"This is [insert game], except for the part that's actually good" no – if there is ANY part of the game you're prepared to defend on its own merits, it is not this game. If you have not in fact experienced a game answering to this description, expand your horizons. Embrace the suck.

fundamentally, i come from the assumption that any game can be played safely, that any kind of bleed can be managed at the right table, and that we shouldn't be making games for the least safe, least discursive tables.

Also, like, mechaploitation doesn't work through any lens other than antifascist? Like it wouldn't hurt so bad if the protagonists got captured by fuckin uhh queer freedom fighters?

NEW: When Propecy Fails is one of the most famous social psychology books of all time, a look at a small group of UFO believers when the “spacemen” failed to land. I wrote about a new study from an independent researcher who says the book is not what it seems. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
It’s one of the most influential social psychology studies ever. Was it all a lie?
A classic book on UFO believers and their "cognitive dissonance" after aliens failed to land is called into question.

So apparently gay rams are often killed because they don't tend to make more rams.

Would love recommendations for TTRPGs, modules, hacks etc. that explore femininity, misogyny, and gender roles through the lens of horror.
Think ‘Bluebeard’s Bride’ as a great example of the kind of thing I’m after.
Also open to recs from other media (books, films, etc.)
I’m researching 🤓
