I think it's a squishbook

FATAL fixes this.

Can't believe they didn't call it analmancy

I should get a copy of this and then become a very specialized fortune teller... 🤔

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

There are many of us trying.

Is everything in it AI slop, or just the cover image?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 23 hours ago

This is an older book actually, 2019, pre AI slop

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Well, it was published in 2019 so...

[–] [email protected] -1 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Interesting! I wonder what they used for the cover art? Because I would bet on my life this is not a human anus.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago

It's probably just a traditional 3D render, it's a pretty simple design honestly.

Is the AI in the room with us right now?

[–] [email protected] -5 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (2 children)

Are you okay? Sorry if I hurt your feelings by assuming the thing that obviously isn’t a human asshole was AI, when we live in a world swimming in AI slop. I promise to be more judicious in accusing misleadingly labeled images of being AI slop in the future, when in fact they may be photoshop relics of the past, if it will make you feel better.

Have you ever considered that the reason you think we live in a "world swimming in AI slop" is because you falsely assume everything is AI slop?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Hold your horses, not everyone around here is a human asshole specialist.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

What species' assholes do the rest of them specialise in?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Well, now we definitely do.

Every time a pic of this book gets posted somewhere I get the urge to rewatch The Magicians because it reminds me of when Penny lost the ability to cast with his hands so the Librarians tried to teach him sphincter magic.

"Alright so now I'm a level 4 Anomancer. I'm gonna cast Wicked Flatulence. leaves a lingering cloud in the area. thats gonna be a CON saving throw."

You rolled a nat 20. Increase the circle of your AoE by 10 feet.

Have you divined anything already?

[–] [email protected] 15 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I need time. Everything will come.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Can I send you a picture of my asshole and would you be able to divine the winning lottery numbers for me?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 3 days ago

Save your pick-up lines for the club, buddy.

first of all, what
second of all, what
third of wall, hat

and why is this in the ttrpg memes community

[–] [email protected] 28 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

1: yep
2: uh huh
3: hat indeed.

That's one of the core spellcasting *mancy domains. Maybe in gurps? (The amount of people who can fact check me about gurps is statistically small, even in an RPG community)

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

You could definitely build Anomancy in GURPS with one of the alternative magic systems, probably Magic as Powers or Ritual Path Magic.

ETA: I was hasty, this is just the Divination(Physiognomy) spell from the base Magic system as described on M108-109.
