@FrankMooreNH @YoDanno I go to bookstores weekly for over 30 years. I have seen the destruction of sff over that time. Shrunk shelves. Bad art. Degeneracy moving in, in the form of Stockholm syndrome monster porn for teenage girls. Luckily, online self pub, indie, and webnovels have never been better

Several months ago, @YoDanno was pointing out the fact that the artwork on modern sci-fi and fantasy novels sucked.
I am standing in the extensive sci-fi and fantasy section of Powell's Books in Portland and I have never felt the weight of someone's comments so much. This art sucks.

@walloper2025 Trade in books that suck at used bookstore, Half price books. Organize by genres of stuff i read. Sci fi, fantasy, general fiction, science, history, general nonfiction. Within genre (history) just alphabetically, nonsubtopics. You actually want to just easily find your shit

@DaddyWarpig Read it in high school. Boring, no plot. Spoiled depressed rich kid walks around town. Had to write an essay on it back in the day. Awful. No reason to read it.

No. It seems like the exact opposite of a book I would be interested in.

The way you guys exile air-conditioning from your lives is something I'll never understand.

@Bakugo_sn No. The Dutch will choke in a knockout round per usual. Probably beat by a Cinderella team.

@texasrunnerDFW Well, all the people in my neighborhood in north DFW are immigrants. They do not care about US history or customs. Only the white and black people care or will have flags. Unless theyre a California immigrant.

@JamesMac_Fit We just dont give them screen time. Maybe half an hour youtube if im busy doing something else. Just get books, games, toys, etc. They just want to play with something. Young kids only get screentime if you as the adult Intentionally put it in front of them

Dads... I need your advice.
As a young dad myself, I’m genuinely worried about my son growing up addicted to screens, phones, games, etc.
It feels like EVERYTHING is designed to grab their attention these days.
So I want to ask:
- How do you actually manage screen time in your house?
- What’s worked for you?
- What’s failed?
Would appreciate real answers from people who’ve been there 🤝

@FPCGameSoftware Yes. We have always had slavery in all of history. Only illegal the last century, but still de facto present through human trafficking today.
English

What does everyone else think? Should fantasy worlds have slavery?
The Realm of Sesamar@GigagodSesamar
Joseph Vargo's Empress Slavery has been in existence for tens of thousands of years. No fantasy world is complete without its use. ...or is it so immoral that it is verboten? #Sesamar #Slavery #ttrpg

Unrelated but a lot of Americans are calling the World Cup “FIFA”, not the first time I’ve seen this and I wonder why

@NintendoFanGirl Missing Final Fantasy 15 Demo on ps4, which is a unique prologue to the game showing Noctis’s childhood. Also A Kings Tale: FF15, which is the 2d prequel following Noctis’s father. You also have to watch FF15 Kingslaive movie and Brotherhood anime just to complete the story….
