Hi, I'm Joseph! I'm a huge fan of TTRPGs, especially the Eberron setting and Foundry VTT. I also post about video games and left-wing politics.

Got around to watching "Honey Don't". Gotta say, I actually really liked it but I get why the vast majority did not.

I will say the files clarify why AI is so appealing to the rich and powerful; a machine that can compete with a college sophomore is really impressive to guys who read and write like they're 12!

I have to admit the Trill Biology Facts episodes of DS9 don't really do it for me. The writers are clearly trying, they're a genuinely weird species of alien, but somewhere between the performance and the writing they end up only OK.

Another thing this email trove has convinced me of is that NYT has been actively and consciously helping Trump since 2015. It wasn't just casual sexism, double standards, and political reporting Kayfabe. They were doing catch and kill

The far right is obsessed with Lord of the Rings and Musk keeps posting about "hobbits" because modern scientific racism owes more to fantasy worlds and gaming systems than genetic science, and they see both as effective mediums for right-wing propaganda www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

Continuing DS9 watch. The framing in Maquis Part 2 of Earth being a post scarcity paradise but the frontier not meeting those standards reminds me a lot of Lancer.

I think Draw Steel needs better ranged weapon support, there's no way to build a character focused on trickshots like Hawkeye or Green Arrow. Literally no class has ranged weapon abilities available at every level. I'm not sure if you need a new class for this, just more abilities & subclasses

Watched Star Wars IV tonight and I gotta say it holds up. Curious what the original cut experience will be like next year.

Since JourneyMon is now fully funded (!) and approaching our first stretch goal, I wanted to take a moment to celebrate the folks who have put a ton of effort into making the game as great as it can be! I swear I didn't plan it, but everyone showcases here is queer too 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️, so that's fun!

New incredible detail here: ICE says a match in its facial recognition app Mobile Fortify is a "definitive" determination of a person's status, and that this overrides birth certificates. This is an app ICE is using in the field to scan people
