Today on the NSR discord (with @lumpley ) we discovered that “fiction first” doesn’t come from Apocalypse World. At least, not directly. It seems to have entered the discussion around AW, particularly we think from people applying the MC principle “make a move, but don’t speak its name” to PCs.
We think the first time “fiction first” appeared in a game was Dungeon World.
I definitely think it’s worth re-reading the actual MC principles again.
Nej, idag fick jag inte mycket gjort från todo-listan. Istället blev det en massa möten och bränder som behövde släckas. Men nu blir det #AW i #Malmö på det. #livetSomITKonsult
Det där som #MartinBetner varnade för hände idag på kalaset. En av föräldrarna föreslog att alla vi förskoleföräldrar skulle ut på #AW tillsammans. #småbarnsförälder

@konahart I'm afraid we're going to need a fair amount more information than that to help out much. In particular, which specific instantiation of the rules are you using?
For example, in Blades in the Dark, you would probably do it with a combination of Sway, Consort, and Flashbacks, blended together in a lovely smoothie.
Conversely, if I'm playing Starforged it's generally going to be a Gather Information or Compel move – and still might involve throwing down a flashback just for the joy of it all.
If we go all the way back to Apocalypse World, then what you want is to read a charged situation (Read a Stitch), which lets you ask the MC questions directly.
If we fast-forward to Band of Blades there are a ton of examples of how to use Research.
So you're going to have to be more explicit and specific.
(Honestly, sitting around doing research is not really the mode for playing PbtA games. At least not modern ones. It's less intrusive and more effective to get into the meat, get into the play, and then use flashbacks to deal with HAVING researched the thing that's currently opposing you.)
Normalize Unionizing Fast Food Restaurants!!
This is the best part of this story: “Andrews said the employees were looking for help communicating with new management, who workers said is consistently ignoring any concerns they bring forward.”
When people know why unions exist (to help speak for employees!) they seek them out!

From last night: Squid was so tired from sitting out in the sun all day that he passed right out. I nearly popped my shoulder taking this while also trying not to wake him, but it was so worth it

My previous post was about the #Gardener Katherine White.
After she died, her husband E.B. White, #Author of #CharlottesWeb, wrote a little #Verse for their close #Friends & #Family.
To all who #Loved my lovely #Wife.
To all who spoke their #Sorrow,
I send this printed card of #Thanks
So l can face #Tomorrow.
I'd hoped to write a full reply
To each, to say #ILoveYou.
But I'll #Reveal the sticky #Truth:
There's just too many of you.

#OTD Olaus #Rudbeck, #Swedish #Botanist, died.
In his #FirstJob as #Botany #Professor, Olaus #Expected a Full #Class, but no one showed.
He #Cried.

In Frederica Rowan's #Biography, she writes,
"Recovering from his #Momentary #Weakness, Olaus [did] for #Botany what he had for #Anatomy.
He [created] a #Botanical #Garden...
[and when] #Admiring #Visitors #Gathered [there]...
He would #Instill #Knowledge into them...
Even #Against their #Will."

Joseph accomplished much in 94 years. He was the #President of the #RoyalSociety and director of #Kew - the Royal #BotanicGarden.
He created a #Network of #Botanic #Gardens around the #World to enhance the world's economy & promote trade.
He was #BestFriends w/ #CharlesDarwin.
#FunFact: Kew #Gardens says that Joseph would begin #Letters to his young son this way:
"To my dear little #Lion" or "my dear #Cub."
#Aw.
Every summer, I work w/ #Student #Gardeners. The #Flexibility, #Photography, & #Time in the #Garden make it a good #Gig.
Since most of these kids have never #Gardened before, they are often #Surprised at how much they enjoy #Gardening & #Nature.

There can be no other #Occupation like #Gardening in which, if you were to creep up behind someone at their work, you would find them #Smiling.
