Tabletop Gaming has a White Male Terrorism Problem

I am a gamer. I followed the call of Cthulhu and ran in the shadows with hackers and shamans. I traversed the ancient lands of Greyhawk, Faerun, and Eberron with companions new and old. I swung from an airship and buckled swash over London for the Kerberos Club. I threw dice and flipped cards and ground men into dust playing table-top wargames.

I don’t do that anymore.

Since July of 2015 fans of the game Malifaux have been attempting to overwhelm me with death and rape threats for no other reason than I am a woman who has opinions on the game. Wyrd Miniatures is silent on this matter and hangs up whenever anyone attempts to discuss the harassment. Given that a large number of threats identify the senders by name as Wyrd staff members, I do not find this surprising.

But that’s not what this article is about.

We Need To Talk About Christian

So, a Norwegian author and librarian wrote an article in a paper today, about Fifty Shades of Grey, and I felt it was so incredibly important, that I decided to translate it to English, and post it here for you all to see and read. I take no credit for this piece of writing, all I did was translate it.

I once went to a concert with a friend (I don’t remember the band, she dragged me along) when I was 16. They were starting a wall of death and this guy who was flirting with me decides it would be funny to pull my top down, exposing my breasts, then throw me in the middle of this wall of death right as it’s about to meet. When I stumble in the middle and hit the wall someone screamed “STOP! EXPOSED GIRL!” and I thought they were all going to oggle at me. Instead, one guy quickly helped me cover up, three more helped me to my feet, and another asked who did that. When I pointed out the guy, two of them looked at him, me, each other, then nodded and punched the guy in the face before forcing him into the wall that was about to form again.

Metal men are gentlemenly as shit.

I’ve always loved this.

I went to my first concert a few months ago and there were these really tall men with black vest tops and tattoos and piercings surrounding us screaming loudly when the music started playing, but then we realised this kid in the crowd had lost his mum so they tried to comfort him and when he started crying they asked him his name and he shakily sobbed “Eliot” at which point they lifted him in the air onto the shoulder’s and shouted at the top of their lungs “ELIOT’S MUM, ELIOT IS LOOKING FOR YOU. EXCUSE ME HAS ANYONE SEEN ELIOT’S MUM!!!” at which point Eliot started giggling between sobs until he finally found his mum while in the air.

Seriously, I have felt safer in groups of death metal dudes than in the group of the preppiest preps that ever prepped.

[tevintersass-deactivated2015071]

Metal guys are one big family. Simple as that.

[spteatime]

I remember seeing this for the first time like a year ago and not once have I seen it and not reblogged it because this is just amazing.

[sapphicsugar]

My old coworker was one of those guys. Big, bearded, played in a hardcore metal band. One day another coworker’s laptop was stolen from the breakroom, so metal-head bought him a brand new one.

That guy was really a huge teddy bear.

[hailtothepanek]

My friend is tiny and she was at a concert when she was 15 or something and they were about to do a wall of death and she was right at the front. She started to realise this was not going to end well for her, but then this massive guy next to her picked her up and put her on his shoulders just as it began. After when she asked why, he said “if I didn’t pick you up you would have been crushed.” Metal men are nicer than most.

[piss-pirate]

I think the rules for metal dudes are universal. 1. Look out for smaller people that could be hurt and help them. 2. If someone falls, help them up. 3. If you see anyone being a dick fucking pulverise them

I. AM. SO ANGRY. RIGHT. NOW. AND SAD. AND DISGUSTED.  My country has been under attack. This moment we lived and are living is, sadly, historical. Our flags are at half mast, parisians (who normally don’t talk to each other in the streets ever) exchange a lot, we support each other, we’re sad together, we befriend strangers in our pain because we lost so much in these last 72 hours. Literally 90% of people who can go to Sunday’s march, WILL go. And if all 90% do not go it will be because of FEAR. And this, is alarming. BUT THEN THERE’S TUMBLR. You, who dare to talk about a journal you never heard of before. Calling it everything you think it is. Not understanding its covers (For instance, the black man getting assfucked that leads some bloggers to scream “IT’S RACIST!!1” is a goddamn antisemitic, racist fucker HIMSELF. Didn’t know? Then WHY THE FUCK did you even say that.), blaming victims of a horrible, barbaric attack.  You, who try to justify your disgusting speech with tumblr-based vocabulary, trying to appropriate something that is OURS, and ours only. You think it’s edgy to blame Charlie Hebdo? Please find something else to use as a new trend, you’re being disrespectful and ignorant.  You, who try to bring down the support movement with absolutely DUMB-AWARD WINNING comments such as “In [insert a region of the world] people are dying, this isn’t as important”. You fucking twat, you think PAIN AND HORROR ARE A COMPETITION? You don’t feel concerned? FINE. Then shut up, go be concerned about your “more important issues”. We care too, but right now we’re fucking mourning. Respect that.  Also, I bet some people will react like “Hey actually I’m from France and Charlie Hebdo is racist”. Of course that will happen, France isn’t immune to bigotry. Oh, and if you’re tempted to say “they deserved it”, our police has a website where I’ll report your ass right away. Charges can go up to a 7 years prison sentence, so think before posting your pro-terrorism bullcrap. Not much people know that about me, but I was considering the idea of becoming a press cartoonist. I loved these people so much. Because through their satires, they never prefered ANYONE. They had only one category of people they drew about: DUMB PEOPLE. That’s it. “Les Cons” as we say in France. As Charb said. Charb… Nice, I’m crying again. Anyway, now I’m sure. I’ll become a lot of things, including being a press cartoonist.  You guys don’t have as much insults as we do (or maybe it’s a cliché and I simply do not know them) so I had to invent some. Sorry, I’m not very creative tonight. And I do not apologize for the swearing. Je suis Charlie, and Charlie is by definition politically incorrect. Full of swearing. And really, really damn FUNNY. Which, again, I am not, because I am still mourning.

I know not all Tumblr reacted like this, and I apologize to “intelligent” bloggers who know how hard this is and how we do NOT need any more people who don’t know anything judging what we’re living. But right now… I just can’t.

3, 14, 15, 9 (I actually forgot which questions are which numbers, so skip any you don't like)

3: Did anyone close to you give birth?

I was in the same room as a woman who gave birth, if that counts? Other than that, no.

9: What was your biggest failure?

Maybe dropping my phone and destroying its surface and the charging thing by that. Can’t think of anything else right now. Since I didn’t take any exams for more than a year now I neither failed nor succeeded in any ^^ 

 14: Where did most of your money go?

I definitely spent the most money on traveling in 2014. I’ve been to Japan and New York and that ate a lot of my money. But since I won’t have many opportunities to travel in 2015 because of the big exam and stuff, I can save some again ^^

 15: What did you get really, really, really excited about?

Traveling to Japan! :D The most exciting thing that year!

[necral]

Since I just asked Anja the same thing: What's the story with your username?

There's not much of a story ^^ I was searching for a character name for our P&P group back before I even started using the internet. As always I consulted my MtG cards for inspiration and stumbled across one that was called 'Necra Disciple'. I added an l to that, liked the sound of it and decided to use it. I grew very fond of that character and so, when I started writing in the first forum I went to I used that name as a nickname and have so ever since ;)

I will be back in albuquerque tomorrow night so I will be back to normal tumblin. But until then I will be enjoying some more time with my friends. So please enjoy this snapshot trainsinanime took of necral, myself, and kyuunonana on New Years Eve close to Times Square while we were waiting. They are flying back to Europe in the morning and I’m headed back to the southwest in the late evening. It was fun. See you later this summer :)
