If you're doing any sort of Medieval #WorldBuilding, for game design or novels or whatever, & you haven't seen Ruth Goodman's "Tudor Monastery Farm", you're in for a treat. I highly recommend her & the crew, & not just for this particular series. #ttrpg #history

I know it's a tad early but I know those bitches with the buckets will be out soon. Don't gove them a penny. The volunteers may not know but the salvation army is no ally and actively combative and harmful to many queer minorities especially during the holiday season

More people have died in ICE custody in last 9 months than in the entire prior 4 years.
We hear of a few, but most barely make the news.
Cases like Randall Alberto Gamboa Esquivel.
He was in perfect health when ICE detained him.
He disappeared in June & by August was in a vegetative state.

Crowdfunding goals are the biggest lies ever told - It is so strongly encouraged to drastically undershoot in order to keep up hype and so you can make that "Fully funded in x" as low as possible.
This is a systemic issue in crowdfunding - not singularly on Equinox.

If companies must tell €2 million fibs, under guidance by platforms, to make crowdfunding work.

The Republican Shutdown has a devastating impact on our federal workforce, with nearly 750,000 workers affected.
This means missed paychecks for working families and more uncertainty and chaos for this country. Trump and Republicans must end this shutdown.

Here's one thing you can do: a disney+ subscription is around 16 dollars.
Go on Patreon/Kofi, find your top 16 creators/youtubers with less than a million subscribers and give them each $1 a month.

I think it's becoming clear that if you like indie creators, you're going to need to support them any way you can. And that doesn't mean money, just spreading worth of mouth can be powerful as well.
