Here's an easy way to fight back against both this unconstitutional "pocket rescission" AND pressure the administration to spend the FY24 global health funding that will expire a month from tomorrow. These dollars don't help if the government doesn't actually spend them!: act.pih.org/sept-30-fund...

Oh, actually, they very likely *will* have it online! I was just speculating, but it turns they already have a spot for it on the site, for selling anything left over from the live shows: shop.critrole.com/collections/...

I basically only know about them from a couple of Nerdfighters and still don’t *really* know who they are. Until today I assumed they were just like Rhett and Link or the American (or maybe Canadian) Gavin and Dan lol

So the poem is self-explanatory. The town: Revere. The pots and pans are Revere Ware, started in 1939 by Revere Copper and Brass Corp, from the Revere Copper Company, which was started by Paul Revere and whose mill is now a historical site requiring streets with enough traffic for a four-way light.

One man is responsible for a red light I almost always hit on my way to work, the pots and pans I grew up with that will outlive us all, the name of a town not really all that close to me, and a somewhat historically inaccurate poem.

(It’s Paul Revere.)

It's time again as a notable Italian-American to note Christopher Columbus was an absolute piece of shit human who didn't land anywhere near this actual country so why the fuck should he stop the mail for the whole day

Anyway, Happy Indigenous People's Day, y'all

Like imagine your optometrist dad going “Oh your glasses have a scratch? I can buff that out with some sandpaper.” Everyone should know better, but him in particular!

Beanedict Cumbfurbatch @beanedictc.dftba.social · 1d

It literally happened like 2 weeks ago. Something was sticking, so dad put it in a vise *clamped around the valve casings* and tried to pull some stuff. Obviously, that led to more things sticking.

The worst part? *Dad plays trumpet himself!*

Wonderful #NYCC day today. Got to see Celia Rose Gooding and others from SNW and the new Starfleet Academy in a panel, and ended with a trip through Artist Alley where I got these incredible playmats from @tylerwalpole.bsky.social and @crystalsully.bsky.social!

A TCG playmat with Tyler Walpole’s gorgeous art of the Mighty Nein in all their spellcasting, sword-slinging glory, plus Matt the DM flipping through a magical tome. It’s very much an “Avengers assemble!” collection of the characters all around Matt. It is signed Tyler Walpole 2025.

Another TCG playmat, this time probably the sickest dragon you’ve ever experienced, by Crystal Sully. The image is a lot of blues, purples, and pinks, and with the greens and bright bright pinks in just the right places, it feels like looking at an intricate blacklight poster, when in reality it’s only illuminated by a normal hotel room lamp. The mat is signed in the lower left Crystal Sully

I didn’t make *new* new Nerdfighter friends at D(e)ad, but I did meet up with some for the second time, and happened to run into another unplanned! And yes the movie was so fun!
