After the disappearance of their family, Caine Reyes is left to pay off a massive debt with the help of their bot, Jet. But after Jet gets broken, Caine runs into the rebel group Zero Zero and gets caught up in the rising revolution.

Why should you listen?

Under the Electric Stars is queer and Asian-focused cyberpunk show, from a queer Filipino who believes in the power of revolution, community, and anti-capitalism. And it features an amazing cast of people who truly make the show what it is.

How can I support the show?

*tries to enforce rulebook*

*gets thoroughly ignored*

*everyone is still having fun with their bullshit while the guy with the rulebook is sitting alone in the corner*

Yeah turns out people don’t like to be told how to play to the point that they will literally develop hacking skills to be able to do whatever random crap they find funny. Which isn’t always the wisest choice, but it’s the one they found fun. Maybe TTRPGs would be more popular if the modding community was more welcome, which, wait, that’s what lead to the 2010s boom of D&D until Wizards decided to start messing with the rules and suddenly everyone stopped caring again. It’s almost like rule lawyering is what puts people off games, huh. D&D didn’t get it’s rebirth as a game, but as a game engine, during the era when Minecraft and Roblox were succeeding by doing the same thing.

Are we all but players in this game of chance?
