      She did write some Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy comics for DC, so if I had to guess, this guy is just one of those weirdos who can’t stand that Harley Quinn is bi now lmao.

    So I'm looking to see if this will be fun and easy enough to learn quickly, and I plan on watching more, but the doom room scene was cringe, only in the form that the players literally had no interaction with it besides rolling that noise makers. I'm no veteran, but I do wanna point it out for anyone thinking about doing something similar, don't give the players a empty room, add pillars, add random walls, spheres anything that can add to the narrative and give players the ability to interact, also give them a chance to describe how their characters respond to things so they can be part of the game too and not just listening to a story. I do plan on continuing to watch but that was really rough and felt I should point it out

He calls it California politics, but you can find social justice work in every state in the Union, and around the world. He probably thinks Martin Luther King and the 1960s were the last word on civil rights, and it belongs in history books, rather than popping up in games.
