Hospitalization is already brutal enough. Please help Jack keep his head above water while he recovers and heals from an terrible hospital stay.

Still not able to work. Appendicitis turned into complications with a month long hospital stay. Lost a lot of time, a lot of income, struggling to stay afloat. Help if you can.

Trans women has been welcomed at the Women's Institute since the 1970s and one member is in her 80's and has been a member for decades. This is pure bigotry pushed by legal threats backed monetarily by JK Rowling.

I look at myself and yeah, I don't know how I get through life either. As awkward as I am, it's way worse on the inside.

Yeah, I mean, the 2024 Monster Manual is pretty damn good. Produced by what has become a crap company with plans to become even worse, but if this was all I knew of WotC I'd be very impressed. #DnD

Yeah, the rise of the Right isn't an accident. It's AstroTurf, because the Right will always serve those in power.
The real question is not "Why is Bluesky so left-coded," the real question is "Why can't the right exist in a social media environment without algorithmic assistance, where people can ignore them"

I'm thankful that I get health coverage through my job as pastor.

OTOH the website for accessing therapy hasn't loaded for the last two days. And I get unlimited nutritionist appointments, but limited therapy appointments covered.

So I ended up venting to my nutritionist. #pastorsky

I had fun at PAX Unplugged! I played over 20 hours worth of games and went out to the local taverns every night. How did I do it all? That’s proprietary, but you can instead read all about the games I played

Cannot stress the importance of a ttrpg cover beyond mere aesthetics.

- It will inspire you each time you look at it.
- It gives your supporters a taste of the game to come.
- It’s essential for marketing.
- It pays artists struggling against AI.

On this day in 1955 Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat. For 381 days people boycotted the buses. They walked, carpooled and organized every single day until segregation cracked. Nothing will change today without that same resolve. Freedom isn’t granted, it's taken one step at a time. #Resist

I was pretty sure Pantoja would take it next weekend, but then I realized he's 35 years old. That's old for a combat athlete, especially in the lighter weight classes.

It very well might be Van's night. Definitely extra cool if so, as he's a refugee. #MMA

Sex trafficking on Meta platforms was both difficult to report and widely tolerated. Instagram’s former head of safety testified that when she joined Meta in 2020 she was shocked to learn the company had a “17x” strike policy for accounts that engaged in the “trafficking of humans for sex.”
