True story: one of my friends transitioned and came to Renfair as a new character. I came to viait, saw her at a table in character, and could not remember her character name.

FINALLY THE PAPER REALIZES ITS TRUE POTENTIAL AS A ROLLED UP WEAPON TO BE USED AGAINST JEFF BEZOS
Lmao WaPo has fewer than 100K circulation now. It turns out “alienate your liberal subscriber base” is not a good strategy when the Republicans also hate you. www.forbes.com/sites/andyme...

I have had multiple people call me a bard OUTSIDE of a Renfair environment this week, and I am 100% not certain how I feel about that beyond "I ... am RESISTANT to calling myself that"

TODAY I LEARNED that since an Banjolele from the Outdoor Ukulele Company of Bend, OR is designed to take a high G (20) string - specifically in the clever slotty thing at the tailpiece - One cannot restring it with a low G (40) string.

Some people apparently have very strong takes on whether it's required to have a take, and some mean names to go with them.
My point is that when everyone else already has a take about something you don't feel like investing your mental energy in, it's cool to sit this one out. Take the day off.

Charlie Kirk spent his life‘s work and all of his energy and time targeting out-groups while arguing for a world in which gun massacres would be easy to enact, plentiful, and inevitable, and he became famous and wealthy doing it, and we’re now not supposed to mention that because it’s not polite.
