People seemed fond of the idea so I made the Overboard Rewatch official... with a graphic! It starts in a few days on the 16th and will end January 17th, the anniversary of the first Overboard video! Which I think is pretty nifty! It'll be cool to see how many of us end up participating ^_^
it’s been way too long since I released new music, but you can pre-save my new song, “Bubble Pop Zone”, now! Releases on 12.12.21!
Op I can’t believe you wouldn’t add the original video too, it’s gold
chaotic bi energy tbh
well, here it is folks, the moment you've been waiting for! here's under attack performed by a murder robot (feat 2winz²) nightcore, from bdg's parody album aaa!bba. enjoy!
YO SIMONE MADE THAT DINOTOPIA VIDEO SHE’S ALWAYS THREATENED TO MAKE YOOOOO
This is a good video
@ polygon fandom: does anyone else think polyogn is trying to make Jenna the new BDG? i just got caught up on like a couple of months’ worth of videos and it seems like she’s the only one (except Pat and Simone in the jackbox vid) who’s getting her picture in the thumbnails…
don’t go wasting your emotion lay all your blood on me
Hey, everybody! If you are interested in playing Cyberpunk RED, the roleplaying game, you should be aware that the game contains a mechanic called "cyberpsychosis". This mechanic is wildly ableist, on even more levels than you automatically assume. However, removing the mechanic entirely would likely break the game, as it is intended to curtail body modification and introduce a fear in the process behind it. The mechanic as presented does this extremely poorly, so I took the liberty of rewriting it, to make the game a more enjoyable experience for all players. Feel free to use this improved mechanic, which I call cyber-shutdown, described below.
Cyber-shutdown
In the game Cyberpunk RED, cyberpsychosis occurs when you install too many cyber-upgrades, and lose too much Humanity, which is based on your Empathy score. The gist is getting to much cyberware will cause you to lose your mind and start killing people (yikes!).
By contrast cyber-shutdown is when you get too much cyberware, which opens up your body to corporate takeover. Humanity is replaced with Security, which is your Will score multiplied by ten. Every modification decreases your Security, which makes you more vulnerable to cyber attack. Whenever a hacker or corporation tries to take control of your body, your mind, or other cyberware, they must roll a Tech check against your Security. They will role 1d10 x their Tech score, and if they roll higher than your Security, their hack is successful, and they seize control of some or all of you.
While in control of your body, the person or entity which hacked you can control any part of you that is cybernetic, while you remain in control of any human parts or biomedically engineered enhancements. Therefore, lab-grown enhancements or cosmetic surgery will not cost Security.
In order to escape cyber-shutdown, an experienced Medtech will need to make an opposing Tech check against your hackers to free you from your own body. However, you will also need to escape corporate police, who will try to eliminate you in order to cover up the cyberware attack on your body.
You could also be a victim of a ransomware attack, in which a hacker gains control of your body and puts you in cyber-shutdown in order to demand a ransom from family or friends. You will remain under the hacker's control until the random is paid or an experienced Medtech is able to free you.
Please feel free to boost this rules change, as I feel it is both more true to the spirit of the game and more inclusive of all kinds of players, who may be psychotic, lack empathy, or be otherwise disabled!
Hello, it's me again! It has come to my attention that many cyberpunk games use Humanity to simulate mental health, which is a whole other bag of worms. Humanity is affected by some drugs, as well as traumatic events. Additionally, when Humanity is reduced, it also reduces your empathy score. In light of these rules, I am updating my Cyber-shutdown rules to include a Mental Health score, detailed below.
Mental Health
Mental health can be affected by traumatic events and certain drugs, as well as therapy. In order to calculate your Mental Health stat, multiply your Willpower stat by 10. Unlike the Security stat, reducing the Mental Health stat will also reduce your Willpower stat, making you more susceptible to addictions and torture. It is reduced by a rate of 10:1; every 10 points of Mental Health loss will result in 1 point of Willpower loss.
If your Mental Health/Willpower is reduced to 0, you will enter a dissociative state as you attempt to grapple with the things you've seen and experienced. This will likely result in some kind of hospitalization or therapy in order to regain lost Mental Health and Willpower.
Therapy can restore lost Mental Health. It requires a Medtech and one week of time, during which either 2d6 or 4d6 of Mental Health can be restored, depending on the money spent. This is restored if the Medtech can pass a DV13 Medtech Check at the end of the week.
Let me know what everyone thinks! This mechanic isn't strictly necessary, but if you want to play a game involving addictions or traumatic events, but find Humanity offensive or have some other grievance against the mechanic, here's a solution. Have fun RPGing!
