I have three cats (Izzie, Boo and Pepper) and I stream Dwarf Fortress and Baldur's Gate on Twitch at www.twitch.tv/policyofmadness
Is it #Caturday already? Here's Pepper at the shelter, telling me she wanted to be my kitten.

It's #FortressFriday

In Relicbreach, we conquered the elves, and breached many obsidian vaults in the caverns. Nothing special was discovered. Then we attacked a different goblin civilization. The rhythm of life became raid-raid-raid-defend from siege-raid-raid. Very monotonous.

The Sensitive Waxes are an elven civilization. They brought us exotic animals and fruits for trade for more than 30 years, but after we conquered the goblins of the Evil of Gifting, they decided to go to war with us, but didn't bother to tell us first.

We created four militia squads and they took turns drilling into the pits of the Evil of Gifting, a local goblin civilization. One pair of squads would attack two sites, then when they returned the other pair of squads would raid the same two sites.

Welcome to #FortressFriday

Not much happened this week! We finished our obsidian towers, and then started to say hello to our neighbors. Our neighbors considerately returned the greeting, and were subsequently baptized into the Holy Church of Armok.

Local fire department giving a Christmas show. They do this every year, and travel the community in the weeks leading up to Christmas.

After giving up (temporarily!) on the caverns, we decided to build an above-ground tower complex. Why? Why ask why. We're building it out of obsidian, of course, and therefore needed large quantities of obsidian.

There are two fatal cases of H5N1 in cats in California. Both cats had been fed raw milk from the recalled lot in the ongoing outbreak associated with Raw Farms. The milk wasn’t tested. But an astute veterinarian tested the cats for flu based on clinical suspicion.

Poor Vabok was a young woodcutter in the fortress of Relicbreach. While chipping mushrooms in the second cavern layer, to provide materials to wall it off, Vabok was crushed and killed by a falling mushroom. Our third loss.

To save the US (and the world) we need to delete companies' fiduciary responsibility toward their shareholders. Make them instead responsible to customers, or the Earth's environment, or anything except the blind and mindless pursuit of money for money's sake.

Imma go ahead and take a stand: Diversity, Equity and Inclusion are not dirty words. And they shouldn't be limited to gender, sexual and racial minorities. We should be inclusive of everyone, including the neurodiverse and mentally diverse, as we are also part of "everyone."

Why are we calling the guy who shot the UHC CEO an "assassin?" We don't call other muderers of citizens by that term. Is it because oligarchs are a special part of the ruling class and not ordinary citizens?

For #Caturday please enjoy Pepper's unusually long, unusually silky soft tail.
