New intro (2nd attempt 🤫)
Hi, I'm Lyssa and one half of the @slovenlytrulls.com podcast where we analyze D&D lore from a modern, intersectional feminist lens.
TLDR; early D&D was sexist af.
I sometimes do APs, my playstyle has been described as "Looney Tunes." I bring the fun! 💅✨

It seems like only yesterday that we held the Doomspiral Launch party.
It was such a brilliant night full of amazing costumes, dramatic boss battles and Mol going full "weird lil guy".
A massive shoutout to @moonshineadventure.bsky.social, The Arcanists Tavern and everyone who came along.

Brimstone Angels is one of the better ttrpg novels I've read. It's not perfect but in a sea of very questionable books with very questionable depictions of women and minoritites, it's a breath of fresh air

Update to this chart that I share a lot. Not breaking news: Game design teams are still OVERWHELMINGLY all men. About 7% of the top 500 games have a woman or non-binary person credited as a designer. A 🧵of related charts: (1/6)

One thing I would like to add to the conversations about diversity in AP casting: we have got to stop rewarding and frankly cheering on shows with all-white casts, all white-main casts (where POC are relegated to a few guest appearances), and overwhelmingly white casts.
