I'm Faye Weaver, neurodivergent lefty queer with pronouns (she/her) doing my bit to turn the friggin' frogs gay. I make and play weird games while trying to survive amidst the blood-soaked machinery of capitalism.

Zephyr sounds so cool by the way! The concept of a world literally built of emotions is beautiful. Plus the art is sick as hell!

This is also super helpful btw, thank you!

Oh yeah, to be clear, I wasn't arguing that she doesn't have enough to pay her people. I was just trying to understand how it breaks down. In any case, I feel like the ethical way to handle these kinds of payments is to pay yourself *last,* not fuck over your collaborators to get your slice.

It does, thank you!

I did some napkin math at one point and figured that about 10-20% of a kickstarter would probably go to actually paying people (including the lead designer) after printing and fulfillment costs, platform fees, and other overhead. Does that sound right to you?

Yeah. I’m just starting to learn more about the actual business of TTRPGs. I make these things for love, but not talking about money doesn’t make it go away.

I genuinely think this is a problem that isn't talked about enough in leftist / anarchist circles. Egalitarian / horizontal organization sounds great, but it can so easily be undermined by people accumulating or leveraging invisible concentrations of power.

Well, Commorragh sucks ass to live in *unless* you're a member of the evil ruling elite. So I'd argue that it's just an Omelas but without a middle class to mask the existence of the Basement Kid? 🤔

Such a damning quote, and a good reminder that being queer and using leftist language does not prevent someone from acting in cruel, selfish ways.

Yeah, absolutely. Thank you for posting this. It's utterly unfair and horrendous that you and so many others had to endure such treatment and the subsequent silencing.

It's a huge, stinking bummer but I'd always rather see the ugly truth beneath the mask. So thank you again for tearing it off.

Well, I just joined Bluesky and hate that my first re-post is the discovery that a queer designer I respected is apparently a huge piece of shit who not only weaponizes her social capital but also used her position to pull the ladder up behind her and buy a golden parachute, but here we are. 😀
