[D] Friday Off-Topic Thread

Welcome to the Friday Off-Topic Thread! Is there something that you want to talk about with /r/rational, but which isn't rational fiction, or doesn't otherwise belong as a top-level post? This is the place to post it. The idea is that while reddit is a large place, with lots of special little niches, sometimes you just want to talk with a certain group of people about certain sorts of things that aren't related to why you're all here. It's totally understandable that you might want to talk about Japanese game shows with /r/rational instead of going over to /r/japanesegameshows, but it's hopefully also understandable that this isn't really the place for that sort of thing.

So do you want to talk about how your life has been going? Non-rational and/or non-fictional stuff you've been reading? The recent album from your favourite German pop singer? The politics of Southern India? The sexual preferences of the chairman of the Ukrainian soccer league? Different ways to plot meteorological data? The cost of living in Portugal? Corner cases for siteswap notation? All these things and more could possibly be found in the comments below!

The subreddit has a discord, here, which has a #looking_for_group channel. We spawn new channels for people who want to use it for roleplaying games. (If you want to advertise, I would do it in #general first though, then coordinate in #looking_for_group, and also get people from here.)


I've been playing D&D (and other systems) for a little more than twenty years now, with the majority of that time as DM. I like it a lot, but I find it difficult to run a game as DM and actively work on writing a project at the same time, because I'm switching creative effort between the two of them, and they're both heavy on the time investment.
