House price spiked another 65k last year. This is so ridiculous. Single-home owners gain NOTHING from this, just higher insurance and property taxes.

Getting ready to drop the hammer on some level 2 characters next week in the Cosmere RPG. Sometimes, you really just need to run.

The Stormlight memes are going to be so good if the show really makes it through pre-production hell.

I keep seeing people say “this seems like AI!” About writing in episodes of shows currently airing and I really need them to stop. No it isn’t, you look like an idiot, and if you’re wrong, that is a massive, massive insult to someone who spends their life sweating words.

Ran my first-ever RPG campaign and it rocked.
The CosmereRPG system is intuitive and flexible enough to make it easy and the way spren and bonds work gives you so many easy buttons to push for effective story-telling.
Up next: a short custom campaign and then Stonewalkers

If Sanderson doesn’t give readers a Kal/Syl relationship there are some readers that will absolutely melt down. If he does give them a relationship there are another group of readers, just as large, who will explode. Lose/lose for him.

Murderbot is incredibly well-adapted. It’s got all the heart. All the spectacle. But without being so beholden to book details that it falls flat.

Just restarted The Lady Astronauts by the incredible Mary Robinette Kowal and in the first sentence I already want to go back and listen to every audiobook she’s ever narrated.

Have you been asked, as a federal worker, to do something you don't want to do? But they won't put it in writing?
DON'T DO IT.
If they're going to punish you? MAKE THEM PUT IT IN WRITING. ALL OF IT.

This is fucking hilarious. Like Medicare has a monstrous anti-fraud army. They’re been at it literally decades. They’re good at their job. The idea that these people are going to walk in and find actual fraud is so fucking stupid.
Musk's latest power grab: your Medicare benefits.
Elon - you're looking in the wrong place. Private insurers in Medicare Advantage overcharged taxpayers by at least $83 billion in 2024 alone.

A USAID HR director sent out this email today to staff letting them know he was placed on administrative leave.
“Today, representatives of the Agency's front office and DOGE instructed me to violate the due process of our employees by issuing immediate termination notices to a group of employees.”
