Please do not fly off the handle, but in the recently bumped up, thanks to yours truly, Exalted 2nd Ed spoiler thread of rpg.net's forums I've touched upon...
I'm reading this link now: http://www.strangehorizons.com/2004/20041025/kinga.shtml I think this link is clear. I think the best FIRST thing to do is make a...
I tried every search term I could think of but could not find this wikipedia article. Got a URL for it? ... <0){{{{>< http://home.pacbell.net/arcady0/ Blog:...
Ah... I've seen this guy recently in 'Legend of Bagger Vance'. They had that on late night cable a week or so ago... This guy has been in cop shows since the...
Yeah. My wife and I refer to this character as the "mystic minority," and he (and she) has a long tradition in film. Especially horror film, where the mystic...
I have one thanks to say and then would like to make a contribution to this issue. First, I want to thank you ALL for continuing to share your perspectives...
... And a big part of the problem is that they are never the main characters. The one you identify with is almost always ("always" until recently) a white...
Very interesting thoughts. I see a lot of potential in the idea of viewing these as an attempt to neuter and control -- subjugate, really -- legitimate black...
Sorry about the slowness on moderation today. I've been away from a working computer all day (my PC is currently getting restored from the recovery CDs...). ...
This is sorta why I brought it up about the signature character Panther. All the characters are half-casted archetypes. Swan is notoriously all Bishie...
Thanks for the attempt to explain the issue with this Exalted character, I think you are on to something, but I really don't know enough about the game, the...
Bagger Vance and The Green Mile are two of those movies I call the "Thank God For Black People" movies. They seem to pop up as some sort of panacea for folks...
Good one Dania, interesting article you gave us there. Been think about this stuff lately as I tramp through Eastern Europe (now in Slovakia, awaiting my visa...
... Honestly, if RPGs where actually of any social prominence in society, any Asian could sue WW for 'negligent infliction of emotional distress' joined with...
Cheech Marin seemed to play this role in the recent Don Johnson TV show 'Nash Bridges' - but as a recurring sort of sidekick. And that leads in to a new Tommy...
Unbreakable is actually very much a classic comic book supers story, told without all the flash. It is like a short version of the 'Smallville' TV show. I'm...
Wrote a little piece last night on the implicit racism I find built into DnD: http://www.livejournal.com/users/arcady0/tag/race If you are an American in a one...
Nicely written. Good point about WoW; one of the things I tend to like about the world -- the races aren't forced along racial lines of who is "good" or...
I suppose that is what I get for only looking at WoW from a surface point of view. I've seen it played, and I've read the mythos they present online. I've also...
I've edited the 'article' to add this: There's a notion that in World of Warcraft characters spend a lot of time killing off indigenous races. Is this a racist...
Someone posted a comment on the "I hate monks" thread at ENWorld, and other than myself and ONE other person, nobody else even commented on the overwhelming...
You hit it right on the mark. I've told you all before that I now live in Hungary - many people here believe themselves to be descended from Asians,...
