tbh I get why we got frustrated with it BUT it would behoove us all to bring back "anything can be queer unless explicitly stated otherwise" as opposed to the current wasteland of "it's only queer if the character fucks somebody of the same gender on screen and then says "I did it in a gay context"

Charlie Kirk spent his life‘s work and all of his energy and time targeting out-groups while arguing for a world in which gun massacres would be easy to enact, plentiful, and inevitable, and he became famous and wealthy doing it, and we’re now not supposed to mention that because it’s not polite.

The reaction to Kirk’s death by liberals truly shows how incapable they are of understanding that structural violence in the form of harassment, promoting laws, spewing hateful rhetoric, and making hit list very literally KILLS PEOPLE, and in high numbers. Kirk was a killer of hundreds to thousands

I have just learned of #SapphicSeptember and decided to put Corps à Corps on sale for the month. You know, for unrelated reasons. Anyway, if GM-optional, stat-raising sports TRPGs are your jam--enjoy! I'll be busy reading sapphic fiction. (Reposted to edit link) arisia.itch.io/corps-a-corp...

It's the best time of the year! #SapphicSeptember is here and one of this year's themes is sapphic knights, which is one of my favorite things to both write and read about. You can get this lesbian-centered, trans-inclusive, high heat Arthuriana series direct at my shop: riengray.shop ⚔️

Read this and at the bottom, you will find a link. Clicking it will get you in for the ride. Wanna come along? #ttrpg #PBTA #AWBurned #ApocalypseWorld www.belloflostsouls.net/2025/09/apoc...

I am writing about this today. Transphobe logic is that trans people only have rights *until* they come into conflict with a cis person. And not just a cis person's legally defined rights, but a cis person's comfort or emotions (which are discretionary and not legally protected).

I don't get how people don't realize that a technology that replaces junior and entry level positions in a field destroys that field. There's no skipping steps. You have to be a junior before you can be a senior, and if you don't have senior people, you don't have a field.

DIE the RPG campaign but what binds you all is your collective chuunibyou phase

We might have blown past our expectations a little! The Beta Version of TACTICS MEMORIAM releases on a pay-what-you-want basis on Monday! We’d rather anything you would give go towards the Kickstarter (opening its pledges soon!) to fund the full book. So enjoy yourself with what we have made :)

If an individual offering consensual nudes of themself on OnlyFans is considered “illicit” but a program generating nudes of women without their consent is fine, the powers that be have made their priorities clear. And they’re the same as they ever were.

There’s been a disconnect for a couple yrs between published feminist interpretations of anime / games / manga and how female fans who are feminists actually feel about this issue. A lot of women like Senran Kagura and Stellar Blade. Note: The anime community has more queer women than the mainstream

TTRPGs are cheaper than pretty much all forms of entertainment. They don't get mass appeal because they run precisely counter to the creeping atomisation of society, cannot be easily monetized into subscription models, and they are corralled into the single largest creative monopoly ever seen.

Recently reminded of this Kevin Crawford AMA, and it remains everything.

Playtester’s blessing

just a reminder again that we were told over and over that a 13 year old downloading a Limp Bizkit mp3 was an existential threat to society

I get sick of being told “well, we have to take their concerns seriously.” No we don’t! Their concerns are completely made up! We shouldn’t even gesture at maybe taking them seriously, especially when what they want is to take rights away from someone!

...are better than this. Games demonstrating a better understanding of the themes and ideas spread across those movies. Between the last KS campaign and this one, this company's depth goes no deeper than "we statted catbus!" No thanks, the creativity is warmer in the indie space.

CITY!!

this sounds fun

So I'm not allowed to sell video games with hand crafted fictional titties but Twitter can freely generate porn of real people without consent

Watanare had some really cute moments well-served by lively animation, but sadly barely touched on its deeper ideas. I've rarely seen the terror of romance--and the overwhelming, almost destructive force of its emotions--approached this way, and I wish the anime had gotten into it further.

If you're from a country with a weaker economy or difficult entry requirements into the US: do not spend money on GDC. Do not book a ticket. Do not book a hotel. Do not pay for a visa. Skip that cynical for-profit extortion, or the US will take your money & spit you out. www.pbs.org/newshour/pol...

CITY Episode 5 showed the world yet again why KyoAni was highly revered among animeniacs. Me being me, I was amused that at the end of the day the insanity of multiple plots happening at the same time kind of all started because one woman didn't want another woman to find out she liked her.

‼️NEW PUBLIC PATREON POST‼️ What makes a person a person in Philippine folklore? What does it mean to die in the world I'm building? I try to answer these in this month's Patreon post. More Hinilawod propaganda 😤 www.patreon.com/posts/essenc...

Anyone talking about the 90s like it was a feminist haven free of a manosphere has clearly forgotten about what the 90s was actually like or never bothered to study it

Sure it CAN be useful, but because of how our society IS right now it fucking won't be. It'll make a dead internet and ruin jobs and fuck up communities and erode everyone's brains and destroy the planet. I think think it's pointless to care about genAI right now. Care about the world first!

Can we maybe get people to boycott Ultimate Guard? Just buy a different brand of sleeves and boxes. Literally all I’m asking. Like I know people push back every time we ask them to boycott something for trans rights but maybe this is a manageable one?
