I write articles, reviews, and the occasional D&D adventure. One of the things I wrote even won an award. Also plenty of miniature painting, dice making, and cosplay.
Okay, I’m gonna spend the weekend having fun at a tabletop game convention - no more doomscrolling until Monday!

hi, cis folks!

if you’re in kansas, please call & tell your state senator & representative that revoking trans people’s documents & setting bounties on trans folks using the bathroom is fucked. tell them to support a veto—yes, even republicans.

contact info: reps.fyi

find talking points in the QP
The Kansas State Legislature just passed SB 244, an extremist bill which cruelly targets trans people and their access to restrooms and accurate identity documents.

Kansans: The time to act is NOW. 🚨

Contact your legislators and urge them to SUPPORT the veto of SB 244: tinyurl.com/2m77hbkk

Dutch site IDs ICE agents via public data

“ICE aren’t actually fearful of their safety…What they’re fearful of is not being invited to baseball games or not being invited to the pub with their friends. Community exclusion – that’s what they’re fearful of”

Okay, finished my first playthrough of Dispatch. All in all, a very fun game with great characters, voice acting, and animation. Now to play it again but make entirely different decisions.

This is starting to get like universal basic income where every single objective study shows the same result but the people who don't like that result go "uh, well there's just really no way to know"

One last "Same mini, years apart" post (until I repaint more of my older minis, but I should probably get through my backlog of new stuff first)

I really want people to think about this. After all the insane lawsuits, all the threats, all the bullshit weve seen from this admin and the targets who kneeled in fear, an average Joe called the president a Pedophile protector to his face and didn't get touched. That's the Power of a union.

So anyway job hunt remains a killer. I've got 4 years game industry QA experience, mostly streaming focused but also hardware and software too. I've also got a BFA with an emphasis in illustration. In California but open to move. If anyone knows someone hiring feel free to shoot me a dm.

This is also the way to make change if for example there’s an issue you want to see prioritized (eg: disability, Covid, Long Covid, etc.)

I see a lot of pleading for the left to take up these issues but much less willingness to get involved with left organizing to make it happen.
In NYC, these 2 orgs are where the electoral action is at, disproportionately determining how NYC's electorally organized Left moves.

Didn't like how a particular decision went (e.g., how DSA landed on NY-08; how WFP landed on the governor's nomination)? Join and try to shape its future decisions.
Friends in NYC, if you care about electoral politics, please join either the @nywfp.bsky.social or the @socialists.nyc -- or both. These are incredibly critical institutions right now for turning this massive backlash against the right turn into a true turning point that can actually CHANGE things.

We’re living in the fascist police state Alex Jones told everyone liberals would build and he’s deepthroating the boot while the sheeple he criticized risk everything

This is some bullshit. Never enter any contest like this.
Venerable magazine Harper's Bazaar is running its short story contest again, with the winner receiving "the chance" of publication in the magazine. Just one catch: per the wording of the guidelines, _just by entering_ you transfer copyright ownership of your story to Harper's parent, Hearst. 1/3
