Wow yikes. You sound like fun at parties. Go find someone to care about.

For the record, I think there is a loneliness epidemic for both genders.

This is just a toxic gender wars meme. Go outside, touch some grass, meet someone nice and move on with life. Memes like this come from and perpetuate the loneliness epidemic.

Favourite lvl 1 adventures (ttrpg.network)
 

What is your favourite lvl 1 starting adventure?

I just ran "Nightmare over Ragged Hollow" by the Merry Mushmen with Moldvay Basic and it was a lot of fun. It's a good starting sandbox with 4 dungeons, a goal and you can easily slap in more content.

Project Gutenberg and librivox are decent resources for free older books. The author needs to have been dead for 70 years, so they are old but I've enjoyed "The Lost World" and "The hour of the dragon"

Drivethru RPG raises Print-on-demand prices starting April 1st (ttrpg.network)
 

Upcoming Print-on-Demand Book Price Changes – Effective April 1, 2025

We always want to keep print costs as low as possible, and it has been years since we passed any price increases through to our publishing partners.

However, our print supplier, Lightning Source/Ingram, has announced a price adjustment starting April 1, 2025, that will be reflected on DriveThru sites.

Key Changes

  • Due to increasing supply costs in the US, Black & White print costs in the US will increase significantly, from around 20% for low-pagecount hardcover titles up to about 50% or slightly more for large hardcover books, and with softcover titles seeing an even greater increase.

  • UK print costs for Black & White books will also increase, but generally only by 3-4%.

  • Standard Color print costs will increase, by roughly 12-13% for US printing but only around 3% for UK printing.

  • On the whole, Premium Color print costs will decrease slightly for US printing but increase slightly for UK printing.

Example 1: A 180-page large premium hardcover currently costs $32.10 to print in the US; after April 1, that same title will drop to $27.80.

Example 2: In the UK, the same 180-page book currently costs £20.23, which will increase to £20.93 starting in April.
