If you see me at MagFest, don't say hello. Don't make eye contact and slowly leave the area. The doppelganger is carnivorous and hunts by tracking movement.

There's a lot I want to accomplish this year but, realistically, most of that is out of my control like getting the YouTube 100k plaque or medaling in HEMA. Really, I just want to put kindness into the world. Everything else is in service of that end.

Somewhat related but you should all go watch this video by @rickihirsch.bsky.social on impostor syndrome, setting expectations, and "making it" because it's really good and something I think every creative has experienced.

Globally famous and unsure if he was actually that good, Stephen King published under the name Richard Bachman to see if his success was a fluke. What did he find out and what can we learn?
New video is up about the dynamics of luck, skill and getting struck by lighting.

If you are anxious and sad about the state of the world, that's fine, and there are plenty of strategies for dealing with that. But I think you already know that drive-by online dooming isn't a strategy. It's selfish and adolescent. It's a contagion that only spreads the worst of you, not the best.

"I'm calling to demand the immediate dismantling of ICE for the murder of a woman in Minneapolis today and the impeachment of the President for his support of that murder" is the easiest call to my senators and representative I've ever made

Finished Rose Madder. I can see why some readers seem to rate it as one of King's best or worst books. Norman is one of the most effective villains I've read in a hot minute. It also reminded me a little of Tehanu where supernatural elements deflect from the very real horror of being a woman.

I spent an excessive number of years moderating a gaming forum and I learned a great deal about community spaces and cultivation, whether I wanted to or not. I have critical advice for anyone who runs a game store or gaming convention. Please share this thread with people who run those things.

In another time, I would have been a revered priestess. Kings and queens would cross deserts and plains for my council. Their kingdoms would rise and fall on my word.
Today, I have 30 emails in my inbox.

Dreamt I was out for dinner with folks. The server (who was MJF) stopped and dramatically had this exchange with someone at the table":
"What path do you walk"
"The alpha"
"I meant more like, what is your gender."
We need to normalize asking people what path they walk.
