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.

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

Cc: ADMINISTRATIVE JUDGES: +29 others
Good morning, Andrea. Apparently no one in leadership is willing to ring the alarm bells so it falls upon one of us to do it. The tactics you are employing and actions you have taken in lock step with this new administration are illegal and unconstitutional. You are not fit to be our chair much less hold a license to practice law. I will not participate in attempts to target private citizens and colleagues through the recent illegal executive orders. I swore an oath to the Constitution of the United States, and the Commission serves the people of the United States. If you want to continue following the illegal and unethical orders of our president and the unelected leader of "doge" that's on you.
As I said in the email I sent to my colleagues yesterday (which was mysteriously deleted not only from their inboxes, but from my sent box), I know I take a great personal risk in sending out this message. But, at the end of the day, my actions align with what the EEOC was charged with doing under the law. I will not compromise my ethics and my duty to uphold the law. I will not cower to bullying and intimidation.
If upon reflection, you feel like now would be a good time to take a vacation and resign from your position, please 'reply all' to this email and put "I'd Like to Occupy Mars!" in the subject line. We will take this as notification that you are resigning your position as acting chair.
P.S. Happy Black History Month!
Sincerely, [redacted]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:hwmmdl5nok26w3zhmg2d3fvt/bafkreidlbkziqjzlfrzdecxngor36vw35f6f6sr3jld2yicmku7g623poe@jpeg)

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.

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.
