War gaming get a somewhat deserved reputation for not being inclusive. One towering exception to the stereotype is Battletech. If you love our Trans Brothers and Sisters come join us and punch robots with other robots.

Had a blast playing Raccoon Sky Pirates by @hecticelectron.bsky.social .
Did I go extra on the player swag? Yes
Do I have regrets? No
Each player got
A challenge coin
A flexi raccoon
A digital foil crew card
All in raccoon themed bag
My friend made the cupcakes for that last little something.

@katmabu.bsky.social is a preternaturally powerful communicator and moral voice. @schakowsky.house.gov has been a long-time progressive champion, and stepping down to endorse Ms. Abughazaleh would be a fitting capstone to a brilliant career. #IL09

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.
Wired is dropping paywalls for FOIA-based reporting. Others should follow
As the administration does its best to hide public records from the public, Wired magazine is stepping up to help stem the secrecy

@electdemocrats.bsky.social You email for money. I backed @fetterman.senate.gov and Kamala. He's had the constitution of used toilet paper since the inauguration. If your only strategy is capitulation to Trump on every front followed by begging for money I'm out.
