So the fact that RPG Twitter is doing a discussion about safety tools right now, and that& #39;s great.
But.
-My feed is filled with & #39;just don& #39;t put that in your games& #39; && #39;I don& #39;t understand why you& #39;d play that& #39; & & #39;it& #39;s never ok to put that in your games& #39; & & #39;it weirds me out that people would want to play that& #39; & & #39;the only people who& #39;d play that are creeps who don& #39;t understand the issue& #39;
And, I dunno how to say this. But it& #39;s getting to me. Like it& #39;s *really* getting to me. Nobody& #39;s saying anything directly TO me, of course, but the background chatter is that the stuff I love isn& #39;t OK, and I& #39;m likewise not OK for enjoying it.
It& #39;s getting under my skin.
And consent-and-safety in gaming is important and I love that we& #39;re having this conversation, but it feels like I& #39;m swimming against the tide here. Like a lot of people think in an ideal world, the games I& #39;m into just wouldn& #39;t exist.
Anyway, yeah. It& #39;s depressing, and I& #39;m not sure how to address it without just shrieking & #39;centre this conversation on MEEEE& #39; so, ehh.
I guess I& #39;ll vent and then try to get over myself.
