I've considered starting a Patreon to put out stuff for TTRPGs. Here's my question to anyone who might be interested, what would be the thing that would be interesting to you in a Patreon? Magical items? Characters? One-shot adventures? Monsters? Interesting home brew rules?

Tar and feather.
"what are we going to do with 20,000 ICE agents if we abolish ice" well to start with I think we should all literally spit on them in public for the rest of their lives

The same people who spent yesterday, and the past five years, insisting a Black police officer who shot an insurrectionist breaking into the Capitol should be prosecuted are today bending over backwards to defend an ICE agent who shot a woman in her car in cold blood.

Scum.

Here’s some things that can be done by a party out of power

- file impeachment articles every day in the House

- withhold unanimous consent in the senate and filibuster every nominee

- be everywhere with comms saying this is lawless and impeachable

Trump has long despised the UN. He’s now withdrawing the US from over 65 UN treaties.

The list of democratic offenses and disregards is substantial. Now this?

Get off your ass, Congress, and stop him. Trump is rewriting our country by burning its principles.

Every day you don’t—you support it.

With everything going on in the world right now. I don't know why I'm doing this, but I'm trying to hold myself accountable in little ways putting pressure on myself to keep up with my art learning. Here's two sketches.

The guy fled the scene. What more do you need to know?
This is Trump’s masked ICE agent, who shot the woman in Minneapolis, fleeing from the scene about 90 seconds after the shooting.

You can hear a witness yelling, “Don’t let the murderer leave.”

A protester was arrested mid-interview.
That’s not a mistake — that’s the message.
When dissent gets handcuffed on camera, democracy isn’t “threatened.”
It’s already dead.

I live in the reddest part of a blood red state and this is absolutely correct. Even the most cringe MAGA person in the most cancerous local political Facebook group supports these things.
Data centers will be THE political issue in many key races around the country over the next several years & Dems need to get all over it because this is a grass roots issue that transcends party. Want to get back in the game in rural America? This is how. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...
The data center rebellion is here, and it’s reshaping the political landscape
Backlash over the proliferation of data centers has entered the national political conversation and could affect voters of all political persuasions in this year’s midterm elections.

Cashier: Did you find everything ok?

Me: I spent 20 minutes of my life that I'll never get back looking for a pasta item that for some reason was in the "Exotic" section. This store makes me so anxious I have to drown it out with music just to come shop here.

Cashier: What?

Me: Yep, all good.

Four generations of my family have served our country. Service is in my blood. The President wouldn’t know anything about that.

France at the UN Security Council:

"The military operation which led to the capture of Nicolas Maduro runs counter to the principle of peaceful dispute resolution and the principle of non use of force. Violations of the UN Charter... chips away at the very foundation of the international order."

Cashier: "How are you today?"

Me: "Each day is a new adventure in hell. Living is both a blessing and a curse."

Cashier: "What?"

Me: "I'm fine. How are you?"

The real people behind all of this are the execs at ExxonMobil and other oil companies. Who have probably had crews waiting on the border waiting for the news so they can sweep in and start overhauling oil pipelines as we speak.

The same things being said about Maduro today were said about Sadam Hussein during the second war in Iraq, that certainly turned out well 🙄. The lust for oil was a bit more hush-hush then though.

Can't help but feel like this is one of the reasons why the Constitution says If a dude in office does an insurrection, don't let that motherfucker hold office again

Bc clearly they cannot be trusted with power & control over the levers of government, & they do not care about democratic constraints

Day 1 of the art adventure is done. I can't draw from imagination very well, but I am somewhat proud of my reference drawings. Meet warped and mutated Scooby and Bugs, and a deformed fox.

@bauzilla.bsky.social not sure you'll ever see this, but I started learning to today at the ripe age of 34, and my reference drawings have been Bugs Bunny and it's so exciting to see my favorite rabbit come out of my squiggles.

My new journey in 2026. First time drawing a human figure, and yeah, it certainly shows.

Trump would never. Mamdani's message to just critics.

“I promise you this. If you are a New Yorker, I am your mayor. Regardless of whether we agree, I will protect you, I will celebrate with you, mourn alongside you, and never, not for a second, hide from you.”
