It’s kind of fun that this morning all the chatter is about two characters I came up with that were a bit controversial at the time; Scandal Savage, a lesbian in a polyamorous marriage…and Alysia Yeoh, first trans character in the bay-verse.
Neat.
:)
Sorry, BAT-verse.
:)
In both cases, we were prepared for hateful pushback.
Instead, both characters became wildly popular and were embraced by the readership.
Scandal has appeared in DC animated films, and Alysia has had a life in Bombshells and now a big budget movie by a wonderful actress.
This is neither in defense nor condemnation of Ezra Miller. Two things seem to be true: they seem to be in crisis, and are also causing harm. Beyond that, I don't know anything about them except I liked them in Justice League.
I sorta met them one time.
1/
I was at the DC booth at San Diego Comic Con the year before Justice League was going to come out. It's always been my favorite comic, I was excited it was getting made into a movie. The booth was two stories that year, I was doing interviews on the top (open floor).
2/
The booth was always slammed, but I could look over and see the crowd being parted by security, and walking through the Red Sea of people was the Justice League. As a JL fan, it was thrilling.

So, the lovely folks at @MongoosePub said they would like to ‘send a few things’ and after finding out they published new versions of a couple of my all-time favorite RPGS, I got all happy and excited.
Oh, man, the lovely @greenleafgeek said she would love to send me a set of custom dice, and I LOVE DICE so I said yes, and she said it would be a ‘tea set’ because as you know I love tea and am an expert in all things tea-related.
I JUST GOT THEM YESTERDAY.

BOOM.
LOOK AT THESE GORGEOUS PRECIOUS TEA MATH CLACKERS
The quality is ridiculous, they just FEEL like precious gems.
And they have gorgeous tea items inside, plus liquid gold tea!
We were just on a flight from Denver to Oregon, and we witnessed a transformation.
It was either disturbing or awesome.

Our flight attendant was a lovely young lady, with her hair up so it looked kind of short. She was lovely and sweet and the perfect representative of her airline.
Or so we all THOUGHT.

So she is the only member of the crew in the cabin, it’s a small plane. And perhaps consequently, she really, really wanted to make the rules clear. She must have said eight times that we needed to put our phones in airplane mode.
