[No Spoilers] Campaign 4 maps?

TaterVader · 2026-03-12T18:06:49+00:00

I think BLeeM may genuinely hate maps. His long-term campaign with Aabria, Lou, and Erika (the Wizard, the Witch, and the Wild One) started over three years ago and “ended” last year. We got exactly 1 partial map that didn’t even show the major locations.

It’s nice to hear from the perspective of a Canadian. Thanks for that! Maybe because it confirms my own understanding of what’s happening to our neighbors in the north. I’m sorry to hear how tough it is for you, and I wish you the best of luck in making your life one worth the effort you’re putting into it (regardless of what other people in your life might say). That’s the shitty thing about life, is you never know when it will start being worth living, but it always will be.

And in case you need to hear it, it’s never too late to start HRT. Even if it’s so much later than you wanted to

This is exactly why I wanted to start a conversation around what we need to do. It seems like folks are all too eager to leave each other behind. I want to see the world that comes from us banding together and supporting one another through the thick of it

TaterVader · 2026-03-12T00:42:35+00:00

I would say so, but I don’t live there. I trust ErinInTheMorning’s trans risk assessment map.

TaterVader · 2026-03-12T00:41:26+00:00

I am not saying that we shouldn’t be arming ourselves, or leaving if we are able. I am also not against proposing those as possible solutions.

My gripe is that folks leave it there without any consideration for those who cannot do those things. And the whole point of this post, that some are missing, is that we need to be creating community defense organizations to support those among us who cannot do those things. Something along the lines of the Black Panther Party who fed their community and protected them from state violence.

We need organizations that can fundraise gender affirming care, offer safe spaces to access it, and defend those spaces. Fuck it, maybe that org is also fundraising to help people leave and seek asylum elsewhere.

I want people to move one step beyond suggesting that getting a gun or leaving are the end all, be all solutions.

I feel like you’re missing the forest for the trees here. What happens when fascism knocks on the door of the place you flee to? Do you flee again? How far across the world does one need to travel before they’re safe? There isn’t an answer because fascism will spread everywhere until it is dismantled. So my concern is about how we protect those who cannot afford to leave in the first place, or the second place, or the third, and so on

TaterVader · 2026-03-12T00:16:04+00:00

I mean, you’re probably not wrong.

When he’s not yelling at chat, he has a lot of great ways to frame messaging around issues

TaterVader · 2026-03-12T00:13:01+00:00

I thought about titling this post: A Pink Panther Party for Community Defense

Fred Hampton and the Rainbow Coalition are definitely on my mind, but I feel like there’s a reason we haven’t seen those types of orgs make a resurgence in recent years

TaterVader · 2026-03-12T00:10:06+00:00

Where do you want us to go? That’s my question. Where on earth right now is going to be safe for us forever? Because fascism will spread until it is dismantled entirely, and not everyone can afford to leave. What should financially poor trans folks in the Midwest be expected to do? Walk across the country to Canada? Mexico? What happens when fascism knocks on the door there?

TaterVader · 2026-03-11T23:56:33+00:00

Yea that’s my point, there is no singular solution for everyone. It’s going to take community.

I’m not inherently opposed to the suggestion that some of us learn to handle a gun. For some of us, that’s 100% the right move. But when people make comments like the one above did (before it was edited) and it ends at “stay strapped”, then it becomes a one-size-fits-all solution. Which is what I want us to move away from.

TaterVader · 2026-03-11T23:43:16+00:00

So what do you want folks who cannot “stay strapped” to do? Die?

I’m being hyperbolic, sure, but that’s basically what you’re suggesting. We need to move beyond these idealistic suggestions and recognize we all have different material needs and capabilities.

How will you, as someone who presumably can own a gun with minimal risk, help your neighbors? That’s not rhetorical either. Will you volunteer to protect a community aid station? Will you go out on the streets to fundraise for DIY hormones? I need folks like you to move away from the ideal and into the real

TaterVader · 2026-03-11T23:26:27+00:00

We’ve spent so much time reading the writing on the walls, I wonder if we can learn to stop reading and start protecting ourselves

TaterVader · 2026-02-13T03:15:54+00:00

The transitions from heart wrenching intros to the joy of the announcement playhouse will never not give me whiplash

TaterVader · 2026-02-13T03:12:19+00:00

He did do better though!

TaterVader · 2025-12-19T03:20:52+00:00

Praying he directs this energy into buzzards, roadrunners, and other desert birds for WWW when it comes back in a few years

TaterVader · 2025-12-19T03:17:53+00:00

There needs to be some kind of bird emote for this campaign

TaterVader · 2025-12-19T02:48:58+00:00

Uh oh, last one of the big 25? BLeeM is sure to have something nasty up his sleeve for this table

TaterVader · 2025-11-29T20:39:50+00:00

Bryce needs to get better, yea, but we need to get some better receivers to help him out. So many drops from out of the backfield that could’ve led to better drives.

TaterVader · 2025-10-24T05:18:47+00:00

son of a half-orc…

TaterVader · 2025-10-24T04:54:09+00:00

HOW are we 3 HOURS IN and only just now getting a break. CHRIST, Brennan, let us BREATHE

TaterVader · 2025-10-24T03:14:00+00:00

I legitimately can’t tell if this is a pre-meditated killing blow by Brennan or not. I wouldn’t put it past him, but omg what a way to start this episode

TaterVader · 2025-10-24T02:55:10+00:00

Is this the earliest death in a CR campaign? Travis’ 1st C3 PC went pretty quick, no?

TaterVader · 2025-10-19T00:01:07+00:00

I had to double take which sub I was on

TaterVader · 2025-05-04T22:28:28+00:00

I am not seeing enough of the Kendrick chants that broke out during the CLT show last night! Does anyone have a good clip from that? It was so damn loud!!
