With SIFF no longer running the Egyptian, I worry the theater will go away and be replaced by techbro condos. The theater closed back in November for a "water leak", my guess is the damage is way more than SIFF wanted to deal with.

He is not wrong. I'm always looking for new authors that have the same style/vibe as my favorites. Is why we go back to our favorite writers over and over again.

Kurt Busiek @kurtbusiek.bsky.social · 7h

Books should not be categorized by genre but by style. Or maybe both.

When I find a writer I like, I want to be able to find more books that read like that, not more books with the same kind of settings and subjects.

Do we get membership cards when we attend? Do we get paid like the Facists are saying? I've never received a paycheck for attending anti-Trump, I feel ripped off :)

Have really enjoyed the first two episodes. That are long (over 4 hours), but with YouTube you can at least pause and take breaks.

Been playing a mashed up mix of this with Monster of the Week, for some crunchier lovin' oldskool players for over a year. Been loving it.

Some GREAT systems for shared narrative, like the backstory based "Keys" instead of Luck, the Paint the Scene prompts, and the Questions and Answers mechanics.

I'm glad there is a cease fire, the hostages were released, and aid is finally getting into Gaza. None of that is a peace deal, it is just the first step on a very long road.

Shawn Marier @smarier.bsky.social · 15h

Had to turn off the news coverage of the "Peace deal" because Trump was just having world leaders say he deserves the Nobel peace prize. If this peace plan actually works (which neither side has actually signed), then maybe. We won't know if it actually worked for years.

NEW — The House and Senate passed a resolution marking Oct. 14 as a “National Day of Remembrance” for Charlie Kirk.

A coalition of Chicago churches and community leaders instead will spend Oct. 14 honoring George Floyd and others whose lives are at risk of erasure.

Trump's talking about hiw he will be going to hell, again. I'm not sure I believe in hell, but if one person deserves it it would be him.
