Truly wonderful AP that just keeps getting better and better!
I'll keep saying it: our campaign of Public Access on @thebadspot.bsky.social is the best AP you're probably not watching. Absolute top-tier RP, a great way to learn the game, and damn entertaining.

If you're watching and enjoying, *please help spread the word word*

Chocolate pecan pie for tomorrow.

First time with this recipe but went smooth as is usual for a Maida Heatter recipe.

So AP Swap was a great idea if I do say so myself.

Got to hear 3 shows I'd never heard before, got introduced to 2 new games and generally just had a great time.

Everyone got rated and reviewed. Just a good shake all round.

Shall I do it again tomorrow?
Anyone wanna AP swap?

The discourse has got me thinking.

Someone send me their AP and I’ll watch it right now. In return, I’ll send you one of mine and you reciprocate.

Bonus if we don’t really know each other.

No D&D or similar. It’s just not my bag, soz.

Threw caution to the wind today and rode my bike around the war ravaged hellscape that is Portland Oregon. I must have gotten lucky as my most perilous encounter was an aggressive pass by a motorist on NE 7th

Just think of the crush of future applicants to Columbia who have watched their actions and said to themselves "there's no better place in the world to learn bootlicking!"

And with the post season talkback recorded, that is a wrap on The Between.

So sad it’s over, but god damn am I glad to have shared a table with these magnificent bastards.

Happy Mothership Day 👽

Seven years ago today the Mothership Player’s Survival Guide debuted at Origins 2018! We only printed 50 copies and made a single post advertising it on G+ (rip). We sold out that weekend and it’s been an insane ride ever since. Thank you.

When we throw up our hands and say none of it matters, we're doing the fascists’ work for them. They don't need to hide their corruption if they can convince us it's pointless to look. They don't need to silence truth-tellers if we've already decided truth is meaningless.

As we respect the annual Memorial Day Weekend closure, it's a good time to reflect on what access to the cemetery means, because we should not take it for granted.
Opinion: It's time to reflect on River View Cemetery access
The City of Portland can no longer afford to sit back and rely on this generous gift from a private entity.

please take a sec to take this survey. in trimet’s initial outreach, requests for bus lanes outnumbered concerns about congestion by about 15 responses, 45 to 30. your engagement is making a difference and it does not take a lot of people for your opinion to register

I noticed that Riverview Cemetery has some new signage going up. These are being placed in all the places where the old (circle/cross) no bikes signs were. I hope it's not an indication of potential closure. Have you heard anything?
