Why I am Angry
golden-zephyr: {I was asked to add a warning for an image of covered dead bodies—so warning} I get told often that I am “angry” and I should just ‘chill out’ and ‘knock it off’… No one ever listens to why I am angry, in fact, I don’t think anyone ever asks. But, I’m going to tell you anyway. This morning I was very upset by a tweet that Joey from A Softer World tweeted—something about...

karnythia: I’ve been tweeting all morning about #rapeculture & #abuseculture, and someone asked me what I meant when I referred to Strong People Myths. I think some/most of us are familiar with the Strong Black Woman Trope right? Right. For those that are unfamiliar with it, it can best be summed up as the idea that black women are so strong they don’t need help, protection, care, or...

You know what's funny?
Nobody ever seems to say, “Gender doesn’t exist, therefore all these labels are arbitrary and meaningless, therefore it doesn’t matter what I call you, therefore I have no reason to use any terms other than the ones you choose for yourself. Neither I nor no one else has a horse in this race, so the way you identify is all anybody has to go on.” Nobody even ever seems to...

Yes, that includes...

null-set asked: Regarding your plans for writing up your RPG: I have read some RPG documents written like you described, and I found them pretty hard to use. Have you considered writing the system up in the freeform descriptive way you are good at, and then taking that and working with someone who is good at technical writing to make the end product?
