Just got near explosively angry remembering a Christmas quiz I was in at an old job - I got marked down on the question 'How many ghosts visited Scrooge on Christmas Eve?' for writing 'four'. I was livid.

So D&D is medieval (kinda sorta) in its clothing and technology, with castles and knights and things you might find in medieval *literature* like wizards and dragons, but it has a lot of elements of the western in how it thinks about "civilisation" and "wildness" and whatnot.

Related to conversations about fantasy adventure and colonialism: one thing that is very interesting about D&D's medievalism is that its default geography -- frontiers, large areas of wilderness, etc. -- is not particularly what medieval W. Europe was like.

Strong reminder that rights granted are rights that can be stripped. Just because we currently have a pretty favourable legal framework with regard to LGB rights, they aren't irrevocable. It's vital to understand the current attacks on trans rights as a stand-in for a broader attack on LGBQ rights.
