The thing about writing TTRPG scenarios is that no matter how long you think it will take it always takes longer.

Look at the bravery of these folks.

And then look at the cowardice of the thugs. Watch them flee once they've been inconvenienced.

These are petulant children cosplaying as "warriors".

Resistance comes in many forms - making things inconvenient for the fascists is often incredibly effective.

… so, still Qatari fighter pilots running loose in the US with access to fighter jets?

The Pleasure Vice Principle (he/him/his) @hannibaltabu.bsky.social · 11h

It’s not even noon & I’m finding out there gonna be Qatari F-15s in Idaho, plus the Palisades Fire arsonist used ChatGPT to envision what it’d be like.

This … ain’t good.

Says here the America First crowd are building a Qatari Air Force facility in Idaho with F-15s.

I’ve loved F-15s since I was a kid. This would give rapid strike capacity to foreign nationals over most of the country.

What could go wrong?

Hegseth announces Qatar will build air force facility at U.S. base in Idaho

The move is a sign of increasingly close ties between the U.S. and Qatar.

I kind of love this take.

It’s almost impossible to publish as things are, but I love it.

The Nazi-sympathetic movement in the U.S. that tried to keep the U.S. from joining the allies was literally called America First.

It’s only because of public response to Pearl Harbor that they couldn’t keep up the BS lie that they only were interested in peace.

A group of KKK members in white robes march in a large parade with a banner that says America first

An America first committee speech shows a large seated audience and a banner that says SAVE OUR SONS
NO CONVOYS
NO WAR
NO DEATH FOR AMERICAN BOYS

Unclench your jaw.

Relax your brow.

Go get a drink of water.

See if you've taken your meds

Eat something.

Doesn't matter what you look like right now, i think you look amazing.

Because you do.

You're a wonderful person.

And have this. 🫂🖤 you did great today. You made it through

You’re thinking of lamé.

A duvet is a French word people use as a pleasant greeting when they meet someone.

Haze! @luxelifehaze.bsky.social · 1d

You’re thinking of croquet.

A duvet is a shiny fabric that contains golden threads. It’s typically used for evening gowns and costumes because of its luxurious and glamorous look

You’re thinking of Poussey.

A duvet is the sport that involves hitting wooden, plastic, or composite balls with a mallet through hoops
