I've written a one page patch for the new D&D Players Manual where I solve the problem of people's campaigns grinding to a halt because they can't schedule a game.

PDF is the link. Print it out. Stick it in your manuals. May work for other games too. #ttrpg #dnd

Cool so what happens if GOP attach a national abortion ban to a CR? You'll vote for that too?

🚮
My YES vote is *not* an endorsement of this deeply flawed CR.

My YES vote is 💯 about refusing to shut our government down.

I refuse to punish working families and plunge millions of Americans into chaos.
 
I will never, ever, ever, ever, ever vote to shut our government down.

One sign that I’m firmly in middle age is that, while I have loved Cat Steven’s my entire life, I now unabashedly love Peace Train, the one song of his I used to hate.

We made it to 8 years!
No amount of reboots, variant covers, pandemics, fascists, bankruptcies, wildfires, deaths, blizzards, floods, and break-ups can keep us down for long!
Come celebrate with us on Saturday!

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges.

This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

One of the highlights of last year for me was reading The Power Broker. I liked it so much, in fact, I’m reading volume one of Caro’s Johnson bio this year. Just started today and it’s already great

Thinking a lot these days about compassion, and how every time I read a news story that horrifies me, what’s missing from the individuals involved is compassion. So here is a little wisdom from Lao Tzu (courtesy of Ursula K Le Guin’s translation)

Thanks to the @mta.info I walked into my first period class almost 20 minutes late—not a great start to the new semester. Ah, well. Nothing to do but don a bow tie, grin, and carry on

I’ve been a teacher for 23 years. I hate that, as a staff, we have to prepare to protect our students from the possibility of school shooters. But I am terrified that we now need to meet to discuss how to protect our students from the federal government.

A lot of people only want to identify Nazis after they've done the mass murdering bit. The thing is, you need to identify them and deal with them earlier to stop that.

I don’t care if you’re a relative, a fantasy novelist, or an elected official, transphobia is manufactured outrage and transphobe are trash.

None of America’s problems are cause by trans people. None.

But a LOT are caused by bigots.

When a single billionaire can accumulate more money in 10 seconds than their employees make in one year, while workers struggle to meet the basic cost of rent and medicine, then yes, every billionaire really is a policy failure.
