Social grace, emotional restraint, and **poise** create the center of _Good Society_, a Jane Austen roleplaying game. One player can act in a facilitator role, the closest this game has to a GM, but this role isn’t required. Play is diceless, supported by custom cards. Players create webs of connections to secondary characters. I missed this original Kickstarter, but they appear… poised… to kickstart a second edition soon.

CW: Potential Spoilers for “Sanditon” Season 3
I was being a cultured #Queer, watching a Public Television adaptation of an unfinished #Georgian-era romance novel, when an aristocrat confessed to his male confidant that “most men enjoy pheasant but I prefer grouse”. I thought my English was OK but I barely figured out from context that the guy was outing himself. I suppose being obtuse was one of many necessary safety precautions back then.

Washington College is doing an English Country Dancing Class this spring. Fortunately, the militia isn't encamped in town (thanks, constitution), but I fully expect a man of good fortune to be properly entangled in misunderstandings and romance.
