We are Transplanar RPG, an all-trans POC-led Actual Play channel telling stories in an original noncolonial, anti-orientalist world.
Our transness is expansive, poetic, grief-stricken, complicated, beautiful, vicious, and part of everything we do. These stories are for us first.

Holding space for your trans friends isn’t enough. You need to watch Transplanar RPG, an all-transgender, people of color-led TTRPG show set in a noncolonial, antiorientalist multiverse where we radically imagine the worlds we’ll make beyond and outside of white supremacy. You need to give us money

THIS is why I’m so passionate about @TransplanarRPG; we envision diasporic trans methodologies of rage, grief and joy. Noncolonial worldbuilding is a practice of resistance. 🧵

The Chaos Protocol is a story about grief.
It is also a story about revolution, and vengeance, and rage, and catharsis, and growth, and hope, and love — told by an all-trans, majority-POC table.
Watch us remake the world this Saturday (11/9) at 8pm ET. Show up for our stories. 🌸

Not to mention how deeply sexist and oftentimes racist these kinds of comments are, one would think enjoying the explicitly noncolonial and anti-orientalist show would make fans think twice about posting them on our Youtube page! But alas!

It’s part of our ethos of storytelling in a noncolonial, anti-orientalist world. We do not portray colonizers, racists, fascists, or bigots — ever. Not even as villains.
We are in a unique position to complexify western ideas of antagonists because we don’t run the risk of giving a racist nuance.

There’s an anticolonial line of thought that it’s prima facie impossible for any noncolonial* culture to kill on a scale that’s frankly well attested every place humans have existed.

Which is bullshit as serfdom was a crucial part of feudalism, an institution that lasted in noncolonial Europe well into the 19th century, ending in Russia in 1881. Then there's the lack of enlightenment.
