Hey there Bluesky!

Nice to meet you, I'm Kali! I'm a full time D&D DM, running 6 games a week.

I'm a trans woman in her 30's, and I write for Cloaks and Capes creating supplementary tabletop content.

I need TTRPG friends, so algorithm, do your thing. This is what I want.

I did indeed do that.

It's not the kind of move you can pull randomly for laughs. That one definitely requires some good will built up with the players

Not me up at 1:30 in the morning preparing patch notes for a D&D class.... seriously, the excitement I've been getting for the Engineer is infectious! Thank you to everyone who has checked it out!

My heart hurts for the lives this will ruin. It aches knowing that this is just the next step, and that we know where the road ends.

Donald Trump has just released a national under 18 trans care ban executive order. I am working through specifically how it tries to do this, and will live tweet here section by section as I read through it.

It is not yet on the website, but has been released via press release.

Every last one of our 17k+ trans service members have more valor, honor, integrity, and courage in their discarded nail clippings than that draft-dodging, lying sack of shit has in his entire body.

Have your escape plans brothers and sisters, stay strong.

This saturday, I'm doing a fundraiser stream to raise money for a member of my community who got hit with unexpected medical bills.

We're playing Fallout: New Vegas from noon to midnight est at twitch.tv/eskalia

And since we already raised 25% of our goal, I'm gonna cosplay Vi! Dye is in!

When is it time to go? If we're out here looking for our sign on when it's time to get out of the country, what does it look like?

It feels like we're close.

I actually play this as an NPC in one of my games. Though the problem is they're the champion of the Machine Prince (god of machines), and their god wont let them die. They've tried a few times, but they always get rebuilt, less and less human each time.

So if federal funds can't be used in programs that acknowledge people who identify as transgender, this also means that trans people don't have to pay taxes? Right?

Only seems fair to me.

ABC White House correspondent just released ANOTHER anti-trans EO expected that we did not cover in our piece this morning:

A federal ban on funding to programs that acknowledge and affirm transgender people.

I have an ancient curse placed upon my family line, and it has manifested for me in my dice rolls.

I have a dice in prison because it Nat 1'd and killed my character... twice.

Kalicore is a meme in my community to mean rolling poorly.

Hey fellow DMs, a quick word.

Your players need to feel like they can make a difference, especially now. Stories of people standing up for what's right matter more now than ever.

Celebrate heroism. Rejoice in love. Stand against evil. Combat tyranny.

It's not just escapism. It's hope.

#TTRPG

Having one of those nights where I'm so excited for my D&D session today that I can't stay asleep.

I've sent my party into a faerie dungeon, where the laws of time and space only somewhat apply.

We left off with them showing up in a pit fight in Zaun. I wonder who they'll meet...
