Your regular reminder that what people look like, their hair is like, their clothes are like, is not the point.
We are here to call people to account for what they do and say. That is what matters.
We are here to fight for the dignity of every single human being.
Pursue justice justly.
Because I'm prolific, people often assume I'm very organized & regimented about how I allocate my time to my projects. But that's not true. I can only do the thing I'm interested in at this moment. Learning to flow with that - to spend hours or days on something even if it's less urgent - was key.
I made HelloFresh’s beef flautas, which are strikingly similar to their pork taquitos. www.hellofresh.com/recipes/beef...
WE SHOULDN'T USE POLLING TO TELL US WHAT OUR VALUES ARE, WE SHOULD USE POLLING TO FURTHER ADVANCE THE CAUSES WE VALUE.
For what it's worth, if you or any org you know wants someone to teach creative writing at any level, to come do a talk on the history & culture of tabletop games, to write about tabletop games or autism or mental health, or to chat on a podcast about the above, by all means hit me up!
The flu is a serious illness that causes mortality (kills people). This flu season is, in my view, particularly bad.
In 2026 I want all of the decent people to remember one thing.
You aren’t meant to be this disciplined, this self-sacrificing to survive. The environment is supposed to support good living. We can have that. You are not a failure. That is politics.
That is all.
My nephew is showing me the latest space he made in Minecraft, with a defended cave to rest safely & a high platform to venture out to fight monsters.
May you also have safe space to rest, & well-chosen sites to fight from.
When you hear
comedians disparaging those
(those such as yourself)
who continue to wear masks
do not focus on their words
or on those who snicker,
instead remember
your teacher who asked
“would you do the right thing
even if people laughed at you”,
and know
you can answer: yes.
Catching Covid is not building up anything, just sickness.
Lessons in Magic and Disaster by @charliejane.bsky.social is on sale for $2.99 on Kobo (in Canada, at least); one of my favourites this year, fantastic exploration of mother-daughter relationships, & one of the most interesting magic "systems" (not quite the right word) I've read in a long while
I am burnt out on TV shows doing big ambitious arcs over multiple seasons. I want more Scooby Doo / Columbo style stuff where the plot is identical every episode, the structure rigid as a sonnet, nothing can ultimately change, & the whole art is making something marvellous within those constraints.
imagine if people went to retailers and just took stuff and called it "generative shopping" and then, when the retailers said that's illegal, people said "regular shopping is too expensive so we have disrupted it" and then the retailers were like "OH! Carry on, innovators!"

There are more disabled people who are pretending to be healthy so that you don’t judge us or think us incapable than there are healthy people pretending to be disabled. If you find yourself questioning whether someone is really disabled, you’re doing the work of the oppressor. #disability
It’s been six years since the first reported case of SARSCov2.
It’s never too late to wear a mask.
It’s never too late to clean the air.
Every infection avoided or delayed is a win for long term health.
We can drastically reduce transmission if everyone does their part.
Depends on desired tone. CHARON was maybe sinister from the start. POPS started out light and bubbly before the heel turn.
“It makes me mildly nauseous”
Your overall point is valid. Digging into this specific data, “on any given day” is doing some work. The study looked at food consumption on a single day. On that one day, 12% of studied person-food-days accounted for half of beef consumed. Probably smoothes out some over say a year. Still problem.
oxide is awesome, the product team is awesome, go work with 'em
Thank you for making games that are incredibly high quality in all the ways that matter. They are art. They are thoughtful and thought-provoking. They improve the world for their addition to it. Thank you.
A good reminder for myself and others with ADHD: when you are struggling with it, the first step is ALWAYS forgiving yourself.
So much of why we get trapped and find ourselves unable to act or change is that we get trapped in our shame and guilt spirals...
bottom line up front: because of the operational chaos described in this letter from blue states to the First Circuit Court of Appeals, and because of the extreme bad faith of the Trump Regime, I now believe the safest course of action for many people is to spend SNAP funds recently loaded onto EBT cards immediately. I do not have a high degree of confidence that it is necessary to do so — to be completely transparent with you, I'm offering my best guess, but it is just that, a guess. However, if you rely on SNAP in Wisconsin, I read this letter as meaning you should immediately spend the money on your EBT card, and I have more confidence in this recommendation.
If any of your people rely on SNAP in Wisconsin, look, if it were me, I'd tell them to get to a grocery store _tonight_

Hi.
Stop letting your kids get Covid, I absolutely beg you as a fully grown adult who can’t believe how little of a life I have after 3 years of LC.

100% You got 20 out of 20 questions correct (weighted score: 26.6/26.6). *mask face emoji* EPIDEMIOLOGIST'S NIGHTMARE Perfect score! You're so well-informed, conspiracy theorists actively avoid you at parties.
Try taking the COVID competency exam yourself, and share it around! Great way to bust myths (and the person who wrote it is an epidemiologist, and well-informed, so it really does).

Catching #COVID is causing a cycle of chronic health conditions. After your infection, days, weeks, months or years it can increase the risk of so many things. Including mental health problems. www.ox.ac.uk/news/2022-08...
If you want to resist, wear a mask
If you care about future generations, wear a mask
If you care about your long term health, wear a mask
If you want to fight fascism, wear a mask
Your resistance effort must be inclusive of everyone … and that includes disabled people
Masking is community care
