I love it when I read something that triggers an understanding that had been eluding me. In this case, it's one of the failures of modern media mapping its way into TTRPGs. Obsessive validation.

Veilguard and the Obsessive Validation - Grim Tokens

The infestation of soft sensibility and utter validation is eroding gaming.

a lot of recent life uncertainty is making me yearn for a cozy game escape, so I might try out Iron Valley, a cozy solo ttrpg hack for Ironsworn and Starforged that's based on Stardew Valley. Has anyone tried it before? https://mkirin.itch.io/iron-valley #soloRPG #IronValley

Palmer family joined our settlement last year. They brought the idea of making backyard greenhouses and plots for gardening for people moving in, so they could help themselves and community.
This year their greenhouse "industry" brought first fruit.
Best summer water source!
Just hope other families like Palmers will move in soon.

As a part of community my task is to run various deliveries around the Hinterlands. Monday is a Bread day, so loading pickup and heading to Woodlake.
Do you participate in any communal tasks?

So!! This is my iron valley character. I only got a little ways into it last night but decided I for sure needed a character appearance. You can find the character maker I used here: https://jazzybee.itch.io/sdvcharactercreator

Getting started with Iron valley. Newbie to mastodon. Hello hello, names timber. #ironvalley #intropost #newbie

Just bought Grandpa's Farm #ttrpg by Tyler Crumrine with adorable illustrations by Evlyn Moreau. This should help give me my #StardewValley fix when I'm away from my computer. I considered this one and Iron Valley. I ultimately chose Grandpa's Farm because of its streamlined simplicity. Also, I really like #BeakFeatherAndBone from the same creator. I may give #IronValley a try in the future, but for now, I'll be settling into #GrandpasFarm.

So, I've been putting together all kinds of template sheets for Iron Valley, organizing things andall that good stuff, but haven't started playing it yet. I'd really like to and start journalling my exploits over here in daily little stories just because. If I can pull myself out of the fun as heck prepping phase and actually do it, I think it would be a fun short exercise for writing something daily. #IronValley
