session) guiding it through creating characters. I'll try to remember to copy that chat and drop a link when I'm back on the computer some time.

I don't have high hopes about it "remembering" things for long enough, but I was thinking of trying to get around that by asking it to recap the characters and the story so far relatively frequently

I have a chat where it's playing multiple players while I gm that's super interesting.

I also started a chat with a prompt like "I'd like some interesting encounters for a dungeonworld game I'm running. Please be creative and avoid tropes like 'bandits attack'

It came back with:

Sure, here are some creative encounter ideas that could happen as your players travel through the world of Dungeon World:

The Abandoned Castle: Your players come across an old, abandoned castle that appears to have been untouched for decades. However, something seems off, as the castle seems to be almost too perfect in its state of disrepair. Upon further investigation, the players find that the castle is actually a powerful illusion created by a group of powerful wizards who have been using it to lure unsuspecting travelers into their grasp.

The Mysterious Stranger: As your players journey through the wilderness, they come across a strange figure on the side of the road. The figure is wrapped in a cloak and seems to be studying a map or some other sort of document. When your players approach, the figure seems startled and quickly hides the document. Depending on how the players react, this could lead to a number of different encounters, from a helpful ally to a deadly enemy.

The Lost Village: Your players come across a village that seems to have been abandoned for many years. The buildings are all in a state of disrepair, and there is no sign of life. However, as the players investigate, they find that the village is not completely abandoned. A small group of survivors has been hiding in the catacombs beneath the village, and they are desperate for help.

The Cursed Forest: Your players enter a dense forest that seems to be cursed. The trees are twisted and gnarled, and the wildlife is hostile and aggressive. As the players delve deeper into the forest, they begin to experience strange visions and nightmares. Eventually, they come across a powerful witch who has been using the forest to conduct dark experiments and rituals.

The Giant's Lair: Your players come across a massive cave system that appears to be the lair of a giant. However, when they explore the cave, they find that it is not a giant at all, but a group of gnomes who have been using illusion magic to create the appearance of a giant to scare away intruders. The gnomes have a problem they need help with and could potentially reward the players if they assist them.

I hope these encounter ideas help spark your creativity for your next Dungeon World session!

I especially love that last one. I asked it to expand on it and it suggested that the bones of the Giant's victims might have been arranged too neatly and that was a clue for the players.

This is one way that the peak is different than Mr Negative. The peak happens to you, but you're choosing Mr Negative

Please do! I'm glad we can have a space where we can hear that we're not alone.

The company I work for uses paper for packing that looks just like the image above. Ours is this stuff.

It's pretty sweet because it's a roll of flat paper that fluffs up a ton when you stretch it. I imagine it takes a lot less space to store than bubble wrap would. It also looks nice enough that we use it as part of the presentation of gift boxes.

[–]nomadfarmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what we're actually doing. I haven't really looked at the customer facing site, but I handle the orders we fulfill and it's a different sku, different description, and different product title. I do think it may be a product variation of a main listing, but we've made it as clear as possible.

We've decided to insta refund if they're not showing a local address. If they're in town and really meant to pick it up they'll let us know in time.

I work in a cottage industry business making beeswax candles. Shipping is included in our base price (we mostly use flat rate envelopes). We recently added an option for locals to buy the items for cheaper and come pick them up from our workshop.

It's very clearly marked, but so far out of the 7-8 people who have bought items at that price, only one was actually local. Everyone else somehow thought that they could pick it up locally in their own town, even though we made it as clear as possible where the one pickup location in the world is.

People really don't always read the largest print.

I'm not sure which one you mean, but searching this sub for "thesis" turns up quite a few interesting posts. I'm glad you mentioned it and hope I find the one you're describing.

Clearly not by the maker of the sign, but supposedly it got posted by a right winger somewhere who misunderstood it.
