Ok, noting the content warnings, I do think this #SethSkorkowsky video is worth a look re #TTRPG #MoralPanics https://youtube.com/watch?v=OpjV-melB-c&si=PLS8xDeGPveGqVSV

I am liking the term #MoralEntrepreneurs that #SethSkorkowsky is using and he just mentioned the #GURPSCyberpunk / #SecretService incident

“it’s also commendable how much he sucked”. #SethSkorkowsky having a lot of fun with the “RPG Villains” of the #TTRPG #MoralPanics

Although, I do believe that #SethSkorkowsky should have put content warnings on this one - the #TTRPG #MoralPanics WERE adjacent to a number of cases of self harm or worse. There was no actual connection but there were adjacent cases…

And he IS taking the time to define his terms. Which, considering that this is #SethSkorkowsky, isn’t all that surprising. #TTRPG

Huh. So #SethSkorkowsky has done a video on the RPG moral panic over the 70s to the early noughties. #TTRPG

So at this point, it is essentially open role play in the terms used by #SethSkorkowsky in the video above, even if some of the finer details are technically still “closed” because Umi either hasn’t thought about them or thought to bring them up in discussion. If/when those come up will be a surprise for most of us I think. ;) #GURPS #merfolk #ttrpg
