On this #TransgenderDayOfRemembrance, we pause to celebrate the lives and mourn the deaths of transgender people killed by acts of hateful violence in 2025. If you can safely do so, find a vigil in our area (many can be attended digitally) and take some time to acknowledge these victims.

The next 3 stops on our @OfficialPAX.bsky.social Unplugged Gaymer Quest scavenger hunt feature the LGBTQIA-owned @PossumCreekGames.com, LGBTQIA-owned @SnowbrightStudio.bsky.social, and the LGBTQIA+ designers at The @StorySquadCast.bsky.social
Possum Creek is a queer-owned company that publishes games that have an inherent queerness to them, from themes and characters to the game designers themselves. We create for people who have never played games before, for people who have always found games inaccessible or impenetrable, and for people who have always wanted something different than what games traditionally provide. Snowbright Studio is proudly queer-owned and operated, led by designer Grace Collins (they/them), creator of the Teatime Adventures series and an advocate for inclusive, heart-centered storytelling in tabletop games. Snowbright’s team of LGBTQIA+ designers, writers, and artists craft cozy, story-driven experiences that celebrate kindness, creativity, and connection. Snowbright champions representation and joy at every gaming table, from the warmth of Teatime Adventures to their newest expansion, Teatime Adventures: Campfire Tales. The Storyteller Squad is a deeply heartfelt actual play series that presents high fantasy adventures, against the backdrop of a modern setting infused with cozy lofi vibes. Our unique blend of dramatic action and wholesome slice of life storytelling is apt to make you smile, gasp, reel in wonder, and cry tears of every kind. Join our ensemble cast as we weave themes of queer relationships and community into our story about the joys and perils of magic, friendly and flirty cryptids, and rising above challenges with the support of found family.
