    Sorry for the downtime. Did an appalling number of upgrades while fixing the gif button. We’ve upgraded a few so let me know if you see anything broken. Feedback here.

    @Gashlycrumb Also, chances are most of the people you (general not specific) have a problem with have a similar opinion of you so 1) Why would they care? 2) Why would they be surprised? People are allowed to avoid games because of Staff (whether your own issue or in support of someone else) so it seems hypocritical to not allow Staff the same option especially when they’re the one putting in the effort to run the game.

    So I doubt anyone will know who I am but I figured I’d introduce myself. I used to be Thionoxial on MCM (I left like 18 years ago or something like that, maybe 15? LONG TIME AGO) - I was the fachead for their evil faction and plotstaff. I used to be Einara (Zelosian idealist working for the CIS who secretly helped the Jedi alot) on Star Wars: Generations I used to play Ioanna on a VTM Dark Ages game set in Iberia. I played (until I had a nervous breakdown over my gender) a daeva lawyer based on Elle from Legally Blonde on some VTM Revised game, but only for a few months, about 5-6 years ago during COVID. pronouns are she/her if your cis and straight, she/they if your cis and queer, or they/she if your trans. (yes its complicated so am I). I have a B.S. in Physics with minors in astrophysics and mathematics. I’m 43 and I’ve been mushing since I was ~9. I’ve been trying to be on computers less the past year so I can live life instead of writing about it, life is too short. Other facts about me: My mom died 3 weeks ago and the last thing she ever said to me was (she was transphobic) that she spent her whole life fighting her urge to be a boy and never realized other girls didn’t feel that way. I used to be a buddhist but I’ve been an atheist for ~3 weeks now. There is nothing else interesting about me. I just wanted to introduce myself. Musical tastes: punk/post-punk Reading: scifi/fantasy Favorite Authors: Tolkien, Brandon Sanderson, Elizabeth Moon, Ursula K. LeGuin I play a LOT of online tabletop. I’m currently in a VTM Dark Ages campaign and an Exalted vs WOD campaign.

    @Pavel said: someone oversteps something that I didn’t know was a boundary until after they stepped over. what’s fun is when you overstep your own boundary without realizing it and hurt your own feelings minutes later. “oooh, this will add some emotional juice!!” … “oh god, shit, the juice is too juicy.”

    @junipersky Absolutely. There’s a lot I could say about industrialization as an epistemological framework and how it doesn’t always do education and human welfare justice. But this is not the place for it! Just, I absolutely understand your frustration and share it.

    Hello old friends. Don’t worry I promise this will not be a regular thing. But I wanted to let folks know I am streaming again, if any of you want to stop by a chat at any point. You can find me at: https://www.twitch.tv/desideriumash I am going to be streaming a cozy library clean up game (you clean up over 3k books that got knocked off selves with magic powers), will be likely streaming boardgames with EmmahSue and Thenomain tomorrow (maybe), and vampire farming sim Moonlight Peaks on Fridays. Stop by if you want!
