My employer sent us a document that promises to make sure we take all of our vacation time, get enough rest, get paid enough, use our benefits, and let them know if we need more.
My other employer offered to babysit for our disabled kids so we can get some alone time.
Very thankful. Sadly rare.
Id rather go for work-life balance than be "successful" by the metrics society tells me are important.
Id rather take the sick days to get my bodymind back on track (and thank heaven for sick leave).
Id rather be perceived as middling or unmemorable.
Id much rather have a lifetime of happiness.
While work-life balance may give you a sense of happiness and fulfillment, it isn’t always realistic, says Walmart executive vice president and chief people officer Donna Morris.

Next year, the Dora the Explorer balloon in the #Thanksgiving parade will be followed by a ICE balloon, but the handlers will be wearing inflatable frog costumes.

ICE is trapping people in abusive relationships, and more generally, making immigrants afraid to assert legal rights and ask for help that they are very much entitled to. (Noting that this is not new, for example there's history of agricultural workers threatened with la migra for speaking out!)
How ICE’s Crackdown Hurts Immigrant Victims of Domestic Violence
Increased enforcement and Trump’s policy changes are causing some people to remain in abusive relationships rather than risk deportation, experts say.

I was honored to be interviewed on the TTRPG Rising Tide podcast about accessibility in worldbuilding. Our goal is to make accessibility ubiquitous in TTRPG, so talking to creators about it was a great opportunity.
Dale Critchley Talks Building Accessibility Into Your TTRPG Worlds
Our host, Mat of Role Play Chat, talks with Dale Critchley of Wyrmworks Publishing about going beyond creating accessible TTRPG systems and why it's important to make the worlds we play in accessible…

We built an inclusive NPC name generator for #Free5e but if you don't have it & your players ask you, "What's the NPC's name?" Just say, "I don't know. They didn't tell me." #ttrpg

While editing #Free5e to account for nonverbal characters, I had a fun idea: a sentient Bag of Holding that uses its straps for signing.

Our fridge is broken, repair appointment tomorrow. Sounds like a machine gun, like living in a war zone. Based on info from #POTUS, I can only assume that this is what Portland sounds like.

We need a different nickname for Firefly fans, because #browncoats is becoming important for a reason we didn't think we'd have to worry about again.
