The throwing of the Sandwich at an opponent is done as an attack roll but on a successful hit has the effects of the Bard spell Vicious Mockery (2d4 psychic damage, disadvantage on next attack roll)
The range increments of a full subway sandwich are only 10/20 so you have disadvantage on your throw more than a few paces away. You can double the range with a half-sandwich wrapped tightly and druis have a fifth-level subclass feature that removes disadvantage if the sandwich has sprouts
It's not in this article but the government asserts that the sandwich was thrown at "point blank range", which implies subway sandwiches have defined effective weapon ranges of varying lethality, and I would like to see the government's chart of these ranges.

Hey on this Election Eve, let’s remember to leave out a plate of middle fingers for the members of the press who were just asking questions about Biden’s declining health.

I genuinely and sincerely fucking believe this.

People living in buildings believing they will stay up is why so many horrifically unsafe buildings do not fall down. Literally the belief is critical. The inertia helps, but the belief matters more. This is why vacant buildings decay SO fucking fast!
Houses are held up by inertia and shared delusions

FUCK UP THE SYSTEM ALERT:

Southerners on New Ground is organizing a Grocery Solidarity Network for folks in the South. You can sign up to be a grocery deliverer/funder or grocery recipient. I signed up to support Central Texans, you can do the same for your area!

Smart woman.

Swear. Her. In.
Grijalva: I do think that Speaker Johnson misplayed his hand.

There are people all over this nation who were out there with signs that said, “Swear her in.” They wouldn’t have even known about me otherwise.

Thank you for highlighting how corrupt the system you’re protecting really is.

I just got to tell a young adult (20-something as best I can tell) on TikTok, who posted about the idea of queer & neurodivergent escape fantasy stories about The Wayward Children and I am so excited for them to be finding those books for the first time.

CNN Speaker Johnson I don’t know montage
Guys really need to do this too except with "Don't be that guy!" and "WTF are you thinking?!" or dragging the guy bragging about being a sex pest into the street for a "talk". Hell, guys just need to communicate in general dammit.

Incidentally this is why it's so devastating when a convention fucks up dealer table placement / layout, doesn't advertise or promote the existence or whereabouts of the attending indie creators, etc.

We're on shoestring budgets, and failing to break even can ruin us.
So many of us can only afford to do conventions because we know someone nearby who will let us crash on their couch, or we're banding together to break up the cost of a rental apartment / hotel room.

I've never worked so hard in my life to stand absolutely still.

I don't resent poor people who use food stamps to buy another soft drink.

I resent rich people who take away the funds for food stamps to buy another yacht.

Today is Kelpie's third birthday. She is more than halfway to her final size, and will probably not experience any more major growth spurts. (She's so weird, hormonally, that she'll probably get six inches longer tomorrow just because I typed this.)

Very, very few comic book creators can survive on just the money they make from comics. It is an inherently unstable job and it is only getting worse as time goes on. Don't ever be embarrassed or ashamed of needing another job so that you can keep making comics.

We've lost another #StarTrek legend. The great #RIPRalphSenensky, the director of 7 great TOS eps like "The Paradise Syndrome" & "Metamorphosis", wrongly fired form "Tholian Web," and then lived long to blog and share it all, was 102. Blessed to have talked/hosted him for us all.

An addendum to yesterday's thread: I specified food stamps as opposed to SNAP yesterday because when I was a kid, all the "fraud" bogeymen were people selling their stamps. They were physical things that could be sold or stolen, and couldn't be traced.

Love having BlueSky hiding things. It doesn't give me flashbacks to being attacked over Twitter's tendency to rate-limit replies AT ALL. (People assume you see every reply. Esp. if you have 20k+ followers, YOU DON'T. Ever.)
The most completely mundane replies being hid in my mentions without my consent or control is absolutely ridiculous and outrageous.

@pfrazee.com y’all gotta give us back control of our own accounts this is out of hand.

Literally hid a cat picture someone sent me.
