Does anyone know of good Video Games, Movies & TV (Physical Media) & Board Game stores in Portland?
I’ve been going to TOTL Games for a while.
But I’m looking for more variety.

“Our country is really headed in a direction away from caring about individuals, and it’s still so shocking.”
New today at Austin Free Press: I spoke with the ACLU of #Texas, and the parents of local transgender teenagers, about the impact of the recent Supreme Court ruling which upholds bans on gender-affirming care for minors. https://austinfreepress.org/supreme-sadness/

Prize-winning Japanese language novelist Li Kotomi is suing Kofu city assembly rep Muramatsu Hiromi for outing her as transgender. Li, who's Taiwanese, changed her gender before arriving in Japan. She's suing for 5.5 million yen ($38K).

Come listen to another cozy Elder Scrolls reading~ 
This time, we have a series of interviews with the head of the Emperor's guards, recounting experiences from her storied life.
Succubard Gently Reads [[Words and Philosphy]](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pXljjO9NH70)
This is another book that feels like it has much more story than lore, though for those of you with a keen ear and mind, you will probably be able to spot some key lines that have in them more lore than it may first appear. It's odd to think that, out of the relatively few stories in which a Bosmer features as a main character, I've done two back to back 
Speaking of Bosmer, I envisaged Lady Allena Benoch as a mature, experienced woman and tried to express that in her voice. Hopefully, you like how she came out

This story is of the lonely vigil of a soldier tasked with holding a keep by himself.
Succubard Gently Reads [[The Rear Guard]](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y10rOGO1jIE)
Compared to my usual lore-heavy books, this one is very much a story first and a source of lore second. It's also one of the first few stories I read on stream, back when I was still contemplating whether people would even like listening to me read, and it's since become a regular during streams 
I hope you all find it just as charming as I do~

This one is a short little story told from the perspective of a priestess of Dibella
Succubard Gently Reads [Dibella's Mysteries and Revelations]
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LoawUAZR6_U
It feels odd to have a story so true to what Dibella stands for yet also disconnected from the worldly affairs that are usually considered "lore". Even [Night Falls On Sentinel] wasn't quite this oblivious to wider events, but I think that's also part of its charm.

This time, we're headed off the topic of Oblivion and onto...oh, the effects of one of the Daedric princes of Oblivion on Tamrielic goings-on? 
Succubard Gently Reads: [The Brothers of Darkness]
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Ta3DgLgY4A
Yup, it's the dark brotherhood, a group that stems from an earlier group who was born of a worship for Mephala The Dark Brotherhood quest-line is, as I hear it, a lot of people's favourites when it comes to The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, from the way it's introduced to how it plays out, and it's often used as a barometer to measure other quest-lines up against, both in Oblivion and in other TES games.
Hopefully, you enjoy getting a bit of a look into the history of the organisation~

This recording was honestly frustrating as hell to get recorded because of environmental factors leading to somewhere between 30+ discarded takes, but it was worth it, and I can't wait until tomorrow comes so I can work on the next one Thank you all for supporting me so far, and I hope you like the reading~

How are we meant to survive in a Wasteland of capitalism and patriarchal control?
My new book "Black Seeds: Wild Anarchy Growing in the Wasteland" tries to answer that question honestly. It has three sections: "On Nothing", which discusses nihilism, 'A Queer Apocalypse in the Wasteland" which discusses anarchist, queer, trans and sex issues in the context of patriarchy and capitalism, and "alchemical anarchy" which is my version of what we need to do to survive. Its not a short book but you only have to read the bits that you like.
Today I published my latest book, "Black Seeds: Wild Anarchy Growing in the Wasteland".

Reminder:
There's a thing you can sign!
It's for an EU-wide ban on so-called "conversion therapy" of queer people.
Please sign it! Lots of member states haven't met the minimum threshold yet!
