RPGs, Videogames, board games, card games, what have you.
Ok, so this one is real broad. But it’s a thing that gets bandied about a lot. You have places like the AFK tavern, who have very cute, themed names. Or Cafe Mox, where they have an attached game store, and you can pick up the games they let you borrow, or buy dice if… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #607 – Nerd Cuisine
OMG! YOU GUYS!!!!!! IT’S OUT!!!!!!! THIS IS NOT A DRILL, THE UNTITLED GOOSE GAME IS OUT!!!!!!!!!! I just lost more than an hour on it. The Martian got it for the Switch, and played for several hours while cackling. Today he made me a profile in the game. Oh my gods, it is so addicting… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #599 – UNTITLED GOOSE GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!
Guys, there is a lot going on. First, I’ll try to quit gushing about the lack of migraines. But it feels like a miracle right now. So it’s going to slip in. Also, given my last post, let me reassure you that you guys are my only sponsors. I’m just really happy to see a… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #593 – So Many…
Ok, so I did not get near as much work on anything done this weekend as I’d been hoping. Saturday was Rolls and Roles, a small, private game day that the AmberconNW folks put on every June. It’s usually 4 or 5 games per two slots and runs from roughly noon to midnight at someone’s… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #576 – State of the Geek/Magic German Tights
Yeah, I got sucked back into it. It seems like every time I turned around that people were on about it. Someone pointed out that the Detective Pikachu movie might have had something to do with it. I do still want to see the, actually. See, I was grounded from Pokemon Go, after the Squirtle… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #565 – Pokemon Go!
Hi! So, this is a day late because Tuesday night I ran a demo of Guns & Glamour, the PBTA hack I’ve been working on forever, for @ActualPlay on their twitch stream. I had never done that before. I mean, I’ve run and played games online before, over Skype or Google Hangouts. But doing it… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #548 – Guns & Glamour
Or conversely, everyone has to do some gatekeeping, but when it’s because someone has demonstrated through their actions that they are a douchebag, it’s no longer gatekeeping. Instead it’s boundaries. Yeah, I’ve seen these jackasses with their “I took a philosophy course my freshman year of college,” arguments, and it’s bullshit. Look, wanting to deny… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #542 – What Gatekeeping Is and Isn’t?
Ok, so I’ve spent the last 24 hours in migraine land, and hopefully this doesn’t tip me back in, but here goes. We have reached the stage of gaming’s #MeToo where people have started to realize that they, or people they know have pretty much all given cover to some pretty shady assholes in the… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #540 – Well, this is a Clusterfuck
Ok, so for those of you who might fetishize my typos, you can visit the original twitter thread here. For those of you who would like to see me be slightly more coherent than that, I want to talk about the consequences of assholes like Zak S. on the games industry and community re: marginalized… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #538 – The Result of all the Misogyny
This one’s going public today, because this is important. I’ll make it up to my Patrons in a bit. Promise. Right, I know you all have seen me talk, rant about and refer to bullshit surrounding Zak S, Zak Sabbath, Zak Smith, whatever the fuck he calls himself, before. And you know how I always… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #537 – Gaming’s Latest #MeToo Moment
