Thank you again @oddthesungod.bsky.social for the beaaaautiful art. Our final finale session was incredible. 😎 Over two sessions, I believe it maybe took....8hours total?

Much appreciated this during my final recitation of their ballad.
#dungeonsanddragons #callofthenetherdeep #criticalrole #dnd
Ballad that goes as follows: Have you heard the Vagabombs' Ballad? Of the world they've seen, and their journey's end? Such a tale too, that leaves their fans avid No? Then gather round the fire, friend It comes to me now, in secrets and song Of their derring-do, and justice done Known too as Prayer Bearers, for whom they now walk among They struck down fierce enemies, fearing not a one Feel the words of a fierce healer, A fighter and namer of things See the dance of the sweet mage, And the lance of magic she flings Speak of the legend of the Flamesworn, Protector and Knight, an ideal reborn See the sharp-eyed daredevil herein And tary not at his Grin Hear the bang of a Trickster's sword, And laugh along with their words See the might of the Prayer Bearers And know the Vagabombs in truth, with no despairers Know well my friend, That you'd do well to avoid their hand in your end The journey was one shared, and danger dared, But it was begun, not as one, but altogether when the Red Moon Flared Hear the Vagabombs' Ballad true, See the journey through Know the secret, and the song, Know whom we walk among Image of a computer showing a background of a DND party; which includes a swashbuckler looking male Genasi rogue, a female purple tiefling that's a Moonweaver based cleric, a rune knight fighter male dragonborn, a female human wizard, and a changeling wild magic barbarian looking like a jester. They all carry weapons or magic items with distinct detail

Everybody romanticizing about the heyday of American manufacturing needs to carefully listen to one (1) Bruce Springsteen song.

Things still terrible, but: Viktor Orban was unable to stop protests in Budapest; Musk's money couldn't win the Wisconsin Supreme Court for Repugs; Marine Lepen is fuming over her court loss in Paris; and Corey Booker made a bravura stand against Trump in the Senate. More days like this please.

Thank you Senator Cory Booker. This guy truly cares about the people he represents.

Casar: You can quickly explain Doge with just two numbers.

First: $8 million a day. That’s how much Elon Musk collects in federal government contracts.

Second: $65 a day. That’s how much the average senior—someone who has worked their entire life—gets from Social Security.…

As Trump tries to dismantle the Department of Education, remember that his plan to cut the corporate tax rate to 15% would give the 100 largest corporations a tax cut larger than the entire department's K-12 budget.

Really think about how twisted this all is.

#EconomicBlackout
No Amazon. No Walmart. No Target. No Disney. No Google. No Apple. No Visa or Mastercard. And especially no Facebook or Twitter. Buy essentials such as medicine, food, and emergency supplies, of course, but make those purchases at small, local businesses and use cash. The purpose of today’s economic blackout is to send a clear message: We have the power.

Indivisible is urging people to visit their senators' local offices between now and Thursday to demand that they use every tool—including denying a quorum and blocking unanimous consent—to fight the confirmation of Project 2025 architect Russell Vought for head of OMB docs.google.com/document/d/1...
THE ASK This week, between Monday and the vote on Vought, we're asking people from all over the country to plan a visit to Senate State Offices to demand Democrats fight and to hold Republicans accountable for their complicity. DEMOCRATS MUST USE EVERY PROCEDURAL TOOL TO SHUT DOWN TRUMP'S AGENDA Yes, we need Democrats to vote no on Vought's nomination, but no is not enough. Democrats have the power to grind Senate business to a halt and force Republicans to feel the political cost of backing Trump's extremist agenda. Here's how: 1. Deny a Quorum: If Republicans don't have 51 votes in the chamber, Democrats can walk out and shut down Senate business entirely. 2. Block Unanimous Consent: Object to every procedural shortcut, forcing Republicans to take the longest possible route for every step of the confirmation process. 3. Max Out Debate Time: Use all 30 hours of debate on Vought to expose Project 2025, Musk's Treasury takeover, and the funding freeze. 4. Delay and Disrupt: Force roll-call votes, quorum calls, and procedural delays to slow everything down. 5. Blanket Opposition: Democrats cannot continue to vote for Trump's other nominees, helping to install more MAGA loyalists into powerful positions in the federal government while this power grab continues. No Business as Usual: This is a constitutional crisis. Democrats must abandon the old rules and fight with everything they have. Bottom line: Senate Democrats must block, delay, and obstruct every step of this process-no cooperation, no easy votes, no fast-tracking Trump's takeover. To learn more about how Senate Democrats can shut down Trump's agenda with procedural hardball, check out our explainer here.

I can think of at least eight federal laws that have been broken by Musk and his goons over the last few days, and at least two provisions of the U.S. Constitution.

They must be stopped.
