Featuring Bodhana on such a widely viewed RPG site is a fantastic thing to see! They are the real deal.

I don't roll the dice. I populate the area with a variety of things of different degrees of challenge from level appropriate to TPK level, including information from which the PCs pick and choose what they wish to tackle. If they ignore the information provided, jump right in without...

To my perspective what you describe sounds an awful lot like Railroading and a rotten or inexperienced GM.

This right here. It all comes down to choice, whether it's to go traipsing off towards TPK level danger or to go to stomp on a few ant hills first...GMs give you the information make a choice, you've got to accept the consequences of that choice regardless of the outcome.

Nice!! Admirable how the pain of loss was the catalyst for helping others. Another organization you might want to look at is The Bodhana Group. They're a 501(3)(c) non-profit organization based in York, Pennsylvania, who have been advocating therapeutic TTRPGs for over 10 years. They train other...

Do whatever is fun at our table. You don't need Tasha's Cauldron to do that. I see it like anything else released after the core game has been around for awhile: hey, here's some table rules we've been using for awhile or some table rules we've come across that seemed pretty interesting and...

I wish I could say the same. I find after a session of online gameplay, I come away feeling disappointed, like I wasted my time. It's just not fun for me. I've been running less and less due to the need to run online. Maybe it's my age (47). Sadly, my wife and three teenagers are not gamers, nor...

Regular for me - any game table not being run for therapeutic purposes, ie, in my own home or someone else's, at a Con. Calling mental issues baggage is not the best turn of phrase, just how I've always viewed my own issues. I have no problems making reasonable accommodations for those with...

You missed the first portion of the highlighted blurb "I'm all for being mindful,..." I follow the golden rule of treat others how I want to be treated. When I am aware of something, I don't go out of my way to trigger anyone. If I do say or do something, whether in game or in real life, which...

Feel free to disagree, but unless it's a therapeutic RPG session, I can't support the idea of the X-Card at the regular gaming table. After over 30 years of gaming, I've lost track of the number of times various GMs have run scenarios in which I got uncomfortable due to my own real life...

The only premium/collector's set I have ever considered purchasing was Modiphious' Star Trek Adventures: Borg Cube Box Set, currently selling for $247 US, with a collector's version going for $400. After I got past the WOW! of what was included, I came to the same conclusion I always come to...
