(RPGs; CW sexual assault)

Genuinely shocked that a major, well-known figure in indy RPGs (@/skinnyghost) streamed a scene where he ran a sexual assault on a player's PC, and played it off as a joke. (1/n)

This was an interaction so gross the players quit the campaign; it's been cancelled. This happened a week ago; the show was cancelled 2 days ago...and hardly anyone is discussing this. Holy crap, y'all.

H/T to EA for posting about this. (2/2)

In the video discussing the cancellation, @/skinnyghost apologizes for not having safety tools in place. Fine. But no apology to cast or viewers for running a sexual assault scene as a joke, no acknowledgement that anything was wrong beyond the cast being "uncomfortable" (3/2)

Now maybe those apologies to cast were made at the time, maybe that was a private thing not shared with the public. I'm not privy to that.

But it sure as hell merits a public statement and acknowledgement. (4/4)
