I should explain why I go by "mother" now.

#1 "Mama Dao" can be slang for blowjob in LATAM.

That's all. 😅

Jkjk I like to think this marks a new grown up era now. More mature, smarter, and stronger.

Names are strong, and with this rebrand I feel even stronger.

Insurance screwed him.
Over $60k lost in a blink of an eye.

All we can really do is try to pick everything up and try to push each other forward.

If you're in the CA Bay Area, please stop by and purchase something to help out. Stop by on a weekday and get unlimited arcade freeplay for only $5.

The arcade/LGS I've been working for got robbed last week, & I been processing with how unfair the world is for a bit. All the owner does is work his ass off to support the communities who are grateful to have a 3rd place.

Then this happens.

Attention local TCG communities and card shops!As some of you know, there have been a chain of TCG/LGS break ins, and unfortunately Magitek was a target as of last night. We have already performed the proper steps of reaching out to the authorities and insurance companies, so please just use this post as a way to spread awareness and prevent this from happening to other small businesses.We would also like to apologize to our guest for any inconveniences while we sort things out. We will continue to stay open, but will be unable to take cash payments for the time being. Life may throw you some hurdles and curve balls, but we are grateful that no one was hurt and will continue to work hard to bounce back from this frustrating set back. Thank you all for your support, may these scumbags find the justice they deserve. 🙇‍♂️

Holy shit. I bought a good chunk of the series from a used book store way back in college.

Good job past me!

Mother Dao @motherdao.bsky.social · 1d

Reading "Ender's Game" after only reading the Marvel Comic version, and omg it's so relevant to the military complex.

The book is so much better and has so many little messages and lessons. I really can't wait to continue the rest of the series and to experience "Ender's Shadow" as an adult.

Ok my brain is good again.

I just found out that @katieporteroc.bsky.social is running for Governor of California.

The world is healing, and I highly encourage everyone to do your own research to see exactly why I like her so much. When you're done, go tell at least 3 more people about her.

Katie Porter @katieporteroc.bsky.social · 7d

Grateful to have @emilyslist.bsky.social by my side in this campaign. Now more than ever, we need leaders with backbone who will cut through the BS and deliver for families.

And there’s nothing that Donald Trump hates more than facing down a strong, powerful woman. 💪🏻
