#introduction time again.
Hi everyone! I'm Elizabeth. I am a freelance editor, specialising in SF/F.
When I don't have my nose stuck in a book, I can be found playing TTRPGs. At the moment, I'm playing in a campaign of Mouse Guard.
I am also the caretaker of one cranky grandma of a dog, of whom you can expect the occasional photo.

You don't *vote* for Friend Computer. That would be silly, like voting whether you want to be reassigned as nuclear reactor shielding or not.
It's a busy weekend for me. Played some #DND5E at #UUCQC last night with my fellow #UUs, starting Dragons of Stormwreck Isle, and coming back to play #HandChimes this morning with the Chalice Chimes. Then tonight is another rehearsal for #JusticeChoir.

Guns & Repression is a delightfully tropey and fun little game. It's basically #Supernatural as a one-page #ttrpg.
Tonight, we vanquished a demon that was terrorising a hospital. "Cleo Cooper" used her ex-cop skills to dig up some information, "Lee Enfield" (me) chatted up a waitress and got details of her sick mum who was conveniently on the Death Ward, and "John Browning Jr" went one-on-one with the demon and temporarily chased it off.
We worked out that we needed blessed silver, so Cleo and I left JB undercover (and under covers) pretending to be sick to watch the ward and went to find the nearest open place of worship. The folks at the gurdwara were wary, but Cleo was persuasive (as was a significant donation to their soup kitchen) and a pile of silver knives and bullets got some nice words spoken over them.
A good plan, a circle of salt, and a lucky roll later and the demon was killed (or at least banished). The waitress's mum was saved, the rest of the patients were safe, and the doctors were very glad to see the back of us.
There's no space for character progression, learning new skills, etc. But sometimes you just want to jump in and play, without spending significant time on character creation or worrying about whether it'll be fun for more than a few hours. Any derivative of Lasers and Feelings, with its single-stat mechanic and roll&play scenario generation, is perfect for those days.

@Anxious_Agender if you play any tabletop RPG games, there is one that also teaches ASL.

Where can I learn ASL? There's a regular who comes in who only speaks ASL. We only have one employee who knows ASL and we do not have any picture menus.
I want to make her experience as best as possible but I have a really hard time.
Does anyone know where I can learn ASL??? I'm willing to pay for it if I have to, I really just want to be able to help her properly 😞

In German #folklore, churches were one of the most direct links to the supernatural for most people, for it is from there where God's blessings flowed to the community. Accordingly, there were an abundance of folk tales associated with them:
- Omens and signs which led to the founding of the church building at a particular spot. For instance, a certain construction site might be beset by accidents and the materials would always turn up elsewhere until the builders would get the hint.
- Omens which gave hints to the future, if you visit the church on certain holy nights - for instance, if you visit the church during the night of the New Year, you would see a parade of people who were destined to die the next year.
- There is a rich mythology about church bells who would fly away on their own or sink into lakes if they were not properly blessed.
- The Devil would show up in church and kill or abduct people who misbehave, such as by chatting during the sermon or play cards during mass.
- On certain nights of the year, there would be ghostly masses where the deceased members of the community would gather, and sometimes one of the living would stumble into them.
- There were also certain magical rituals that would allow the mage to spot all witches in the congregation, as they would be sitting backwards.
And many further tales. If you are a #ttrpg worldbuilder, you might also contemplate what kinds of myth and folklore surrounds the temples and other places of worship in your world!
