i think the 'microblogging' format is systemically toxic, b/c in order to post about something you either have to condense it into a parody of the actual thought, or post a thread in which any individual part may be hijacked with a click into a lateral decontextualized scrap of it

Today my Call of Cthulhu scenario "Sun Spots" is Deal of the Day on DTRPG. It was written in collaboration by gaming legend Keith 'Doc' Herber and contains dozens of illustrations by the amazing Reuben Dodd!

I spent the last 20 years watching scrub reclaim a barren farm field near my home; in recent years it was bustling with wildlife. It broke my heart when the landowner decided on a whim that it looked messy and mowed it all down to the roots. Scrub, brush, & thickets are criminally underappreciated.

you guys gotta prepare yourselves for real on what you will do when an ICE raid happens in front of you. remember SALUTE when reporting. REPORT IMMEDIATELY! call the hotline BEFORE you post on social media, BEFORE you text your friends, BEFORE you engage with ANY state or federal officers.

Classic CBC. "Bill could lead to law enforcement acting more freely in Canada"

How does a US bill lead to this, without Canada actively allowing this? Can we use the active voice? Can we actually use words the way that journalists are supposedly able to?
