Here is the schedule until October 19 - aka the STAFF charity fundraising for GATE💖💫

5 straight nights of streaming- 5 opportunities to not only support a good cause fighting for human rights, but ALSO to raise $260 to force me to play a horror game that WILL scare me, for 10 hours...

A promo for the Stand Tall Against Fear & Fascism charity event, showing the 5+ day schedule.

5 days, 5 hour streams running 3pm to 8pm CDT time.
Friday October 10- Minecraft Exploration with a speech recognition mod.
Saturday October 11- Dicey Dungeons, fighting back against the rigged gameshow's Host.
Sunday October 11- a double feature stream of 'That's not my Neighbor' and 'Munchkin Digital'
Monday October 13- Slay the Princess: The Pristine Cut
Tuesday October 14- Shadows Over Cyberspace, a pre-y2k lovecraft-inspired visual novel

AND if the original goal of $260 is met, there will be two additional days added to the event! October 15th and 16th, the Wednesday and Thursday following the original 5 days, will be the eldritch & body-horror filled 'Look Outside'.

Luci Ferrous's png is in the lower left corner, a monk is blue robes with a broken halo, and the background is a purple night sky with twinkling stars.

If nothing else, their community is so big you can catch the highlights at least. Should be easier to follow like that, compared to the previous campaigns.

As I understand this campaign will have more focus on shorter arcs, so players can drop in/out for other events w/out affecting the story!

It cannot be made clearer.

If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

How do I explain to offline people that my favorite Japanese mascot said "we can only be liberated from queer oppression if we are truly seen as human" and then started wielding fireworks like a rocket launcher on the side of a mountain without sounding like I've totally lost it?

I hope that one day the term LGBT will become a thing of the past.
I will continue to spread my message until we live in a world where everyone can love freely and is free from persecution and discrimination.
Until then, let's all support each other🤍

there's an episode of The Simpsons where Marge tries to get a violent cartoon pulled from the airwaves, only to discover that the people backing her aren't going to stop at just the art that *she* doesn't like, and that supporting artistic freedom means accepting discomfort.

It aired in 1990.

The Church had a better PR team, and having a villain who 'wins' by tempting people away from God's Grace turned religion from 'be good people' into 'us VS them'. The lie got roots down before Luci's fall even brought them to Earth.

In truth, Luci was a union rep, but that lore is for another day~

Head Librarian Luci @librarianluci.bsky.social · 2d

2) Cuz that mantis lie has to do with partners hurting each other.

In my campaign, angels before the fall had 2 souls working in tandem- & after the fall, these soulmates were split to opposite sides of the Angel/Demon war.
Luci tho? Cursed with immortality, while his partner reincarnates & forgets

Head Librarian Luci @librarianluci.bsky.social · 2d

It's actually for two lore reasons, both from the same false "fact" many tout about the mantis... that females bite off the males' head as part of procreating.

1) NPC Luci was based on the idea that Lucifer's evil was just a lie of the Church. Luci fell first; ideal for a villainous origin by them.

Head Librarian Luci @librarianluci.bsky.social · 2d

Actually, I want to explain one of these- the Orchid Mantis, which some might misunderstand. Aconite aka the Monkshood flower, fits from color & name! But I didn't choose a colorful mantis because "a PRAYING mantis, cuz monk haha'".

Luci prays to no one, so a clearly non-praying mantis was chosen~

This looked fun, so I did a moodboard for my 'sona Luci💖💫

Of these refs the only ones I didn't already have was the mantis & quote (cuz the OG quote is a weird lore thing & I never needed an animal while working on my design😉)

For those curious, Salvation Army has recently been trying to sanitize its rep after multiple accounts of housing & aid discrimination against the #LGBTQIA2 community, instances of SA in their facilities, & homeless folks placed in forced labor programs.

Tl;dr, ignore the bell ringers this year 🔕

Brakka Quilltusk @brakkaquilltusk.bsky.social · 5d

Please tell me they got an earful about how shitty Salvation Army is & how they abuse homeless people in their shelters - especially if that person is from the LGBTQIA2 community.
