New account, time for an #introductions.
I'm a white guy, more or less living at the top of Privilege Mountain, trying to learn to dismantle and undermine that privilege.
Things I'm into:
• #Roleplaying
• #Linguistics
• #SocialJustice
• #Software
• #Parenting
• #Reading
• #Videogames
• #Kindposting
• #Lego
• #Comics
• #Argyle
Things I'm (interested in?) learning about:
• #Socialism
• #Coops
• #UrbanPlanning
• And all the stuff above, naturally.
This is, of course, incomplete. 🤷🏻♂️
Continuing #introductions:
In 2018 (at 36), I realized my sexuality wasn't as straightforward (or straight) as I'd previously thought. It's more complicated because of course it is, but I generally consider myself bi/pan .
Good morning, gentles all. I _did_ sleep last night. Not great, but better than nothing. I hope everyone’s having a great day. 💖
Alright, let's play a game.
Boosts appreciated, the wider the reach, the more useful the responses.
Please suggest to me 1 - 5 channels on peertube, vemio, or youtube with under 1000 subscribers, that are producing interesting or worthwhile content.
Sketches and jokes! Video Essays! Concert films! You name it.
Show me your favorite works from small creators. I'm going to do a thing to highlight some of them.
I love this thread about being a parent to a trans kid. https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1377287133921116160.html
D&D shit
Of all the things I expected to enjoy creating this campaign I did not expect it to be millenia-old beauty standards of a fictional society. Yes she was sculpted 1500+ years ago and at the time "devastatingly sexy" was big regal nose, no boobs and sturdy thighs. Yes I do have a dissertation on how the folks at the time dressed to achieve a fashionable silhouette and why it was desirable. Yes I did research how clothes were made from the dawn of time to 2021. Roll a haberdashery check.
1 hr 20 mins in and the #Kickstarter is already 10% funded!
Thank you so much to everyone backing it and sharing it around 💙
Fingers-crossed it is well on its way to funding and soon my cosy queer portal fantasy will be out in the world!
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/victoriacorva/non-player-character-a-cosy-queer-portal-fantasy-novel I enjoyed Corva’s first book, Books & Bone and here’s a kickstarter so that they can get their second published. Maybe you wanna help. A cozy, queer portal fantasy for adults.
If you are a web UI designer that codes and are available to do some freelance work, please ping me.
