It appears that this legend owns a little bookstore — and you can order books from him instead of Bezos. Link in next post.
Protester in Minneapolis just before disappearing in gas: "Fuck you! Stop. Damn! I'm 70 years old and I'm fuckin' angry!"

Abolish ICE, prosecute and imprison its leaders, impeach and remove the President from office. This is the only sane reaction to a group of armed men kidnapping and gunning down our neighbors in the street.
As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today.
ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.

Update, @nurdrocks.bsky.social is back home. Just to be really fucking clear, I found out about this when I saw a person I respect and admire, who I look up to as a creative and community member, getting held down by five fascists on the fucking front page of reddit. Fuck ICE. Keep speaking up.
TTRPG friends, Matt, our friend and community member @nurdrocks.bsky.social has been taken by ICE while his back was turned, peacefully protesting. Matt is the founder of Justice Frontline Aid that provides aid & education in the MN community. I've linked the video footage below. Do not stay silent.

They’re governing by ransom, trying to flip Minnesota red by force.
Fox News: "I've gotten my hands that AG Bondi said she sent to Gov. Tim Walz. It is strongly worded. The AG calls for the governor to support the men and women of ICE, to repeal the state's sanctuary policies, and to allow the DOJ to access state voter rolls."

Years ago, when my seasonal allergies kicked in, I took some allergy medicine. But it only got worse. So I took more. For months, no matter how much allergy medicine I took, my allergies got worse.
Then I learned I was allergic to allergy medicine.

So having white man allergies and the flu, I gotta say that this cold coming in is really just hell on my head. Sinuses are swollen, throat is sore and full of drainage, and every once in a while there's a bout of nausea.

I don't know a PARTICULAR reason.
Let me think.
Well, first, I hate bullies. So, fuck transphobes.
Second, all the trans people I've met were awesome. I'm sure some are awful, but I sure haven't met any like that yet.
Third, the whole idea of life is the pursuit of your truth and happiness.

Gail, I love you. You are specifically outspoken about this topic when so many others are quiet. I've wondered, is there some specific reason why this topic in particular is so important to you? Because so many cis people can't be arsed, and you're different.

Playtest Early, Playtest Often — Prismatic Wasteland
To design a game, you have to break a few eggs and discard some rules or completely rewrite them. But you won’t know what to discard and what to rewrite until you feed those eggs to your players.
