some days the only perscription is writing more d36 tables

yeah basically. like, if you want trans people in things it starts with trans people behind things. the reduction of 'representation' entirely to the stated identities of onscreen characters misses the entire point!

as a fan of noncon, dubcon and under/non-negotiated cnc this is honestly one of the most straightforward explanations of this i've ever read?

BREAKING: Israel has ordered shut the Allenby Crossing, the only gateway for three million Palestinians in the West Bank to the outside world, “until further notice,” in what appears to be a response to the wave of recognition of Palestine by UN member states including key European allies.

Now, more than ever, you should buy the trans woman in your life a sword

a chilling warning to america from 2004 !

The first game from THE VAULT is The Wizard's and the Wastes, which is my game of wizard bargaining where you use your fav novel, album, or whatever as your magic tome. If you give me money, you'll get ALL the stuff from the game: pdfs, indesign files, etc. So go do it. Your mom is already there~

i love my city and i love this fucking deer!!!!

MAGA 3 days ago: Chicago is about to find out the meaning of WAR MAGA today: the left needs to stop condoning violence

Alright, my dearies. Here we go. Join us for the ride? www.kickstarter.com/projects/lum...

THEY'RE CALLED MECHA, COOP. REAL WACKADOO STUFF THE BOYS BACK AT LANGLEY HAVE BEEN COOKING UP. ENORMOUS ROBOT BODIES THAT'LL WIN THE NEXT TEN WARS. BUT HERES THE KICKER: THEY CAN ONLY BE DRIVEN BY MALNOURISHED TEENAGE LESBIANS. TRANSGENDERS TOO IF THEY'RE MALNOURISHED ENOUGH.

so im loving silksong but also i need to say that i've never equipped the compass once. im just like orienteering purely on the shapes of rooms and it feels amazing. i love this and am gunna see if i can go the entire game without using the compass. i havent even gotten lost!!!

I thought a good while about doing this given how everyone is hard up these days, and I also *don't* like asking for money. But here we are. Studying is expensive, and for Reasons, I can't take a loan this round. Please donate if you can! Otherwise, sharing helps.

A Rascal sister site has launched: @roguesite.bsky.social Former-Polygon writers have gotten together to launch a worker-owned video game journalism outlet (with a little rascally help). If you mourned the loss of one site, celebrate the birth of another, and support the people making it happen.

Long read: For around one year, indie publisher Plus One Exp operated as a business unit within a shipping and warehousing company called Brandfox. They worked with Possum Creek Games, Stockholm Kartell, among others. It was disastrous for almost everyone involved. www.rascal.news/plus-one-exp...

It’s the final stretch: Dragon Reactor’s crowdfunding campaign ends in TWO DAYS! This is your last chance to get early access to the project and to show your support for the mythopoetic mech tragedy #ttrpg!

Just launched Le Vent Rouge: a dice placement game of competitive larceny in FRANCE very excited about this one from some of the developers of DICE THRONE

Former Zatu Games employees described a toxic, stressful workplace within one of the UK's largest tabletop game distributor, including overuse of apprenticeships and repeated Christmas mass firings. Zatu has vehemently denied most of these claims.

MARE SYNCHRONOS IS SHUTTING DOWN

We confirmed just now that we have a matching doner who'll double what we get up to $5000, right now that puts us at almost $3000 with just under a week to go! Please share this around and make a post about it if you can't donate!

I hope everybody is noticing that public and private universities all over the country are dismantling religious studies programs as white christian nationalists are ascendant in all levels of our government

horses are dragons are mechs. horse girls are dragon riders are mech pilots. do you understand?

This is exactly--and I mean exactly--how Holocaust deniers have long discredited the Final Solution being a concerted effort & high-level order. "The Jews in the camps all died of typhoid outbreaks"

WE NEED YOUR HELP WHO ARE THOSE MYSTERIOUS BANKING PARTNERS TELLING PAYPAL WHAT GAMES THEY CAN AND CAN'T PROCESS PAYMENTS FOR? LET'S FIND THEM AND CALL THEM! stop-paypros.neocities.org#paypal-partn...

