Howdy, I'm Elliot, a hobbyist TTRPG designer!
I'm primarily into asynchronous games, like PbE/PbP and solo/duet journaling, esp. horror
In 2024, I ran my PbE megagame, The Sordid Affairs of Brookhaven Parish (omega-mega.games/games/TSAOBP...)
I'm currently working on my next PbE MG, Quarter Mile

Okay, did not have East Isles as the “put them against the wall” neighborhood, but I’m here for it
Was talking to a random nice older woman from East Isles last night and ICE came up. She then detailed, totally free of irony, her plan for reforming US government, which included the simultaneous mass execution of every leading member of the Trump administration, many of whom were mentioned by name

The line of cars to get in the overflow lot at 6:30 was 3 blocks long. Once we divided into precincts, there was 40ish for mine, 18 elected delegates and 9 alternates. I’m a vice chair and a delegate now, and my chair is a huge nerd who wants to host precinct board game nights!

Agent: These guys were all threatening us yesterday with hand guns.

Agent: *Hand* guns, like threatening to shoot us.

A: Pulling them out, trying to engage us.
R: Pulling out literal guns?
A: No. Making... assuming we were going to do something.

![U.S. Senator Tina Smith Endorses Peggy Flanagan for U.S. Senate
Progressive Champion Tina Smith Chooses Flanagan to Carry Her Fight Forward Representing Minnesota
image.jpeg
ST. LOUIS PARK, MN [02/02/26]—Today, Peggy Flanagan’s campaign announced the endorsement of U.S. Senator Tina Smith (D-Minn.), a proven progressive leader, a champion for working people, and a senator who has fiercely stood up to Donald Trump and Republicans.
With both Senator Smith and Al Franken’s endorsements, Flanagan has now earned the support of the senators who have represented Minnesota in this seat for the past 17 years. Senator Smith’s support adds significant momentum to Flanagan’s campaign as Minnesota voters head to precinct caucuses tomorrow and begin the process of choosing the Democratic nominee for her open Senate seat.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:o6b6p7w54st6r7ze6nmjv4it/bafkreibalvhjksvqmp4y4sqqmpnvvqzl2mtafsttgoq4zwepe325qtzq3u@jpeg)

Are you caucusing Tuesday? I am. I hate crowds & chaos; I usually trust friends & neighbors to do this work. But Amy Klobuchar has been tone deaf & absent during the ICE occupation of MN. We deserve a better option for governor. It's time for Amy & Tim to take a seat. I'm caucusing to say so.
If you are caucusing on Tuesday, make sure you send a message to Amy Klobucbar that she has not been meeting the moment by voting uncommitted or writing in someone. Personally I’m writing in @zaynabmmohamed.bsky.social who has shown up a million times more than Amy and would do a way better job.

This is how Tom Homan reacts to losing a court case to free a medically fragile 5-year-old who was used as bait to lure his dad so they could be imprisoned in a measles factory. Fuck any de-escalation stories that come out.
Columbia Heights (Liam's school district) cancelled school today because of a credible bomb threat at Liam's elementary and multiple ICE vehicles parking in the high school staff parking lot at 6:15am.

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.
Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.
