Stop calling my ancestors "slaves!"
They were enslaved. They themselves were not slaves. Degenerate (dare I say morally corrupt and perhaps evil) members of their own species brutally robbed them of their basic freedoms generation after generation in the most heinous.. see I start losing it...just stop! Stop this rhetorical Three-Card-Monte called "Hide The Perpetrator!" And while you're at it, turn the gaslight off too. I can see just fine without it.
The slavers who inflicted this nearly incomprehensible crime upon my ancestors generation after generation must no longer be allowed to hide behind this linguistic sleight of hand.
Look. I don't even know what I would like to really hear coming out of y'all mouth when you dare even speak about my Ancestors (Blessed Be They) and their passage through The Long Dark Night of American Enslavement. But sho as hell y'all need to stop calling them "slaves." Better yet why don't you just keep them out your mouth altogether.

Jessa/Wessa ship wars
teenagefunbouquet said:Isn't it enough Tessa&Jem got a wedding comic, two kids (and you say more), a lifetime as the only mates for each other and your most explicitly written sex scene After the Bridge? Wessa are the most popular and we get nothing, every wessa moment is shared with Jem while Jessa get to be alone, Wessa fans got no "anticipation" like jessa fans are getting now everyday you give them a book in jem's pov or a short story or a new kid. it feels like wessa is dead.
I’ll be interested in people’s thoughts on this. (I left the username as is since it’s a blank account, probably created to ask this question, so no one’s really getting hurt in this minor drama.) Most of my long and somewhat crabbish post is under the read more.
First, let me reply with the obvious, which is the Jessa rebuttal: “Isn’t it enough that Will gets to be Tessa’s first love and Jem only gets to be her second? Isn’t it enough that Will and Tessa had sex when they thought Jem was dead? Isn’t it enough that there’s a whole series about Will and Tessa’s kids but we only find out that Jem and Tessa had a kid in a short story? Isn’t enough that Jem and Tessa have spent half their relationship looking for a kid who’s related to Will, not either of them? Isn’t it enough that Will and Tessa got two biological kids they got to spend eighteen years raising and Jem and Tessa only get like two years with Kit? Jessa are the most popular, but half the stories in Ghosts of the Shadow Market happened while Will was still alive! And now Wessa fans are getting content every day and have two more books of Wessa being married and doing cute stuff to look forward to. Every day they’re getting a special edition of a book with a whole short story about their wedding. It feels like Jessa is dead.”
Not that I believe any of that either: I think both complaints are equally silly and selfish. But they are complaints rooted in the same logic, which is “My ship is the best and most popular, and every time I see something that in my mind supports the ship I hate I feel angry and diminished, and rather than perhaps examining those feelings I’d like to vent them on other fans and the creator.”
So. My feeling about this is: I am sad to see there is still some kind of a ship war here. As far as I am concerned...

Naming Conventions
For certain fantasy creatures, I’ve found it helpful to establish patterns in the things I call them. Using a random name generator is fun, but it’s also nice to give clues or enrich the game setting sometimes. One example is that for goblins, I always give them a one syllable name unless they’re a respected individual, in which case they get two. Also, goblin men have names that end with a hard consonant (Screed is my fave paladin), women’s names end with an S or Z sound (Rix and Wobs, sisters and NPCs who are up to something) and names for non-binary or other goblins end with a vowel. Maybe the goblin language doesn’t have pronouns, just conjugations for all their words like that? I’m not sure but it’s interesting to consider.
Another example is my process for getting dragon names. I like to think about the role of the dragon in the world, or their history and goals, and use the Draconic Word Roots chart in the book Draconomicon to put together something that fits. This is useful because every dragon in my game has a title that gets more impressive with their accomplishments: Achuakurik, the Emerald Slaughter Thadarshvir, the Greed Below Iricosalur, the Eternal Voyager
