Girl’s Love so lesbian. Yuri, baihe, etc. BL is Boy’s Love. Yaoi, Danmei.

Martial World is a long webnovel that I actually think encapsulates a lot of features of the cultivation genre, though it does have its share of brainworms and anime bullshit, like the main character having multiple wives and a few problematic scenes involving them. It does spill a lot of digital ink on the progression of the main character through cultivation realms, which is the shit I live for. It’s the long-running shounen version of the genre, imo (while I have some titles under my belt, I don’t know too awful many).

I haven’t read Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation as mentioned, but I did watch the donghua and found it quite good, though I don’t remember anything about it’s progression system. A great option for a more drama-oriented entry. BL (I also only know danmei as BL).

I remember really liking The Dragon, which is GL, though it may also be more a fun and dramatic romance set in a cultivation setting than a cultivation novel.

“A Knight’s Tale” is a sports comedy but about jousting

A family friend graduated from a liberal arts college, had an R congressperson come for commencement. He just rambled about AI and also medical advancements like the US hasn’t had a falling life expectancy. Probably a pretty similar speech to this robot’s.

Yeah, I can see where you’re coming from. Only looking at some of the SRD stuff, it looks like Blades gives you 7 dots across 12 actions? The hack that I was playing (Blades of the Immortals) had 6 dots across 9 actions and spilled a lot of ink to stress that making the players feel incompetent is bad and should be avoided, partially due to the genre being more dramatic than grim and grimy.

From my understand of running a single Forged in the Dark session Saturday, I would have thought that just relying on conditions and debuffs in general isn’t the intention, and they want you to be creative and use clocks and have narrative or situational consequences be tied to them.

It’s like when people lay low after being caught up in a scandal, they’re actually being disappeared by the government

3gatsu no Lion is my all time fave, just some deeply empathic storytelling with the Shaft aesthetic while also not being problematic like the Monogatari Series nor being about magical girls.

Vampire the Masquerade, if only because I’m not into being bad guys. Love the vibes, vamps are fun, but I find it just a little too dark to want to RP as or write about.

Same with Fire Emblem 3 Houses, multiple bi and some gay romance options. And Edelgard is the Empress of the Proletariat. You can romance your (former) students so maybe it’s on there for libertarianism?

I thought the guy was a traitor? Though from what I half remember it was more opportunistic than principle.

Wasn’t Bucha the place that had pictures of bodies with the white armbands (Russian collaborators in occupied territories) and Russian ration packs in the background and everyone was like “Russia did this!”
