#Bisexual, 30 something, nerd from Ohio

I love all things pop culture: tv, nerdy movies, playing TTRPG games, video games. If you’re a TTRPG actual player and need a new cast member I’d love to be involved.

An aggressively #Liberal to #leftist space.

Hi y’all! I’m Matt- a #bisexual 30 something nerd from Northeast Ohio.

I’m engaged to the most amazing man in the world. I love all things pop culture in tv, nerdy movies, playing #TTRPG games, #videogames, and I work in higher education.

This is an aggressively #Liberal to #leftist space.

I really want to try to get more active on this site, and use it to more actively and intentionally cultivate my feed towards my interests- nerdy, like ttrpg, actual plays (yes listening? but I’d love to be on one,) podcasting in general (both listening and creating.) but also politics and life.

Think firing the entire federal workforce will save America money?

Federal civilian employees account for just 4% of the federal budget. Even if someone like Musk—or any president—fired all of us, it wouldn’t make much of a dent in government spending. Don’t fall for it.

I’m finally playing Breath of the Wild, and I’m so jealous of this little iPhone thing Link carries around.

It gives him superpowers? I turn on my iPhone and it just makes me depressed.

Truly fucking vile.
USAID’s website has been deleted, all that is left is a note saying all personnel are now on administrative leave and personnel outside the US are to be brought home. Completely illegal, no act of congress or even executive order was signed to dismantle the agency

Please be careful if you’re going to a 50501 protest tomorrow. Something doesn’t seem right about them. Typically with a large scale nationwide protest we’d know who (or what entity) was organizing, and we do not. I worry it could be a bad faith effort to get resistors in one place on a [1/?]

if I understand American politics correctly, progressivism is something that requires 60 senate votes to work, while national conservatism doesn’t require any votes at all

Senator Andy Kim just went to the USAID building, talked to the security guard there to confirm employees are being barred entry, and then did a press gaggle right there in front to call it out.

This is doing something. This is making an effort on messaging. Other Democratic lawmakers: take notes.

USAID.gov is down. Why is this concerning? Trump has no legal authority to eliminate a congressionally funded independent agency. The work of USAID is vital, and if this can happen to them, it can happen to any of us.
