@Ren_Ardana but at heart I'm a huuuuge fan of falafel, curry, and noodle dishes of all kinds! oh, and I cook a pretty good vegan lasagna ❤️
@Ren_Ardana I've still never read Akira! The movie is absolutely beautiful, of course, but you can tell they had to rush the story and leave a lot out. Diamond Age is a great novel!! I like Hitchhiker's Guide, Feed, Jennifer Government, the Culture series, and I have a soft spot for older Star Wars EU stuff too even if most of it was silly, hehe
Black bean burgers are great! and burritos are definitely a staple for me, we have a local place that uses all locally-grown ingredients that's rly nice
@Ren_Ardana I tend to like really weird games, both on the crunchier end of the spectrum (Exalted, Weapons of the Gods) and the simpler end (Fiasco, Monsterhearts)! In general I like systems that want to have a voice in how you play them and what kinds of stories you make, and which enforce their genre conceits in the rules. If it's a generic system, I want it simple and out of the way (like Fate Accelerated). I'm not a huge fan of D&D, but I do like 4E and Pathfinder's settings and 5E's rules.
@Ren_Ardana Hi and welcome! What games do you like ? do you have a favorite moment from a trpg session ? What's your favorite scifi media and why is it the Ancillary trilogy? what foods do you like ?

@Yarideki looks like you can get custom made ones much cheaper, too:

still minimum order of 100 though
@Yarideki kb covers has a bunch but not bulgarian

you can always get it custom made if you have 49 friends who want one too (or want to sell the extras)

@lizardsquid @cute_weeds In both the US and Canada there's no documentation or fees necessary, you just follow a link on paypal's website and your account is converted
it sucks that it's not so simple elsewhere but it also sucks that we're at the mercy of a for-profit company to do what should be a government service

@cute_weeds Paypal does have a per-transaction fee now, which sucks bunches if you were planning to give less than like $50, yeah :( you can avoid deadnaming by converting your accounts to business accounts though, which doesn't change anything about how the site works except that you can change your display name and create/send invoices
kofi is just Paypal
liberapay is looking for a new payment processor but their plan is to do what you want, if you can wait a few months…
