I am bad at asking for assistance when I need it, and my therapist wants me to work on it. So I'm asking for help.
I can't fill my prescriptions or buy groceries this month with less than $100 after bills. Any help is appreciated. Zelle & PayPal below.

To be fair, Neal wrote "The Baroque Cycle" longhand after a computer backup disaster ate the first five hundred pages or so.

Then he transcribed it himself in EMACS and formatted it for submission using a homebrew set of Elisp macros he wrote—

Yeah nope, that's just deranged.

The Trump admin in a nutshell; in order to justify their own mistake, they’re going to release a violent felon with five deportations so he can testify against the guy with no criminal record they mistakenly deported.

In other words, the story is always more important than the principle.
The Trump admin has freed Jose Hernandez Reyes because he can testify against Abrego Garcia.

Hernandez, who has been deported 5 times, has also been arrested for:

—DUI w/ a handgun;
—cocaine possession;
—illegally transporting migrants; and
—drunkenly firing a gun.

Star witness against Kilmar Abrego García was due to be deported. Now he’s being freed.
Jose Ramon Hernandez Reyes is a three-time felon released early from federal prison to a halfway house in exchange for testifying against Kilmar Abrego García.

A lot of politics today boils down to whether you think Rosa Parks, Harvey Milk, and other historical figures who did things along those lines are heroes or not.

There are only three political positions in America today

1) I like the fascism

2) I'll acquiesce to the fascism (reasons for this one vary: cowardice, access, denial, misguidedly thinking that acquiescence is savvy, etc)

3) I oppose the fascism

The rest is details

I mentioned earlier that they chew on Nile Crocodiles - I wasn't kidding, baby Hippos use them as teething rings since the texture of their scales is satisfying to gum.

Hey #ttrpg folks. For those that haven't met me, which is a lot of you, my new thing has 24hrs left to make 1 million dollars. For every hour that goal is not met, I will eat a full book, spine and all. This will not kill me--it will make me stronger than ever before.

Do your part. Stop me now!!
