I've no doubt there are a lot of great pay to play campaigns out there. It may be I'm in a privileged enough spot to find free games both online and IRL, and that's why it doesn't hit with me.
I'm def familiar with Ginny Di's stuff, haven't seen her vid on this topic though. Will check that out.

The whole concept of paying to play in a TTRPG has just never sat right with me. I don't hate on anyone who's out there making it work for them, it's just not for me.

nervous about calls? let me assure you how easy it is 💘💪😤

1. you will most likely go to voicemail. leave your name, city/zip
2. if a clerk picks up, they are always friendly
3. say "i am against cutting federal funding for gender affirming care". you do not need to justify it
4. done! 💘
