Lol, someone loves the taste of boots

I could see some kind of arrangement where the age would be something reasonable like 16-18, but then there is a test you can write (basic civics questions eg. who are the candidates, what does the legislative branch do, etc.) and if you pass that test, kind of like a learner’s permit for driving, you can vote even if you’re under that age, down to a hard cutoff of like 13.

As someone on the autism spectrum, I don’t mind using it or hearing people use it at all, as long as it’s being used as a synonym for “dumb” and not being used to specifically disparage someone with a disability. Just like “idiot”, words evolve over time from being specific words to refer to disabilities to just general words for someone being a dumbass.

If you are sleeping so heavily that you sleep through your alarm every time, you probably aren’t getting enough sleep. Go to bed earlier.

Rule 5: must be a topic of discussion

This is not a subject of discussion. It’s just OP saying “help me do my job pls”

A shitpost is something low effort, that simply takes up space in the content feed without being engaging, entertaining, or interesting.

One of the primary forms of shitpost is a meme or joke that isn’t very funny, or has been reposted to death. So “shitposting” can refer to the act of spamming shitty meme posts.

One of those isn’t a benefit and the other isn’t true. Also, e-bikes are a thing

Gob Bluth rides one, which reality captured the vibe they gave for the average person.

Except it didn’t really sound promising

Maybe ask them if they will let you post a bulletin in the store?

How about your posts on other boards that are explicitly for LFG (you mentioned posting on Reddit)? Did you see any responses there?

• Players assume their own identities rather than fictional characters.
• Gameplay is set in the players’ real-world locations, reimagined post-apocalypse.

Sounds like a neat idea. The self-insert aspect is interesting, but I wonder if it would limit the kinds of stories you could tell. How is character creation handled? Is it considered mandatory to create a character based on yourself, or is it simply a fun suggestion?

Also, how does the “gameplay is set in the player’s real world locations” thing work? Does that mean it’s harder to play online with people who are far apart? Does the game balance change if played by a group in a rural/urban/suburban/industrial environment? Or is it again simply a fun suggestion? These sound like neat ideas for making the game seem more unique and immersive, but I’m having trouble imagining how they would actually work in a way that would stay fun to play over and over again.

We need more maths terminology in our regulations

I have visited shops to find them full of Magic and other TCG players, but no role-players

Did you ask the people behind the counter at your LGS if they do TTRPG groups?

I have posted on relevant socials and Discords like the Discord server for a game store, local area RPG players Discord and FB pages, LFG groups on reddit and Lemmy and Discord

If you’ve done all that and you’re still not getting any bites as a GM looking for players, I’m inclined to think there is something wrong with your pitch that is turning people off. Usually GMs looking for players have the problem of too many players being interested. Maybe it’s because you’re looking for pen and paper players as opposed to an online group? Are there any unusual requirements you’ve put forth in your posts on these communities?

Some people might be a bit nervous about playing in-person with a totally new group. Perhaps you could offer playing online virtually with people in your local area first, and then if you all vibe, you could meet in-person after that.

Dead link for me

Tell me you’ve never worked a day in your life without telling me you’ve never worked a day in your life.
