Y’all if you in Florida, ICE is driving around the Black and Latino neighborhoods playing Ice Cream Truck music from their white vans, keep your children inside and safe this shit ain’t a joke.

Post office jobs probably lifted more Black people out of poverty than any other entity. That’s why they hate it so much.

Final Girl, @vanrydergames.bsky.social, #PlayAllMonth, Day 15 (finally caught up)

Rena vs. Billy the Bear in Wolfe Asylum

Got unbelievably lucky with that Amped and no Side Effects on turn 1, but couldn't convert it. I need to do more Searching when I can't save.
#Boardgame #SoloBoardgaming

A completed game of Final Girl where the Girl has gotten a really good superpower from slugging down pills, but there were just too many Buddies to overcome.

Final Girl, @vanrydergames.bsky.social, #PlayAllMonth, Day 14

Adrianne vs. Mort in Santa's Village

Not sure how this story hangs together, but again, I did really well -- got every clue, saved a lot of Victims and Informants, and then got hooped on a couple of rolls.
#Boardgame #SoloBoardgaming

A truly random completed game of Final Girl, wherein Mort the Teenage Dirtbag has successfully ended the game thanks to just epically bad dice rolls.

Final Girl, @vanrydergames.bsky.social, #PlayAllMonth, Day 13

Gwynn vs. the Tormentor in Creech Manor

Did really well. Only lost one victim to a trap. And then Tormentor's Finale came out, and I was doomed.
#Boardgame #SoloBoardgaming

A completed game of Final Girl, wherein the Tormentor gets two attacks per turn, thereby hosing the titular Girl.

Huh, I feel like we've spent the last decade-plus living in absolute terror of what any random sophomore says about any position left of "Yay Reagan!" and now it's "Just kids blowing off steam in a group chat (never mind that some of them are in their 30s and working in Republican spaces)...".

Probably just a 1- or 2-person retirement/empty-nest/rich-spouse/hobby endeavor.

I'm surprised to see Air Force so high, and absolutely boggled that someone managed to squeeze between Army and Navy.

She wasn't even signed to a label by the time it hit #1.

One of the local gas stations had an ATM that would only give out one bill at a time, so you had to pay the fee over and over again. Fuck 'em.

Rumi from KPop Demon Hunters, wagging her finger. A speech bubble suggests that she is saying the quoted skeet.

It’s been just long enough that they forgot that minimum wage and weekends and such were the compromise offered against “How about we start burning down the mansions for heat?”

I’d be okay with him getting a return pop in the Rumble and a decent in-ring bit before getting tossed well before the Final Four. And then he can go to commentary or produce.

Plus there are at least eight other people running in the Democratic primary, including the last Democrat to win a primary for the US Senate in Maine.

Yeah, given that he's gonna make $8M/year regardless of what he does, the only reason to jump back to coaching ASAP is if he just straight-up hates everything else he could be doing.

Dude lost bowl games to Navy and the only Pac-10 team that never went to the Rose Bowl and he thinks he gets to talk about anything. smh

What a bunch of Dick's.

Lot of great stuff here, but can we go back to "sports squad" for a second? Is that, like, where they put the cops who are ringers on the softball team?

Only place I've ever been pulled over for "not signaling a lane change".

This is absolutely all a lead-in to a tonic con.
