Ilhan Omar: “In the 4 years when Biden was president, my death threats went to almost zero — now they are back up — so there is a clear correlation between his presidency & the political violence that we see & the political danger that a lot of members of Congress & electeds feel across the country”

A heads up about what I do at work. Huzzah for D and D one shots! Yes, I'm available adult game nights too. Why not hire a professional to run a game for you and your friends?

"The American people believed Donald Trump when he promised on the campaign trail that he would get our nation out of foreign wars, but this morning we awoke to another stark reminder that he is—and has always been—a liar who has never cared about keeping his promises."

I made a Dungeons and Dragons cheat sheet for new players. I want it to be one page. Does it make sense? Better question, if you've never played D and D does it make it something you might try? #dnd #ttrpg #DungeonsandDragons #rpg #fyp

It cracks me up that they used a touchscreen to bring up the big number zero.
“How many companies have moved 100% of their manufacturing to 🇺🇸 since Trump took office?
The answer is pretty clear: Zero.”

New Dungeons and Dragons short is done!
I completed this one quickly, with a 3-day turnaround for 20 pages of mystery-solving madness! I'm going to do more of these; I'm in a good groove. Plus, it's a nice break from the puzzle book.

Doing a new #ttrpg for the Knight Owl Investigation series.
Tonight, over fancy pizza and these date treat things, the players will make a team to investigate some bank fraud and forgery... but then a bank heist happens so team "nerdy bureaucracy fraud specialists" has to solve it!

This is a complicated piece of what is basically propaganda, but it shows the military being ordered to fire on civilians. While the British were found not guilty of what this drawing shows, the optics of it impacted the people's perception.
Perception is why the USA exists right now.

I'm helping someone take a citizenship test. One of the questions she got wrong was "What's the longest river in the USA" and I was thinking ... that I hate trivial questions like this but ... it's the Mississippi right?
Nope, it's ONE MILE shorter than the Missouri.

My 8th grade girls made me a pencil box because mine wasn't cute enough. I love they took my lesson on how the eye sees contrasting colors to make this AND made the pencil "pencil" colored.
One of the things I like about teaching it getting smart people to do smart people stuff, then we all win.
