Correction, this should read "monsterhearts"

...not monster heats.

Y'all, check out Monsterheats if you are interested in queer story-driven tabletop RPG about the messy emotional lives of teenage monsters.

The rulebook is evocatively written, and includes discussion of alienation, sexuality, emotionally safe play, and the phrase "big fucking claws".

I'm gonna drink a bunch of coffee then go kick the world's collective ass.

Wonderful thing of the day: durian instant latte mix.

Rain is louder when you turn the lights off. That's just a fact.

After a fair bit of discussing possibilities with @starryblush@witches.town , we have concluded that publishing order (3, 2, 5, 1, 4) is in fact the best way to read the Craft Sequence.

A summary of Craft Sequence novels (no spoilers):

3PD: Resurrect a God with one weird trick!

2SR: Is magical capitalism an acceptable alternative to ritual human sacrifice? The answer might surprise you!

FF5: Meet the upcoming gods you've probably never heard of!

LFS: You won't believe what happens after these city zoning meetings turn tense!

4RC: The upcoming theist credit crisis that threatens YOU!

Personal goal for existing on Mastodon: try not to do or engage with most of the things that make bird site awful in the ways that it is.

Surprisingly hard.

Underrated Mastodon feature: pop-up emoji keyboard.

A cool thing about being a fox is having extant cultural role models for everything from "bouncy carefree woodland creatures" to "enigmatic metaphysical beings".

People like to ask "what makes you think that x is conscious?"

My reply is: "what makes you think that *you* are?"

I wish there were separate pronouns for "us, including the listener" and "us, not including the listener".

Okay internet tell me it's a bad idea to stay up for the next four hoursd just because I can.

And really? If you, reading this, think you're 100% perfect at handling consent, that you're guaranteed never do something a partner is uncomfortable with, *you're probably wrong*. Thinking you can't fuck up is a dangerous complacency.

consent 

It's way too easy for a person to be able to say "I asked and they said yes, so there can't be a problem."

Or even "...and if they say there's a problem, they're lying."

consent 

Honestly starting to think that rigid emphasis on the letter of consent can be a way of /hiding/ nasty patterns, both on an individual and subcultural level.
