This guy also manages the Vintage Pizza Slut shirt and their group and turns out he used to work at Butner as the person in charge of the Civil Commitment program. It also turns out he’s the one that made the call to ban D&D in the SOMP program. So during our next to last session I mention I found a D&D group to start playing with and I noticed he had kind of a negative reaction. “I mean, it’s fine” he said. “I just worry that it disconnects people from reality when I want them to go out and live in reality and live their lives.” He went on to say he wasn’t worried about me but he had almost an immediate knee jerk response to D&D because of the negative impact he had seen when he was running the program at Butner. After talking with him a few minutes I disagreed that D&D was a negative experience for most people, but started to come around that it could actually be bad for certain inmates.
