Folks, I need your help. I want to run a Rapscallion AP set in the world of Pasha the Storm. But in order to get any kind of marketing budget from my publishers, I need preorders. If you want to see me run a table of bawdy pirates through a magical action-adventure fantasy, snag yourself a copy.

Moby-Dick meets The Bone Shard Daughter in this swashbuckling queer fantasy adventure packed with piracy, political intrigue, and the eternal souls of the drowned, for fans of The Adventures of Amina ...

"The task of the artist is determined always by the status and process and agenda of the community that it already serves... As a cultural worker who belongs to an oppressed people my job is to make revolution irresistible." Toni Cade Bambara
Benito is a threat b/c he makes art so alluring and enjoyable you want to understand everything about it and then you end up learning about sugar and slavery and colonialism and the Taínos and Hawaii and then you probably have some thoughts of your own, and that's why art is powerful and dangerous

I'm not kidding when I say this should be illegal, even if it weren't also a transparent scam on this idiot's part.

The SPARTACUS shows are as interested in class, star-crossed romances and historical looseness as any regency drama but they're way hornier, way clearer-eyed about what class really means and when tensions boil over people get their shit gruesomely rocked. They rock so hard dude

'protect your peace' and 'pick your battles' are good advice for most, but it's ignorant not to know it as privilege. some people were minding their business when the battle picked them; some people are the battle

Fun Fact, the original title for All's Fair was "Nasha Barridge Stopped a Fascist Regime by Wanting to Fuck Her Pathetic Boyfriend Crazy Style and You Can Too"

All's Fair is a great title but I do appreciate that the original title captures the chaos and obsession with which the game was conceived

Rise, Wizards by Robin Ekberg is a map-making dice-stacking game about hubris-filled wizards. All's Fair by Dillin Apelyan is an 18+ duet game about wanting to f*ck each other so bad you save the wor...

Right now Pitt fanfic is good, but in a few years it'll be incredible. We need time for the fandom to mature, like a good wine. The longfics need to be completed. the BNFs need to be established. The show has everything a fandom needs to survive for decades and they are stockpiling.
