In this time of incredible division, it's important we in the Jewish community remember that Islamophobia and anti-arab sentiment are not and will never be appropriate responses to antisemitism.

As Martin Luther King Jr, a vocal ally to the Jewish community, said, Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.

Those who protest against Israel's genocide are punished for antisemitism.

But for some strange reason, authorities have never cracked down on antisemitism any other time. Any other time, antisemitism is considered free speech.

It's almost as if they know damn well that protesting against Israel is not antisemitism.

I want to listen to some podcasts of indie TTRPG systems. I've only listened to The Adventure Zone, so hopefully something with shorter story arcs. Can you recommend or petition the hive mind?

I'm currently into Three of Hearts (@threeheartscast), an all-queer actual play using Spaces Kings; however it doesn't quite satisfy the shorter story arcs requirement, as it is very much one ongoing narrative.

But as far as showcasing indie RPGs goes I think there's nothing better than Jeff Stormer's Party of One (@partyofonepod) where each episode Jeff plays a single session of a new indie RPG with a guest. It's a lot of fun and I think Jeff is doing fantastic work to spread awareness of indie RPGs.

There's also One Shot by James D'Amato, which as befits its name is all about doing one shots of indie and lesser known TTRPGs. The difference being that there's a party of players.

Riley Hopkins (@revryebread), the creator of Interstitial, a heavily Kingdom Hearts-inspired PbtA game, also hosts an Interstitial podcast! I am not up to date on the podcast, but they recently started a new season, Infinity, which is hosted on the Riley Hopkins & Their Amazing Friends podcast on @moonshotpods. Riley has also been a guest on the aforementioned Party of One and their episodes are a delight to listen to, Riley and Jeff have a really infectious energy. :)

Finally the boys of online, the Anime Sickos (@animesickos) have done an actual play called Shuffle Quest where there was an ongoing story but each six-episode arc of that story would have a change of setting and rules system! It's also finished, so you know you can listen to it from start to finish with no loose ends.

And I mean now that I did mention the sickos, they have had a few guest episodes where their guest ran an RPG for them: Quinn Wilson ran the boys a session of Hard Wired Island in Shin Sicko City, the aforementioned Jeff Stormer ran them a one-shot where they had to steal the Chrono Trigger (the McGuffin from the game of the same name), and recently Grant Howitt of Spire, Heart, and Goblin Punks fame ran them a session of Goblin Punks.

But yes, I also beseech the hivemind for recommendations :)

My favourite Da Vinky twins trans ally moments:

When they said their pronouns are they/them because there’s 2 of them

“It doesn’t matter what your pronouns are, because at the end of the day, it’s night”

I keep seeing people making fun of using growled, hissed, roared, snarled etc in writing and it’s like.

have you never heard someone speak with the gravel in their voice when they get angry? Because that’s what a growl is.

Have you never heard someone sharply whisper something through the thin space of their teeth? Or when your mother sharply told you to stop it in public as a kid when you were acting up/being too loud? Because that’s what a hiss is.

Have you never heard a man get so blackout angry that their voice BOOMS through the house? Because that’s what a roar is.

Have you never seen someone bare their teeth while talking to accentuate their frustration or anger while speaking with a vicious tone? Because that’s what snarling is.

It’s not meant to be a literal animal noise. For the love of god, not every description is literal. I get some people are genuinely confused, but also some of these people are genuinely unimaginative as fuck.
