In September of 2020, a conspiracy began to dig up the corpse of TSR Inc and parade it around for profit. This villainous act of vile necromancy continues to this day.


The following refers to events prior to the injunction, and the Dungeon Crawl cards (more on that to follow), but is still relative and insightful to the mess that is nuTSR.

So while there is a protective order in place to prevent Justin harassing witnesses and other participants in TSR LLC vs. Wizards of the Coast lawsuit - this of course does nothing to deter someone who is so self-absorbed that they do not believe that concepts like legal accountability apply to them.

Enter the latest round of harassment, which has, of course, included anonymous emails where it seems pretty likely we all know who the sender is, and are now laden with more profanity and personal abuse.

A screenshot of an email sent to Don Semora via Anonymouse email service, it has frequent censorship marks due to the heavy profanity and seems to direct a lot of ire at Don and his wife.

But, of course, someone (can't say who for liability reasons but you can draw your own conclusions - remember this is just the opinion of a bystander) registered a Mario Real account on Facebook... exclusively to attack a member of the Star Frontiers: New Genesis (Unofficial) Group.

Why this particular member? Well it seems that whoever this is, using Mario Real, an alias that Don Semora says Justin bragged about using, does not like women being confident and having opinions - also does not respect sex workers.

A screenshot of the profile with the majority of the post pixelated out to protect the identity of the person targeted, who is still clearly a woman who uses pink hair highlights and is referred to by Mario Real as "Known prostitute."

This, clearly anonymous, individual also attempted to join the group to further perpetuate the harassment of a member - who again - seems to have been singled out for being a confident woman. It didn't work out well for him:

A screenshot of a Facebook comment by Thomas Verreault Jr "In less than 57 minutes Mario Real went from requesting membership in this group to the above post removed then the whole account removed from Facebook. That is what you get for being an asshat." with a screencap showing the account requesting to participate.

Of course, for legal reasons I should also mention that while nuTSR does, from time to time, disavow responsibility for the harassment - they never seem to decry the statements that these harassment accounts make (though maybe that'll change in court).

Coincidentally around the same time, Dungeon Hobby Shop Museum started demonstrating their commitment to "no politics" by sharing a post accusing two individuals of using the DailyKos of getting a comic project suspended from Kickstarter (because Comicsgate aspirant Ryan Palmer shared it), and the worst possible interpretation of A Clockwork Orange by a guy who calls himself a philosopher but literally only knows random quotes he reads on motivational posters, and copy-pastes from fellow reactionaries.

A screenshot of Dungeon Hobby Shop Museum's Facebook page reharing a post by RJ Carter to Comic Related Madness "Tonight at 8pm ET: Who is Starr Mignon and Gavriel Discordia, how did they get Private American suspended from Kickstarter, and what does that mean going for... (see more). A Youtube thumbnail with "Live with Chris Braly. On 12/8/2022, a mass-flagging effort coordinated on DailyKos resulted in Mike Baron and..." A screenshot of Dungeon Hobby Shop Museum posting a link to a Youtube video with caption of "sound familiar? What an interesting watch." with the title of the video being "A CLOCKWORK ORANGE'S Prediction of DYSTOPIAN DEMOCRACY: the Rise & Failure of AUTHORITARIANISM" and the thumbnail declaring it "LIBERALISM GOING MAD!"

So yeah, while the rest of the TTRPG world has been discussing:

  • Dragonlance return (with a board game for massive battles)
  • Dungeons & Dragons is 50 years old
  • The Wizards of the Coast executives think D&D is under monetized fiasco
  • One D&D
  • General nostalgia

These guys are apparently so short on topics to talk about that they're re-sharing nonsense about comic Kickstarters and terrible attempts at media analysis.

Not exactly reassuring... but like, then again, neither is the recent demo of their "work" (more on that in a bit)
