Just relaying this article from Anne, over at DIY & dragons.
You know how the OSR sphere talks about "jaquaying dungeons" since that 2010 article from Justin Alexander ?
Well, remember it's actually jaquaysing – my inner proofwriter has always been irritated by that typo –, and that Mr. Alexander really shouldn't rename it "xandering" after himself. Dishonest, distasteful, trans people erasing (the article says it all much better than I could), and it's an ugly word on top of that.
So please, go jaquays 'em dungeons. That's good game design.
(Also, thank you, Anne. You're always doing good work with what I call "community" posts, and I've been reading your blog with interest.)
