Dungeons & Dragons turns 50 this year. The tabletop role playing game has gone through a lot in that time, from its initial rise, fall, and recent resurgence. NPR’s Glen Weldon talks about the moment that prompted his lifelong fascination with D&D, starting as a closeted teen in the early 1980s. “’I want to be an Illusionist,’ I said, firmly, which caused my fellow players to roll their eyes and mutter the first of what would turn out to be a sustained pattern of homophobic slurs in my general direction. I didn’t, and still don’t, care. I was fierce, and I was fabulous.” https://flip.it/wCAJ6G
