After reading this article, I'm convinced that Matt could never become a gamer because it would be too Powerful.

The man is already a Simpsons obsessed civil war nerd history pedant who bought a pewter dragon to make into a necklace and at one point owned a Sword, and that's without gaming.

In that interview, when Matt mentioned OWS & the problem that Obama was president so they didn’t have a sort of collective vocabulary, I was immediately reminded of the surge in dsa membership november 2016.
I also think he’s spot-on that a year ago it felt likeclimate change was just going to keep getting worse and politicians were just going to shrug till we all died, but that it seems like we might actually turn a corner and instead of “the black death” kinda bad, it might just be “seriously hosed up” bad.

when i first heard matt was the antigamer i figured it was because the medium is for the most part poo poo and hasn't really improved much over time in terms of things like narrative structure and such (and jesus christ felix's big game is fortnite?) and thought yeah he's gonna crush virgil. but then i found out it was because he thought people would get lost in them like the matrix or something?

This may come from me being a lazy, depressed lump, but imagine working to make the world a worse place. Not making the world a worse place as a consequence of doing something you enjoy, not benefiting from doing something bad, not doing something bad to fund an expensive lifestyle. Sitting down, forgoing leisure, and expending effort because you want to spend time making life worse for poor people and covering for death squads.

Tortured By Flan
I’ve been recently inspired by the Chapo Trap House tabletop RPG gaming Call of Cthulhu episodes and now preparing a similar campaign of my own to run with some friends.

For uh, reasons [1. John Mcafee | 2. I’m a coward (edit in url later)] I picked Belize as my starting Central American country to explore. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belize

After a bit of research and watching several interviews, I’m in love with the place. Very diverse and laid back. Even 60 Minutes in the 80s was into this scene. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=radkZiEDICs Hope to visit there myself someday.

Still struggling for better 1920s sources though, but I’m getting there.

However I didn’t have the main antagonist who the players will go up against quite figured out yet. Just going for an uptight small business tyrant type to start out. Kinda had writer’s block on this… until I finally watched a YT video that I was initially avoiding because it was obvious bare breasted NatGeo native click-bait.

Thus I found my villain: This video’s narrator -
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tmEx0GwPyq8

Holy poo poo, now I have my terrible conservative brexiteer xenophobe Brit angle to anachronistic yet topically tie to the story.

Unfortunately this video is heavily edited and likely appropriated. I’d like to find the real title and source of this video. Write an email to Adam Curtis?

Q: Anybody here familiar with who this might be or find a title to get a better / more complete source or who else you’d recommend I pester and likely will reply back?

And hell, what am I getting into with this so called Queen's Regiment channel? :yikes:

Q: Any suggestions on a SA forum topic that would welcome a gaming discussion of this nature?

Also, I’m also thinking of doing a Reddit re-post of this post, but gently caress, I don’t want to tumble into a gravity well of negativity either. :downswords:

Belden fought alongside a guy they called "Cannibal Steve" (or Bob or whatever) because he just picked up the foot of someone who'd been killed by a landmine and took a bite out of it. I don't think his tenure in the YPG lasted very long.
