"Why do we strive for more social acceptance? Why do we aim for higher production value and better marketing? Why do we want more media coverage? Who will profit and what will it cost?"
amazing, necessary read on the commodification of #larp:

i said this yesterday but i'm gonna say it again more plainly:
DON'T. STEAL. FROM. BLACK. WOMEN.
DON'T. STEAL. FROM. BROWN. WOMEN.
DON'T. STEAL. FROM. INDIGENOUS. WOMEN.
DON'T. STEAL. FROM. MARGINALIZED. PEOPLE.
this isn't hard. just give credit where it's due.
if you’re a #larp creator in Canada, i’m updating my list for @Embodied_Fest - reach out if you’re interested in being on it!
it doesn’t matter if you’ve made one larp or one hundred, i’d love to know about you and your work! #EmbodiedFest

ugh ok fine thread:
THINGS YOU SHOULD REASONABLY EXPECT IF YOU PAY A LOT OF $$$ FOR A LARP:
- regular communication on the state of event
- reasonable response time (48-72 hrs-ish) to email
- clear, coherent info on the in-game world
- clear, coherent info on how to interact OOC
“People are more important than games.” 😍
@noizangel talking Nelly’s By Night and designing accessible, transparent, collaborative larp game mechanics and rules centered around consent negotiations.
We were in the #RegentPark neighbourhood and took some pics of our amazing venue for #EmbodiedFest, @DanielsSpectrum! Looking forward to filling the space with #larp in a few months!
We've got 3 rad talks for ya this Saturday at our October Social 👻
→ @noizangel on a consent-based vampire larp
→ @dianapoulsen on horror theatre & haunted houses
→ Dikla Revah on her future-of-gender game Neutrois
5-7pm • free • all welcome

@JackalopeLARP @LarParazzi We can say that if you’re not making much of a profit, White Wolf won’t be asking for a lot to run a game. There’s levels mostly based on what you’re doing, as @JackalopeLARP explained - somewhat individual circumstances.
Today's #VtMInktober project has a special place in my heart: "#Vamily." Here we have the residents of Nell Gwynn's kindred brothel in @fair_escape's #NellysbyNight#LARP. They have their issues, but the safety of the house comes first and they all have each other's back. Mostly.
We're excited and proud to announce Canada’s first festival for larp & immersive art, @Embodied_Fest! March 14 & 15, 2020 at @Artscape@DanielsSpectrum!

Art share, again from #NellysbyNight. First is Olour party girl #Toreador, Druzy. Second is the moment after another Torrie Willow, was embraced (as seen from the mirror on the ceiling of that room). #vampirethemasquerade#LARP#penandink
nell: ok you’re right, this beckoning is a thing, i should totally go to sleep
edward & dolores: ok cool

nell, in her head: dammit, i didn’t mean now!