FEMA funding is cut or frozen for much of the united states with our government committed to further destroying any safety net for those most vulnerable. Disaster seasons is coming and @distributeaid.org wants to make communities ready. itch.io/b/3228/the-d...

A reminder that John Boyne can't even be bothered to write his own books.

The very fact that support staff can either be so misinformed as to assume the worst possible policy or so malicious as to misinform others is actually even MORE of a reason to never stop calling, assume the worst, and force them to assure they won’t stand for censorship of any shape or shade.

i'm so done with the itch discourse but i think it's both fair to say that they're not doing things to be intentionally harmful while also fair to say that it was a bad idea to have so much important infrastructure riding on a platform like itchio and they have handled a lot poorly as a result

It actually sucks how many people are pushing for a boycott of itch, which is already impacting queer and trans artists*, while not a single peep about steam or boycotting anything there.

More and more people reporting today that Stripe - the payment processor that Itch said were putting the most pressure on them - now have staff actively confirming that yes, they are censoring LGBT content, adult or otherwise. That this is official company policy. This seems kinda significant.

hey look! a video of matthew from @wetinkgames.bsky.social and i jamming a game together on the delirious sunday morning of gen con! this one is super fun youtu.be/4tc4Nw9fIKo?...

Tapping the sign

Welcome to the weekend! You made it sailor. Which censorious payment processor would you like to call first? Thanks to my moot @dieselbrain.bsky.social for the Stripe number, can confirm it works stop-paypros.neocities.org

Dragon Reactor is officially FUNDED! Thank you all so, so much for helping us make this project real. Quinn and I are so excited to finish this game, wmand we know you're gonna love it. We still have 2 weeks left in the campaign, and more pledges means more pay for our team!

As the TTRPG media sphere contracts, we're expanding -- Rascal is hiring a news writer! We're running a short 2 week pledge drive, offering a 6 month, 25% discount, celebrating our Diana Jones Award... nomination... in order to support this new hire.

Something we discovered during our fruitful zap session today- I've added it to the initiative page. cartoonist.coop/censorship-p...

in any mature, "solved" industry with real competition profit falls, slowly approaching zero. capitalism wants growth more than solutions. acts of intentional destruction make room for high growth investment in previously mature sectors what is intentionally destroyed can include "your mortal body"

listen i get that a lot of y'all white/non-black game designers think "Hoodoo/Voodoo Daddy" is a scary fun concept that can be throw into your games but that is a very real religion people practice to this day, it's not just some fantasy concept you can slap on top of some offensive artwork

It's time to talk about Conflict in Dragon Reactor- what is it, how does it work, and why is it a race? What do Burdens and Boons do at a table? What is the least lucky die roll Nova's ever seen? www.backerkit.com/c/projects/d...

okay let's go FRIDAY, OCTOBER 10TH GENDERFUCKED VARIETY HOUR AND TRANS MAKER VEND AT THE HISTORIC LEATHER ARCHIVES & MUSEUM CHICAGO, ILLINOIS Hosted by eri lucia kapling and C. Russell Price

I am designing a box

Dragon Reactor is a love letter to the mech & mecha genres, a game that's in deep conversation not only with the shows and stories that inspired it, but with the video and tabletop games that came before. It's personal, it's intense, and it's beautiful. Help us bring it to life!

Play and discuss as if you were friends trying to get to know each other better, rather than as if you were rival squawking merchants trying to sell competing goods in a marketplace. The world is full of friends and potential friends, and it's much lonelier and more frightening when it isn't.

TTRPG SPACE TREAT YOUR ARTISTS BETTER AND STOP TRYING TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THEM AND THEN NOT CREDITING THEM WHEN THE TIME COMES

new katamari and new twilight imperium, good day for the kind of weirdo i am
