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 .
Especially given that this character’s concept originally started as “my terrible overblown impersonation of Keanu Reeves, but not at all smart and also a martial artist”.
My current roleplaying character is shaping up to be among the most messed up and also fun characters to play at the table in… 12 years or so of regular play. I think he might be on a villain arc where he crosses lines he can’t un-cross in the name of “good”. But his friends may also find a way to pull him back and there might be a redemption arc. I’m so excited to find out!
"Can't get mind-read if your mind is empty. " (The speaking character is a pretty low int). #Roleplaying without context
"It's a Bag of Holding, but it only holds screams." #Roleplaying without holding
"It's a single human, Michael. How old could it possibly be? 15???" #Roleplaying without context
"Why can't I hold all these poisonous frogs???" #Roleplaying without context
"The poisonous frogs will continue until morale improves." #Roleplaying without context
When the druid asks some assholes, "So, uh… snakes or spiders?" 🤣 #Roleplaying without context
#MastoDev I want to be prompted to send someone a "why" when I click "follow" and their account isn't just open. Sometimes I don't notice that it changed to "rescind request" or whatever the words are and so don't think to message them to say Hi or whatever. Just they said something cool to a friend of mine in a thread or something, IDK. Then I notice weeks later and their avatar looks familiar, but that's it.
