listen ya'll

existing can be hard

so can running a podcast like ours

we are not immune from the bbegs of self-doubt and imposter syndrome. they creep up on us fairly often

but you know what helps? MEMES

so here are some that we made to remind us how RIDICULOUS our brains can be sometimes 🤪
A meme with a blue flag that reads: "Marked safe from the horrors of self-doubt today" A meme with four panels. The first shows an adventurer opening a chest in a crystal-strewn cave. They say: "I've finally found it... after years" The second shows the adventurer holding up a glowing scroll, saying: "The scroll of truth!" The third is a close-up of the scroll, which reads: "We are an award-nominated podcast" A meme of Gru from Despicable Me with four panels, each revealing a new phrase: 1. Create an award-nominated podcast 2. Help raise over $50,000 for Gaza 3. Think we suck 4. Think we suck, but with Gru looking at the page, horrified A meme of trump holding up a folder with two blank pages. The first reads: "I don't have a meme for this" The second reads: "I just let his existence fuel me"

@adamserwer.bsky.social's new article in the atlantic has a lot of bangers but omg THIS!!!

we need to talk more about the context of why games like d&d have the roots they do and why no media is safe from repeating past mistakes

acknowledge. understand. do better.
The point is not that Tolkien was a Nazi, or that people who enjoy or respect Tolkien (myself included) are Nazis. That would be a childish way to approach literature. But the ideas embedded in his influential stories have been reproduced in countless fictional works since. Few examples are more vivid than Dungeons & Dragons.

matriarchy is more than its definition

sure it's *technically* correct but think about how a society would look and act if ran by women

it would NOT be a reverse patriarchy like many would lead you to believe

according to experts it would be:

🟰 egalitarian
👨‍👩‍👦‍👦 family-focused
🍃 eco-consious

/1
the definition of matriarchy from mirriam-webster: 1. A family, group, or state governed by a matriarch 2. A system of social organization in which descent and inheritance are traced through the female line

we have a winner!!!

the second part of our slovenly sleuth special next month is in fact gnolls ✨️

we will be looking into them and beholders to investigate whether or not they are matriarchal 🔍

we've heard conflicting tales about both so we are taking it upon ourselves to FIGURE IT OUT
Gnoll from D&D 5e. A hyena-like creature on hind legs carrying a spear and wearing distressed armor Two beholdrs shooting layers from their eye stalks. Both are circular with one large eye in the middle of their floating heads and have large, pointed teeth.
