Sad to hear Dick Cheney died,
because it would have been hilarious to have him watch NYC elect a Socialist Muslim Mayor
A year in the DM seat is not "measly" that is steely eyed veteran territory.
Place the thing in front of them and then *release* to see what they do with it; leaning in to whatever they do next.

Sometimes it doesn work out at all and the party turns its nose up and goes away from that precious idea of mine. Gotta let that happen too.
God damn I do love me a good Quantum Ogre. But there is an art to it. Its a strong spice capable of ruining the meal. Ive come up with *something* I want the group to encounter. But I want to be mindful of "The release".
Movable Keys and Quantum Ogres can offer you the most flexible adventures you've ever created.

Today I'm talking about how understanding these mechanics is crucial to writing one shots.

This is part 3 in the series, but does stand alone, or you can start at the beginning by following the links:

Do it! Specificaly 36 from red bluff to eureka, then 299 back from Erueka toward Redding. with an opportunity to divert to 96 and head for Happy Camp.

A remarkable set of achievements in any industry much less print magazines. I was surprised at the insightful articles that kept coming from it. Teen Vogue of all places.

And now the magazine is being gutted by layoffs. Its generally assumed because they got to be a little too good.
Elaine Welteroth, former editor-in-chief of Teen Vogue and youngest editor of Condé Nast ever, and the 2nd African American to hold this position, changed Teen Vogue to be more politically conscious.

Traffic to TeenVogue.com: 2.7M to 9.2M visitors a year, print subscriptions jumped 535%
Ex-Teen Vogue editor Elaine Welteroth: ‘The headlines implied I was a token black hire’
Welteroth was just 29 when Anna Wintour made her editor-in-chief. Months later, the magazine shut down. What did she do next?

I gotta get my #TTRPG Nerd Herd on stats for this weapon. and at least one class that takes advantage of its unique properties (Hoagie Paladin? Sandwich Ninja?)
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.

*road.

*sigh* someday we will be able to edit posts
Things like ar why I often say that When I am In Charge - copyright will only last for a *brief* pre-defined period before the works enter public domain. Same for patents. and anything created that is funded by tax dollars acquires a GPL-like license.

*brief == 10 years or less.
Libraries matter. Access matters.

After years of legal battles, the Internet Archive is still here—and still fighting for a world where everyone can read, learn, and remember.

@arstechnica.com tells the story: arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...
Internet Archive’s legal fights are over, but its founder mourns what was lost
“We survived, but it wiped out the library,” Internet Archive’s founder says.

this is exactly true. the only clock I have to actually change.
My stove knows.
So does my microwave.
Every other clock I have is gaslighting me.
