This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Your Solo RPG Game Must Use Safety Tools!!

Quote from: D-ko on February 26, 2025, 03:09:31 PMI almost died checking the wiring for a new 240 volt plug for a friend and the moment I touched the dryer vent, the entire thing disintegrated in front of me. Two hands on that machine and I likely would be dead. Apparently they use the machine itself as a ground, so when the wiring is wrong the entire machine can become live. I still got a zap, but nothing that did any noticeable damage. Honestly I've felt better than ever, but then I really cannot endorse electrocution outside of a doctor recommended setting (e.g. electroconvulsive therapy).

Oh, come on! The 60hz Shuffle is one of my favorite dance moves! ;)

Her channel gets another vote from me; I've been watching her content for years.
I know how the illegals feel. I'm an alcoholic & they keep setting up these random DUI checkpoints. You have no idea what a chilling effect this has had on the alcoholic community. I know people who are too terrified to even drink & drive anymore. I am literally shaking... mostly in my hands...

In my networking class today we made ethernet cables, so I brought a bunch of crimpers and cat5 ends and cabling. When trying to help one of the students I accidentally cut my finger open and starting bleeding. "This is what you don't do" I said as I cleaned up blood with a tissue. Maybe I should have been wearing one of those kevlar gloves.
It takes considerable knowledge just to realize the extent of your own ignorance.

Quote from: I on February 25, 2025, 09:12:26 PMAh, yes.  When I spend a romantic evening home alone pleasuring myself -- candles, scented Kleenex, the whole bit -- I'm careful to use safety words with myself to avoid hazards like a wrenched back, stained or broken furniture, short-circuited electronic devices, inserted-beyond-retrieval items, etc.  Don't really see how that would transfer to solo gaming, though.

Don't forget a condom.

UGH! What next?

This is why I tend to dislike human beings in general. I think we are doomed if that type of baby thinking ever becomes the norm.

Nothing can top me slicing open my pinkie pulling on a heavyweight transparent thin-cord string hanging out of the stitching of an old padded gym wall backstop. It didn't even bleed the cut was so thin, but it was damn deep. Glad I didn't hit any nerves or anything. Kept it really clean as it grew back-- I just felt like an idiot for slicing my finger on a string.

As for solo gaming, honestly I can't dive into erotic stuff or it ruins most games. You don't need safety cards or anything... it's quite obvious. I'd rather go on an adventure and survive the elements.
