		<description><![CDATA[So Gencon is over. I didn&#8217;t make the whole thing because I&#8217;m buried under a metric ton of work which is sucking my will to live, but the con was, nonetheless, a blast. I played: 1) My Life With Master. Master (in this case, Mistress) won. Hardcore. 2) Misspent Youth, which was FANTASTIC. Expect more [...]]]></description>
