It would be great if folks could actually look at why Gov. Schwarzenegger quoted me on Saturday instead of using it as a vehicle for once again being salty about D&D.

It was from a panel on Race & Nerd Culture I did Saturday during the Unfinished Business summit.
Here& #39;s a link to the panel, which a lot of y& #39;all need to be honest Learn something, get some context and then go about your day. https://twitter.com/MotherlandsRPG/status/1317576588288995335?s=20">https://twitter.com/Motherlan...
But here we are, once again folks using something to grind their axe against D&D. Yeah, it was a fucked up comparison and moment to get Arnold& #39;s attention. It& #39;s irritating to see folks call Mother Lands "black D&D" while we& #39;re here.
It& #39;s very much not D&D, or even a D20 system. It& #39;s a new story, new system and of note; a fucking amazing crew of Black & POC RPG creatives that I& #39;m honored to work with. We& #39;re building something pretty cool, but once again folks just go RPG? Must be D&D?!
I& #39;m not even ragging on D&D. I am under contract to WotC. Rivals is a partnered show to them. I& #39;m a semi-pro DM & Player. A good chunk of my income now comes from RPG content, writing & creation. But it& #39;s frustrating to see folks reduce the work to D&D but Black.
While we& #39;re here, the same folks who will holler loud and long about supporting POC work, but have a whole personality & brand built on hating the big dog in the game? Where y& #39;all at in chat, retweeting, sharing and supporting the POC you claim to uplift?
Lemme be blunt, if you ain& #39;t supporting Black & POC creators? Take that BLM out ya profile name. Stop hopping in threads to loudly yell about how we should support but when it& #39;s showtime? Y& #39;all silent and not in chat, not a RT of a show going live or congrats are to be seen.
This goes for everybody, cause some skinfolk ain& #39;t shit either. Y& #39;all prove daily the old saying about skinfolk ain& #39;t kinfolk. But it goes especially for the self named allies that wanna stay in the threads, and call outs but can& #39;t do the actual uplifting.
Oh and if you get in your feelings from this thread? Maybe look up the phrase hit dogs holler. Cause if I ain& #39;t call your name specifically? I ain& #39;t talking about you; but those of you who know this thread applies? That& #39;s a you problem. Walk that walk, not just talk.
