Fossil phrases like 'hoist by his own petard' are always fun to collect. I just realized that 'even a stopped clock is right twice a day' has become a fossil phrase during my lifetime. I know plenty of kids who have never seen a clock that works that way, except maybe in a movie.

Holy cats, tonight's #StarTrekAdventures session at @rbccvt.org #RPGNight was so Trek and so amazing. My ship's crew are in so much trouble - but not nearly as much as they think they are! I did some threat spends that really hit home and cranked up the tension. So many Traits in play...

Trying my new Ohuhu #coloring markers. Most of them I just pulled out at random and then found a place to use them, no picking or planning. #art #meditation against #anxiety.

Don't forget: Sunday is the day RBCC switches to booked time! You can still drop in during any of our groups and clubs, but otherwise, book time at the Center here: calendly.com/rainbowbridg...

You can also book time for a group, or to just chat with a volunteer online or on the phone!

Folks really really dislike when Black women have an opinion about things. That’s what seven years of having a large social platform has taught me. That and also watching how folks treat other Black gender minorities out here.

My #StarTrekAdventures #ttrpg game at @rbccvt.org #RPGNight is back in business after a few weeks off, now exploring a strange alien ship filled with hostile plant life. Adapting to #OpenTable is extra tricky when the CO and XO keep being absent; our chief tactical officer is now acting captain!

We love our accessibility ramp! But we don't have an electric door opener. No problem! We've installed a doorbell at the top of the ramp, you can ring for assistance with the door and any other mobility help you need. Equal accessibility to the Center (and everywhere else!) is important to us! 👨‍🦽👩‍🦼
