Let's make a new term as a modern replacement for "Orwellian." We can call it "Palantirian" after the company Palantir and most likely behind the proposed rules for future visitors to the US.

Our DnD game of Storm King's Thunder is almost done.
HOWEVER, December is doing its magic, at least with one player. He knows our schedule, yet every week it's the same thing: he and his husband made other plans.
Either I'm not doing a good enough job as a DM, or he doesn't care anymore.

This is Jacob Smith who I was lucky enough to collaborate with on the Reframe Road Safety campaign.
This campaign called out those who design, approve & implement inequitable transportation systems that disproportionately affect youth + BIPOC communities. 1/

So, I logged back into TwiXr after almost a week away from it. Now I have a "label" on my account, though the reasons are as vague as everything else they state. I have no idea what it's for, and they won't let me see it on my account.
How am I supposed to correct things if I don't know what I did?

I grew up watching him, as well as Marvin Zindler. And then Dave's barely withheld mirth (yet still respectful) as he said, "Thank ya, Marvin." 😁
Here's a good send-off he did for Marvin:

Okay, so I've voted, for Salinas, at-large position 4, in the Houston run-off election.
Anyone else?

When the engineers became pro-roundabout, the planners became roundabout skeptics or flat-out anti-roundabout.

Just to let my local community/Houston friends I know who are on Threads, I won't be posting there ever again and will begin to shut off the tabs I have open for y'all's accounts. No sense wasting tab space if I can't use a service.

Every time one of the lower courts finds this regime in contempt, I would like to see them put the lawyers in that court in the local or court jail. Have a spine!
The GOP loves to tell us they are for the "rule of law". Okay, let's demonstrate that to them.

Maybe once I'm on SS and can better supplement my 'income' (not going into detail about that source), I'll invest in a decent cycling camera (and maybe a dashcam for the car).

It's a great video, and not that long. What's fun is trying to figure out where you are at fast speed. I don't know the trails on that side of town, but have either driven the roads or used Street View when looking up things and could tell where the group was at most of the time.
