I cannot stress this enough: going and doing something like this is a far better use of your time than arguing online about a primary campaign in a state/district where you don't even live. I'll be doing it again myself soon!
I went and volunteered at a food bank just a few days ago. it was good! there are more effective ways to feed people, sure, but it's still good! we fed lots of people. the org overall fed more. we'd all be better off if even more orgs and more people spent time and money doing stuff like that.

I totally understand people wanting to wait until beastieball is “1.0” to play it. I also don’t usually play early access titles.
My main worry at this point is that the game is already so complete and universally beloved, by the time we call it 1.0 i might accidentally make it worse somehow…

My 5 kids are living in freezing cold without a warm shelter, blankets, or food.
They are shivering now
We urgently need a tent. They are sleeping in the open air, freezing cold.
We are trying to raise $200 for a tent before it's too late.

heads up that bluesky doesnt show posts from other languages by default on your timeline, and its cutting you off from a lot of the community
go to bsky.app/settings/lan... and deselect any language from this setting, or else you might not see any of the new japanese users at all!

IT'S THAT TIME AGAIN
Tips for New Bluesky Users:
1. It is the year 0079 of the Universal Century.
2. A half-century has passed since Earth began moving its burgeoning population into gigantic orbiting space colonies.
3. A new home for mankind, where people are born and raised.
4. And die.

I don’t mean to sound extreme, but I don’t think we should have torture camps for people with criminal records either.
