For other people's context, this is a postcard sent to my home address because I live at the enlistment address of a soldier (airman) killed at Juno Beach.

Can you help support Amal? Kiva is a loan, not a donation. With Kiva you can lend as little as $25 and make a big change in someone's life.

Thanks to our generous Lumberjill Benefactor @jenkatwrites.bsky.social a War Birds Kiva Loan has been sent to Amal - a sewist and Syrian refugee sheltering in Jordan. Because of good timing we were able to get a Kiva partner to double the impact of Jen's generosity!

With 48 hours left, Lumberjills is funded and $1,812 away from reaching the first stretch goal! Because Lumberjills in the woods is extra magical, it lets us hire someone to make the dance card generator work while offline.

And so once again I've proven that I'm too verbose for social media, so I'll end it here. But please check out this game! I have put so much thought, work and rigour into making it accessible & blooming, and I really want it to live in the world.โค๏ธ๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ’›๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’œ

And the game includes a Director's support section "On Queer Romance" that includes a bunch of what I have said here, and direction on how to navigate it effectively in play.

And all of these desires and decisions are supported and actualized by the community of players, and the framework of the game.

Jills might be considered women by the WTC, but the game's characters are set up mindfully to be slightly askew with their relationship to the demands of femininity. There has been once or twice where playtesters have decided to choose a future of transitioning.

And of course, besides just women loving women, there is other queer capacity in the game. Wooing might be a core action in the game, but choosing what your want for life is too. And that includes deciding that maybe you want *none* of this love or sex business in your life!

And there is a selection of non-male suitors if the other PCs aren't interesting or interested. The game includes exactly enough possibility so that everybody who wants to could find queer love, AND ALSO find a tangible sense of what queer history was like in the past.

But this game is a historical game. It assumes that queer romance is possible, but that it's also a little around the corner. A little harder to find, a little more triumphant to secure. So PCs can of course find each other (and have, with frequency)...
