After the challenges of the recycled dice, we've decided we're going to give all the Backerkit backers twice as many dice -- a set of six recycled (but not colored), and also six of the traditionally manufactured ones with gold lettering. And PROBABLY the larger size. Michelle decides.

Top right purple ones are the US-made recycled polypropylene. Top left is a resin 3D print of the size we are considering for the final dice made in China. Bottom are prototypes in the small/standard size in almost all the right colors (brown is missing and there are two blacks).

If you've been seeing news about "oh no there's a spike in farm bankruptcy"- it is NOT as simple as "farms go out of business & then investors buy them all."

In the current environment, where Trump simply ignores laws and appropriations he doesn't like, we mostly need it so that GOP elected are forced to go on the record approving of the corruption. It's a political opportunity to force Republicans to take a stand on it, on the record.

John Nephew @johnnephew.bsky.social · 7d

They absolutely should.

(Even though Trump would ignore such a law and give himself the $ anyway. What are they gonna do, impeach him over it?)

Reminder that Violent J of Insane Clown Posse has the correct response to a lot of the shitty things he said in the early days.

STEREOGUM: People my age, we talk about how we were lucky that we didn’t have social media growing up, and there’s no record of all the dumb shit we said and did. You didn’t have social media, but everything you said and did in those years is on record, and you’ve got to live with it now. That’s tough.

VIOLENT J: And the amount of gay Juggalos out there is really surprising. I think about them doing their research and getting the old records, getting excited about it, and getting their hearts broke or something, you know? I tell my daughter, “For the rest of your life, when your friends ask why your dad said that, say it’s because your dad was a fool. Don’t defend me. Say I was a fool then, but I’m not now.” There’s no excuse. I was going with the flow, and that’s the very thing we preach against — being a sheep. And that’s what I was doing.
