We're still looking for DC / MD / VA game designers to include in our catalog of locally-designed games. Card games, TTRPGs, board games, journaling games -- if our local retail shops can sell it, we want to promote it!

My son went eighteen months without a job.
Sent over two thousand applications.
Most didn't reply (or possibly even exist).
Some turned him down before he'd even pressed the button.
He got ONE interview.
It was utterly soul-destroying.
And we wonder why our youth have a depression problem 🤦♀️

Which does rather underline the point.

(Also, if whoever's running that Reuters account is hiding dissonant replies, they're about to have their work cut out for them...!!)

Oh, SO MUCH THIS. Was an early adopter of all of this, and it was magical. The first days of blogging and social media were full of so much hope. Love and information, passion for our hobbies and interests, openly shared, and friends made all over the world.

In other news, we've been a week without heating (thermostat broke), and without the gas fire (ignition also broke).
BUT!! Hallelujah, the fixit man comes this afternoon, so no more huddling round the little electrical plug-in, like homeless people in TV shows huddle round an oil drum fire.
