look I know being an engaged citizen IS the work of democracy but it is also the work of elected officials not to create situations where everyone has to be mobilized all the time to prevent them from allowing some kind of Dickensian horror on a Sunday night while you're in between loads of laundry

One of the most important provisions of the ACA was eliminating pre-existing conditions exclusions from insurance plans.

Folks need to be reminded that if the ACA goes away, so does that provision.

if you are a person living outside NYC going “why should I care who the NYC mayor is???” that’s totally fair, no hate to you! here is a very good comment from u/current_poster that helps explain why it matters, and why Mamdani’s win is notable

It's not in this article but the government asserts that the sandwich was thrown at "point blank range", which implies subway sandwiches have defined effective weapon ranges of varying lethality, and I would like to see the government's chart of these ranges.

@plusoneexp.bsky.social had the brilliant idea to format the book as a GM screen so you stand it up with art facing the players & text facing the ref. I'm glad I trusted his instincts cuz it's such a simple change with a huge impact.

+ it allowed us to print @robbiaburns.bsky.social full page art!

This was SO DELIGHTFUL. Such a fun game, such a fun pod! Had an absolute blast with @jeffstormer.gobirds.online playing this RPG which somehow linked my improv, sports, and podcasting backgrounds seamlessly. Give it a listen!

only 12 hours left to back this little scene-building game about cryptids and 90’s drive-time call-in radio shows. easy to lean, fun to play, a low bar of entry for anyone looking to hone their improv skills, and SICK CRYPTID ART.

back it here! ttrpg.link/cryptidshow
