Living vicariously through the love of others.

all grown up </3

Your own fears and insecurities about yourself somehow become a reflection of my humanity, when it had nothing to do with anything. And somehow enough people think that and now it's systemic instead of the made up nonsense it always was. Ijeoma Oluo called it mediocrity, James Baldwin called racism the white man's problem, and they remain correct.

“I’m just doing what I’m told. If I am ordered to remove gold fillings from refugees theeth then that’s what I’ll do”, says police officer Michael Hansen. Just thought I’d add this since not a lot of people outside of the nordic countries seem to have seen it. This is a danish police officer discussing a new danish law that says the police should seize the possesions and money of refugees to finance the integration.

It’s real.

They also stole the gold from people’s teeth.

Heads up! We’re 34 minutes shy of a six hour episode.

I'm also considering the possibility of writing it more as a story within a story. Technically the story would be about normal humans in the real world coming together to play DND and their DND campaign would be the main focus of the story and what would be set in Exandria and feature the above characters all of whom I've tweaked and rolled up to level 3 with backstories for a campaign that starts in Rexxentrum.

The separation into three small groups is the preformed friendships they come in with (like Nott & Caleb or Molly & Yasha). The first group (of 3) are coming down from Uthodurn. The middle two from Icehaven. And the bottom two from the Feywild. Converging on Rexxentrum with various goals, but soon to meet each other (probably at a tavern because it's DND, but I haven't gotten that far yet).

The CR cast having a two hour meeting with white boards and grub galore to discuss lore and strategies for a make-believe storytelling game is sending me. I wish I could be a fly on the wall just to witness the whole session.
