My hand is so tired of drawing hands.

I made this as a personal reference to myself, all of these hand positions I need to learn. So I posed my hands and traced over them to get the basic shapes. Literally, the same day in art she had us working on hands. I don’t know if I’m getting better, but I thought I’d upload this for personal reference? I don’t know.

Enjoy I guess? I don’t own the last two images, those are taken from google. The rest of the original images I took myself.

Inadvisable tabletop RPG jam premise #137: Game jam where each entry consists solely of paratextual discussion of the mechanics of a hypothetical or invented RPG; examples include an errata document, a developer Q&A, or a forum thread debating the correct interpretation of a particular rule.

@shoutyourporpoise replied:

I could SWEAR you’ve made this post before, or perhaps this is such a characteristically “you” concept that I already imagined a world in which you had

I don't think so, no. I did once (unintentionally) curate a game jam about writing supplements for invented or hypothetical games, the product of which you can find here, but this is a different thing.

[prokopetz]

(If anyone really wants this one to be a thing, though, feel free to toss your entry into the reblogs. I'm not going to do a proper game jam on itch.io or whatever because its UI really wants you to have cover art and a promotional blurb and such, and this doesn't feel like it warrants it!)

[sburb-karmicretribution]

Okay, so I know the relevance here is one step off - but I did make a customer support website for a video game that doesn't exist. You can fill out a questionnaire about common bugs!

Explaining homestuck isn't hard and doesn't take ten thousand paragraphs to do y'all just don't know how to summarize things.

[flagellant]

Homestuck is a webcomic where there is a multiplayer video game called Sburb which is a standard component of reality itself. Sburb, when played, destroys your original universe and transports you to a liminal place called a Land where the goal is to create a new universe and reality. Because all the realities are made by previous players of the video game, there's a large cast that follows multiple timelines/realities. Because all of this is also a video game, there are some bugs/hacks/glitches. Much of the later plot of Homestuck revolves around trying to glitch reality in a way to kill an unkillable glitched final boss to save and fix the timelines/realities which were all glitched to being unplayable/unwinnable because of it. There are a variety of mediums in which the story is told and the guy from Undertale did a lot of the music for it.

[flagellant]

Yes, because that's not explaining Homestuck, that's writing a book report. This is what I mean when I say people don't know how to summarize.

[bitegore]

I don't think I'd call that "explaining homestuck" then, though. There is more to a story than the world it's set in.

[flagellant]

You don't need to explain the concept of Jujus, galaxy frogs, classpects, and x2 planar defenestration combos to explain Homestuck. Overexplaining is actively counterproductive to what an explanation should be, which is to make someone understand the bones of something.

Also, I don't want to spoil people! Homestuck is a genuinely cool webcomic that I think handles itself really fascinatingly well and I would rather give the above explanation which doesn't immediately overload them with shit like ectobiological theory and lets them come across it at their own pace.

Explaining the narrative is an entirely different ballpark than explaining the concept of Homestuck. And explaining the narrative isn't explaining Homestuck: it's giving a book report.

[harlequinhatter]

lost me in the first sentence homie

[flagellant]

That's your problem with reading comprehension then my dude, not my problem with clarity.

[harlequinhatter]

"Homestuck is a webcomic where there is a multiplayer video game called Sburb which is a standard component of reality itself," Isn't as digestible as you seem to think it is. I mean, I'm sure it makes perfect sense to someone who has read Homestuck, but to anyone who hasn't, that's a huge suspension of disbelief to come right out the gate with.

[flagellant]

My dude, I have some real bad news about any and all stories ever told and suspensions of disbelief about them. This is literally a you problem.

[zarohk]

That initial summary is pretty informative and succinct. Just one question, what is it like tonally? Upbeat, downbeat, exciting and exploratory or despairing and bleak?

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

Tonally, it’s mostly a long series of silly jokes

i want the epilogue to be john egbert writing a game review for sburb on amazon

“4/5 stars. very immersive! met a lot of new people while playing. lots of content. the only reason i am not giving it the full five stars is because my dad died during the course of the game, along with the whole human race.”

"Beleaguered" is a wonderfully expressive word. I am beset by troubles so manifold that they have formed a league. I am playing host to a diplomatic summit of the United Nations of Fuckery, and negotiations are not going well.
