I'm making a moon crater for my final, 20th level session of my 4-year long 5e Dungeons and Dragons campaign and wanted to share the in-progress pictures (in part because it'll keep me working so I don't slack off 😂)
Next steps: first coat of plaster, then add bottlecaps to create smaller craters.

Hate to be posting this on a holiday, but there's been renewed interest in the CIA-backed Zero Units in Afghanistan. Here's a good summary of @propublica.org's 2022 reporting on the units and just some of the civilian casualties they were responsible for:

USian is funny and goofy and definitely unnecessary, but the discourse around it starts to approach "honkey is a slur" very quickly.

White House hedges on Trump’s curious claim about his call with Brazil’s Bolsonaro White House hedges on Trump’s curious claim about his call with Brazil’s Jair Bolsonaro
Did the Republican president talk to Bolsonaro as the Brazilian plotted to escape? Trump said yes, but the White House isn’t so sure.

Today is an excellent day to restore Link’s account, as other people who did the exact same thing were only given short suspensions.
He was one of the most positive voices here and he deserves to be reinstated.

I can't stop watching this game-winning punt from Ethan Evans. The Seahawks could easily have won this game and every inch counted.
As a Rams fan, I suppose I'd rather be lucky than good, but I sure like getting to be both. 😁

The Rams absolutely needed a healthy dose of luck to get away with the win today, which is astounding when your defense spots you four INTs.
The Seahawks are always a tough draw, and Seattle in mid-December is going to be wild. Looking forward to the rematch and as always, fuck the 49ers.
