Yeah, I love it, why do you ask?
Oooooooooooooh.
Is it just me, or do they try to make common words and phrases absolutely perverse and perverted?
Always have been.
There's a trend in TTRPGs to use safe words to avoid certain types of duress in a scene (like not wanting to play a scene with a lecherous NPC or a scene with gore, etc.).
I didn't think much of it at first, besides the fact that anyone who approaches the table that way is a retarded pussy. Then I saw a throwaway line in a forum to the effect of "you know this just normalizes BDSM in the wider public, right?" and now I can't not see a lot of new behavior and language in the light of "what is this attempting to tangentially normalize?" Or in the case of the NEA, directly normalize.
I'm terminally naive and initially thought it was a decent tool for navigating horror games at conventions.
Then I remembered writing exists and the GM could just put a content list at his table.
Then I remembered common sense exists (nominally) and you could just not play skeevy games with strangers.
