honestly the best thing i’ve done in the past year was replacing “i wanna die” with “i wanna commit a crime.” same humor and sentiment without the suicidal ideation

Heck with it – I know I said this wouldn’t be up until the weekend, but I’ve reached a point where if I keep tinkering with the layout I’m probably just going to ruin it, so here: have Radical Catgirl Anarchy Version 1.0.

For those just joining us, Radical Catgirl Anarchy is a rules-light tabletop RPG for three or more players (no GM required!) where you play as a bunch of scrappy catgirls out to build sustainable communities and bring down the Man, not necessarily in that order. It’s exactly as serious as you want it to be. The image above is actually the game in its entirety, but if you want it in HTML or PDF format, you can get it from the Penguin King Games itch.io page, here:

https://penguinking.itch.io/radical-catgirl-anarchy

(I know some folks have put together fanart or actual plays based on the playtest drafts, so if you want them linked from the project page, just tag me via chat.)

More inadvisable NPCs for your Dungeons & Dragons game, royal court edition:

A sinister advisor who constantly schemes against, well, basically everybody. It quickly becomes apparent that everyone at court knows the advisor is betraying them, and they often compare notes when the advisor isn’t around to hear. The advisor, however, has no idea, and honestly believes they’ve got everyone fooled.  

An honoured guest of the court and celebrated dragon-slaying knight who is, to all appearances, roughly nine years old. Their heroic credentials are thoroughly corroborated, and no amount of inquiry by the player characters can establish whether this is some elaborate pageantry, or whether the kid actually killed a dragon.  

A long-suffering servant who seems to be responsible for literally everything. Given the volume of work they perform and the impossible speed with which they get from place to place, the player characters may guess they’re dealing with multiple identical servants, but can never provably catch them in two places at once.  

A robed human wearing an elaborate, heavily reinforced hat which serves as a perch for a rather grumpy-looking owl. The owl is the court wizard, and the human is their personal assistant; the other members of the court regard this as perfectly obvious, and will affect shocked dismay if the player characters assume differently.  

A hulking ogre, nearly ten feet in height, garbed in a jingling fool’s cap and disconcertingly tight particoloured motley. Though their jests are often remarkably clever, they’re delivered in a humourless monotone and radiate a sense of palpable menace; however, the King inexplicably finds them hilarious, so nobody can say anything.

How to go from worldbuilding to an actual plot:

1. Pick a time in place in your fictional world

2. Imagine how current events in that time and place would play out if no outside forces intervene

3. Imagine the sort of person who would most drastically fuck everything up for everyone concerned just by showing up

4. Introduce that person to that time and place and tell the story of he resulting catastrophe

The notion that a “witch” is simply a gendered term for a wizard stems in part from a popular misunderstanding of the relationship between magic and gender. While many forms of magic are, in fact, gender specific, most wizards would find the conclusion that this means there are exactly two kinds of wizard laughably quaint. For a wizard, gender is less a facet of identity and more an engineering problem, and the discovery or creation* of new genders to meet particular thaumaturgic needs remains a major focus of wizarding research.

* Though this may seem a subtle distinction to the unintiated, the question of whether genders are created or merely discovered forms the core of one of wizarding culture’s most contentious philosophical debates; outsiders are well advised to avoid the topic entirely!

yesterday for April Fool’s my workplace had a short training article on recognizing computer-generated faces from real ones and one of the tricks mentioned was “count the teeth” and I just wanted to say that it’s both ironic and kind of horrifying how society has unwittingly cycled right back to IF YE MEET A MAN ON THE ROAD, COUNT HIS FINGERS LEST YE DEAL UNKNOWING WITH A FAE

what some people think “you don’t need dysphoria to be trans” means: anyone can choose to be trans and trans people can just choose to be cis.

what “you don’t need dysphoria to be trans” actually means: trans experiences are extremely varied and trans people define dysphoria in multiple valid ways. there are multiple valid ways to be trans other than the “true transsexual” narrative popularized by cis people. distress about your birth assigned gender or sex characteristics is one way to be trans. discovering that you suddenly feel more authentic when living as a new gender, after no discernable distress that you’d call dysphoria, is another. if your gender is different from the one you were assigned at birth, you can call yourself trans.

These are the solutions we need to policing right now. Remember: the problem cannot be solved by technocratic solutions (i.e. body cams, further trainings, etc.) The problem is policing itself.
