Okay but what annoys me the most about adventure books/movies is how there’s always the friend who is conveniently taking latin and can translate the mysterious passage and provide the next clue. I have been conveniently taking latin for 6 years. why are none of my friends bringing me ancient tablets to translate to find ancient treasure. time to step it up guys carpe diem veni vidi vici
I just need everyone to know how much I really, really, REALLY hate Aristotle.
And there are three kinds of hatred for Aristotle, the first being visceral, so called because it rises from the intestines and through the middle of a person, yet never wanes nor increases but remains constant; and the second is called passive, and this occurs when a scholar or reader comes upon the works of Aristotle by chance, without seeking them out of their own volition, but rather confronted with them unexpectedly as a man set upon by bandits along a lonely road, but this sort of anger passes quickly; but indeed the third is active, and this occurs when a person seeks out Aristotle with the particular intention of becoming choleric; this sort of person seeks out the works of Aristotle wherever they may be found so that they might read them and thereby conjure up some bilious reason to cast invective and rebuke upon his theories and observations, and this anger is kept by its possessor at a boil.
Check out A Place at the Tabletop by @BritSaysStuff looking at issues of diversity and inclusion in tabletop gaming.
About Us
We believe there is a place at the tabletop for all people–this
includes people of all genders, all sexual orientations, all
races/nationalities, and all ability levels. We know tabletop gamers are
a broad and diverse bunch, and we think our games and game art should
reflect the full spectrum of human diversity.
A Place at the Tabletop will focus on evaluating the level of diverse
representation in a variety of tabletop games, in hopes of sparking a
broader conversation within the tabletop community.
We are deeply, profoundly uninterested in debating whether or not
representation matters or whether games should even bother to make space
for a variety of people. It does, we should.
This question bores us. It insults us. We’re over it. If you don’t
agree with this basic premise, this is unapologetically not the blog for
you. There are plenty of places on the internet you can go to debate
that. This is not one of them.
But if you want to look more closely at issues of diversity and representation within games, we hope you stick around!
